Professional Mortise Lock Repair & Rekeying Services in North York, ON

A sticky mortise lock slows business and risks a lockout. Our technician diagnoses the fault at the door, then isolates the lock body and cylinder to confirm wear or misalignment. We pull the lever trim, faceplate, and cylinder for bench work. The shop truck carries pins, drivers, and replacement parts. Coastal humidity in North York can swell door edges, so we also check strike fit. The service list appears below:

Mortise Lock Cylinder Replacement in North York

Cylinders fail after years of key wear and internal pin scoring. The technician removes the lever rose and escutcheon, backs out the cylinder set screw, and slides the plug from the mortise case. A plug follower, key gauge, and pinning kit set the bitting to match your master key. We lubricate with graphite and reinstall, then test throw and retraction under load. The key turns smoothly and the latch seats on the strike with a clean click. This visit covers heavy duty mortise cylinder.

Mortise Lock Rekeying Service in North York

Lost keys or staff changes make old keys unsafe. The technician pulls the cylinder, decodes the current bitting, and replaces the top pins to a new key code. A micrometer checks key blank thickness for proper shoulder stop. We reset the tailpiece orientation, resecure the cylinder, and verify the latch bolt retracts with the new key. The door locks with a new key and rejects the old one. Heavy metal doors get the same rekey from our steel door repair crew.

Lever Handle and Spindle Repair in North York

Loose levers come from worn spindles or stripped set screws. The technician removes the lever, inspects the square spindle, and checks the cam inside the case for wobble. A torque driver and thread locker secure fresh set screws, and a new spindle replaces a rounded shaft. We adjust the return spring in the trim to restore lever tension. The lever sits tight and returns level after each use.

Mortise Lock Body Rebuild in North York

Inside the case, bent linkages and weak springs cause failed latching. The technician extracts the commercial lock body, opens the case on the bench, and inspects the hub, latch bolt, and deadbolt tail. A spring kit, needle-nose pliers, and a parts tray organize the rebuild while we replace worn components. We close and re-mount the case, then adjust backset and bevel. The latch projects fully and retracts without grind.

Strike Plate Alignment and Door Prep in North York

A shifted frame or swollen door misaligns the latch with the strike. The technician marks latch position with lipstick transfer, then loosens the strike and shims or mortises the pocket for a true fit. A sharp chisel and router plane clean the recess, and longer screws bite into the stud for strength. We confirm reveal and latch engagement under gentle pull. The door closes without shoulder pressure and the latch holds.

Storeroom Function Conversion in North York

Changing room use can require a new lock function. The technician identifies the current function, then reconfigures the cam and hub to a storeroom setup that stays locked on the exterior. A cam kit and manufacturer template guide the change without drilling new holes. We label the keys and verify free egress from inside. The exterior stays keyed at all times while the inside handle exits freely. Non-standard trim comes to our custom door repair bench for a matched cam kit.

Exit Device to Mortise Integration in North York

Pairing a mortise lock with a rim exit can fail if rods bind. The technician removes the cover, checks top rod throw, and aligns the latch with the strike keeper. A hex set and alignment bar set rod length and preload. We test with door closer sweep to confirm proper latch capture. The panic bar releases cleanly and the mortise latch resecures on closing.

Door Closer and Latch Coordination in North York

Doors that slam or stall keep the latch from setting. The technician checks closer mounting, then tunes sweep and latch speeds to match lock timing. A closer adjustment key and spring scale set force within code while protecting the lock. We tighten the arm shoe and confirm backcheck to prevent wind slam. The door closes under control and the latch sets every time.

Emergency Lockout Assistance in North York

Keys that break or go missing lock staff out during business. The technician uses non-destructive entry when possible by picking the cylinder or bypassing with a shove tool if the latch allows. A lock pick set, tension wrench, and reading light help manipulate pins without damage. We then rekey or replace the cylinder to restore controlled access. The door opens without harm and secures again under your new key.
