How does a master key system work?

A master key system uses specially pinned lock cylinders that can be opened by two different keys: an individual change key for that specific lock, and a master key that opens multiple locks. The system is carefully designed so different master keys open different groups of locks, creating a hierarchy of access control.

Can I add locks to an existing master key system?

Yes, if your master key system was properly documented during installation, we can add new locks by ordering cylinders keyed to your existing schedule. This is why proper documentation is crucial when installing a master key system.

What happens if I lose a master key?

If a master key is lost, the affected locks should be rekeyed to a new keying schedule for security. With proper system documentation, we can rekey only the necessary cylinders and issue new master keys. High-security systems with key control make this process more manageable.

How much does a master key system cost?

Master key system costs typically range from $150-$400 per door depending on cylinder type, plus a design fee for creating the keying schedule. Systems using high-security cylinders cost more but provide better long-term security and key control. We provide detailed quotes after assessing your facility.
