About the service
Professional Access Control Installation in Malibu
If you run a gallery, a studio office, or a multi-unit property strung along Pacific Coast Highway, the key ring stops working pretty fast. Staff turn over, a fob walks off, a contractor never returns the spare, and suddenly nobody knows who can open what. That is the call we get most in the 90265 area: too many keys, no record of who came through, and no clean way to shut a door at night.
Access control swaps that mess for credentials you actually manage. We fit keypads, card and fob readers, electric strikes, and maglocks, then tie them to software that logs every entry and lets you set hours per person. Malibu adds its own wrinkles: salt air corrodes cheap hardware, and many buildings sit far from a quick crew. We spec parts that hold up here and we do the wiring.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Malibu
We start on site, not over the phone. Someone walks the property with you, checks each opening, the door material, the frame, and how power and network reach that point. A storefront facing the highway needs a different strike than a steel back door near the loading area, and a fire-rated door has rules of its own. You will get a flat quote before anything gets drilled.
On install day we mount the readers or keypads, run low-voltage wiring, set the electric strikes or maglocks, and program credentials, schedules, and any after-hours lockout. Fire-alarm release is handled where code calls for it so locked doors free up in an alarm. Because Malibu spreads thin along the coast, we schedule a real window and finish the job that visit when we can. Same-day service runs 24/7 at (818) 398-9391; larger multi-door wiring usually books a date.

Common questions
FAQ
Keypad, card, or fob – which should we use?
It depends on the door and who uses it. Keypads need no hardware in anyone's pocket, which suits a low-traffic back office or a vacation rental near the beach where guests rotate. Cards and fobs are faster for daily staff and give you a name on every entry log. Plenty of Malibu sites mix them: a keypad on the gate, fobs for the team. We sort that out during the walkthrough.
Does the system tie into the fire alarm?
Where code requires it, yes. Magnetic locks and certain electric strikes must release automatically when the fire alarm trips so people can get out and crews can get in. We wire that fail-safe release in during install and verify it. On doors that are not life-safety openings, the lock stays secured. We will tell you which is which for your specific building.
Can you revoke a lost card right away?
That is the main reason to move off keys. If a fob or card goes missing – dropped on the sand, left in a rental, taken by a former employee – you delete that single credential and it stops working instantly. No locksmith visit, no rekeying every door, no new keys cut for everyone else. The rest of your access keeps running untouched.
Do you do the wiring or just the locks?
We do the wiring. Access control is low-voltage cabling from each reader or lock back to the controller and power, plus the fire-alarm tie-in where needed. We run it, terminate it, and test it as part of the install, so you are not chasing a separate electrician to finish the job. Long cable runs in spread-out coastal properties get planned in the survey.
