About the service
Professional Access Control Installation in Sherman Oaks
Most of our Sherman Oaks access control calls come from the small offices and medical suites along the Ventura corridor, plus the converted older buildings on the side streets where a brass key has been copied a dozen times over the years. The owner has no idea who still has one. That is usually the moment someone picks up the phone. You want to stop tracking keys and start controlling doors.
We fit keypads, card and fob readers, electric strikes, and maglocks, and we tie them into a system that keeps a record of who opened what and when. If a staffer leaves or a fob goes missing, you cut that credential without rekeying the whole place. After-hours schedules lock the front entry on their own. It is far less drama than chasing down a copied key in 91403.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Sherman Oaks
We start with a walk-through of your actual doors, because access control lives or dies on the hardware. A glass storefront door near the 101 needs a different latch and strike than a heavy fire-rated stairwell door in a multi-tenant building. We check the frame, the existing lock, whether the door is on the fire alarm, and where power and network can reach. Then we quote what fits, not a one-size kit.
Yes, we wire it. Strike or maglock, reader, power supply, request-to-exit, the run back to the controller. Doors that are part of the building's fire system get a release tied to the alarm, so they unlock on a pull, the way code requires. A simple two-door setup in Sherman Oaks is often a same-day or next-day job; larger multi-suite buildings we schedule and stage. We program the first credentials and show your staff how to add and revoke their own.

Common questions
FAQ
Keypad, card, or fob – which should we use?
Depends on traffic and who uses the door. A keypad is cheapest and fine for a back office or a door a few people share, but codes get passed around. Cards and fobs are better when you want each person tracked individually in the logs and the ability to kill one credential without touching the others. Plenty of Sherman Oaks suites run a keypad on an interior door and fobs on the main entry. We'll match it to how your space actually flows.
Does the system tie into the fire alarm?
It has to where code requires it. Any door that's part of the building's life-safety egress – common stairwell doors, certain exits in multi-tenant buildings off Ventura – gets a release wired to the fire alarm panel so the locks drop and the door opens when the alarm trips. On a standalone storefront that isn't on a building alarm, we use fail-safe or fail-secure hardware appropriate to that door. We sort out which applies during the survey.
Can you revoke a lost or stolen card?
That's the main reason people move off keys. If a fob walks out the door or an employee leaves, you delete that one credential in the system and it stops working immediately – no rekeying, no calling everyone in to swap keys. We set you up so a manager can do it themselves in under a minute, and the logs will show whether the missing card was used after you cut it.
Do you actually do the wiring, or just sell the parts?
We wire it. Reader, electric strike or maglock, power supply, request-to-exit, and the run back to the controller – all of it, done in-house. For a building near the 405 with a few doors, that's a tidy one-visit job in most cases. Larger sites with several suites we'll stage over scheduled visits so your business keeps running while we work. You get working, code-correct doors, not a box of hardware.
