Written by John Cantanese | Sep 23, 2024 1:00:00 PM

Repairing or changing locks may seem like a simple maintenance issue, but if your business needs frequent lock changes, managing it reactively can become a tedious chore that keeps your employees from focusing on more important business goals. This is where a proactive locksmith program can pay off.  

Trust Chain Store Maintenance for
Reliable, Immediate Commercial Property Services

Chain Store Maintenance – an MCS company, provides commercial properties with professional locksmith and direct-buy lock services, and we can create a custom program for your business too. Consider these advantages of a proactive locksmith program and whether it might benefit your organization.  

Why Have a Proactive Commercial Locksmith Program with CSM?

A customized locksmith program with Chain Store Maintenance can take the legwork (and guesswork) out of frequent lock changes. The biggest benefits include:   

Convenience  

Not having to find and hire a contractor for every lock change makes life easier for everyone. With a national locksmith program from Chain Store Maintenance, you simply let us know your lock specs and then we’ll source the locks you need, negotiate the price, warehouse them at our facility and ensure they’ll always be available when needed.  

Value 

Because CSM purchases and warehouses locks (including Trilogy, Guilford, Best Lock and Detex) in large quantities, we’re able to negotiate a lower cost per unit and share the savings with you, our client partners, rather than paying for whatever lock a local locksmith was able to procure individually at a price that’s not preset and with their markup.  

Consistency  

Having CSM manage your locksmith services means you can rest assured knowing you’ll have the same reliable, consistent equipment and services across all your locations which makes it easier to manage.  

Experience 

Managing locksmith services is second nature for CSM. We complete over 6,000 locksmith work orders in an average year.  

Versatility  

With CSM, you can create a standalone locksmith program or bundle it with other maintenance services. This same direct-buy model can also be applied to other items your business may need to purchase regularly.

Large, multi-facility organizations that tend to need frequent lock changes will obviously benefit the most. These might include retailers and restaurants with regular turnover/new management and apartment complexes.
