Locksmith’s guide to Commercial Locks
When it comes to keeping commercial properties secure - office buildings, schools, hospitals - you don’t settle. The Commercial Locks collection at Keyless City features Grade 2 and Grade 1 mortise cylinders, lever handles, deadbolts, and complete lock bodies built for durability and high-traffic environments. These aren't lightweight residential parts; they’re engineered for frequent use, reliable performance, and easy rekeying. Whether you're rekeying apartments, outfitting storefronts, or upgrading to heavy-duty hardware, this collection has the cylinders and locksets that'll perform run after run.Collection Overview: Cylinders & Door Hardware
This collection includes:
- Premium Thumb-Turn Mortise Cylinders (1″ & 1 1/8″, Satin Chrome) – ideal for storeroom applications, adjustable cams included, keyed-alike options.
- Secure-Function Mortise Cylinders – keyed locks for external doors, satin chrome, various backsets.
- Premium Rim & Key‑in‑Knob (KIK) Cylinders from Schlage and Kwikset – commercial-grade replacements for knob or lever locksets.
- ILCO Mortise Lock Body & Deadbolt Units – Grade 1 hook-bolt design, ANSI tested for high-security use.
-
Storeroom Commercial Lever Set Handle (ANSI F84) – rigid, non-handed lever, UL 3-hour fire rated, keyed-alike options up to 10 cylinders.
Featured Products in Detail
- Premium Thumb-Turn Mortise Cylinder – 1″ (26D Satin Chrome): This non-keyed, thumb-turn cylinder accepts both Adams‑Rite and Yale cams, built to OEM-level standards. With a lifetime mechanical warranty and satin-chrome finish, it’s ideal for classroom, restroom, or service room doors that require secure but simple access.

Keyed-alike functionality supports up to 10 cylinders per keying group.
Why These Commercial Locks Stand Out
- Durable Build Quality: Grade 2/1 rating, ANSI/BHMA certified, built to handle millions of cycles.
- Modular Flexibility: Cylinders available in thumb-turn, KIK, or rim config for easy rekeying and lock core swaps.
- Fire & Safety Certified: Lever handle UL-rated for 3-hour fire doors; ideal for schools, hospitals, and commercial buildings.
