Locks that don't work, keys that go missing, doors that won't close - when you run a business, small things turn into big problems fast. At UTS Locksmith St Paul, we help local businesses stay secure, stay open, and stay one step ahead. From rekeys to full commercial lock replacement, we do it all - and we do it right the first time.
We've worked with coffee shops, salons, auto garages, property managers, dental clinics, warehouses, and everything in between. Whether you need a door fixed by morning or a long-overdue security upgrade, we're ready when you are.
We had a shop owner downtown call us at 9:45pm. Her back door lock had failed and wouldn't latch. She couldn't leave it like that overnight. We got there in 28 minutes, replaced the hardware, reinforced the frame, and gave her peace of mind. She's been calling us ever since.
Our techs carry commercial-grade locks, door hardware, panic bars, and closers in the van. That means faster fixes and fewer interruptions. Because no one wants to delay business over a busted door.
Here's one we hear a lot: "An employee left and never returned their key". Whether it ended badly or not, it's risky to leave that access floating around. We rekey offices, storefronts, warehouses, and medical suites all over St Paul. It's fast, affordable, and way smarter than hoping for the best.
One dentist in Midway had five staff changes in a year. We put her on a master key system with restricted keyways - no unauthorized copies, no surprises. Every employee got the access they needed, nothing more.
Juggling a dozen keys? We can fix that. A properly designed master key system gives you top-level access while limiting what each employee or tenant can open. One key to rule it all, but with clear boundaries in place.
We built one for a property manager in Frogtown with 12 rental units. One master key for her, unique keys for each tenant. Easy to control, easy to rekey between tenants, and no more boxes full of unmarked keys.
Not all locks are built for commercial use. We've seen plenty of businesses try to make do with hardware store locks meant for homes. Eventually, they fail. We install commercial-grade deadbolts, lever locks, mortise locks, and keyless systems that hold up to real-world traffic and abuse.
If your business door has a lock that sticks, feels loose, or takes too much effort to turn - it's time to upgrade. We'll walk you through the best options and install it properly, no shortcuts.
Need to meet code? We install and repair panic bars, door closers, push paddles, and lever handles that satisfy ADA requirements. That means safer exits, smoother access, and no surprises during inspections.
We helped a yoga studio in West 7th that got flagged for a door that wouldn't close properly. We replaced the closer, adjusted the frame, and got them back in compliance - all before their next class started.
Need more control than just keys? We install access control systems for small businesses and multi-tenant properties. Card readers, keypad locks, audit trails - we'll help you choose the right system without overspending.
One warehouse in St Paul had deliveries at all hours and too many keys floating around. We set them up with keypad entry and time-based access for staff. They haven't lost a key since, and management can update codes anytime from their phone.
Most areas are. But we see break-ins, attempted pries, and theft calls regularly. Sometimes all it takes is one weak back door or an old lock that never quite latched right. Don't wait for something to happen. We offer commercial security walkthroughs and practical fixes that don't require a full overhaul.
One bar in the North End called us after a crowbar left their service door hanging off the frame. We reinforced it with a steel plate, upgraded their deadbolt, and added a camera. They haven't had an issue since.
You're in the right place. UTS Locksmith St Paul is trusted by local business owners because we show up, speak clearly, and solve problems. No fluff. No ghosting. Just real commercial locksmith service you can count on.
Early open? Late close? Weekend service? We adjust to your schedule, not the other way around. Whether it's a lockout, a fresh install, or just advice on how to better secure your space - call us. We'll take care of it. That's how St Paul businesses roll. And so do we.
