Repair for access-controlled & buzzer-entry doors
When an access-controlled door fails, it fails in one of two bad ways: it won't let residents and staff in, or it won't lock and anyone can walk in. For a condo lobby, apartment entrance or office suite, either one is urgent - it's a security and access problem at your most-used door.
We repair the hardware that controls the door: electric strikes, magnetic locks, keypads, fob and card readers, buzzer and intercom release, request-to-exit sensors, door position switches and power supplies. We get the door releasing on command and re-locking securely, and we tie the release back to your buzzer or intercom. We work on the door hardware and wiring at the opening - complementing your alarm or access-system provider. Related: electric strike repair and magnetic lock repair.
We repair the door hardware and its wiring at the opening. If your system needs programming from your access-control provider we'll tell you exactly what's the door and what's the software.
Access control problems we fix
Most access-door calls come down to one of these - all repairable, and we prioritize anything that leaves a door unsecured.
Won't release on buzz
A failed electric strike, power supply or wiring fault means the buzzer clicks but the door won't open. We trace the release circuit and repair the strike or supply.
Maglock won't hold or release
Magnetic locks fail to hold (door not secure) or fail to release (people trapped). We repair or replace the maglock, armature and controls, and verify safe egress.
Keypad / reader dead
Worn or failed keypads and fob/card readers stop valid users getting in. We repair or replace the reader and its wiring at the door.
Strike buzzing, not releasing
A strike that buzzes but won't let the door open is usually binding, misaligned or under-powered. We re-align the strike and correct the power.
Held-open / won't lock
A door that won't re-lock or throws a held-open alarm is a security risk. We repair the closer, strike, sensor or maglock so it secures every time.
REX & egress faults
Request-to-exit sensors and exit buttons must release the door to let people out. We repair REX devices and exit hardware so egress is safe and code-compliant.
We also repair the closer, hinges and alignment that access hardware depends on, and coordinate with your access-control or alarm provider when programming is involved.

Access control door repair FAQ
The buzzer clicks but the door won't open - can you fix it?
Yes. That is usually a failed electric strike, a power-supply problem or a wiring fault in the release circuit. We trace the circuit at the door, repair or replace the strike or supply, and confirm the door releases reliably when buzzed.
Our maglock won't release - is that dangerous?
It can be, because people must be able to exit. We treat maglock release faults as urgent: we repair or replace the maglock and its controls, verify the request-to-exit and fire release, and make sure egress is safe and code-compliant.
Do you repair keypads, fobs and card readers?
Yes - we repair and replace the reader hardware and wiring at the door (keypads, fob and card readers). If the problem is in the access-control software or a user database, we will identify that so your system provider can program it.
Can you make a door lock again if it stays unlocked?
Yes. A door that won't re-lock or throws a held-open alarm is a security risk. We repair the strike, maglock, closer or sensor so the door secures every time it closes.
Do you work with our existing access-control system?
Yes. We repair the physical door hardware and wiring at the opening and coordinate with your access-control or alarm company where programming is required, so nothing falls between the two of us.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency service?
Yes, across the GTA. If an entrance won't secure or won't let residents and staff in, we respond fast, make it safe, and complete the repair.
