Strata & Condo Master

Strata council holds master for amenities, parkade, mailroom; each unit retains private change key. We coordinate directly with property management. Restricted keyway recommended.

How Master Key Systems Work

Master key systems engineer lock cylinders to share a common shear line at the master key's unique cut positions. A Whalley building manager carries one master that opens every door, while each tenant's individual change key opens only their unit. When staff change, you simply reissue the change key without rekeying. The hierarchy can layer four levels: grand master, master, sub-master, and individual change keys for properties up to 200 units.

What Is a Master Key System

How Master Key Systems Work in Surrey

Controlled Access. Simplified.

A master key system lets you operate multiple different locks with a single key, while each lock can also be opened by its own individual key. The result: a building manager in Surrey's Whalley can carry one key that opens every door on the property, while each tenant, staff member, or resident only has access to their own space.

The system works by engineering the lock cylinders to share a common shear line at the master key's unique cut positions. Every lock is individually keyed, but all accept the master. No rekeying is needed when staff change—you simply restrict which individual key gets issued.

For larger Surrey properties like strata towers in Brighouse, office complexes near Lansdowne, or schools in Newton, we design grand master key systems that layer multiple levels of access—individual keys, floor master keys, building master keys, and a single grand master key at the top of the hierarchy.

1

Grand Master Key

Opens every lock in the entire system. Issued only to the top-level authority—the building owner, facilities manager, or head of security. Ideal for large Surrey strata buildings or multi-building campuses.

2

Master Key

Opens all locks within a defined zone or floor. A floor supervisor, department head, or property manager carries this key to access their area without interfering with other zones.

Surrey Master Key System Questions

How much does a master key system cost in Surrey?

Standard master key systems run $40-$60 per cylinder ($800-$1,800 for a 20-door office). Grand master systems with multiple levels are $50-$90 per cylinder. Restricted keyways cost $80-$150 per cylinder for maximum key control.

Can you upgrade my existing locks to a master system?

Yes. We rekey existing Schlage, Yale, Mul-T-Lock, Best, Sargent, and Corbin Russwin cylinders into a new master architecture without replacing the lock body. Saves the cost of new hardware while restoring clean access control.

What is a restricted keyway and do I need one?

A restricted keyway uses a patented profile that cannot be duplicated at hardware stores. Keys are only cut by us with your written authorization. Recommended for Surrey schools in Newton, strata buildings in Whalley, and medical offices where unauthorized copies are a real risk.

How long does installation take?

A 20-door standard master key system installs in 1 day on-site. A 100-door grand master system with multiple levels typically takes 3-5 days. We coordinate around business hours so your operations stay running.
