Glendale is an independent city about ten miles north of Downtown Los Angeles, set mainly against the Verdugo Mountains with a smaller portion in the San Fernando Valley; it borders Burbank on the west, Pasadena and Eagle Rock on the east and La Canada Flintridge, La Crescenta and Tujunga on the north. Downtown's retail core is the Brand Boulevard area, home to the Glendale Galleria (1976) and the mixed-use Americana at Brand (2008). San Fernando Road has long carried industrial uses. In the 1980s many single-family homes in south Glendale were replaced by apartments and condominiums. The Glendale Freeway (CA-2), Ventura Freeway (CA-134) and I-5 serve the city.

Each of these has its own Glendale page with what is included, what to have ready and the questions people ask about that job.

1. Call (888) 492-0666 with the business name, address and suite. Say what is failing or what you want changed, and how many doors are involved.
2. The dispatcher confirms who is authorizing the work. The business owner, a manager on record or the property manager; tenants in leased space may need the landlord's permission for exterior doors.
3. The technician assesses the door, frame and hardware. That includes whether a door is a required exit, fire-rated or on an alarm or access-control circuit.
4. You get a written quote, per door where it is multi-door work. Nothing is drilled, swapped or wired before you approve it.
5. The work is installed and tested from both sides. Exit devices are checked for free egress, closers for full latch, and key systems against a keying chart.
6. You receive the receipt and any key-control records. For master key or restricted systems that includes the chart of which keys open which doors.

Commercial doors are built around duty cycle, code requirements and key control rather than looks.

• Grade 1 cylindrical and mortise levers for office and storefront doors.
• Storefront hardware: aluminum-door deadlatches, hookbolts and pivots of the Adams Rite type.
• Exit devices (panic bars) and fire-rated hardware on required egress doors.
• Door closers, which decide whether a door actually latches behind people.
• Electric strikes, maglocks and electrified levers tied to keypads, readers or an access-control panel.
• Interchangeable cores (SFIC and LFIC) and restricted keyways so a lost key can be swapped out in minutes and keys cannot be copied without authorization.
• Brands you will commonly see include Schlage, Sargent, Yale, Von Duprin, Adams Rite, Best, Medeco, LCN and Norton.
