Why Using Von Duprin Locks
Von Duprin is a leading name in exit devices, panic bars, and commercial door hardware. Known for their durability, safety compliance, and modular design, these locks are essential in schools, hospitals, churches, and office buildings with emergency egress requirements.
Von Duprin devices are UL-listed and ANSI/BHMA certified. They’re engineered to withstand heavy use while allowing rapid exit during emergencies. They also support electric latch retraction, delayed egress, and remote lockdown functionality.
Whether you're installing a basic push bar or a fully integrated access control system, Von Duprin offers unmatched performance in life safety and commercial exit security.
At Lock Change Allen, we install, service, and retrofit Von Duprin hardware for code compliance and security upgrades.
Von Duprin Lock Rekey
Many Von Duprin exit devices use interchangeable or removable core cylinders. Rekeying them is critical during staff turnover, lost keys, or commercial tenant changes. We rekey trim cylinders, mortise cylinders, and rim cylinders used with Von Duprin devices.
Our locksmiths carry tools and keyways for Schlage, Best, Falcon, and other compatible cores. We can rekey a single door or reconfigure your entire master key system on-site.
Rekeying typically ranges between $49–$89 per cylinder, depending on the trim type and hardware setup.
Smart Locks
Von Duprin offers electronic locking and access control options through electrified panic devices and accessories like the QEL (Quiet Electric Latch) and CHEXIT delayed egress system. These allow integration with building management systems, badge readers, keypads, and mobile credentials.
We install Von Duprin electrified latch retraction kits, power transfers, exit alarms, and low-voltage power supplies. These smart features support remote lockdown, fire alarm interface, and access credential control.
If your facility requires enhanced access security and egress monitoring, Von Duprin’s electronic options offer enterprise-grade reliability and flexibility.
Do It Yourself VS Using Professional Locksmith
Installing or retrofitting Von Duprin hardware is not a DIY project. These devices must meet life safety codes, ADA standards, and be precisely aligned for proper operation. Incorrect installs may prevent the door from latching or invalidate your fire rating.
Our certified locksmiths handle all aspects of installation—including door prep, wiring for electrified models, and integration with access control systems. We also ensure your device is adjusted to operate quietly and smoothly.
All work is backed by our 6-month warranty on labor and Von Duprin hardware supplied by us.
