Why Using Von Duprin Locks

Von Duprin, part of the Allegion family (alongside Schlage and Falcon), is the gold standard in exit devices and commercial door security. Their products are used in hospitals, government buildings, universities, and anywhere life safety is mission-critical.

Advantages:

• ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified exit devices built for durability and compliance
• Electric latch retraction and integration-ready hardware for access control
• Ideal for fire-rated and non-fire-rated doors
• High-quality trim options for exterior entry and keyed access

Disadvantages:

• Premium pricing compared to other exit devices
• Requires professional installation for code compliance and functionality

Von Duprin devices offer long-lasting reliability in demanding environments, especially when installed or serviced by trained professionals like Lock Change Austin.

Von Duprin Lock Rekey

While the push bar itself is keyless, Von Duprin exit devices often include keyed exterior trims or cylinders that control outside access. We rekey Von Duprin trims, including mortise and rim cylinder locks, and can integrate them into master key systems or reprogram electronic cores if applicable.

We carry compatible Schlage and Falcon keyway cylinders and can perform same-day rekeying, even for restricted key systems or interchangeable cores (IC).

Estimated cost: $35–$65 per keyed trim or cylinder, depending on hardware type, restricted key system, and number of locks to rekey.

Smart Locks

Von Duprin offers smart access capabilities through electric latch retraction (ELR) exit devices and integrations with access control systems. These are ideal for buildings requiring timed entry, badge readers, remote unlocking, and lockdown protocols.

Standard Smart Integrations: EL Series (Electric Latch Retraction) allows remote control of exit devices. Easily integrated with fire panels, keypads, and card readers.

Retrofit Smart Options: Retrofit kits are available to convert mechanical Von Duprin bars into electrified versions without replacing the entire unit — saving costs while upgrading security.

We install and maintain Von Duprin access control systems and partner products, including power transfers, relays, strikes, and credential programming — with complete diagnostics and compliance checks.

Do It Yourself VS Using Professional Locksmith

Von Duprin products are engineered for professional-grade installation, often involving door drilling, fire code considerations, and access control wiring. DIY approaches may void warranty or fail inspections.

DIY Pros: Minimal, possibly in light-use mechanical models with surface mounting templates.

DIY Cons: High risk of misaligned push bars, noncompliance with fire egress codes, and electrical integration errors.

Professional Pros: Code-compliant installation, electrical prep, access integration, and long-term reliability — all under warranty.

Professional Cons: Higher upfront cost — but essential for legal, safe, and lasting results in commercial environments.
