Charleston & Summerville, SC
Sliding, swing, and low-energy automatic doors that open when they should and stop when someone's in the way. Charleston Locksmith installs, repairs, and tunes commercial automatic door systems - licensed, insured, and family-run.
We're a licensed and insured locksmith team serving Charleston, Summerville, and the surrounding Lowcountry. Automatic door work sits between locksmithing and door hardware - exactly where our experience lives.
Every visit is covered and code-aware. We know Charleston's coastal humidity chews through sensors and gears, and we service accordingly.
You get the same trained technicians on install day and every service call after - no rotating subcontractors guessing at your system.
BBB accredited and ALOA members, with Mul-T-Lock and Lockly certifications backing the locking hardware paired to your automatic doors.
We diagnose the operator, sensors, and safety beams before quoting - so you pay for the actual fix, not a rip-and-replace.
Sliding entrances, swing operators, revolving doors, and low-energy ADA openers for offices, retail, medical, and warehouse spaces.
New sliding or swing operators sized to your door weight and daily traffic, wired with safety sensors and set to the correct open/hold/close timing.
Doors that won't open, slam shut, reverse randomly, or ghost-trigger - we chase it to the sensor, motor, belt, or control board.
Motion and presence sensor alignment, safety beam replacement, and anti-entrapment adjustments to keep doors AAADM-compliant.
Worn gears, tired belts, and failing motors replaced so a functioning door frame doesn't get scrapped over one component.
Pair automatic doors with card readers, keypads, and Mul-T-Lock/Lockly hardware so entries lock, log, and open on schedule.
Scheduled tune-ups - lubrication, sensor testing, tension checks - to catch failures before your busiest hour turns into a jammed doorway.
Tell us the door type, symptom, and location. We'll confirm parts likely needed and book a window that fits your business hours.
We test the operator, sensors, safety beams, and locking hardware, then give you a clear free estimate before any work starts.
Approved work is done on the spot when parts are on the truck. Larger operator swaps are scheduled fast, often same-week.
We cycle the door, verify open/hold/close timing and entrapment protection, and walk you through what changed.
Most emergency automatic-door calls in Charleston start as ignored warning signs. Watch for these three:
Book a maintenance visit when you first notice any of these and you'll almost always avoid an after-hours breakdown.
Accountable, reviewed, and standing behind our commercial door work.
Active members of the Associated Locksmiths of America.
Certified on high-security locking hardware for automated entries.
Trained on smart locks that integrate with access-controlled doors.
Fully covered work across Charleston and Summerville.
We don't leave until the door cycles safely and correctly.

"Our storefront slider stuck open on a Friday. Kadosh's crew had it diagnosed and running before the weekend rush. Straightforward pricing, no upsell."
- Retail manager, King Street, Charleston
★★★★★
"They rebuilt the operator on our clinic's ADA door instead of pushing a full replacement. Saved us real money and it opens smoother than before."
- Practice administrator, Summerville
★★★★★

Yes - sliding automatic entrances, swing-door operators, low-energy ADA openers, and revolving doors for retail, medical, office, and warehouse settings. We service the operator, sensors, safety beams, tracks, and the locking hardware paired to them.
Our estimates are free. We diagnose the actual fault on-site and give you a clear price before any work begins, so you're never surprised by the invoice.
It can be. Close timing and hold-open times are safety settings. A door closing too quickly can strike or trap someone and often signals a control or sensor issue. We adjust timing and verify anti-entrapment protection on every visit.
Yes. As Mul-T-Lock and Lockly certified locksmiths, we integrate card readers, keypads, and smart locks so your automatic door can auto-lock, open on schedule, and log access - all wired to the door's operator.
For high-traffic commercial doors we recommend service at least twice a year - and more often near the coast, where salt air and humidity wear sensors and gears faster. Regular tune-ups prevent most emergency breakdowns.
Serving Charleston, Summerville, and the surrounding Lowcountry. Licensed, insured, and family-run.
