The End of "Drill-and-Damage" Storefront Security: Why 64 Million Adams Rite Locks Need This Upgrade

The End of "Drill-and-Damage" Storefront Security: Why 64 Million Adams Rite Locks Need This Upgrade

   For decades, the Adams Rite MS1850S has been the backbone of American storefronts ]. But for the modern business owner, it’s a relic that forces a difficult choice: stick with messy physical keys or drill permanent, ugly holes in your expensive aluminum door to add a keypad.

As you can see in the video, we’ve engineered a third option. Our SK11 isn't just another lock; it's a patented Axial Fixation (Sandwich) System designed specifically for the 64-million-unit replacement market .

Why this is the ultimate upgrade for your business:

  • Zero Drilling, Zero Damage: It uses the existing 1.26" cylinder hole to bolt the interior and exterior plates together through the lock body . Your door integrity remains 100% intact.

  • 5-Minute DIY Installation: If you can use a screwdriver, you can install this lock . It directly replaces the MS1850S with 31/32" or 1-1/8" backsets .

  • Purely Mechanical Reliability: No batteries to die in the winter and no electronics to hack . It offers bank-vault security that works every time.

  • Owner-Centric Management: Stop rushing to the shop at 6 AM because a manager is on leave. Staff can lock up with a simple twist—no keys or codes required to secure the shop on their way out .
