Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

If there are other venues in which Jumma’ Salat is performed, then it is permissible to perform Jumma’ Salat in an office building that restricts entry due to security reasons.  Even if the only place in the locality that conducted Jumma’ was the office building, still too Jumma’ will be permissible as the premises is locked only due to security resasons and not to stop people from joining the Jumma’ Salat.

( و ) السابع : ( الإذن العام ) من الإمام ، وهو يحصل بفتح أبواب الجامع للواردين كافي فلا يضر غلق باب القلعة لعدو أو لعادة قديمة لأن الإذن العام مقرر لأهله وغلقه لمنع العدو لا المصلي ، نعم لو لم يغلق لكان أحسن كما في مجمع الأنهر معزيا لشرح عيون المذاهب قال : وهذا أولى مما في البحر والمنح فليحفظ …وفى الشامية: قلت : وينبغي أن يكون محل النزاع ما إذا كانت لا تقام إلا في محل واحد ، أما لو تعددت فلا لأنه لا يتحقق التفويت كما أفاده التعليل تأمل
