Most popular smart locks are designed to retrofit onto standard door prep, so installation is usually simpler than people expect — no need to replace the whole door. We install keypad deadbolts, app-controlled locks, and models that integrate with existing home security or video doorbell systems, and we set up the app and codes with you before we leave, not just screw the hardware on and go.
The right choice depends on your door and priorities: a simple keypad deadbolt for keyless entry without an app dependency, a full app-controlled lock for remote access and guest codes, or a system that ties into an existing smart home setup. We'll talk through the real trade-offs rather than push whichever brand pays the best margin.
Most standard residential door prep (standard bore holes, standard deadbolt) accepts popular smart lock models directly. We confirm compatibility before you buy hardware, or supply a compatible model ourselves.
Nearly all smart locks run on batteries independent of home power, and most keep working locally (keypad code, physical key backup) even without Wi-Fi — only remote app features need internet.
Most smart deadbolts include a standard key cylinder as backup specifically for this reason — worth confirming for the model you're considering.
Both — we walk through app setup, your first codes, and guest access with you before finishing the job. A smart lock nobody knows how to actually use isn't a finished installation.
