Smart lock installation done right, the first time

Smart locks are one of the most-returned items at big-box stores. Not because they’re bad products, but because most of them get installed onto doors that aren’t ready for them. Tight strikes, swollen frames, deadbolts that bind on the strike plate, a motor-driven lock will fight all of those issues until the batteries die. Our smart-lock installs include the boring-but-essential prep work that keeps the lock smooth and reliable for years.

What our smart lock install actually includes

  • Door, strike, and frame inspection, we adjust before mounting the lock
  • Removal of the existing deadbolt without damaging finish
  • New smart lock installed and tested mechanically (manual deadbolt throw)
  • Wi-Fi, Z-Wave, Zigbee, or Matter setup and ecosystem pairing
  • Up to 10 user codes set up with you (housekeeper, dog walker, family)
  • Auto-lock timing, geofencing, and notifications configured
  • Battery-life walk-through and accessory recommendations

Brands and ecosystems we install most

Schlage Encode and Encode Plus, Yale Assure 2, August Wi-Fi, Kwikset Halo, Level Lock and Level Bolt, Aqara U100, Eufy Smart Lock, and select Lockly models. We install for Apple Home (HomeKit), Google Home, Amazon Alexa, SmartThings, Hubitat, Home Assistant, and Matter setups.

Honest, upfront quoting

We give you an honest quote on the call before we dispatch, including any cost difference between installing a lock you supply versus one we provide. If we’re replacing multiple locks at once, we discount the labor on the additional doors so you save by bundling.

Service Process

Our Smart Lock Installation Process

  1. 1

    Pick a model that fits your door

    We help match the right smart lock to your door thickness, backset, and ecosystem (Apple Home, Alexa, Google).

  2. 2

    Door prep

    Smart locks fail when the door isn’t aligned. We adjust strikes and gaps so the bolt throws cleanly.

  3. 3

    Installation

    We mount the lock, calibrate, and confirm motorized lock/unlock with no binding.

  4. 4

    App and codes

    We help you create user codes, auto-lock rules, and notifications, then walk you through battery care.

Locked out late at night with a sleeping toddler in the car. They picked up immediately, gave me a clear quote, and a tech was at my door very quickly. Lock opened with zero damage.

★★★★★

I needed Medeco cylinders installed across our home. The tech was knowledgeable, clean, and patient walking through the keying chart with me. Highly recommend.

Priya S. · Bethesda, MD
★★★★★

Rekeyed our condo the day we moved in. Showed up exactly on time, was respectful of the building, and finished promptly. Easiest move-in detail I checked off.

Marcus W. · Silver Spring, MD
★★★★★

Installed two Schlage Encode locks and helped me set up codes for my dog walker. Honest service and they didn’t try to sell me anything I didn’t need.

Jen K. · Gaithersburg, MD
★★★★★

Our small office had a key-control mess after a few staff turnovers. They built a new master system in a single afternoon and gave us proper documentation.

Alex T. · Germantown, MD
★★★★★

Discreet, professional, and very respectful of the property. Six exterior cylinders rekeyed in one visit and a new high-security front entry. Will use again.

FAQs

Smart Lock Installation, Common Questions

It depends on your phone ecosystem, door thickness, and whether you want full keypad keyless or a hybrid. Schlage Encode is our most-installed Wi-Fi lock for Apple Home and Alexa users. Yale Assure with Wi-Fi is our most-installed for August/Yale Access fans. Level Lock is the cleanest look but pricier. We talk you through it on the call before scheduling.
