How do I know which smart lock to choose for my door?
So, you want to replace your door locks, get our professional smart door lock service. Choosing the right smart door locks for your new door is an extremely important process, and one that requires some time and thought. Most homeowners conduct their own research. They, also consult professional locksmiths to try and find which locks are the best fit for the doors they have.
We suggest that homeowners use ANSI (American National Standards Institute) Grade 1 Locks on the exterior doors of their homes. The grading is important because it gives you some insight into how strong your deadbolt is.
These locks should ideally be deadbolt locks because they are a much better security option. Grade 1 deadbolt locks should be able to withstand 250,000 cycles and 10 strikes against the door. Their counterparts, the doorknob locks, should also be able to withstand 800,000 cycles, 6 strikes against the door, and a weight test of 360 pounds.
We suggest Grade 1 locks because they offer more resistance to intruders and they have longer lifespans than other grade locks. If you need help trying to determine which locks will work for your door, and for other parts of your home, do not hesitate to give us a call so we can go over the options for your new lock installation.
Will installing a new lock damage my door?
If your new lock installation is carried out by a professional home locksmith, then there will be no damage caused to your door. Our locksmith will have to drill the necessary holes in your door so that they can continue with the new lock installation, but this should not damage your door.
It is important to make sure that your new lock installation is carried out by a professional because there are many parts of the installation process that could lead to a damaged door if it is not carried out properly. The only way your door will be damaged while a new lock is being installed is if a subpar locksmith is carrying out the task.
How long will the new lock installation take?
The time needed for a new smart door lock service varies. This is because the time is dependent on a few factors. First, it depends on what material your door is made out of (which the locksmith should be notified of in advance) because the time varies for installing a lock on a steel door as compared to a wooden door.
Most residential properties use wooden doors, but there are some exceptions. Secondly, the time will vary depending on whether or not the holes required for a new lock installation have already been drilled into your door. If they have not, it will take more time due to the fact that our locksmith will have to drill the necessary holes.
Also, the time might vary based on which locks the homeowner wants to install. Some homeowners might merely want to install a simple knob latch bolt lock, while some would prefer to install both a doorknob lock and a deadbolt to make their door as secure as possible. When done by a professional locksmith, your new lock installation should take no longer than 30 minutes.
Why do I need to go through a new lock installation process?
Homeowners should go through the new lock installation process because their homes are valuable assets and investments. As such they want to make sure that their homes are as secure as possible. Installing locks on new doors in your home is an essential part of making sure that your home is safe. Make sure that you discuss all your options with our locksmith so that you choose the right locks for the door you have. Proper locks will ensure that your security functions properly.
Lock Installation
Before our locksmith can even begin installing a new lock on your door, the most important part of this process needs to be carried out. That process is the choice of the right lock for your door. You may be wondering what exactly goes into choosing the right lock? Well, we’re about to break it down for you.
Installing Your New Lock
Once you have gotten the process of choosing the right lock out of the way, you can begin the new lock installation. Some doors will already have the necessary holes for the lock pre-drilled, but some won’t. To properly drill the holes you need for your lock, you have to know the size of the lock you are going to be using. That way you can take the appropriate steps to make sure that the holes you drill in the door are not just random sized holes.

Scheduled online and he showed up a bit early after calling ahead to make sure that was ok. Once here he took a look at the site inside & out, presented me a few options to be sure I would not be surprised at how the install would be done and he did the work quickly, efficiently, and safely. Would recommend and hire again if I have a need.
