Codes instead of keys — installed so the door still closes right.
Supply and installation of keypad locks, smart deadbolts, and keyless entry hardware for homes, rentals, offices and short-term rentals, including code management and app setup.
Smart locks fail on installation far more often than on electronics: a keypad deadbolt needs a square bore, a properly aligned strike and a door that closes without pressure, or the motor will strain and the batteries will die in weeks. We set the door first, then the lock, then hand over the codes and the app already working.
The Importance of Expert Smart Lock Installation
Installing a smart lock, such as a keypad deadbolt, is more complex than a simple swap of hardware. The electronic components depend on precise mechanical function. A door that does not close properly, a misaligned strike plate, or an incorrectly bored square hole can cause the lock's motor to strain, leading to rapid battery depletion and premature failure.
Our technicians prioritize the physical condition of your door and frame. We ensure that the door closes smoothly without applying pressure before any smart lock installation begins. This careful approach guarantees the longevity and reliable performance of your new keyless entry system, whether it is a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth enabled electronic door lock.
Understanding the Cost of Your Keyless Entry System
The price of your keyless entry installation depends on several factors, starting at $129 for the installation service, in addition to our $49 service call. The specific smart lock or keypad door lock hardware you choose significantly influences the overall investment. Options range from basic keypad deadbolts to advanced Wi-Fi enabled smart locks with integrated cameras and remote access features.
Additional costs may arise if your existing door requires modifications, such as resizing boreholes or adjusting the strike plate for proper alignment, to accommodate the new electronic door lock. We provide a clear, upfront quote after assessing your needs, ensuring you understand all aspects of the cost before any work proceeds. Payments are accepted via cash, Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, Zelle, and Venmo.
Common Pitfalls to Avoid with Smart Lock Upgrades
Many issues with smart locks stem from improper initial installation rather than electronic defects. A common mistake is attempting a DIY installation on a door that has alignment issues or requires specific boring for the keypad mechanism. This can lead to frustration, frequent battery changes, and ultimately, an unreliable security system.
Another pitfall is selecting hardware that is not suited for your specific usage, such as using a residential-grade lock for a high-traffic rental property, or overlooking the need for a mechanical key override. Q 24/7 Lock Service, operating since 2009, ensures that your smart lock installation is done right the first time, preventing costly repairs or replacements later. We always consider non-destructive entry methods first for any service needs.

Keyless Entry & Smart Locks — questions
Still not sure? Call (888) 571-4443 — a real dispatcher will tell you what the job involves before anyone is sent out.
How long does a keyless entry installation typically take?
+
A standard keyless entry installation for a single door typically takes about 1 to 2 hours. This includes preparing the door, mounting the keypad door lock or smart deadbolt, ensuring proper alignment, and setting up user codes and any associated apps. Complex installations or those requiring significant door modifications may take longer to complete.
What happens if my smart lock's batteries die?
+
Most smart locks provide low battery warnings well in advance, usually through an app notification or a light indicator on the lock itself. If the batteries do die completely, nearly all smart locks include a mechanical key override, allowing you to open the door with a traditional key. You will always have a way to access your property.
Can I integrate a new smart lock with my existing smart home system?
+
Many smart locks are designed to integrate with popular smart home platforms like Amazon Alexa, Google Home, or Apple HomeKit. During your smart lock installation, our technician can help set up this integration, provided your chosen electronic door lock is compatible with your existing system. We ensure your Wi-Fi and Bluetooth locks are fully functional.
Is a keyless entry system more secure than a traditional lock?
+
When professionally installed and properly managed, a keyless entry system can offer enhanced security. Features like per-user codes, activity logs, and remote locking/unlocking capabilities add layers of control not available with traditional mechanical locks. Our keyless entry installation focuses on maximizing both convenience and security for your property.
What types of keyless entry hardware do you install?
+
Q 24/7 Lock Service installs a wide range of keyless entry hardware. This includes basic keypad door locks, advanced smart deadbolts, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled electronic door locks, and systems designed for homes, rentals, and offices. We can also retrofit these systems onto most existing doors, providing a seamless upgrade.
What is the typical arrival time for a keyless entry service?
+
Keyless entry and smart lock installations are typically scheduled appointments rather than emergency dispatches. You can call our live dispatcher at (888) 571-4443 to arrange a convenient time for your service. We operate 24 hours Sunday-Thursday and Saturday, and Friday from 9:00 AM - 5:30 PM.
