How it works
Assess the door and lock prep
We check door thickness, backset measurements, and existing strike plate to confirm the new lock will fit and throw cleanly.
Install and align
We remove the old deadbolt, mount the smart lock, and adjust the strike plate so the bolt seats without any sticking or force.
Connect and program
We link the lock to your app or hub, program access codes, and walk you through adding or removing users going forward.
Problems we fix
- Door not level or warped, causing the bolt to bind
- Older door prep does not match the new lock's backset
- Weak Wi-Fi near the front door leading to connection drops
- Incompatible smart home hub requiring a bridge or adapter
Smart Lock Installation in Charleston — FAQ
Will any smart lock fit my existing door?
Most standard deadbolt holes accept common smart locks, but we check door thickness and backset before ordering. If your door needs minor prep work, we handle it on the spot.
Can I still use a physical key as a backup?
Many smart locks include a key cylinder backup. We will confirm your chosen model's options and make sure you are not locked out if the battery or Wi-Fi goes down.
How do I add a code for a house cleaner or contractor?
We show you exactly how to create and delete codes in the app during setup, so you can manage access yourself after we leave.
What happens if the battery dies?
Most smart locks alert you in the app well before the battery runs out. If it does die, a physical key override or a 9V battery jump on the terminal gets you back in.
Smart Lock Installation across Charleston
Charleston's humid subtropical climate, salt air and active storm season are tough on homes — swollen doors, rusting hardware, mildew-prone caulk and storm-loosened trim are all common. Downtown's historic houses add original plaster walls and tight, detailed millwork, while West Ashley and the islands bring newer builds with their own quirks. Our pros are comfortable with both.
