Mobile Deadbolt Installation
We install many types of compatible deadbolt hardware, including:
- Single-cylinder deadbolts
- Double-cylinder deadbolts where appropriate
- Traditional keyed deadbolts
- Electronic deadbolts
- Keypad deadbolts
- Smart deadbolts
- Keyless-entry deadbolts
The appropriate hardware depends on the door, existing preparation, intended use, and installation requirements.
Adding a New Deadbolt
Want to add a deadbolt to a door that currently has only a knob or lever lock?
A completely new installation may require measuring and preparing both the door and frame.
The technician can evaluate:
- Door thickness
- Deadbolt height and position
- Backset
- Bore-hole requirements
- Door-edge preparation
- Bolt location
- Strike position
- Door and frame alignment
New preparation may require drilling when suitable for the door and selected hardware.
Replacing an Existing Deadbolt
If your door already has a deadbolt, replacement may be appropriate when the existing hardware is:
- Damaged
- Worn
- Loose
- Difficult to operate
- Corroded
- Outdated
- No longer reliable
When the existing door preparation is compatible, a replacement may be installed using the current openings.
Traditional Keyed Deadbolts
Traditional deadbolts remain a common option for residential exterior doors.
Depending on the door and application, options may include:
- Single-cylinder deadbolts
- Double-cylinder deadbolts where appropriate
- Keyed deadbolts
- Compatible matching hardware
The technician can evaluate the door and selected hardware before installation.
Keypad & Electronic Deadbolts
Want keyless everyday entry?
Compatible electronic deadbolts may provide features such as:
- PIN-code entry
- Multiple user codes
- Temporary access codes
- Auto-lock functions
- Physical key backup
- Keyless entry
Available features depend on the specific manufacturer and model.
Smart Deadbolt Installation
We also install many compatible smart deadbolts.
Depending on the product, features may include:
- Smartphone access
- Wi-Fi connectivity
- Bluetooth connectivity
- Remote functions
- Access notifications
- Temporary codes
- Activity history
App functionality, connectivity, subscriptions, hubs, and third-party integrations depend on the specific product and manufacturer.

Proper Deadbolt & Strike Alignment
Installing a new deadbolt is not only about attaching the hardware.
The bolt must properly align with the strike area in the door frame.
Poor alignment can cause:
- Difficulty locking the door
- Bolt resistance
- Deadbolt binding
- Electronic deadbolt motor problems
- Premature hardware wear
The technician can evaluate the door, bolt, and strike alignment during installation.
Separate door or frame problems may require additional work.
