How it works

The smart lock installation process

What to expect when you call Locks Around the Clock for smart lock installation.

  1. Step 1

    We match the lock to your door

    We check your door thickness, backset, and bore, then recommend a smart lock that fits, whether that is a Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, Yale Assure, or August retrofit.

  2. Step 2

    We install and align the hardware

    We mount the deadbolt, align the strike, and prep the door so the bolt throws cleanly. Proper alignment is what keeps a smart lock from grinding and draining batteries.

  3. Step 3

    We configure the smart features

    We pair the lock to Wi-Fi or its hub, set up the app, program user codes, and turn on auto-lock, so the keypad, remote access, and backup key all work before we leave.

  4. Step 4

    We walk you through it

    We show you how to add and delete codes, share access, and swap the battery, so you can manage the lock yourself with confidence.

Common questions

Smart Lock Installation: FAQs

Which smart locks do you install?

We install and configure the major brands, including Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, Yale Assure, August, and Google Nest compatible locks. If you already bought a lock, we can install and set it up. If not, we help you pick the right one.

Do smart locks hold up in the desert heat?

Quality electronic locks do, but heat is hard on batteries and cheap hardware. We install heat-tolerant models, mount them correctly so the bolt does not bind, and set battery reminders. Every smart lock we install keeps a physical key backup.

Can I still use a regular key with a smart lock?

Most of the models we install include a keyed cylinder as a backup, so a dead battery or phone never locks you out. We can also key that backup to match your other doors so you carry one key.

Will a smart lock work with my existing door?

Usually, yes. Most smart locks fit a standard deadbolt prep. We check your door thickness, backset, and bore before installing, and handle any prep the door needs for a clean, secure fit.

Can you connect the lock to my phone and Wi-Fi?

Yes. We pair the lock to your Wi-Fi or hub, set up the app, and program your user codes and auto-lock settings on-site, so remote lock, unlock, and access sharing all work before we leave.
