    If the lock that you already have in place is not compatible, then our locksmith will have to remove the lock you have and install a model that is compatible with the smart lock you wish to use. Once the correct deadbolt is in place, the next step in the smart lock installation process involves preparing the deadbolt for integration with your smart lock.

    Since most smart locks are not designed the same, this step is unique to every single one. This process involves mounting the smart lock onto the door and through the deadbolt. Our locksmith will make sure that they examine the instruction manual so that they are using the correct mounting plate so that your lock works efficiently.

    The next step involves the homeowner installing the required application for their lock on their smartphone, or giving the smart lock access to your home’s wireless network. This is to ensure that the homeowner is able to unlock their door from their phone and also gain remote access if it is an applicable feature of their smart lock
