University Student Housing
Newark has thousands of rental properties housing UD students. Landlords frequently need lock changes between tenants, and students often experience lockouts during late-night studying or after losing keys at campus events.
Apartment Complex Access
Large apartment communities near campus and throughout Newark require master key system management, unit rekeying, and prompt lockout support for residents.
Historic Downtown Buildings
Main Street's charming historic buildings often have older lock hardware that requires specialized expertise for repair, rekeying, and modern security upgrades.
Consultation & Hardware Selection
We assess your door, discuss your security needs and budget, and recommend the right deadbolt grade and brand for your situation.
Professional Installation
We bore the hole (if needed), install the deadbolt with proper alignment, and use 3-inch screws in the strike plate for maximum kick resistance.
Testing & Key Cutting
We test the deadbolt from both sides, verify smooth operation, and cut any additional keys you need.

Are smart locks as secure as traditional deadbolts? expand_more
Quality smart locks from brands like Schlage and Yale are just as secure mechanically as traditional locks. They add convenience features like remote access and activity logs. We recommend models with auto-lock and tamper alerts for maximum security.
Does lock installation require drilling new holes? expand_more
It depends on your door. If replacing an existing lock, usually no new holes are needed. For new installations, we drill precise holes that won't weaken your door. We also check that your door jamb is properly reinforced.
Are your locksmiths background checked? expand_more
Yes, every technician undergoes a thorough background check before joining our team. We also carry full insurance. You're trusting us with access to your home or business—we take that responsibility seriously.
Do smart locks need WiFi to work? expand_more
Not necessarily. Many smart locks work with Bluetooth for proximity unlocking. WiFi is only needed for remote access when you're away from home. We can recommend the right option based on your needs and existing tech setup.
Do I need to make an appointment or can you come now? expand_more
Both work! For emergencies, we prioritize your call. For scheduled work like lock installation or rekeying, we can book appointments that fit your schedule. Tell us your preference when you call.
Can you install smart locks on standard residential doors? expand_more
Yes, we specialize in retrofitting standard doors with modern smart locks. We can help you choose a compatible system that integrates with your home automation while ensuring the physical installation is secure and professional.
