Diagnostic Lock Installation for Greenville Property Owners
No Deadbolt—Just a Flimsy Knob Lock
That doorknob lock? A teenager with a credit card can bypass it. A proper deadbolt adds real security. If your entry door doesn't have one, you're not as protected as you think.
Locks Are Old, Worn, or Damaged
If your lock sticks, wiggles, or feels loose in the door, it's a security risk AND an eventual lockout waiting to happen. Replacement now prevents problems later.
New Door Needs Proper Locks
Installed a new exterior door or renovated an entryway? It needs professional lock installation to function correctly and provide real security—not just a lock shoved in a pre-drilled hole.
Smart Lock Is Still in the Box
You bought an August, Yale, Schlage, or Kwikset smart lock months ago. The instructions looked complicated. It's still sitting there. We set it up properly so it actually works with your phone.
Need to Upgrade Security After a Break-In
Someone kicked in your door or picked your lock. Now you need serious hardware—high-security deadbolts, reinforced strike plates, pick-resistant cylinders. We know what actually stops break-ins.
High-End Estate Security
Greenville is home to some of Delaware's most valuable properties. Homeowners expect premium lock hardware, integrated security systems, and discreet, white-glove locksmith service.
Smart Home Integration

"Townhouse door was too thin for a standard deadbolt. Kwikey sourced a narrow-profile deadbolt that fit perfectly and provided the same security level. Problem-solving at its best."
"Upgraded our data center cages from standard padlocks to Abloy PL330 shrouded padlocks. Kwikey keyed them all to restricted blanks and set up the authorization card system."
"Lost my spare key months ago and finally got around to getting a replacement. Kwikey cut and coded a new one from my existing key in about 20 minutes at my house."
Common Lock Installation Questions in Greenville
What areas do you serve? expand_more
Our mobile service units provide professional coverage across New Castle County, Delaware, and the Greater Philadelphia region, including Chester and Delaware counties. Whether you are in Wilmington, Newark, West Chester, or Media, we bring our specialized equipment directly to your location.
Can I change locks if I'm renting? expand_more
Check your lease first—most landlords allow it if you provide them a copy of the new key. We recommend rekeying rather than replacing so you can give the old keys back when you move. Many landlords appreciate tenants who take security seriously.
Do you install smart locks? expand_more
Yes! We install and program smart locks from leading brands like Schlage, Yale, August, Kwikset, and more. We can help you choose the right smart lock for your needs.
Should I rekey or replace my locks? expand_more
Rekeying is a precision procedure that alters the internal logic of your lock cylinder, rendering old keys useless while maintaining your existing hardware. We recommend replacement only if your hardware is structurally compromised, mechanically fatigued, or if you require an upgrade to high-security or smart-locking platforms.
Where should I keep spare keys? expand_more
Never under the doormat, flowerpot, or fake rock—burglars check these first. Give a spare to a trusted neighbor instead. Smart locks eliminate this worry entirely. We can also install a secure key lockbox that requires a code.
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.
Premium Locksmith for Greenville, Delaware
Kwikey Locksmith provides high-end locksmith services to Greenville and the Brandywine Valley. From smart lock installations to high-security hardware for estate properties, our professional technicians deliver the premium service that Greenville homeowners expect.
Brandywine Valley Estate Security
Greenville sits in the heart of Delaware's most prestigious residential area. Our locksmiths understand the security needs of high-value properties — from Medeco deadbolts and smart access systems to gate locks and perimeter security. We deliver discreet, professional service throughout the Kennett Pike corridor.
Professional Lock Installation in Delaware & Pennsylvania
Whether you're upgrading worn-out hardware, adding deadbolts, or finally installing that smart lock you bought six months ago, Kwikey Locksmith provides professional lock installation throughout Delaware and Greater Philadelphia. We don't just stick a lock in a hole—we ensure proper alignment, solid strike plate installation, and smooth operation that provides real security.
We Install It Right the First Time
A great lock poorly installed is a security liability. Misaligned deadbolts don't fully engage. Loose strike plates can be kicked in. Smart locks with wrong positioning don't read correctly. Our technicians understand the details that make locks actually work—proper depth, correct backset, solid frame attachment. You get security that functions, not just hardware hanging in your door.
Which Lock Should You Choose?
The right lock depends on what you're protecting. For front doors, a Grade 1 or Grade 2 deadbolt provides serious resistance against forced entry. For interior doors, passage or privacy knobs are appropriate. For rental properties, consider smart locks with temporary access codes for tenants. And for maximum security, high-security brands like Medeco or Mul-T-Lock offer pick-resistant and bump-resistant protection that standard hardware simply can't match.
