Precision Lock Installation Deployment in Kennett Square

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.

Solving Lock Installation Queries for Kennett Square

How many keys do I get when you rekey my locks? expand_more

Standard rekeying includes 2 new keys per lock. Need more? We can cut additional copies on-site at a small per-key charge. If you have multiple locks, we can key them all alike so one key opens everything.

Do you bring hardware with you or do I need to purchase locks? expand_more

Our mobile units are stocked with a comprehensive inventory of Grade 1 and Grade 2 locks, deadbolts, and high-security hardware. While we carry components from industry-leading brands for same-day resolution, we can also source specialized hardware to meet your unique architectural or security requirements.

Do you come to my location or do I come to you? expand_more

We maintain a fully mobile fleet of professional locksmith laboratories. Each unit is equipped with precision machinery for on-site key cutting, diagnostic computers for automotive programming, and a comprehensive inventory of high-security hardware to resolve your request in a single visit.

How can I secure my sliding glass door? expand_more

Sliding doors are vulnerable points. We recommend a security bar in the track, anti-lift pins in the frame, and a sliding door lock that engages at multiple points. We install all of these and can assess your specific door.

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.

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.

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.
