Diagnostic Smart Lock Installation for Newark Property Owners
The DIY Smart Lock That's Still in the Box
You bought it six months ago. The instructions looked complicated. You're not sure if it fits your door. We get it—let us handle it. Installation, app setup, everything.
You're Still Hiding a Spare Key Under a Rock
Burglars check there first. Seriously. Smart locks let you give trusted people a code instead—and you can delete it when you want.
Dog Walker Needs Access But You're at Work
Racing home to let someone in is exhausting. With a smart lock, you create a time-limited code or unlock remotely. When they're done, access ends.
Airbnb/Rental Property Headaches
Keys get lost, duplicated, not returned. Smart locks let you set a code for each guest, auto-expire it at checkout, and never think about it again.
'Did I Lock the Door?' Anxiety
That nagging feeling when you're already at work. Smart locks let you check your phone and lock remotely if you forgot. Auto-lock is even better.
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.

"My house key broke inside the deadbolt and I couldn't get the broken piece out. The tech used a specialized extractor tool and had it out in under five minutes. He even filed down my spare key so it wouldn't happen again."
"Warehouse manager needed all exterior padlocks and door hardware replaced after a key went missing. Kwikey sourced high-security padlocks and lever handles, swapped everything in one visit, and delivered labeled key sets for each access point. Very organized process."
"Just moved into a rental near the University of Delaware. Landlord approved getting locks rekeyed for safety. Tech arrived same day and did all 4 exterior doors in under an hour. Peace of mind and excellent service!"
Common Smart Lock Installation Questions in Newark
How long will the locksmith service take? expand_more
The duration of our locksmith services varies based on the complexity of the hardware. Most emergency vehicle and home lockouts are resolved professionally in a single visit. Technical rekeying is a relatively quick process per cylinder, while complex automotive programming or high-security hardware installation may require additional time. We provide an honest duration estimate during our initial diagnostic assessment.
What are bump-proof or pick-resistant locks? expand_more
These locks have special pin configurations that defeat common lock-picking techniques. Brands like Medeco and Mul-T-Lock are excellent options. We recommend them for front doors and any entry visible from the street.
What if I'm not satisfied with the work? expand_more
We provide a 90-day service commitment on all workmanship and hardware installations. If you encounter any operational issues during this period, we will return to your location for a diagnostic assessment and resolution as part of our service pledge. Your security and peace of mind are our primary operational priorities.
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.
Are your locksmiths background-verified? expand_more
Yes, every technician on our team undergoes rigorous multi-stage background verification and carries comprehensive professional insurance. We prioritize your security by ensuring our staff are verified experts in residential, commercial, and automotive lock systems.
