What is lock installation?
Lock installation fits and aligns a deadbolt, knob, lever, smart lock, or compatible high-security cylinder so the bolt operates correctly with the door and strike.
When does this service make sense?
- A damaged or unreliable lock should be replaced
- A home needs Grade 1 or Grade 2 deadbolt options
- A compatible smart lock needs correct mechanical installation
- Several doors should use a coordinated key plan

Grade 1 versus Grade 2?
Grade ratings reflect tested strength and durability. Grade 1 is commonly selected for heavier commercial use and higher-security residential applications. Grade 2 can be a practical fit for many homes. The door and frame must also be sound for upgraded hardware to do its job.
Smart locks need the right door preparation?
A smart deadbolt can add convenient codes and remote features, but it still depends on smooth mechanical alignment. If the bolt binds, batteries drain faster and reliability suffers. Cris checks the fit and installs compatible hardware without treating the electronics as a substitute for a solid door.
When replacement makes sense?
Replace a lock that is damaged, unreliable, corroded, incompatible with your keying plan, or below the security level you want. If the hardware is sound and you only need old keys disabled, rekeying may save money. You get the options and phone price before work begins.
