Deadbolt Installation
A deadbolt upgrade is only effective when the lock, door, frame, strike, fasteners, and alignment work together. Installation should not be treated as simply drilling two holes.
Clear information helps match the right tools and technician before the appointment is confirmed.
Match the service to the actual symptoms.

Questions people ask before booking
Can a deadbolt be added to any door?+
Not always. Door construction, glass, narrow stiles, fire ratings, frame condition, and building rules can limit installation.
What is backset?+
Backset is the distance from the door edge to the center of the lock bore. Common sizes must be confirmed before installation.
Does a new deadbolt make the whole door secure?+
It improves one component. Frame strength, strike attachment, door condition, windows, and user habits also matter.
What should be tested before the technician leaves?+
Test every affected function related to deadbolt installation, review any remaining limitations, and make sure keys, locks, doors, remotes, ignition functions, or access hardware operate as expected before the service is closed.
