Smart Lock & Keyless Entry Installation

The Convenience of Keyless Entry, Installed Professionally

Smart locks and keypad locks have changed how people get in and out of their homes and businesses. No more hiding a key under the mat, no more waiting around to let in a contractor, and no more worrying about who still has a copy of your key. With a properly installed keyless lock, you can create codes for family, guests and service providers, delete them anytime, and in many cases lock or unlock your door from your phone.

But a smart lock is still a lock. If it is installed on a misaligned door, with a weak strike or the wrong settings, it can fail to latch, drain batteries quickly, or leave your home less secure than before. Locksmith of Brevard installs and programs keyless locks with the same care we bring to traditional hardware, so you get all the convenience without sacrificing security.

Types of Keyless Locks We Install

Keypad Deadbolts

Electronic keypad deadbolts replace your existing deadbolt and let you enter with a code. Most include a key cylinder as a backup. They are simple, reliable and a great first step into keyless entry.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Smart Locks

Smart locks connect to an app on your phone. Depending on the model, you can lock and unlock remotely, receive notifications when the door is used, set schedules for guest codes, and connect with voice assistants and home security systems. We help you pick a model that works with your phone, your Wi-Fi coverage and any smart home platform you already use.

Fingerprint and Touchscreen Locks

Biometric locks open with a fingerprint, while touchscreen models offer a clean, modern look with a backlit keypad. Both are popular for busy households.

Mechanical Push-Button Locks

For gates, pool enclosures, sheds and commercial doors, mechanical push-button locks need no batteries or wiring, which makes them extremely reliable in Florida heat, rain and humidity.

Commercial Keypad and Access Locks

Businesses can use keypad levers and networked locks to manage employee access without handing out keys. For larger needs, see our access control systems.

Benefits of Going Keyless

• No lost keys. Codes cannot be dropped in a parking lot or left in a pocket.
• Easy access control. Give temporary codes to guests, pet sitters, cleaners and contractors, then delete them when the job is done.
• Great for rentals. Vacation rental and long-term rental owners in Melbourne Beach, Cocoa Beach and across the county can change codes between guests without rekeying.
• Peace of mind. Many smart locks can notify you when someone enters and let you confirm the door is locked from anywhere.
• Auto-lock. Many models lock automatically after a set time, so you never wonder whether you locked up.

Keeping Your Smart Lock Secure

A connected lock is part of your home network, so a few simple habits keep it secure:

• Change any default codes and use codes that are not easy to guess, such as birthdays or addresses.
• Use a strong, unique password and two-factor authentication on the lock app account.
• Keep the lock firmware and app updated.
• Secure your home Wi-Fi with a strong password and up-to-date router.
• Delete codes for people who no longer need access.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency offers easy-to-follow advice for protecting connected devices through its Secure Our World program. We walk you through these settings during installation.

Why Professional Installation Matters

Many smart lock problems come from installation, not the lock itself. A deadbolt that drags against the strike will strain the motor and drain batteries, and a lock installed on a door that does not close fully may report locked when the bolt is not seated. We check door alignment, adjust or reinforce the strike, install the lock to manufacturer specifications, calibrate the motor, set up the app and codes with you, and confirm everything works before we leave.

Because we are full-service locksmiths, we can also rekey the backup cylinder to match your other doors, replace mismatched hardware, and upgrade strike plates for extra protection. Need other door hardware? Our lock installation and repair team does it all.

Smart Locks in the Florida Climate

Heat, humidity, salt air and summer storms can be tough on electronics. We recommend locks rated for exterior use, and for coastal homes, finishes designed to resist corrosion. On doors that face direct afternoon sun, we may suggest specific models or keypad orientations that hold up better. We also remind you to replace batteries proactively before hurricane season.

Choosing the Right Smart Lock

With so many brands and models available, choosing a smart lock can feel overwhelming. Here are the questions we help customers answer before installation:

• How do you want to unlock? Keypad codes, phone app, fingerprint, voice assistant or a combination.
• Do you want remote access? Wi-Fi models let you control the lock from anywhere, while Bluetooth models work only when your phone is nearby, unless paired with a hub.
• Which smart home platform do you use? Some locks work best with specific ecosystems or video doorbells.
• Do you want a key backup? Most homeowners prefer a key cylinder in case of electronic failure, while some businesses prefer keyless models for tighter control.
• How many users need access? Families, rentals and businesses may need locks that support many codes and schedules.
• What is the door like? Door thickness, backset and existing bore holes determine which models fit without modification.

Smart Locks for Rental and Vacation Properties

Brevard County has a thriving short-term rental market near the beaches and the Space Coast. Smart locks are a game-changer for hosts. Instead of meeting guests to hand off keys or worrying about unreturned keys, you can send each guest a unique code that works only during their stay. Many locks integrate with rental management platforms to automate this entirely. Long-term landlords benefit too, since changing a code between tenants takes minutes compared to rekeying.

Smart Locks for Small Businesses

Small offices, salons, gyms and retail shops use keypad and smart locks to give employees access without issuing keys. When someone leaves, you simply delete their code. Some systems also show when each code was used, which helps with accountability. For larger or multi-door needs, our access control solutions may be a better fit.

Smart Lock Troubleshooting and Repair

Already have a smart lock that is giving you trouble? We service locks that will not lock fully, drain batteries quickly, lose connection, or jam. The fix is often a strike adjustment or door alignment, not a new lock. If the lock does need replacing, we will recommend a more reliable model.

Smart Lock FAQs

Can a smart lock be installed on my existing door?

Most smart locks fit standard pre-drilled doors. If your door needs modification, we take care of it during installation.

What happens if the battery dies?

Most locks warn you weeks in advance and include a key cylinder or emergency power terminal so you are never locked out. If you are, call our emergency lockout service.

Do you install locks I purchased online?

Yes. We install customer-supplied smart locks and can tell you in advance whether a model will fit your door. Visit our FAQ page for more answers.
