Locks for Different Door Types
Not every lock fits every door. Our technicians measure bore holes, backset depth, and door thickness before recommending hardware:
- Solid wood and fiberglass entry doors — Standard deadbolt prep, often 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" backset. We ensure the bolt throws fully into the strike plate.
- Metal security doors — May need specialized strikes or spacer kits so deadbolts align correctly.
- Interior bedroom and office doors — Privacy knobs or levers with optional keyed entry.
- Older Guthrie and OKC homes — Sometimes have non-standard spacing; we adapt hardware or re-bore carefully when needed.
Smart Lock Installation — What to Expect
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth locks are popular in newer Edmond neighborhoods. We fit the lock, test the bolt, walk you through app pairing, and confirm backup entry (key or keypad code) works before we leave. Tell us your hub ecosystem — Alexa, Google Home, or standalone — so we can recommend compatible models. Book dedicated smart lock installation in Edmond and OKC when that is the job you need.
Serving the OKC Metro
We install locks daily across Edmond, Oklahoma City, and Guthrie. New construction handoffs, post-closing security upgrades, and rental turnovers are among our most common calls.
How a lock installation actually works
A lock is only as good as the door prep and the bolt path. Installation starts with measuring the cross bore, edge bore, backset, and door thickness so the chassis sits flush and the latch or deadbolt throws fully into a solid strike — not just into thin trim. On entry doors we care about alignment and throw; on keypad or smart hardware we still confirm the mechanical bolt works before any app pairing. Wrong spacing on older Edmond, Oklahoma City, or Guthrie doors is common; adapting the prep beats forcing a lock that binds. Oklahoma license #1065.
