## Problems We Solve Every Week

### Confused about which smart lock platform actually works

Schlage Encode, Yale Assure, August, Brivo, PDK — each has tradeoffs. We match the platform to your doors, traffic, and how you want to manage credentials.

### Existing electronic lock is dead and will not open

Dead batteries, fried boards, and stuck deadbolts happen. We bypass and reopen non-destructively, then restore the system without replacing the whole lock when possible.

### Need to revoke staff access without rekeying every door

Mechanical rekeys are expensive when turnover is high. Cloud-based credentials let you revoke a single user in seconds and keep an audit trail.

### Worried about smart locks getting hacked

Real-world risk is usually weak codes or dead batteries — not Bluetooth attacks. We install models with strong encryption, low-battery alerts, and a mechanical override for backup.

 covers encryption, battery backup, and the models we actually recommend installing.

## Integration With Existing Hardware

Most smart deadbolts retrofit a standard deadbolt prep, but commercial access control often needs an electric strike, REX sensor, and proper wiring. We handle the integration so your smart system works with door closers, fire-rated hardware, and life-safety code.

## Pair With Master Keying

For businesses, many setups work best as a mix: cloud-based credentials on entry doors, mechanical 

master keys

[/guide/how-master-key-systems-work-for-businesses/ →](/guide/how-master-key-systems-work-for-businesses/)

 for back-of-house. We design both halves so each one covers what it should.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most often.

Can smart locks be hacked?

Reputable models use strong encryption. The bigger real-world risk is weak codes or dead batteries — both manageable.

What happens if the battery dies?

Most have low-battery alerts and a mechanical key or external power backup so you're never locked out.

Which smart system is best for a small office?

Often a prox/RFID or cloud-based system so you can issue and revoke credentials per employee with an audit trail.

Do smart locks still have a key backup?

Many do. We recommend models with a mechanical override for peace of mind.
