We supply and install Wi-Fi, keypad, and Bluetooth smart locks at Richmond homes and businesses — hardware from brands that hold up, fitted by a licensed locksmith who won't leave until the door operates cleanly and the app is working in your hands.
If you need a deadbolt replaced with a smart lock anywhere in Richmond — a Canada Line corridor condo near Brighouse or Aberdeen, a townhouse in Hamilton or West Cambie, a detached home in Broadmoor or Seafair, a commercial unit on No. 3 Road or Bridgeport — we can handle it the same day. We bring the hardware or install what you've already purchased, align the door, program the codes, pair the lock to your network where applicable, and walk you through the setup before we leave. The door works correctly when we're done.
Every installation covers the full scope — the things that make a smart lock reliable long-term, not just working on day one:
Pricing depends on the lock type and whether you're supplying your own hardware or purchasing through us. We confirm your exact quote before arriving — no surprise totals on the day.
| Job type | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Install a lock you've purchased (deadbolt replacement) | $80 – $130 |
| Supply + install: keypad deadbolt (mid-range) | $220 – $320 |
| Supply + install: Wi-Fi smart lock (Yale, Schlage, or equivalent) | $300 – $450 |
| Supply + install: premium smart deadbolt with HomeKit / Matter support | $400 – $600 |
| Door prep (bore adjustment, strike plate reinforcement) | $60 – $120 add-on |
| Multi-door package (2 or more locks, same address) | Ask for a bundle price |
All ranges reflect typical Richmond market pricing and vary by hardware grade, door condition, and any prep work required. No commitment until you have a number you're comfortable with.
Tell us your Richmond address, what you have or what you want, and we'll confirm the scope, give you a price range, and schedule a same-day or next-day slot. Urgent work is almost always available same-day across Richmond.
The technician assesses frame alignment, bore size, and the condition of the existing strike plate. A door that doesn't close squarely will bind a smart lock's motor over time — we correct alignment issues first, before the new hardware goes in.
Lock goes in mechanically, then we handle the digital side: user codes, auto-lock timers, and app pairing where applicable. We don't leave until you've locked and unlocked the door from both the keypad and your phone, and you're clear on how to manage access codes going forward.
Richmond's housing stock spans a wider range than most people expect. The Canada Line corridor has brought a wave of concrete high-rise development — towers at Brighouse, Aberdeen, Lansdowne, and Richmond Centre where units are compact and the router is often close to the front door. Out west in Steveston and Terra Nova you find post-war detached homes, newer single-family builds, and heritage wood-frame cottages where the layout is more spread out. Along the dyke-adjacent streets in Ironwood and Seafair there are larger lot homes with longer hallways. The right smart lock type depends on the door and the layout behind it.
Keypad deadbolts are the most dependable option for Richmond's older detached homes, particularly in Broadmoor, Seafair, and the sections of Steveston where thick walls or long entry hallways weaken Wi-Fi coverage near the front door. They operate fully offline, run 12–18 months on standard AA batteries, and require no app or network to function day-to-day. Resetting the code when a key holder changes is simple — no rekeying required.
Wi-Fi smart locks are ideal where you want remote access, entry notifications, and temporary codes for guests or service providers. They suit Richmond's newer high-rise and strata units particularly well — the concrete towers along the Canada Line corridor are designed with compact floor plans where the front door is rarely far from a router. Battery life is slightly shorter than a keypad-only unit, but the remote access and log capability make the trade-off worthwhile for many Richmond residents.
Bluetooth-only locks offer auto-unlock as you approach, no cloud dependency, and solid privacy for homeowners who prefer not to route access data through a third-party server. They need a hub for remote access, but work reliably in detached and townhouse settings across Terra Nova, Hamilton, and West Cambie where a hub can sit close to the entry.
Richmond has an extensive strata-titled residential sector — from the glass towers around the Canada Line stations to the wood-frame townhouse complexes in Hamilton and East Cambie, to the mixed-use strata buildings along No. 3 Road. Before choosing a smart lock, review your strata bylaws. Many Richmond stratas permit smart lock upgrades provided the replacement hardware meets fire-code requirements, maintains the existing door finish on the exterior face, and doesn't alter the lock brand specified in the building's security schedule. We carry hardware that satisfies common strata requirements and can provide certifications if your property manager requests them. For rental suites in Hamilton and Gilmore — areas with a high proportion of investor-owned strata units — a keypad lock is often the practical choice: reset the code when a tenant changes, no locksmith call required.
