Professional Deadbolt Installation in Farmington NM
A properly installed Grade 1 deadbolt is the single most effective home security upgrade you can make. Our NM-licensed technicians install ANSI Grade 1 deadbolts — the highest residential security rating — with proper door prep, reinforced strike plates, and 3-inch screws that anchor into the door frame stud.
We carry Schlage, Kwikset, and Baldwin deadbolts in your choice of finish. Smart deadbolt upgrades (keypad, Bluetooth, Z-Wave) installed same day. All work comes with a 90-day labor warranty.
Deadbolt Types We Install
ANSI Grade 1 · Same-Day Service · All Door Types
Single Cylinder Deadbolt
Key outside, thumb-turn inside. Most common for exterior doors. ANSI Grade 1 models resist kick-in, drill, and pick attacks. Schlage B60N or equivalent installed from $85.
Double Cylinder Deadbolt
Key required on both sides. Best for doors with glass panels nearby. Prevents break-the-glass entry. Important: requires a key nearby for emergency egress — we discuss pros and cons on-site.
Smart Deadbolt
Keypad, fingerprint, app-controlled, or Bluetooth models available. Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, or Yale Assure. Keeps Grade 1 physical security with keyless convenience. From $145 installed.
01
Door & Frame Assessment
Tech checks door thickness, existing prep holes, and frame condition. Steel doors vs wood doors need different hardware.
02
Lock Body Installed
Deadbolt body seated flush in door. Bolt throw tested for smooth full extension. Cylinder installed and keyed.
03
Strike Plate Upgraded
3-inch screws anchor strike plate into the door stud — not just the jamb. This alone doubles kick-in resistance vs standard hardware.
04
Keyed & Tested
Door opens and closes smoothly, deadbolt extends and retracts cleanly. Keys duplicated if needed. 90-day labor warranty.

Deadbolt FAQs — Farmington NM
Real Questions · Straight Answers
■ Question 01
What’s the difference between Grade 1 and Grade 2 deadbolts?
ANSI Grade 1 deadbolts are tested to withstand 250,000 open/close cycles and 10 strike blows of 75 foot-pounds — the highest residential security rating. Grade 2 handles 150,000 cycles and 5 strikes. For exterior doors, we always recommend Grade 1.
■ Question 02
Can you install a deadbolt on a steel door?
Yes. Steel doors require a hole saw rather than a spade bit, and the strike plate installation differs slightly. We carry all necessary tools to prep and install deadbolts on steel, fiberglass, and wood doors same day in Farmington.
■ Question 03
Should I rekey or replace my deadbolt after moving?
If the existing deadbolt is Grade 1 and in good condition, rekeying costs less ($55–65) and takes 10 minutes. If the lock is Grade 2 or showing wear, replacement with a new Grade 1 deadbolt is worth the extra cost. We can assess on-site and recommend.
■ Question 04
How long does deadbolt installation take?
Installing into an existing prep hole takes 20–30 minutes. Drilling a new hole in a door that never had a deadbolt takes 45–60 minutes. Smart deadbolt setup and app pairing adds 15–20 minutes. All on-site in Farmington NM.
