Keypad Door Lock Installation in Charlotte, NC

Keypad locks eliminate the need for physical keys entirely — no more lost keys, no more copying keys for new staff, and no expensive re-keying every time an employee leaves. Public Locksmith installs keypad door locks throughout Charlotte for businesses managing staff turnover, property managers with multiple tenants, and homeowners who want the convenience of code-based entry. We supply, install, and program battery-powered and wired keypad locks for any door type.

Types of Keypad Locks We Install

🔋 Standalone Electronic Deadbolt

Battery-powered keypad deadbolts such as the Schlage BE365 and Kwikset 910 are the most common residential and light commercial solution. No wiring required — they install just like a standard deadbolt and run on AA batteries. Up to 19 user codes can be programmed. Ideal for office front doors, rental properties, and storage rooms.

🏢 Commercial Grade Electronic Lever

For higher-traffic commercial doors, we install commercial-grade electronic levers such as the Schlage ND series with electronic module. These provide ANSI Grade 1 durability with the convenience of PIN access, and are ADA compliant for public-facing commercial entrances.

🗝️ Keypad with Key Override

Most standalone keypad deadbolts include a physical key cylinder as an emergency backup. This is the ideal configuration for businesses that want keyless convenience while retaining a key-based fallback for power failures or forgotten codes. We install and key these to your existing key system where possible.

📶 Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Smart Locks

Connected smart locks such as the Schlage Encode and Kwikset Halo add remote access management via a smartphone app. Lock and unlock from anywhere, receive entry notifications, and create time-limited access codes for guests or contractors — all managed from your phone. No hub required for Wi-Fi models.

🔐 Commercial Access Control Keypad

For multi-door commercial installations requiring audit trails, credential management, and integration with alarm or building management systems, we install commercial access control keypads from HID, Honeywell, and Bosch. These go beyond a standalone keypad lock into full access control territory. See our Access Control Charlotte page for details on these systems.
