Main door lock installation with photo checks for door thickness, handle position, and fitting clearance.
Send us photos of your door, gate, and lock model first. We check fit, fire-rated requirements where applicable, and installation scope before you buy or book, so you avoid wrong-lock headaches, poor fitting, and surprise charges.
Many Singapore homes need more than a single-door setup. We help you decide whether to install on the wooden main door, metal gate, or both, based on how your household actually enters and locks up every day.
Main door lock installation with photo checks for door thickness, handle position, and fitting clearance.
Gate lock setup for common HDB metal gate profiles, including alignment checks before handover.
Replace an existing digital lock or upgrade from a mechanical lock with a cleaner setup.
Most homeowners do not need a complicated smart-home project at the front door. They need a digital lock that works for children, parents, helpers, guests, pet sitters, and daily errands without turning the home into unpaid tech support.
We keep the setup practical: confirm the access methods you need, test alignment before handover, explain battery and backup access clearly, and avoid unnecessary features that do not make daily entry easier.
Share the work area, measurements where possible, and what you need done.
We review what can be quoted from photos and what may need checking.

We compared a few digital locks and were not sure if the model would fit our HDB main door. They checked photos first, explained the clearance issue, and installed the lock neatly without changing the whole door setup.
Our metal gate lock needed proper alignment and we were worried about it jamming. The installer tested the gate several times, adjusted the fit, and showed us how to use PIN and fingerprint access before leaving.
The team set up access for my parents, helper, and temporary guests. They explained battery backup clearly and made sure everyone could unlock the door before handover.

This depends on the lock model. We help you understand the available backup method, such as emergency power, mechanical key fallback, or other fail-safe access before installation.
