How it works
- Someone shows a code, card, fob or phone at a keypad or reader.

Questions we hear a lot
Can you work on a system someone else installed?
Often, yes. For app-based systems, we'll need admin access or the owner's approval.
Can we add keyless entry to just one door?
Yes. A standalone keypad or smart lock is often the simplest way, and many don't need any wiring.
A fob stopped working. What now?
Usually it needs to be reprogrammed, or the reader needs attention. We can check both.
