Keypad locks, digital deadbolts, and commercial access control — installed and programmed same day by Rodney, a licensed locksmith and certified Nexkey dealer since 1990.
Smart locks are one of the best upgrades you can make to your home or business — no more hiding spare keys, fumbling for keys in the dark, or worrying about whether you remembered to lock up. As a licensed locksmith and certified Nexkey dealer, I've installed hundreds of keypad locks and smart access systems across Fremont and the East Bay.
Whether you want a simple keypad deadbolt for your front door or a full commercial access control system for a multi-door office, I handle the installation, programming, and walkthrough from start to finish.
Not all smart locks are the same. Here's what I work with most often in Fremont:
For Fremont homeowners, the most common request is a keypad deadbolt on the front door. This is a straightforward swap from your existing deadbolt — same door prep, same hole, no drilling required in most cases. I bring the hardware, program the master code and up to 10 user codes, test everything, and leave you with a written record of all codes.
I also install smart locks on back doors, garage entry doors, and secondary units. If you have a rental property in Fremont, keypad locks are a smart investment — you can reset codes between tenants without touching the hardware.
Businesses have different needs than homeowners. I work regularly with offices, retail stores, warehouses, and property management companies along the I-880 corridor. For commercial properties, I typically recommend Nexkey access control, which offers:
I'm one of the only Nexkey certified dealers in the Fremont area, which means I'm trained directly by Nexkey on proper installation and programming — not just reading the manual.
You call, I answer — not a dispatcher. I'll ask a few questions about your door, your current hardware, and what you're trying to accomplish. Most installations are same-day or next-day. When I arrive, I bring the lock, do the installation, program all codes, test the lock from both sides, and walk you through everything before I leave. No mess, no guesswork.

Prices vary by lock type and door hardware. A keypad deadbolt swap typically runs $150–$350 installed, including the hardware. WiFi-enabled smart locks are slightly higher. Nexkey commercial systems depend on the number of doors and scope. Call Rodney at (925) 848-4870 for an honest, upfront quote.
Most residential keypad lock installations take 30–60 minutes. That includes removing the old lock, installing the new one, programming all user codes, and a full walkthrough. Commercial Nexkey systems with multiple doors may take longer.
No. Basic keypad deadbolts are completely standalone — they run on batteries and don't need any internet connection. WiFi adds remote access and alerts from your phone, but it's optional. I'll help you choose the right lock for how you actually want to use it.
I install Schlage, Kwikset, Nexkey, and other quality brands. As a certified Nexkey dealer, I have direct training on their commercial access control platform. If you already have a lock in mind, I can usually source it — just call and ask.
In most cases, yes. Standard keypad deadbolts use the same door prep (backset, cross bore) as traditional deadbolts, so no drilling is needed. I'll confirm fit when I arrive — if there's ever an issue, I'll tell you upfront before starting any work.
