In the fast-moving Houston residential market, every subcontractor minute and every material dollar matter. When it is time to install lock Houston homeowners can depend on for safety and style, top builders choose CountBricks. Our AI-powered estimating platform captures voice notes on-site, converts them into detailed material lists, and generates a firm price in minutes. You close the scope gap, keep schedules tight, and hand over keys with confidence.
Relying on manual takeoffs and handwritten quotes exposes projects to three common pain points:
• Scope drift when door counts change late in framing
• Mis-matched hardware finishes that create punch-list delays
• Labor overruns caused by unclear hand-offs between carpenters and locksmiths
CountBricks eliminates these setbacks by anchoring every decision to real-time pricing and a live materials database optimized for Houston suppliers.
1. Walk the site and speak: “Install lock Houston plan, thirty satin nickel lever sets, smart deadbolts on exterior doors.”
2. CountBricks records your voice, tags door locations on the blueprint, and presents an itemized estimate in under five minutes.
3. Approve with one tap—purchase orders hit preferred local vendors while our vetted locksmith crew is automatically scheduled.
4. Field technicians check in through the CountBricks mobile dashboard, logging progress and photos that sync to your client portal.
5. A branded invoice is generated the moment the final strike plate is tightened, keeping cash flow fluid.
• Marine-grade stainless hardware resists Gulf Coast humidity
• Smart locks rated for 140°F direct sun prevent thermal expansion failure
• ANSI Grade 1 deadbolts meet growing insurance requirements for Houston ZIP codes
CountBricks partnered with Magnolia Point Construction on a 5,200-sq-ft custom build. The architect specified a mix of matte black interior levers and aged-bronze exterior hardware. Mid-framing, the homeowner upgraded to Wi-Fi enabled keypads. Instead of pushing back completion, the superintendent used CountBricks voice re-scope. The platform recalculated costs, confirmed availability at a local distributor, and rescheduled the locksmith for the same week. Result: zero delay, and a net material savings of 6% through bundle pricing surfaced by CountBricks AI.
• Photo verification of every installed lock Houston inspectors love
• Torque-tested latch bolts logged to the CountBricks cloud
• 24-month workmanship warranty automatically attached to your client file

• Passage levers and latch sets matched to hinge finishes
• Pocket-door pulls with magnetic latches for soft-close sliders
