Homeowners often underestimate the factors that influence final pricing. Material selection, door preparation, and desired connectivity all play a role. That’s why CountBricks uses AI-driven estimating to pin down an accurate figure in minutes. Speak your scope of work, and our software instantly matches real-time material prices with local labor rates, then outputs a detailed line-item proposal.

Our field teams follow a rigorously optimized five-step process to guarantee a flawless fit and long-term reliability.
1. Pre-install assessment: Measure backset, bore diameter, and door thickness to confirm lock compatibility.
2. Hardware prep: Remove existing deadbolt, inspect mortise pocket, and reinforce strike plate area.
3. Device installation: Mount interior and exterior escutcheon plates, route wiring, and secure battery pack.
4. System programming: Enroll master code, individual user codes, and Wi-Fi credentials as required.
5. Homeowner walk-through: Demonstrate operation, review app features, and provide maintenance checklist.
Most contractors still rely on manual takeoffs and generic price books. CountBricks disrupts that cycle by combining voice-to-estimate technology with live material feeds from nationwide suppliers. You talk, our platform listens, and a complete proposal appears—complete with project images and scope notes. The result is fewer surprises, tighter budgets, and faster approvals.

Most retrofits use the current 2⅛-inch bore. CountBricks supplies adapter plates for non-standard holes, so fresh drilling is rarely required.
A single door averages 60–90 minutes. Complex multi-point locks or extensive door repairs can extend the timeline, but CountBricks scheduling software buffers extra time to stay on track.
The lock continues to operate via keypad and Bluetooth, keeping your home secure even when connectivity drops.
