The door your family actually uses

In many Merrick homes, the family rarely uses the front door. People come and go through the door from the garage or the side door, and that's the door kids get locked out of after school and dog walkers need a key for.

A keypad deadbolt on that door means fewer keys to hand out:

  • Keypad deadbolts installed on most standard doors. Alex checks the door first
  • Codes set up with you, and on many models a separate code for each person
  • Delete a code when a sitter or dog walker stops coming, with no rekey needed
  • The front, side and garage entry doors rekeyed to one key, where the locks are compatible

New driver in the house? Three key tips

A few minutes now can save a stressful call later.

  1. Get a spare while you have a keyA spare made from a working key usually costs far less than a new key after the last one is lost.
  2. Skip the magnetic hide-a-keyA key hidden on the car is easy to find. Keep the spare at home, or with a parent.
  3. Know the hidden metal keyMany smart keys have a small metal key inside that can unlock the driver's door if the key-fob battery dies; check the owner's manual for your model. Show your new driver where it is.
