One question to ask about a rekey and hardware estimate

Pick one line of the bid. A follow-up that rewrites the whole scope does not get answered.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

The line that gets replies

Are we rekeying to one key now, or waiting while you pick a smart lock? Put $640 in the email so they know which rekey and hardware you mean.

Included and left out

Included: rekeying the six exterior doors to one key, and two new deadbolts. Left out: a smart lock, and the garage man-door closer. The price is the cylinders and the visit. A smart lock is a different product and a different failure mode. Do not leave a construction key working after the rekey.
