"Equipment is all fairly priced, in fact, some items were cheaper than any other online source. It is all SELF-INSTALLED, so you need to at least know how to operate a screwdriver proficiently. :-) All items have help guides showing you how to install the sensors, door locks, etc. The setup section of the phone app walks you thru the setup of each sensor and lets you know when you're done. I had just had another company install and then remove their system and it took me less time to set up[ this one than they took. The equipment such as door locks (Schlage), sensors (equivalent to Dome or Vivint), front door bell (Skybell) is all TOP quality. All batteries (new) included. Equipment doesn't ship for 48 hours after your order is placed, but then arrives one or two days later. Plan on one full day to install, test and get help (by phone) during your install. As for their support line. It is A1. AAA. Highest award I can think of for telephone support. Courteous, knowledgeable and helpful to a fault. These people provide a full featured system that is awesome. The system's monitoring takes place in NY and is reached by cellular telephone. No wi-fi which a burglar could disable at your home very easily. This they cannot get at. Monitoring cost may vary in your area. Mine is the same as the previously removed sytstem would have been."

"Choice responded quickly but the insurance plan does not pay for all doors to be re-keyed unless you have very few locks. The number of locks covered by the insurance is determined by keyholes, not doors! (Read your policy!) You will likely have to shell out some money to have this essential new-home service if you have more than four keyholes. The locksmith they called was EXCELLENT and made all our locks completely functional. We will happily hire the locksmith again (R.L Locksmith LLC). We paid $201.81 (plus another $50 for some door re-alignment not included in the re-keying benefit) and Choice paid $100 for the job."

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Several types of deadbolts are available, including single-cylinder, double-cylinder, rim, smart, and electronic deadbolt locks. The most common type found in U.S. homes is the single-cylinder deadbolt, which uses a key on the exterior and a thumb turn on the interior. A double-cylinder deadbolt features two locking mechanisms and requires a key to be operated from both the inside and the outside.

The easiest way to pick a lock is by using a titanium rake pick. This type of lock pick comes in a variety of shapes used to simulate different key configurations but generally has a tip with a bent design. Rake picks are the most beginner-friendly lockpicks and the simplest to learn how to use.

The best type of deadbolt depends on your specific needs. If accessibility is your primary concern, a single-cylinder deadbolt is the easiest to operate. Mortise locks are likely the most secure type of deadbolt you can install, but single-cylinders combined with secondary locking mechanisms like vertical locks are also a great option. Smart locks will give you the most flexibility to open and close your locks whenever and wherever you need to. 

Most jobs take 30 minutes to 2 hours, but high-security systems or multiple lock installations may require additional time.

Rekeying door locks yourself costs a fraction of what you would expect to pay a locksmith. On average, it costs between $50 to $100 to hire a local locksmith to rekey your house, though labor costs may vary based on where you live. For a DIY solution, you can expect to spend $11 to $25 on a rekeying kit.
