        "text": "The time required to install a new door lock can vary depending on the lock type and whether it's a new installation or a replacement. A standard deadbolt or knob lock replacement on an existing pre-drilled door might take 30 minutes to an hour. Installing a new lock where no existing holes are present, or installing a complex smart lock system, can take longer, potentially two to four hours, as it involves precise drilling and calibration. Our team at Maine Results, Inc. can provide a more accurate time estimate after understanding your specific lock choice and current door setup.",
