Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security in Anchorage is well known for our remote start and security system installations. Did you know that adding power locks to vehicles without power lock control is an option? Adding power door locks is a popular option for older vehicles and work trucks. Read on to find out how we can give you remote control over the security of your vehicle.

Vehicles with Factory Door Lock Control

When our installation team installs a remote car starter, security system, or keyless entry system on a vehicle with power door lock control installed from the factory, we send an electrical signal out from the brain of the unit. This signal goes to the motor in the door, or the vehicle ECU to tell it when to lock and unlock. In some vehicles, the door locks are controlled by the factory alarm system. They lock and unlock as we arm or disarm the system.

What if you do not have Power Locks?

If your vehicle does not have power locks, we can add a device called a door lock actuator to control the door locks in each of your doors mechanically. These actuators, sometimes called door lock poppers or door lock solenoids, are mounted securely in each door and are controlled by our system controller.

You still have full manual control over the lock mechanism in the vehicle. Your key or the lever inside the vehicle will still function normally, even after we have installed actuators.

What Else Can We Control?

If you have a lock on the hatch of your SUV, we can control that with a solenoid as well. We can piggyback on rear hatch release switches to make loading cargo easier. If your vehicle does not have a power trunk release, we can add a different kind of solenoid to pop your trunk from your remote control. There is no limit to what we can connect to and control with a Compustar remote starter or security system.

Some drivers like to have their doors locked while driving. We can even configure your door locks to lock when you start moving, then unlock when you stop the vehicle and turn off the ignition.

Alaska’s Best Installation

The installation staff at Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security are the best in Alaska. Whether we are installing a remote keyless entry system on a brand-new vehicle equipped with every power option available, or we are adding a remote starter and security system with power door locks and power trunk release to an older vehicle. Our team regularly attends training sessions. We stay at the leading edge of technologies and processes that will increase the performance and reliability of the systems we install. We employ a two-man check-in/check-out process to ensure the system we install in your vehicle will function reliably for years.
