Default Locksmith needed

Do you have a good locksmith? I would like to replace the entry from the garage with a keypad lock (non-Wi-Fi). Previous home I had the one below for more than 20 yrs that operated perfectly and it required only one battery replacement. I would like to get the same here. I realize it looks like an easy DIY, but I’ll screw it up some how. Thanks.

Does that actually lock the garage door? With the garage door opener I never use the actual lock as the door does not open with the opener attached. I shut off the opener at the panel which keeps the door from opening.

I checked out Affordable. I’m not sure this place should be using “Affordable.” I gave him the model lock I want installed, he showed me a picture so we’re on the same page.
$124. Home Depot
$115. Walmart
$105. Amazon
$254. Affordable

He acknowledged install is quick but he has to charge a min. of one hour at $200/hr.

I think I’ll make it a DIY and do my best to not screw it up.

Although, I didn’t buy from Affordable I do appreciate the recommendation. Perhaps in the future I’ll have a project requiring a pro and look them up again.
