I like the monitor but would prefer a black background and white numbers would be easier to read.
Installed for greater than one year. Installed to a most difficult location and the only lock that would. I agree the access through the Tuya app is disappointing and lacks needed enhancements. Mine does not unlock via the app which is limiting. None of the ways the app is said to integrate works, ie. Temporary pass codes, unlock commands, etc do not work. Alexa integration would be welcome also.
Jake - mine locks from the inside by rotating the handle counter clockwise and unlocks by simply turning the handle normally, clockwise. If yours doesn't do this, ensure the latch bolt fully extends into the door jam when closed. Try it with the door open.
Getting this smart door lock for my Airbnb in Costa Rica was a god send. I have a sliding door in my place and I had a very hard time finding something that would work, but I reached out to the connected shop and sent in a size inquiry and they were able to let me know if their lock would work for my door , and it did thankfully. Shipping was about 10 days. I had a locksmith friend of mine install it and it has worked like a charm, super happy with my purchase.
Really nice lock has many options for entry but it can not be locked or unlocked from the inside you have to use the keypad on the outside.
It took me a little while to figure this thing out (instructions and explanations are lacking), but once I did — I really like the units and the (ultimate) utility.
One BIG sticking point for me: how do I know the readings are accurate? Is there a way to calibrate these things?
I have used it and it works. It is a great addition for me. It makes driving my 03 Corvette much easier. I will and have highly recommended it to others. Thank you
It's missing a clip to secure the lock to the bike whilst riding.
You can engineer a strap to the frame of the bike with a receiving latch plus a clip on the back of the lock itself to affix the lock to the bike so it doesn't bounce around.
Great lock, have had it a month now and came back to write this review. Works fine. Takes a minute to program but thumb print opener and codes work fine. Was hesitant to buy because I didn’t see a lot on line about them. But happy with my purchase.
Device works very well, easy install. Recommend it for remote monitoring.
Our clients needed a solution to lock the main door for an indoor pool house, and this product works like a charm.
I've been searching, for several years, for a smart sliding door lock. This is the best I've been able to find, but it's not perfect.
It's a bummer that the Tuya app is the only way to communicate with the lock. The app is seriously lacking. I'm sure it's adaptable, if you're a programmer, but I am not.
The support, from the Connected Shop, has been flawless. They're quick to respond and consistently work to make you happy. I buy a lot of "early adopter" stuff and this company is the best I've dealt with in quite some time.
Can’t wait for the leaves to break. They are one of the things I really want to look at under the microscope.
I have a boarding house ppl in drug and alcohol recovery. This lock is a great way to manage who’s coming and going. I don’t have to give residents keys which prevents having to replace lost keys. Also a great way to manage staffs hours. We love this lock. It is so convenient. You have to get a real contractor to install but it’s worth it! It’s not difficult to work either. It’s Chinese but easy to figure out. Highly recommended for home and business. ✨
