Philips Wi-Fi Smart Door Lock, Keyless Entry Door Lock with App Control,Fingerprint ID,Auto Lock,Keypad Deadbolt with Wi-Fi Bridge Adaptor,Smart Locks for Front Door-Satin Nickel

I didn't need anything fancy, I just wanted to lock and unlock my door easily and allow my kid to get into the house in an emergency with his fingerprint (he actually likes the code better). For that, it works really well. Here's a breakdown: Ease of installation - it's dead simple if you already have a deadbolt. Just pay attention to little things like which screws go where and how the old one is setup. I also recommend changing out the strike plate (the metal part connected to the doorframe) with the Phillips one because it seems bigger than my old one. The other one screwed up the unit and made it lockup but worked fine after I changed it out. The hardest part of the whole thing is figuring out the cord between the two units. Oh and the door sensor instructions are not clear. Just put it level to the top of the unit and it should work. I had to move mine because it wasn't clear where they wanted it. Ease of setup - pretty easy as well. I had my fingerprints in the system in about 5 minutes (4 fingers total). Another 5m for my kid. It also has you adjust the door to make sure it knows when it's open/closed. It screwed up at first but seems to be working fine now. Ease of daily use - it's just been a day but I get how it works pretty easily. It will auto-lock after you leave, but you can just use your fingerprint to get back in if you left something. My kid is short so his fingerprints do not register that well. However, he likes the code better anyway, and that works just fine. Mine work perfectly. You can also open the app and use that. It's pretty quick. There's just one gripe so far. There's a button on the unit itself that seems to just lock the door only. Every Airbnb I've ever been in (that uses a cheap knockoff of this) that button will close AND open the door. The mechanism to open is smooth and easy, but the button only good for one way is an odd choice and not that useful.

This lock is great. I really like it, and I feel secure using it — which is to say that it functions exactly as I had hoped and expected it to. The fingerprint reader reads very quickly and hasn’t rejected my print once yet. It’s built pretty sturdy, and I think it’ll last a while. It was super simple to install and just as easy to set up. It’s also easy to use and seems to be easy on batteries. I’m always hesitant to talk about battery life on something that uses batteries rather than having a battery built in, bc brand and chemical composition will make your mileage vary. But it seems to “sip” on the batteries, if you will. There’s no connectivity of this lock to your smart home, so don’t expect Alexa or Google Home to see it or “make it go”. I love my Alexa and the myriad of things I connect to her (I love IoT), but I really don’t need to verbally tell her to lock or unlock doors. Besides, to me, that’s a security risk — even in locks with the ability to do this and locks with PIN codes — if someone knows your code, they could just say it loud enough from outside for your smart home device to hear, and open right up, which might get you burglarized…or worse. Anyhow, it’s a fantastic lock, and it hasn’t failed me yet. I give it 5/5 stars.

Overall would absolutely recommend - very good product at very reasonable price! Why 4 star not 5: -------------------- This is the first deadbolt / smart lock I have installed - so maybe this isn't fair. I thought the lock would be more "substantial" and robust. The build quality was good (parts fit together well and was well designed) just didn't impress me as a "strong" deadbolt for security. Also - when installing the deadbolt mechanism (into side of door) - the provided black screw head broke off - leaving one of the two mounting holes unuseable (Phillips - please don't skimp on screw quality). Few Thoughts After Install: ------------------------------ 1. PLEASE - use the excellent videos from Ideaspace on the Amazon website (this product page - Product Details Section - Videos)!!! (Philips 4000 series Installation Steps https://www.amazon.com/vdp/04a61d61cfd4438db1cc20bc5349d95b?ref=ive_share_mshop_detail). So much more consistent with actual product, accurate and clearer then the paper manual and/or the Philips installation videos you land on when scanning the QR code in paper manual. Also wish they would have numbered the screws to know what screws go where ! 2. Didn't use "top" optional screw but think should have !!!! This is the option where have to drill a new hole thru the door, to have another attachment point between the lock front and back (of door) assembly. This should "strengthen" the assembly and maybe assuage my fears. 3. Functionality: All the functionality seemed to work extremely well and very happy with app. Why did I pick this lock: --------------------------- 1. Quality Company: I picked this lock since was from a reputable company (Philips), had every feature I wanted, and at an excellent price!! 2. Battery Life: Just as import, the claimed battery life was among the best for any non-matter/thread. Think this is huge!! I don't want to change batteries every 3 or 4 months typical of wifi locks. Estimated battery life is 8 months. This is a bluetooth lock (meaning only wireless connection at the lock is bluetooth) which is much less energy hungry than wifi. But - you still can see status/unlock remote due to the included wifi bridge. Since the wifi bridge is plugged into an outlet (near the lock), the power hungry wifi is handled by this bridge (using outlet power), not draining the batteries on the lock!!! Yes, Matter enabled (with thread) will also have excellent battery life but locks where much more expensive and JUST being released when purchasing this lock. 3. All the features I needed: Wanted pin codes that could change remotely, be able to see status of door (included door sensor), lock/unlock door remotely, and easy to get in when local at the lock (fingerprint). Conclusion: ------------ Don't think you can beat for the money!!! Will update this review as get more experience with the lock and install the "top" screw for more rigidity!! Hope helps!!!

Mi puerta es 1 cm más gruesa, pero había lugares donde quitaron el pestillo y lo hicieron 2cm más largo y solo compré los dos tornillos más largos también 1y medio más largo y pude ponerlo en mi puerta! Estoy muy feliz. Es increíble y puedes ponerle nombre a cada huella digital que ingreses para identificar quién entra y la hora y poder eliminarlas

Fácil de instalar y de buena calidad, un mes y sin problema

Requires some DIY know-how. You’ll likely have to tinker a bit, drill some pilot holes, chisel out a channel for the latch bolt, extend the latch as needed. A dremel, drill and driver will be helpful. Have a good set of bits on hand. This is an hour or two install. Programming of the device with passcodes, fingerprints and linking the door sensor is a breeze. The app works well and I like the ability to use a physical key if needed. Philips uses a high-security lock cylinder that’s designed to resist sophisticated picking techniques and require a long unlocking time—over 270 minutes according to tests. It’s a quality lock and worth the price - just a shame it’s not integrated with Apple HomeKit.

Great product, easy to install and fingerprint recognition is very accurate.

This is one of my all-time favourite purchases! I don’t know how we lived without it! The fingerprint, for us, is key because we don’t want our kids knowing a code and telling everyone, so we just programmed their fingerprints and they don’t have the code! I like that you can program a guest code and easily set when a code will be active or not! So much functionality! We’ve had it for almost a year now and we haven’t had to change the batteries once!
