Elemake Smart Fingerprint Door Lock Review and How To Install

[@ANA83330]

Thankyou for this very short and useful video. My 7 year old used this to install the door knob 😊

[@DIYReid]

Glad it could help.

[@mindim7946]

Can he come install mine? 😂

[@twocornell]

Installed the exact same handle on my bedroom door. Been using this for close to 16 months now and my number 7 on the keypad has become unresponsive. I don’t really use the number pad, but noticed this when needing to enter my room one day.

[@DIYReid]

Are the batteries dead?

[@twocornell]

@@DIYReid no, just replaced them.

[@DIYReid]

@twocornell are they in the right way?

[@twocornell]

@DIYReid it works, batteries last a long time, just after a year of use (and not using the number pad) I noticed the 7 does not respond to being touched.

[@DIYReid]

@twocornell oh ok. So the thumb print works?

[@halfhead4099]

your handle is opening on the left side can i install it to open on the right side? (basically doing 180 turn)

[@FOXSHINOBI]

Depends if it fits if it does sure if it doesn’t there is a door knob only for finger print

[@simplyfreshda4931]

Can I just buy the handles after purchasing the kit with the wifi home or do all the handles come with the hub....can we just add multiple handels to the hub and app?

[@bjincastano8438]

wonderful video. 🎉 is there a way to know if someone opened the door or try it at least? i'm afraid that my nephew has stolen one of the two keys

[@roquemonteleone4428]

Great video. Can this be used as front door lock? Thank you

[@DIYReid]

I wouldn’t unless you also have a dead bolt.

[@djz2803]

Do share your gateway hub? Also is there a setting to keep the door always unlocked?

[@Scottyishspencer]

Thank you for the review ! I bought 2 using your link !

[@Yajitra]

Thanks for the review. How can I manually lock the door? I seem cannot figure it out.

[@A_Class216]

Just got mine today.

[@betterhoodproperties]

would this be a good lock for house share? is it easily reprogrammable?

[@TheRandomChannel62]

Can you replace the battery or is it charging?

[@KOKOSCZ69]

would it be possible for me not to have to change the latch in the door?

[@238club]

I got one but I didn’t come with the Bluetooth gateway? Can I still use? If so how? Do I still just use the batteries with no gateway

[@k4sperl567]

^^there is the gateway^^

[@Elviss001]

Thank you so much I got one important question how do i lock the door from inside ? Is there any way i can keep the children not to go out easily , i couldn’t find the way to lock it from inside

[@DIYReid]

There is a button on the back.

[@JaidanProwse]

Does the door lock when you enter the room. Or can you lock it from the inside. Thanks

[@DIYReid]

You can have auto lock or lock iyourswld.

[@Jervo2000]

Is there a doorbell function on this, I got one branded Xspecial from Amazon and every so often when I put my hand on it to open or close a doorbell goes of

[@DIYReid]

No

[@rich22111]

What is the double verification in the more settings in the app for? It got 2 double verification settings toi

[@Logan-LeeCromie]

What type of door do u need to have it on

[@DIYReid]

Standard dooor.

[@aricawashington5360]

Does the front knob turn after the complete install? My back knob turns immediately

[@DIYReid]

I’m not sure what you mean? Does the handle turn? Yes.

[@Bdbdbd-ft3pv]

how long does the battery last with daily use?

[@DIYReid]

I use it daily since I did the video. Still on same batteries.

[@rich22111]

If you setup the app and lock before installing it, wouldn't it stop the accident locked yourself out?

[@SecretMan299]

hello, is it possible to designate a certain member of the household that he can only open daytime and night-time he cant access the doorknob ..thanks

[@DIYReid]

Yes, you can schedule access but only between dates. I don't see where at night time you can revoke access.

[@specialoccasionsselfieboot5578]

I have locks for office suites how do you turn off auto lock?

[@Chris-zu4es]

3:46 you can take off the knob before unscrewing it

[@DIYReid]

Yeah. I realized that

[@rodolfocabrera7565]

The connector won’t connect to the green park where the AAA batteries are connected

[@natashahfaith464]

Hai i just bought this..ive installed the handle but the door still slides open when i push it…do i have to change the hinges/plate that comes with it as well?Cause i didnt changed to the one it came with…is that why??

[@DIYReid]

It might help. It’s not going into the plate is why it opens.

[@Megalodon_v2_]

Didn't see in video but how do you lock it on the outside?

[@Imsocute573]

U can’t do it outside

[@TheCookster64]

Also make sure your door is something like a Brosco slab door or at least a solid core door. If it's a hollow core door they'll be able to smash through it with very little effort.

[@DIYReid]

These are for interior doors. If you have an issue big enough for someone that may bust the door I think you have bigger problems.

[@megavideopowermegavideopow8657]

What do you do if the battery dies?

[@DIYReid]

There is a key and you can also plug in a USB power bank to power it temporarily.

[@zotydenar]

czy trzeba wymienić wkładkę czy może zostać stara?

Love to buy this lock, however, I can't find it with your links on this page. If you would like to send me a link so you get the credit.

[@emilygartrell8057]

Why does it mean when the handle isn't moving when you up the door handle one

[@DIYReid]

Like not moving at all?

[@MatthewEskins]

Can I still use the door handle without a password/fingerprint , I just want to use it as a door handle

[@DIYReid]

Yes

[@josephcelestine1945]

Did you add the app name to look up?

[@DIYReid]

I can’t remember off the top of my head but there is a AR code in the instructions for the app.

[@cr7editzW]

Is there a no password feature?

[@DIYReid]

Yes.

[@freeup1997]

why did you shot how to connect to Bluetooth? that would have been helpful.

[@rosalyngold7296]

I have a question, if the door handle dies, will I be able to unlock it through my device or only with the key?

[@priteshp9465]

😭 really? Like cmon

[@NayokeHenji]

​@@priteshp9465next question - if my phone battery dies, can I still call my mom?

[@jp_zookie-_-9206]

Does it have batteries?

[@DIYReid]

Yes

[@vc6218]

What's better? This or the Geek one?

[@DIYReid]

This one because it has a passcode on the outside and phone app

[@vc6218]

@@DIYReid oh I thought the other one had an app as well? Does this one with the passcode have the secret key hole?

[@DIYReid]

It does have a key.

[@bc_usa]

​@vc6218 Don't buy the Geek one I'm returning mine for a refund because the app won't communicate with the doorknob.

What's the app called?

Batteries are not chargeable. Plug in a battery pack to the usb port to get in and change the batteries.
