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?

[@Scottyishspencer]

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

[@roquemonteleone4428]

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

[@DIYReid]

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

[@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

[@betterhoodproperties]

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

[@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.

[@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?

[@ethanbromley3226]

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.

[@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.

[@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

[@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.

[@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?

[@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.

[@freeup1997]

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

[@leitinger]

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.

[@DIYReid]

It looks like it’s gone from their website. Maybe they discontinued it

[@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?

[@Oreo3417]

Is there voice activation?

[@MatthewEskins]

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

[@DIYReid]

Yes

[@zotydenar]

czy trzeba wymienić wkładkę czy może zostać stara?

[@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.

[@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.

[@yolandabayona9800]

Hi, what its the name of the app for iphone? Thanks

[@yarisbelssoza8132]

What can I do, when my device says 0% battery?

[@cr7editzW]

Is there a no password feature?

[@DIYReid]

Yes.

[@emilygartrell8057]

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

[@DIYReid]

Like not moving at all?

[@findthissaving2023]

An amazing video.

[@DIYReid]

Smart Life

[@m.douglas5406]

@@DIYReid I found the app used for my lock. It was definitely luck and got it all set up on the first try. I inherited the building with the lock so I didn’t know how is originally set up.

[@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.

[@jp_zookie-_-9206]

Does it have batteries?

[@DIYReid]

Yes

[@littlebill833]

Thanks!

[@sydsails]

Can you plz send me the manual for this lock or tell me how to factory reset it

[@leisuretime9177]

Links not working, why?

[@TheCoffman]

What should I do if the battery is dead, it won’t charge and I’m locked out?? 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@DIYReid]

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

[@Aj_Dcreator]

It isn’t even opening with power bank or emergency key , I am locked out

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

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.

Domes it make a beeping noise every 10 seconds I go one and make a beep every 10 to 15 minutes

[@DIYReid]

Is it locked but door is open?

[@joshuamorgan2294]

Like the the door will be closed and it just keep beeping the app barely works that y I wanting to buy a new one
