This is why I like this channel. No stone goes unturned. As for the review, I also shared many of your gripes upon first use. Though, for my personal applicable use, it works as it should perfectly and my gripes do not outweigh the functionality and usefulness of the lock as a whole. Anyway, great review as expected!

@edwardgreenjr1674 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the in-depth review. I do like some of the features of this device. *However,* any smart lock that replaces a deadbolt *and* has a physical key option should mention if the locking mechanism can be upgraded/replaced. I bring this up because that is not always the case or easily done without substantial cost. The physical key-way can be the weakest link in the security chain of any home. I learned this the hard way when I saw how easy it is to pick a kiwiset lock, for example. This can be an issue if you need to have a locksmith re-key a lock, as well. It's easy to see how any electronic features can be moot if the physical key is compromised. If convenience is more of a priority than security, then this is a non-issue. But for this reason I have been looking at smart locks that only replace the latch mechanism side, and not the deadbolt itself. From first looks at this smart-lock, it appears the deadbolt cylinder can be swapped out. But I think this should be an addition to your "review punch-list" going forward. Otherwise great work as always.
@LifeHackster4 жыл бұрын
True. There are no mention of that in their user manual. There are warnings of voiding the warranty if you try to disassemble the lock...I might look at it and see.
@johnabbott81504 жыл бұрын
Watch the video from Silver Eagle Locksmith. He shows how to replace the standard key cylinder with a higher security one. Its easy to do. By the way, the standard cylinder with this lock has 6 pins vs 5 pins on most lower security deadbolts, making the standard cylinder more secure than most out of the box.

After two failed attempts to connect the Eufy Smart Lock with WiFi to my 2.4GHz network, I have returned them. I am very sad about that, as it would have incorporated nicely with my Eufy smart home. Now considering this Lockly unit. A few quick questions (before I order it): 1a - Does it really come with only two keys? 1b - Are they traditional keys that I can have duplicates made from? 2 - In the video you said that this unit cannot be scheduled to lock at a certain time of day. On the Lockly website it says it has an “Auto Lock” feature: “Set timers in advance to have your door lock automatically when you need it to.” Is this a schedule or a countdown timer, like, lock the door in 5 hours? But I know I can set a schedule in the Alexa app. Thank you again for another great video!
