Sifely Smart Lock for Front Door, Fingerprint & Keypad Entry, Black

When it works it is great, purchased in December but by Feb the lock did not always unlock. Not the batteries but the plastic plunger that activates the handle. Difficult to replace as it was over 30 days but managed in the end. Now on the second one so see if it’s a one off failure or a design fault.

This was a great lock and I'll be getting more in the future. Easy to install and program. Worked great and comes with a key fob for easy opening. I bought this for my ski locker at a vacation rental of mine and I love being able to give my guest a key fob and passcode. Love having my finger print programmed so I don't have to worry about having a key on me. They also have a hard key back up in case the battery dies on you! It was easy to set it up and program it. Only drawback is if you want to access remotely you do need to pick up an additional gateway to connect to it, however at the price point this came in at I wouldn't have an issue picking up the gateway. Will pick up for future rentals

Easy to install and use, setup was a breeze. I added all fingerprints swiftly and it works flawlessly. Fits behind my screen door with no issues and looks very nice on my door. My one gripe was there is no QR code to download the app (have to search TT Lock on the store).

First off, please realize that you will likely have to relocate your deadbolt (if you have a deadbolt). This is pretty common with these smart handle locks because they're so tall they would bump into the deadbolt if you tried to install in the normal place. So make sure you can work with that. I thought the instructions were pretty easy to follow. If you have zero experience installing a door knob, you should probably watch a Youtube or two first just to get how it's supposed to work. The lock looks very nice. I appreciate that the battery and everything is located inside the house. The keypad does read when I push on it so that's cool. I liked that there were many different options to access the lock so you don't always have to worry about having internet or a dead battery or remembering a code or having the physical key or keycard, etc. I will say that it's a struggle to get the fingerprint reader to read sometimes. I've added myself twice to the unit so it should have an even better chance at recognizing me but sometimes it does take 7 or 8 tries to get in. THAT SAID: the lock gets SUPER hot in the afternoon due to the setting sun and perhaps the heat makes it less accurate. It's possible that it would read the fingerprint better if it wasn't boiling hot. I DO like the keypad but....you have to know it's there. If you don't know it's there, you wouldn't be able to tell. It just looks like a blank door knob. So you have to poke the area the keypad is in before the numbers light up. THEN you can use the keypad. Not a big deal but I'm not sure it will work great if you had an AirBNB or something because guests might not intuitively understand that they need to touch the blank handle before the numbers will light up. I also think it's weird that you can't lock the handle from the inside. Like, there's no button to do that, apparently? And when you want to lock the door after you leave, you have to hit the * symbol on the keypad (or I believe you can lock it from the app) which is fine but not exactly intuitive. So, again, if you had AirBNB guests, they'd have to read your instructions to lock the door and we all know people struggle to read instructions...lol. There IS an autolock feature which is great if it's your house and just you and the fam come in and out. But if you have AirBNB guests, I don't think the autolock option is ok to leave on because guests aren't going to memorize their codes and what if they get locked outside without their phone? They'd have no way to figure out what the code is OR any way to contact you. However, I do really like the lock and all the features so I would recommend buying it and giving it a try. Just one thing to note for those who care: you don't need WiFi to set up or use this lock. It connects to your phone via Bluetooth and once it's set up, you don't even need Bluetooth. Just use the fingerprint or keypad or keycard, etc. I believe you can set up the lock to work with WiFi but I believe you'd have to purchase a second gateway or something and plug it into your house and I don't have internet so.... yeah.

This door knob is the cats meow! I work nights and I got sooo tired of every morning when I got home and am so tired I'd forget to keep my keys in hand till I unlocked the old knob and would throw them in my big ol bag of crap to then get annoyed bc I had to then dig for them so I seen this knob and the price was right so I figured eh why not?! It was very easy to install with the instructions and video. Had it installed and registered with the app in less than half hr. Came with 2 reg keys n 2 fob cards. I haven't gotten the gateway yet but I really don't see a need for it right now. Finger unlock is my favorite, works awesome, fast and easy. I like how the app generators a code for u for pretty much anything either permanently, one time use, you can even schedule it for certain days and times many choices. I set mine to a certain code, every weekday at between 3-4p when my kid gets home from school just in case he forgets his fob at home (he's 11). My disabled mother lives with me and I registered her finger print with the app so now I don't ever have to worry of her getting locked outside. The app is easy to use and understand and can be linked with yr email and cell number... It's absolutely awesome 👍🏽👍🏽 I get in my house quicker then I did with old school 🗝️ will be buying more for the other doors in my house.

Seems to be working good so far. Set up was easy. Make sure you enter your finger print about 10 different times. Much better recognition success rate that way. The reason I dropped off 1 star was due to the fact the handle is only able to be pushed down. You can not raise the handle up to get in or out the door. Really weird if you’re in the habit of lifting your door handle up to open the door.
