Frequently Asked Questions
Best Smart Lock?
Schlage Encode (WiFi) is our top pick for reliability and remote access. Kwikset Halo is also excellent. For renters, August fits over your existing lock.
Power Outage?
Batteries! Smart locks run on AA batteries, so they work even if the power is out. Plus, they all have a mechanical key backup just in case.
Hacked?
Extremely unlikely. They use bank-level AES encryption. The bigger risk is someone guessing your code "1234" (don't do that).
Battery Life?
Expect 6-12 months. The app will warn you weeks in advance when they get low.
Installation Time?
About 45 minutes. We handle the physical install, the app setup, and the WiFi connection so you're ready to go instantly.
