That was a great video. These types of locks are on a lot of new houses near where I live. Weatherproof ones I’m assuming! It was great to put a face to the voice and watch you pick in situ. Like you said, it’s a lot different to on a desk in a vice.
Very informative review thank you. I've not seen a "smart" lock in action before. A bit disappointed it could be breached so easily with shimming and raking. I wonder if the lock notifies your phone if it has been breached or accessed by unapproved methods.
I would have to check the app and see if it alerts when it is opened with the key. But it does not seem to matter the brand you buy they are all usually built with easy to pick "backup" locks. However, in real life picking locks in the field is much more difficult and would raise attention so I have never worried too much about that myself. I would never consider installing high security locks on a door that has windows near it or anything that would make it much easier to breach than the lock.
Nice initial review. You could easily beef up the pin's or even put in a high security cylinder. I think more expensive versions would also have a deadlatch and RFID reader too. Pretty cool. ✌
can this door lock be installed into a securit glass door ?

Thank you for the kind words, I'm glad you liked it!
Great review buddy, I'm very glad that you bring up real world picking because it is a lot different than picking in the lab my friend. Great job.
Thank you for the kind words. And I agree, real world picking is a whole different ballgame.
Was all excited about the door lock as I'm thinking about getting one for my parents house. Bummed that it's not rated for outside weather.
Yeah, it is a bummer. I think they might be coming out with one down the road though.
Can you leave the door closed, but not locked?
Yes, I believe so but I can double check
Mine always lock when I close the door regardless if I slide it to the green and I hate it.
@@hawaiijamesmina5353 same. Arghhh! On the positive side, I've managed to open it more or less reliably from the first or second time.
please, buy some dw40 on that poor screaming door
Thank you for the suggestion
How long do the batteries usually last?
I haven't changed them since I made this video

Increasing the pick resistance on the cylinder would be a nice touch. Having RFID would be pretty cool as well. Thanks for checking it out!
Is it reversible to fit a L/H door.
Do you mean the handle? If so, it can be easily reversed
Can you mute the lock chimes?
Also, when you use the key or lockpick, how does it register on the entry log?
I can put the lock into a silent mode but for me I like hearing the feedback
What if there wasn't a key way?
Then you wouldn't be able to pick it and you'd have to find another way to exploit the lock
Very nice review.
Thank you for the kind words!

Por que en ingles

You said flaps😂
thanks for checking it out!
This lock is not worth a shit if it’s not water proof for the price.
I would love to see a weather proof one myself. Perhaps, they will improve it in later versions
