We ended up exchanging this model for the slimmer version th-cam.com/users/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU because it was too wide for the only door trim area that made sense to mount it on. However, we should have just noted the dimensions prior to purchasing. Otherwise, we love the doorbell. It works perfectly, and the video is very clear, even at night.
I wasn't interested in the install but it was funny to watch. I'm a retired general contractor and I made my career building schools. I've installed thousands of door hardware sets in hundreds of different scenarios. Everything from complex $2000 lock sets to $10 privacy sets. Every mistake is glaring to me and humorous to see. To start with, you probably didn't even need to change the striker plate in the door jamb and everything after just made me grin. I just wanted to see how it works and how it's charged. Thanks for sharing.
Same...it's a bit slanted. Mine did the same thing. However its not very noticeable. Thank you so much for your video. Extremely helpful. The paper instructions they sent wiyh the pkg.....🤯 made no sense to me.
Thanks for the video. Just installed ours. Did yours last a long time? Does it still work? Also we tried unlocking it with the keys that came with and it didn't work. Do the batteries need to be put in there for the physical key to work?
Thank you for the video, I did myself the same steps to install, and not been a nuclear engineer ,did work. But I have to replace the batteries almost every three weeks. Its really how long it lasts??? If so, I need to create a membership/partnership with Duracell...oh boy.. Can anyone ,please let me know If I did something wrong....doesn't look so high tech changing batteries so often.. Thank you all.
Can you push the latch with your finger? when the door is open and its lock after 5seconds? I mean with the inside handle you can operate the latch when its locked, so could you push the latch in with the finger too? thanks
I'm using mine in a similar use case, it's to keep my kids out of my wood shop. So security is not really a concern. Be aware that anyone who has access into the room (because the door was left open, or they were allowed in) can add their finger print to the lock. There is no way to know that additional users have been added.
engineers not thinking about this is pretty stupid. the least they could've done is to make it so that you need the original owner to use their fingerprint to make another user otherwise it wont allow a 2nd user. like if admin user left his computer without logging off doesn't mean you can just make a new user, it asks for the admin password. sounds like a common flaw that engineers should know about and update their program
I have solved it and it works for me: When you install the door and put in the batteries you have to use that tiny screw driver and poke the tiny hole and hold it for a few seconds. It flashes blue then when it flashed red let go and place you fingerprint on the sensor. Press you finger 5 times then it automatically registers your finger and no one else can open the door. If you want to add another person then once again use the tiny screw driver, poke the hole for a few secs when it flashes blue let go and put your fingerprint on the sensor to firstly verify you want to add a new fingerprint, then add the second persons fingerprint and then when you let go it will unlock for you and the 2nd person only :) hope this helps
I bought this for only $15 directly from china, and I could use tuya app for wifi remote controlling. Nice toy, but indoor purpose only for security reason.
I said right at the beginning of the video I was just trying to keep a child out of the room. He's not going to be able to reach the keys above the door
Lmao he installed the door plate backwards you pay for what you get I just bought one of these bio locks and they work amazing once programmed properly not this version or model another one.

I noticed this video was posted 9 months ago. Is there by any chance you'll post a update video on how it's doing?
Thanks for the video on the install.

Hey I'm just surprised I was able to do it at all haha thanks for watching!
For the record, I could install that in under 2 minutes, not counting getting tools out and putting them away 😉
@@TheToyRoom The next one will be easy. It's good to learn new skills. Good job.
i like how he says we instead of i it makes me feel like im there doing it with him
Liking video for peeling on screen… so satisfying
Awesome man. Thanks for putting this out for us.
Great video, as I am not inclined to doing household projects as well, I have made the same exact mistake on the last door lock I swapped out
Will the fingerprint work if Someone else does it will it open or will it open only if u do ur finger print like a iPhone

This is just amazing.I need to buy this for my whole house

I'm still using the same batteries from when I installed mine
@@TheToyRoom ,I don't get it. How long since your install ??
@@MrFabiolago When I posted this video. I think a little over a year
Thanks
The different length pieces are for thicker doors
This guy was only trying to protect his action figures in the room loll
Helped me with adding my finger print. Thanks
how do you do it im still struggling
some people say different fingerprints can still open the door, try it.
I had that issue until I searched for the manual online by KPP (the one that comes with the handle is rubbish) and I got it to work and had no issues
Can you push the latch with your finger? when the door is open and its lock after 5seconds? I mean with the inside handle you can operate the latch when its locked, so could you push the latch in with the finger too? thanks
Can those keys be duplicated for other family members?
Yes I had them done with a standard key cutter charged me a fiver per key

Dam u right
But they won’t know how to
Hey how many finger prints can be added?

What website if you don't me asking? Looking to replace my door knobs
Can be 2 users?
Thanks brotha!!
No problem!
Great video mate! going to order one now! Cheers
Psst! The big kid is already in the room.
Can't help but think that the visiting young child would likely be more adept at fitting the lock.
Nice video... Glad to see the uploads👍🏿
Thanks! 👍
What if it low battery?
You just change the battery. It will indicate if the battery is low and it also comes with the keys in case the battery dies
This item really sucks, the lock will still open even if you dont register your fingerprint, so there is no security in here,
I think that's called a satin finish
You did not show how to register the user finger
No because my camera died as I was recording, but I stated how to do it after the fact
Mount the spare key above the door🤦♂️ what would be the point of getting a door lock lol.
I said right at the beginning of the video I was just trying to keep a child out of the room. He's not going to be able to reach the keys above the door
6:18 he is filming with a phone as you can see in the door handle’s reflection
That's my camera on a tripod not my phone
@@TheToyRoom it looks like a phone lol.
Even if he was what’s the big deal
How does the battery go😂
Same question. I have no idea where or how to install the batteries
Lmao he installed the door plate backwards you pay for what you get I just bought one of these bio locks and they work amazing once programmed properly not this version or model another one.
Yes I made a mistake on my very first attempt at ever trying something like this 🤷♂️
@@TheToyRoom You are young and time is all we have enjoy and keep up the great work.
My boy
😎😎😎
@@TheToyRoom what does the button on the back do
@@grimboi1581 Reset button
Flat head screw driver. Hahaha. In England, it is called a flat beak.
Your video is backward... lol
Get to the point... the installation with helpful walkthrough -- no one clicked on the link for your backstory !!
It's almost like I didn't put time stamps in the very beginning of the video 🤦♂️
Its a full review by another user not a manufacturers instalation video.
