i got a question, since the key must to always stay n the cylinder, so the door can not be opened from outside by the key, because when there's key on the door from one side the key can not open it , at least our door is like this
You have to test your door first. Newer doors are built so that you can still open it from the outside with a key, even if there is a key stuck in the other side.
I think the solution to this is changing the cylinder of your lock, you have to install one with “emergency” function, in Germany it’s called Not- und Gefahrenfunktion. Changing the cylinder is a rather simple operation and not so expensive, you can find ton of videos about that, and if I managed everyone can manage 😅 Just first unmount your current cylinder, take the measure and put it back until you receive the new one
Thank you , Im planning to install this on my home too. I want to ask 2 questions: 1. Is this the only model in Europe out there , that can fit the Euro style cylinder, are there better ones than this? 2. I plan to get the Nuki 3 (not the pro). Do I need a bridge with that too ?
Hi Ben! There are other similar models, but I find the Nuki is a great product, from the standpoint of mechanical design, and software as well. With the 3.0 you’ll still need the bridge, if you want a remote connection. The 3.0 Pro comes with Wi-Fi capabilities, but it’s super expensive. Cheers, Tom

Do you know if it will work also if, with my lock, the rest position of the key is horizontal?

Do you not have to lift the handle to engage the locking mechanism?
