I really like it except one thing it’s got a pretty bad flaw. If it’s too awfully cold, the screen won’t come on and I’m talking like it was 12° here yesterday and screen wouldn’t come up enough for me to even see it. Also if the sun is directly shining on it, it’s not bright enough for you to see the numbers. They need to make it brighter or give you the ability to make some kind of adjustment for it.
We bought a Secure Plus when it first came out with the WiFi option. It was pretty good, but the children had issues with the finger sensor. The door sensor was a bit bulky and requires a AAA battery to be changed out occasionally. The front panel went out about three years in. I bought a new Secure Plus, and i have to say it has better functionality. The fingerprint reader has drastically improved and has been tested using children's fingerprints. The bolt mechanism is quieter and faster, possibly using less battery draw. A new door sensor connects directly to the base, doesn't require a battery, and blends in well with the door. The installation was easy. The app detected the new Lockly and connected to the WiFi and sensor without an issue. The firmware update was still a bit slow, but it went smoothly. Of course, I couldn't transfer my fingerprints, but re-adding them was simple and seemed easier than before. Overall, this was a good investment, and I am looking forward to years of use. I suggest this product over the competition as it has been quite stable and never stopped working.
I bought this lock to replace a Schlage keypad lever lock. Although this lock is 3x the price of the Schlage, it’s many more time the quality and features. Well worth the money.
