Great video, tnx for sharing. I do think it is a safety feature not being able unlock the door if the app is not running, what if someone steals your phone? Question, does it unlock the door if the phone is locked while the app is running? 🤔 I got me the G2 pro kit, I could have saved a bit if I known this device existed 😹
It would be better to go straight to the lock than the reader. Too much at stake to rely on reader in my view. You can activate emergency via the app or desktop which will open all door or lock all doors depending on the requirement.
So I'm a little confused now with the electric lock option. We have a metal frame glass door out front that doesn't have a latch (like the little thingy that you'd turn a door knob to unhook the door from the plate/frame to open it). It's just a handle and you pull or push to open the door, and it has a lock that latches when we close up for the day. We want to do an electric lock but not sure if that would work in our door situation. Would the electric lock make the lock itself turn to lock/unlock as we push the Exit button (or swipe to enter), if that makes sense..? Or would we have to use the magnetic lock option since there's no door latch thingy?
A keypad would eventually show wear on the numbers, cutting down the options that a bad actor would need to try. NFC, phone or watch app is a great idea. That being said, I don’t want a smart lock in charge of my home security. Staying with multipoint lock and key! As the presenter shows; this is designed for enterprise usage, but I can see the appeal it will have to some home users.
