Simple Battery-Operated Biometric Lock
This biometric lock fits into the deadbolt area of our door. Due to the width of the keypad we did have to do a slight modification to some protruding door trim nearby, but it was minimal and barely visible. Banskey provides a step by step video as well as written instructions that are very helpful. All the programming is done right on the keypad after installation. There is no app, software, WIFI or wiring required.The lock can be programmed for fingerprint recognition, numeric passwords, and a personal master numeric password. The lock also comes with conventional keys so you can open it without using a fingerprint.Works like a charm.

Not a fan
Installation was easy enough especially with the helpful video. Thatâs about where my satisfaction with this door lock ends. This lock is marketed as a smart lock but there is nothing smart about it. I understand this lock is intended to keep all setting such as pin codes, fingerprints, settings store local (which is a plus); sadly it does not appear to integrate with anything – no Google Home, no Home Assistant, nothing. It’s not a connected device which makes it virtually useless with smart home integration. Iâm not sure why they are considering this a smart lock.I appreciate this lock coming with a physical key. However, it would be nice if you could re-key the lock so it matches the other keys for my other locks. Not a fan of needing to carry around another key just for this one lock.Finally, and this is the reason I likely wonât continue using this lock, I feel like the product is made out of too much plastic, especially the part that faces the outside. I’m relatively confident I could break into my house by smashing the lock from the outside which would provide easy access to the inner mechanism for the physical key.Great attempt at a smart lock but you missed the point on what âsmartâ is all about. Also, providing a physicall access control that’s made of plastic is a very bad idea. I donât recommend.

Love the finger print feature
We have 6 doors and 4 of them have electronic ones. When we buy new units we move them around to where it would be more useful as the newer ones have better features. My husband is by no means handyman but we install these ourselves always. It took us around 15 – 20 minutes to take out the old one and put this one in even after having to sand down the area where flat metal piece goes, because my old one had smaller piece. I love this lock, love the finger print feature. Hereâs some pros & cons.1. This unit has no Wi-Fi connection, if you need Wi-Fi, this is not it.2. Very reasonable price for a very good unit3. Finger print feature works really well, I was pleasantly surprised4. Simple to install and very simple to program5. If you need to delete any fingerprint, youâll only have option to delete all but itâs so easy to add it back on (it literally takes a few seconds) that itâs not a problem.

Very functional, need more color selection
We like to enter our garage from the backyard to gather supplies, but itâs often locked and we have to walk all the way around. That was my reasoning for getting this device.Pros â install was fairly straightforward, about 20 mins of work via a handyman. Programming took maybe 30 mins and was also straightforward. Customer service was responsive with my questions. The device serves its purpose and we can now easily enter the garage from the backyard / side door.Cons â the device only comes in one color and it happens to be a matte silver on one side and brown on the other; I wish it was the same color on both sides. Also, we forgot to press the set button to calibrate, so that took up some time, but was a fairly quick fix, especially after emailing the company. Finally, the programming is easy to follow when you have the instructions in front of you, but I think we will be lost when it comes time to adding a new personâs fingerprints to the software. We will certainly need to look up the programming guide online when itâs time to edit the saved fingerprints or change the unlock code.Overall, Iâd give this a solid 4.5 stars. Add a few more color options and it can be a solid 5.

Nice Dead Bolt Lock – But No WIFI
Nice lock for the price but it is not WIFI enabled.I had recently purchased several WIFI enabled door locks for my recently acquired 1932 home. I loved the fact that I could be alerted when someone opens any of the doors via the company’s phone app.This unit was very easy to install and took me about 10 mins to complete. Another 10 mins to read and set new combos and add fingerprints. One area that I initially missed was calibrating the door bolt using the SET button inside the battery area. If you do not calibrate the bolt, you will hear the unit trying to lock but results in a error message.The installation video was very clear and well put together. Unless you have a great memory, you will want to keep the written instructions that are provided so you can make changes later (add/change/remove combos and fingerprints).I will keep this since I wasn’t planning to buy another lock for this infrequently used door but it works as advertised. The thumbprint reader seems to work quite good when the fingerprint is free of dirt or moisture.

Fingerprint reader accurate and extremely responsive
The Banskey Keypad Fingerprint Deadbolt Electronic Door-Lock is a fantastic addition to my home in going completely keyless. Installation was straightforward, taking less than 20 minutes. The fingerprint recognition is fast and accurate, unlocking in under a second. I enjoy the access options for the PIN and fingerprint mainly, but you can also use a keyâan extraordinarily versatile and secure entry method. I intend to purchase more for all my exterior entry points as I am delighted with this purchase. It is about a third of the price of other deadbolt fingerprint/PIN locks. I highly recommend the Banskey Fingerprint Deadbolt Lock for anyone looking to upgrade their home locks at a reasonable price.
