great door lock once you have it set up.
Decided to upgrade and get one of these locks. 4 ways to access your home? why not.Physical installation was easy. I removed the old deadbolt and installed this within 5min. At this point, I can use the provided keys.Here’s where the “it’s my first time doing this” kicked in. It took me about 2-3 days of messing with this thing after work to get it set up right.I started with the Nice Digi app. I could connect to the gateway, but it would fail when trying to detect the network connection status. This is while it is plugged in next to my router. Once I changed to the Smart Life app, I was eventually able to see a good connection.Now, I can’t find the lock when searching for it.I can’t count how many times I tried resetting the lock itself. It’s working fine, I just couldn’t connect to it.On the third day, after reading up, trying to find videos to explain everything, I finally figured it out. It was so simple. While searching for the lock, you have to wake it up. After pressing the number pad to wake it up, I was able to connect to it. Biggest relief ever, I was about to 1-star it for wasting all this time.After connecting the lock to the app, all the other set-up with users, pins, fingerprints were pretty straight forward.Everything is working how it should.Sidenote, I thought we were past charging a fee for text messages or phone calls whenever someone lock/unlocks. Luckily the app has a built-in log that tracks that and also push notification.Overall, I am happy with the door lock. More family members can have access without me giving them a spare key. If I lose mine, I can still get in with my phone, a pin, or fingerprint. I’ll probably look back and wonder why it took me so long to get one of these.I would definitely recommend.

Smart lock
This smart lock comes with a lot of directions, so follow them very carefully. The app that they give you is easy to use and set up. Also, when installing the product it is easy to do they match just what the directions say to do. The lock function works great. You can either use your thumb, keypad or a key. The look of it is great so far when you use it, you canât tell where you press the numbers on it, which is great.

Nice Upgrade to Old Deadbolt Lock
I had an old traditional keyed Kwikset deadbolt lock on my backdoor that needed replacing so I upgraded to something significantly “smarter” with this model. I like that it has a variety of ways to utilize the lock (keys, fobs, fingerprints, numeric codes) as that provides flexibility for day-to-day use as well as one-time circumstances or if you have extended-stay guests. The installation was fairly straightforward and the instructions provided multiple ‘how-to’ videos via QR code to supplement the text directions. It was a drop-fit into the openings created for the Kwikset many years ago except for the door jamb, I had to modify it so that the new lock’s bolt could go in far enough to register as “locked” and not auto-retract thinking it was jammed. Both the interior and exterior portions have a thick gasket seal that makes it weatherproof once the halves are securely joined together. It’s powered by 4 AA alkaline batteries and setting it up in the NICE DIGI app is easy on your smartphone once you connect it via Bluetooth. I particularly like the flexibility of setting up users with multiple fingerprints for thumb and index fingers on the left and right hands so you don’t have to juggle stuff and can easily access it when carrying things. The fingerprint sensor is smaller than others and you do have to hit it just right for it to read correctly but it does allow multiple attempts before it locks you out. You also have the option of setting numeric passcodes or assigning key fobs (2 provided) to users as well. The only thing I wasn’t able to activate was the Alexa functionality via the provided mesh Gateway. It relies on the Smart Home skill in Alexa and I already have that assigned to another device/app combination from a different manufacturer, so I couldn’t use it with this lock to test it out. That’s not a dealbreaker for me as I don’t have much need for voice control of a door lock but it could be a stumbling point for others to watch out for. The gateway still allows for remote locking/unlocking via WiFi though and worked like a charm when I tested it out from my street and driveway beyond the 30-ft limit of Bluetooth connectivity. The gateway relies on a micro-USB/USB-A power cord and doesn’t come with a converter brick for use in a standard outlet, so you must provide your own if you don’t have a suitable way to plug it in. It’s a very capable lock for the price and a substantial upgrade from what I had before.

The manual also on the kucacci web site is poor at best.
The lock works no questions about that also the gateway works.Main reason for that is I have played with a lot of locks over the last few years.Kucacci claims that this lock works on Tuya, they even mention that in the manual, well i have or can’t figure it out. These things should work a lot better, and should be documented.

Multifunctional smart door lock
I am a frequent customer of Amazon. Today I ordered a set of keypad smart deadbolt. I received it on the same day. I was shocked when I opened it. This smart door lock also has multi-functions such as Wi-Fi connection, voice control, and remote control. It is really easy to use and convenient. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Here is the skinny
Works as advertised locks and unlocks with ease.Fingerprint, keypad code, tap card, and app lock and unlock work just fine.Works with Alexa and Google too.The build quality seems quite solid. I like the dark finish. Also most to all of it is made out of metal.It has some cool features. I also like how I can program it to auto lock.Dislikes come more from the information the app gives.It shows all the logs for unlocking and system changes but it doesnât show locking or when the physical key is used.There is no alert when the doe gets open or closed.
