It enables remote access, voice control, and automated locking, making it especially valuable for short-term rentals like Airbnbs and vacation homes where convenience and security are essential.
Built on the SwitchBot ecosystem, this lock emphasizes simplicity and compatibility.

Benefits & Use Cases
This smart lock excels in scenarios where traditional keys pose challenges. For vacation rental owners, it eliminates the need to coordinate physical key handoffs, allowing instant guest check-ins via shared digital access. Homeowners benefit from the ability to let contractors or neighbors enter without being physically present, while parents can grant children independent entry after hours.
The auto-lock feature reduces the risk of accidentally leaving doors unlocked, a common concern for travelers or busy individuals. Combined with real-time activity logs and instant notifications, users gain full visibility into who accessed their space and when. This level of oversight is particularly useful for monitoring second homes or rental units managed remotely.
Because the SwitchBot Smart Lock doesn’t alter your original deadbolt mechanism, it remains fully functional as a backup system. In case of connectivity issues or power outages, the mechanical keyway ensures continued access—maintaining reliability without compromising convenience.
Important Notes
- The package includes the SwitchBot Smart Lock unit and 3M adhesive strips for mounting. No additional tools or professional installation services are required.
- Ensure your smartphone is compatible with the SwitchBot app and supports Bluetooth/WiFi connectivity for initial pairing and ongoing use.
- Lock performance may vary depending on surface material and environmental conditions; clean the mounting area thoroughly before applying adhesive.
- Battery life is approximate and depends on frequency of use and network stability.
Why Choose SwitchBot?
SwitchBot believes that going smart shouldn’t mean going complicated. Our mission is to make home automation accessible, affordable, and effortless. The Smart Lock WiFi embodies this philosophy—delivering powerful features without sacrificing ease of use.
Unlike many smart locks that demand structural changes or expensive retrofits, the SwitchBot Smart Lock simply sticks onto your existing deadbolt. There’s no need to replace your door hardware, rewire your home, or hire an electrician. Just peel, stick, and connect. That kind of simplicity opens up smart living to everyone—from tech newcomers to seasoned renters.
For property managers overseeing multiple units, the ability to instantly issue and revoke access digitally saves countless hours and reduces the risk of lost or duplicated keys. Guests appreciate the seamless check-in process, arriving directly at the door without waiting for hosts. And because the lock maintains its physical key backup, there’s never a situation where someone gets locked out due to technical glitches.
The integration with major voice assistants means you can lock or unlock your door just by speaking—perfect for when your hands are full carrying groceries or helping kids with backpacks. And with end-to-end encryption, every command sent between your phone and the lock is secured against interception or tampering.
Practical Tips for Setup & Use
Before installing, wipe both the lock base and your door’s deadbolt housing with isopropyl alcohol to remove dust and oils—this helps the 3M adhesive bond more effectively and ensures long-term stability.
During initial setup, make sure your Wi-Fi signal is strong near the door. If your router is far away, consider using a dual-band extender or placing the lock closer to your network source during pairing.
When sharing access, take advantage of the time-based permissions feature. For example, set a contractor’s access to expire after two hours, or give a pet sitter entry only during daylight hours. These small touches add layers of security without extra effort.
If you live in an area with frequent power outages, note that the lock runs on batteries and will function normally until they run low. You’ll receive battery-low warnings through the app well in advance, so you can replace them before any disruption occurs.
Ideal For:
- Airbnb and vacation rental hosts seeking contactless guest access
- Homeowners wanting to eliminate forgotten keys and improve daily convenience
- Renters who cannot modify their leased property’s door hardware
- Families needing temporary access for babysitters, housekeepers, or elderly relatives
- Tech-savvy users building a broader smart home ecosystem with other SwitchBot devices

This is a good product.
This is a simple device that is easy to install and use. We had to use it because of our Medeco security locks. I replaced my Sesame lock with it. It would be nice if the APP had a few more features, such as auto-unlock when approaching the door, but the mechanism is smooth and excellent.

Installed in a classroom door
Teacher here. I bought this bundle back in early November 2022, but didn’t get to install it until the last week of November. Since I teach in a classroom of 24 students, I wanted to wait until the Switch Bot Lock ran out of batteries before I wrote my review. TL;DR at the end of the review.I work at an elementary in the southern United States and after everything that happened last year, my school district now requires to have all doors locked at all times, including classrooms. So, this created an annoyance in which the teacher, or assigned students, unlock and lock the door whenever a person or student goes in or out of the classroom. It wasn’t that bad until I started noticing how often the door needed to be unlocked and locked, which started affecting instructional time. So being the techy that I am, I started looking for something that would convert my classroom door deadbolt into a smartish deadbolt that wasn’t too expensive, since it was coming out of my pocket, and that it didn’t need major deadbolt modification to work. The Switch Bot Lock ended up being exactly what I wanted. Knowing that it only installs over the deadbolt, is removable, and allows manual unlocks/locks, whether by hand or key, was the perfect solution.Once I got approval from my principal to install this lock, I had it up and running the following day. Installation was simple and setup was just as easy through the app. The only thing that might possibly cause it to not work is connecting the hub to the school internet. You would have to check if you can use the school internet for that first. That’s why I had to get approval first. Other than that, connecting it to the internet and finishing up the set up was a breeze.Once installed, it was only then that the locking and unlocking annoyance went away. I was shocked to find out that my door was locked and unlocked roughly 300 times a day! This sounds like a lot, and it is, but it isn’t only students that are coming in an out of the classroom, other teachers, admin, janitors, and so on.I also ended up installing the finger print keypad outside my door so that students could enter the classroom freely, without having to use the doorbell given to us (another annoyance in itself). They know the passcode and they were told not to give it to anyone else. So far, no other students, other than my own, have entered the classroom with the code. I did give the finger print reader 4 stars though since it doesn’t really work with a child’s finger, hence why the use a code instead. Other than that, it works just fine.I also purchased the Switch Bot Button and paired it with the lock so that I could have full control of when the door unlocks. I didn’t want to only rely on the app on my phone since I tend to leave my phone on my desk while teaching.Now, on to the battery life. Like I mentioned above, the door opens roughly 300 times daily. I just got the low battery notification today (1/17). So, it’s about a month and a half, to two month battery life span. It isn’t the best, but I rather deal with changing batteries every two months or so than going back to locking and unlocking the door.Conclusion:If you’re a teacher being required to have your door locked at all times, and you’re in the fence on getting this because you’re not sure if it works or not, it does. It’s one last thing we now have to worry about. Not only do my students and myself love to see the door lock and unlock itself, it has wowed my coworkers and administrators as well. I would definitely buy this all over again.TL;DR:Teacher installs this smart lock on classroom door to relieve the hassle of unlocking and locking a door 300 times a day and gets, roughly, a two month battery life span.

I particularly appreciate the remote access feature, which lets me unlock the door for guests without having to be physically present.The real highlight came during a recent family gathering. With hands full of groceries and kids running around, I was able to unlock the door with just a tap on my phone. The SwitchBot Smart Lock has not only streamlined our daily routines but also added an extra layer of security and convenience. If youâre looking for a high-tech upgrade to your homeâs entrance, this smart lock is definitely worth considering.

Worked well at first but started jamming after 3 months.
Update: When I initially bought this it worked really well for about 3 months. Then, it began to jam, it wouldn’t open the latch and I couldn’t open the latch myself. I had to remove it completely in order for the door to lock and unlock. Upon closer examination, it seemed that it had been moving slightly every time the lock was locked or unlocked. I didn’t have the time to reinstall again until a couple of weeks ago. This time, it didn’t even work at all. It kept jamming from the start. I couldn’t lock or unlock the door, not even manually. I had to again completly remove it. Now, I don’t have anymore of the 3m tape left and I’m wondering, is it even worth it to try again since it didn’t work at all the second time. The completely ridiculous thing, which I didn’t know when I bought it, is that there is a one year warranty, which should still well be valid, except that Switchbot will not honor it unless it’s been purchased from their website. So if you’re in a similar position to mine and you’ve bought their product anywhere other than their website, you’re out of luck. These people seem to care so much about helping you when you first buy their product but after that, when they’ve got a good review from you, it’s radio silence, you’re on your own. I really wanted to like this, I wish it had continued to work and work consistently.I bought this Switchbot lock because I wanted a smart lock but I didn’t want the hassle of changing out my existing lock. This worked out perfectly. I got the lock, touch Keypad and mini hub combo which you’ll need if you want to be able to access the lock or door lock status remotely. Installation was pretty simple. The only thing I was a little frustrated with was that the installation video links were not included in the manual and I had to go looking for them. Also, the tool to open the battery door of the keypad was included but they didn’t say in the manual what it is supposed to be used for and that was a little frustrating too. But once I found the installation videos everything became clear and from then on it was so simple to install and set up. Now I can lock/unlock the door from anywhere I have an internet connection. I have multiple ways to lock/unlock the door. And I can check to ensure that I’ve locked the door from anywhere with an internet connection. And I can still use my existing key in case of emergencies or when there’s a power outage. All without drilling fresh holes in my door. I love this product.

La cerradura quedó completamente inservible después de un año y 1 mes exacto de uso, muy sospechosamente al final de su garantÃa; durante 3 meses de enviarles pruebas y muchos correos, la gente de switchbot al las pruebas de su mal funcionamiento (que no tenÃa nada que ver con el uso que le di, si no con defectos propios, estuvieron de acuerdo) solo pudieron responder: âaay pues sÃ, necesitas un reemplazo porque no sirve, pero pues ya no tienes garantÃa :(, pero noo te preocupes :D, puedes comprar el nuevo en nuestra pagina!â Un descaro y una burla al consumidor, una pésima empresa con pésimos productos.

It didnât work for me which is I guess due to kind of Lock I had (it is a bit hard to turn which caused the failure I believe ).But if I had a different mechanism I will still buy the product as it is a small sturdy product and was very easy install. Took me less than 5 minutes and it works as advertised. I believe if I had a smoother mechanism for my lock this would have worked fine.A quick update : I reached out to company before my return and they confirmed my suspicion as well that it was type of lock mechanism I had which caused the fail. I will recommend this product to anyone who looking for a small gadget which is so easy to install and works as advertised.
