Checking door specs
The Smart Door Lock can go on any standard exterior or interior door that you wish to control, as long as the frame can support the lock.
The door should be no thicker than 2 inches. The Smart Door Locks we provide can support any door handle except 1-piece handle-and-deadbolt combinations.
Check the door installation template provided with your package, to make sure your door thickness, and the holes for the lock and deadlatch are the right measurements.
If you have any questions about the compatibility of your door, reach out to a virtual Smart Home Pro.
Installation instructions
1. Carefully remove the old door lock from your door.
2. Remove the pre-programmed lock from your device box.
3. Install the deadlatch into the door, securing it with 2 wood screws. Make sure the latch is in the unlocked, horizontal position; that its up arrow is facing up; and that its center hole is in the middle of the door hole.
If necessary, you can elongate the deadlatch by pressing the black button on the bottom.
4. Attach the strike plate on the door frame, using the other 2 wood screws.
5. Place the lock keypad on the exterior side of the door, sending the cable indoors through the hole in the door.
6. Take the mounting plate, and guide the cable through its hole, as you place the plate against the inside of the door. Make sure the cable is tucked into the slot in the mounting plate.
Secure the mounting plate on the interior side of the door frame with the 2 long bolts provided.
7. Now, take the cable and attach it to the adaptor in the interior lock. Make sure the cable sits on the inside of the cable hook.
8. Place the locking mechanism into the door, with the shaft on the interior lock going into the latch hole.
9. Remove the battery cover from your interior lock. Then, secure the interior lock to the mounting plate frame with the 3 small machine screws provided.
10. Insert the 4 AA batteries into the lock. Reattach the battery cover, and power up the device by placing your hand on the keypad. You can test the locking mechanism by manually turning the lock.
11. Set up your master code by pressing the gear icon in the bottom right of your lock keypad, followed by a 4-8 digit combination, then pressing the gear icon again. You can also set up the master code in your web account.
