Smart Mortise

Nowadays, new condominiums and apartments are being developed, and in case you didn't know, more millennial working adults are in favour of using smart locks for better security measures. If you're actually looking for one, perhaps you can try out these smart lock products from Hafele (a home appliance brand from Germany) - the Smart Mortise, Smart Deadbolt 2S and a Smart Keybox.

So let's start off with the Smart Mortise lock, there are four kinds of password access via PIN code, Bluetooth key, physical key or a card. Phew, that's a lot of security measures but don't worry, it also has an anti-panic exit system by allowing you to open the door through the pulling down on the lock handle from inside, without having to twist a separate thumbturn. But just in case strangers try to do that, it will intelligently sound the alarm, as well as ceasing to operate for 3 minutes whenever an invalid PIN code is entered 5 times. You can even fool your stalker by entering random digits before or after the PIN code.

Meanwhile, the Smart Deadbolt 2S has only three password access (PIN, Bluetooth and physical key, but it also features a privacy mode to prevent electronic entry from the outside which in turn will sound the alarm. By the way, both the Smart Mortise and Deadbolt lock requires 4 AA batteries too, when the batteries are draining, a signal will give off to let you know.

For the Smart Keybox, it's quite a unique lock with a big lock shape design allowing you to store up to 6 physical keys or 7 keycards; allowing you to store essential items in it via 2 modes of access (PIN and Bluetooth key). It can also be shackled to handles, grilles, or mounted to a wall using four screws and requires 4 AAA batteries. Furthermore, the keybox automatically relocks once it is shut, thus providing extra security, along with ceasing to operate if you type the wrong PIN 5 times.
