I received a latch edition to review and while it didn't fit my front door perfectly, I enjoyed it so much I had to have one for my front entry door so I purchased the Satin Nickel Deadbolt edition. Some key distinctions between Lockly Secure versions, they are all compatible with the new Wi-Fi Hub, but the Secure is the base model with keypad and physical key. Plus adds fingerprint scanner. Pro has fingerprint and also adds the Wi-Fi hub. While its great Lockly made the Wi-Fi hub backward compatible with all 3 units, if buying new the Pro edition is the way to go without a doubt. So Lockly Secure locks with the Wi-Fi hub can control your lock at least 5 different ways, all of which are important but the two methods that are real game changers are the finger print reader and the remote/smart home controls enabled with the Wi-Fi hub. The fingerprint reader is the best method of entry for day-to-day usage but the remote access and lock/unlock is great in a pinch or emergency for guests, visitors and family members. Overall I think the deadbolt unit is the easier model to use and works great with existing hardware, but it does have some flaws detailed below: 1) If you leave your door ajar, after 30 seconds with auto-lock the bolt will extend even if the door isn't closed, meaning you need to manually close the bolt to close the door. It would be nice if the Wi-Fi door sensor prevented this from happening. 2) The inside door housing is not satin nickel it is plastic, unlike the latch edition. It doesn't feel cheap, but its not as premium as the latch edition. 3) Hardware is not universal. The deadbolt fit better than the latch edition which left holes everywhere, but its not going to be perfect for everyone. Make sure to check your hardware. The deadbolt fits perfect with my Schlage hardware. 4) Fingerprint reader is a problem for left in-swinging doors since it is close to the jamb. 5) Fingerprint reader is not as forgiving as iPhone touch ID. I had to register my index finger twice to get some shifted imprints to register. Still, my wife and I love this device and its easily one of our most appreciated tech home upgrades!!! The only real limitations are which door you want to protect with Lockly and whether or not it fits the existing holes in your door. Installation was simple, about 15 minutes using the manual rather than Bilt app and another 10 minutes to enable everything in the Lockly app. I only needed Phillips head screwdriver but a flathead may be useful as well to remove existing hardware. While it is expensive, the functionality and convenience it enables is well worth the increment in price.

This lockly product is awesome! If only I have more money, I would get the more advanced version with the doorbell and cam. Easy to install. Fits right through the existing door hole for replacement.

The LOCKLY works pretty good. Don’t have to worry about our kids having their keys. I’m still having troubles connecting the unit to WIFI.

Truly recommend this ,it fulfilled my expectations on what i wanted in a lock. So many options to choose from in access codes and fingerprints . And works with Alexa. Not disappointed at all.

Installation: I believe for my door the installation was easy because I was replacing a deadbolt lock. It took me about an hour because I took the LOCKLY secure pro off a few times to troubleshoot an issue with the lock and unlock. I have to admit I was trying to install the LOCKLY secure pro before thoroughly reading the installation manual. I missed >the hold the program button while inserting the last battery< which is probably one of the most important part of the install. My door also had a door lever so I had an extra hole in my door. To fix that I found a matching lever from my local hardware store which cost me an extra $30. I purchased one without a lock to make the LOCKLY secure pro convenient and free from any other lock. *see my pictures for the finished installation with the matching lever I purchased. To get the complete usability of the LOCKLY secure pro I recommend that you also install the secure link hub, wireless door sensors and the LOCKLY app. Features I like: Fingerprint access- I don’t need a key or a passcode any longer because I can now use my fingerprint to get in my house. I can also give up to 99 individuals fingerprint access. LOCKLY app- I can give passcode access to individuals anywhere at anytime and can revoke their access whenever I want. I no longer need to make copies of my key or leave keys with individuals. Log and notifications- Now I have a date, time log of anyone entering that door after I grant them access. Auto lock- I have an added peace of mind now knowing that my door is locked every time it’s shut because of the auto lock. Pin Genie- The touch pad always shuffle the buttons to make it impossible for lurkers to manipulate a code. The features listed above are my favorites but there are plenty more features that will make this smart lock meet the needs of many. Appearance and quality: The lock looks great on my door but you may need to be creative with touching up your hardwares and paint to enhance the look of your front entry. I’ve been using this for only a few days but so far it is functioning perfectly and also seems durable. Review conclusion: This is probably one of the best smart lock in the market because of all the security measures that are put in place to help keep us safe and secure. LOCKLY went as far as having the patent pin genie that scrambles the buttons every time you enter a passcode so the code never looks the same. I enjoy having the LOCKLY secure pro because of the features but I’m taking 1 star away only because I think they should include an optional lever with any deadbolt purchase. I will still recommend this to anyone looking for a smart lock because everything else is great. If you are interested in knowing more about my experience please ask me with a comment.
