We use this to help others get in when we aren’t home. Works seamlessly. Our cleaners, extended family, and even kids sometimes appreciate the remote features!

Spent all that time installing it, just to find out you need a base station in order to operate it.

Sorry to hear that you had trouble! Yes, the Smart Lock is a component for the SimpliSafe home security system, and requires at least a Base Station to function.

Must have a SimpliSafe. Love it works with my system. People who are important have their own code and disables the alarm too.

Thought this would be bulky and not work right I was sadly mistaken. This is so slim and works seamlessly with the alarm system being able to arm the doors properly.

The first lock we received did not calibrate properly, so the rest of the system did not recognize it. We had to exchange it for another lock. The replacement works properly.

Bought to replace unit that stopped working. Biggest issue is sometime door stays locked and you are stuck inside as motor jams. Hopefully SimplSafe corrects this issue as it is great idea

Super convenient turns off alarm when you unlock the door so if you base isn’t close to the door it’s very nice!

Thanks for the review! Yes, our Smart Lock is similar to other models, designed to install over an existing deadbolt. If you don't already have one on your door, you'll want to install one of those as well.

Door is difficult to manually lock. Have seen others complain about this on forums. Makes it frustrating and can take a minute or so just to unlock the door

Purchased this on the website and had it shipped to my house. What it doesn’t say is you HAVE TO HAVE THE SECURITY SYSTEM to use it. Installed it, downloaded the app, then it tells you that you have to use the security base.
