Perfect for airbnb check in

I had an august smart lock on my airbnb so that guests could check themselves in at any time. Unfortunately, not all guests are tech savvy, and many simply won't follow instructions no matter how simple. This keypad alleviates the problem a bit by giving people a tangible method of unlocking the door. it was very simple to install and the buttons light up for use at night. The lock won't work if you punch in the numbers to quickly or too slowly, but if you do it at a normal non rushed pace then it will work. The downside is that this won't update you app telling you when people come and go. Instead you have to link your phone to the lock periodically to gain that info.

Keypad works well

The keypad is nice for people without a phone like my kids or if you don’t want to reach for your phone all the time when outside your house. They like to run in and out with their friends and the keypad provides extra flexibility. What’s cool and unexpected is that you can make custom 4-6 digit codes for all users and even those that don’t have access to an app or cell phone at all. You can schedule how long you want the code active for on certain days. It’s very flexible. You can mount it with included screws. It’s small too like an estimated inch and a half from top to bottom. This is nice and all but I wish August would make little entry key tags that are supported by the app as well that you can put on a key chain. Something that when nearby the lock it has Bluetooth and either with a press of a button or just a tap on the door outside with it the lock would open up. That would make the August lock one of the best locks on the market in my eyes. It’s already top notch with the hub as it is.

Great product. Smaller than appears

Does as it says. Very easy to install. Much smaller than the pictures make it out to be (which is a good thing). The only thing that disappointed me about the product is the fact that you can't customize WHEN a guest can use their code. Once the guests have the code it's 24/7 access until you take it away. I wanted to have guests only have daytime access.

Good as new

Good as new. Works beautifully to open my August lock when the Bluetooth app fails, which is quite often! I attached it easily to the side of my mailbox, which keeps it out of the way.

2nd time was a charm....love this thing

We could not get the firmware updated on the first one (using cellphone), so a new one was shipped to us. We used an iPad mini to do the upgrade on the second one and we finally had success. We've been using this for several weeks now, with multiple keycodes setup for multiple dogsitters. Not one issue so far. Love the ease of setup; and tracking of who comes in. The August lock is awesome too. We use the bridge as well so we can remotely unlock from anywhere.

MUST BUY if you are buying an August lock

This is what sold my wife on the unit. I had the Kevo which allowed me to lock the door as we left the house. They kept screwing up their app. I decided to go with the August but almost returned it when I found out I had to lock the door manually when we left the house. (No GPS based locking!?! it is only timed locking based off of when the door is unlocked). I tried to use gps based locking through apple home kit. It would not do it unless I had the phone unlocked and gave it approval. Anyhow. When we leave the house, we press the red august button on the bottom and it locks the door. We use the gps based unlock to have the door unlock as we drive up to the house. When that does not work fast enough, we can quickly type in a code. This is a must buy if you are going with the August lock.

I like that feature and I hate to turn it off ...

I was a little worried about this purchase based on some of the reviews. I have had the lock and keypad for two months and so far no issues. I was having trouble for the first week but I eventually replaced the battery and the keypad has functioned correctly every time since the battery change. I initially just had the lock installed for about day without the keypad and I agree with some of the other reviewers that this should just come with the lock by default in particular if you have auto-lock enabled. I like that feature and I hate to turn it off and on so when I'm just stepping out forms few minutes not carrying my phone or wearing my smart watch the keypad is a must have.

Love it, should have gotten it earlier!

Love this keypad. I have been an August lock user for years now and love the lock. I never used the auto-lock function/setting on the app/lock because I always felt I would leave my keys or phone behind and would get locked out of the house (the auto lock works on a timer function). However, once we got the keypad we didn’t need to give anyone physical keys (that can be copied) to enter our house (house keeper, friends, family). We simply assign them a code and set when and how they can use it and it tells you which code was used and by which user whom you assigned. Also the single press to lock function (by pressing the red August logo at the bottom) also makes is super convenient to lock your house immediately after leaving! Definitely increases the functionality of your August lock and gives you extra piece of mind.

Worth double the cost.

So I absolutely love my August lock, the auto unlock feature as I get home it's just the best thing ever. That means said the auto lock feature has a bit to be desired. I would much rather have it auto lock when I leave the house then on a timer or immediately after the door closes. That's where this bad boy comes into play! This thing is fantastic. Just to list my favorite features. It was very easy to connect, the material and finish seems very high-end and durable and quite appealing, you can push a single button to lock the door when you leave which deals with the issue of auto lock not being great and it's a fantastic backup for when you forgot to have your location on your phone enabled and the auto-lock isn't engaged

Great design and functionality

Love that the buttons are soft and easy to use. I also like the design, simplicity, and colors. I installed the August Pro Smart Lock from inside leading into garage and the key pad in the garage so that when I get locked out, I can key my pin. Also, my kids can put the pin to enter without needing to knock when they come home. You can also assign pins to individuals so you know who entered. Love the August products
