Lockly - Secure Plus Smart Lock Bluetooth Replacement Latch with Touchscreen/Fingerprint Sensor/Key Access/Auto Lock - Matte Black

Lockly Secure Plus is a solid mid-range smart lock for users who value biometric entry and multiple access methods but can tolerate some app and touchscreen quirks.

The Lockly Secure Plus Smart Lock offers a solid blend of security features with a touchscreen keypad, fingerprint sensor, and traditional key access, all wrapped in a sleek matte black finish. It excels in providing multiple entry methods, which is great for households with varying tech comfort levels. The fingerprint sensor is generally accurate and quick, making it convenient for daily use. Auto-lock functionality adds a layer of security by ensuring the door locks itself after a set time. However, the touchscreen can be a bit finicky in direct sunlight or wet conditions, sometimes requiring multiple attempts to register input. The app integration with Alexa and Google Home is functional but not as seamless or feature-rich as some competitors like August Smart Lock Pro. Setup typically takes around 30-45 minutes and requires some basic tools and DIY skills. This lock is perfect for users who want a versatile smart lock with biometric options but don’t mind a slightly longer setup process and occasional touchscreen quirks. Those who prioritize ultra-fast app control or deep ecosystem integration might want to consider alternatives. Also, the lock’s battery life is decent but not outstanding, usually lasting 6-9 months depending on usage, which is average for smart locks in this price range. Overall, it’s a good mid-tier option for people looking to upgrade from a traditional lock without diving into the highest-end smart lock market.
