What is the best keyless entry with remote control.

Hello,

 

I have a property in another State which so I would like to have control from my State and change the lock codes and give codes to different people like my cleaning crew, handyman, neighbor, etc.  What would you recommend.  I would like to get one that won't require another drilling.  I did buy one and we put it on and had a hard time connecting it to WiFi, and then we noticed that it replace the door knob, so now we needed to buy a door know.  We removed it and returned it. Any suggestions?

 

Thank you,

I've seen them all, they do  not include a handle.  I had installed a Kwikset based on videos made by youtubers and we just couldn't connect to wifi, and then noticed we had to buy a handle and drill a hole for access from outside and exit from inside.  I prefer to buy one with it all so that I won't have to drill a hole.  I found eufy C33 which is the winner as it has key, keyless and fingerprint entry, cool thing is USB connect if the battery dies for some reason (I will put a lockbox outside with a short usb cord to iPhone and Android and opens instantly and I can provide acces codes to different users, i.e., handyman, cleaning lady, guest, etc.  

 

Thanks for checking.

Thank you ,@blBhumika

We also use the Eufy (diff model S330). The only downside is you can't schedule a specific time the code is active. For example, you want the code to only be active at check-in time (say 3pm) and expire at check-out time (say 11am). That functionality for specific times was not available - at least for the S330 in the eufy app.

Hi Dorris, I have installed a Ruveno weatherproof smartlock. I find it amazing, I have let people into the house for deliveries while in work. I set passcodes for guests (last four digits of their cell number). It works great batteries last about 1 year. The lock took 5 mins to install, remove existing handle and cylinder, and replace with smart lock. I can post a link to it on amazon but I am not sure if it is allowed.

I have only been using it for 2 months. But it has already paid for itself. https://www.amazon.com/Blusafe-Apollo-Keyless-Security-Control/dp/B0D9WWYRBW/ref=sr_1_66?crid=2VT1V3...
