Smart lock

[Pauline298]

I live in Europe, but want to start a new listing on an island in the Caribbean. I am looking for a smart lock for self check in. Electricity network is equal to the US (110V). The door currently has a deadbolt lock. These are my requirements; 

- I want to be able to see every opening/closing of the door (to detect misuse of the property by cleaning staff for example).

- create codes manually that are valid for a particular time period (automatic generation of code and communication through Airbnb not necessary).

- key hole as back up

- I should be able to duplicate key without ordering it in the US and having it sent to the Caribbean.

So could you please advice me on the following:

- what happens to the lock if wifi (temporarily) goes down before guest arrives; how can guest check in?

- I am considering getting a Schlage or a Yale Zigbee/Zwave lock. Any particular recommendations?

- It seems like the best set-up would consist of buying the lock, a smart things hub and the Rboy app. Is that correct and Is the Rboy app reliable?

Anything I missed?

Thank you so much in advance!

Hi Pauline, I'm looking for the same thing. Will you please let me know what you decided on and if you're happy with it? Thank, Aleta

Aleta, I'd advise two choices for you:

1. Smart deadbolt; (Typically, if you're using a mechancial deadbolt, just knock it down and install our smart deadbolt in the hole. )

2. a cheap solution, you can buy our smart keybox(a.70$), save your keys in the smart box. then the whole unlocking process become smart too.

Hi

On the smart keybox can you change the PIN dynamically between 2 renters (remotely).

Will it notify me when the box is opened?
