My husband and I recently moved into a new house and we needed to get new door locks and hardware. After lots of research, we decided to upgrade and purchase a home automation keyless door lock and a matching door handle. My husband and I both have cars that are keyless so we figured it would be easier not to worry about keys at all.
I was also eager to try it because I run from my house every day. I usually have to grab my phone and armband to have music throughout my run and hold onto my entry key. Having a keyless door lock would allow me to run freely with no worry about finding or holding onto my house key.
My husband and I took the chance and purchased the Kwikset Kevo deadbolt lock. To match and accompany the lock, we bought the Halifax handle. We had never installed a door lock or handle before so we were a little anxious it would be difficult. We were pleasantly surprised by the simplicity and ease of the installation. Installing the hardware, downloading the app, and calibrating the Bluetooth technology was easy and stress free.
We activated one key for each of us and sent an eKey to both sets of our parents who live nearby. I thought it was so cool that you could activate different types of eKeys, whether it was full access or set parameters that limit it to a certain time.
Overall, we are thrilled and beyond impressed with our sleek and modern Kevo door hardware. The two together are simple yet chic. An outsider would have no clue we have this high-tech lock because it blends in just like any other deadbolt. The two pieces work perfectly together and really complete the look and feel of our front door. It truly is the little things that can make your life just a little bit easier and care free. Who would have thought it could be your front door?
