The SecureScreen feature requires all users to input two random numbers before entering the actual pincode which makes impossible to guess the pincode by smudges and fingerprints.
The SmartCode 916 is one of the more subtle and smaller smart locks which should blend in nicely with your interior thanks to the multiple color variations.
The August Smart Lock comes in a very sleek and small package which essentially just replaced your deadbolt and allows the user to use the same key. It's also featured in a variety of different colors.
August also has a few additional products to use with the Smart Lock, such as a keypad, a Wi-Fi bridge and a doorbell camera to further enhance and enrich your smart lock with new and useful features.
The software of the August Smart Lock is excellent and you can connect the lock to your smartphone or tablet in a number of different ways. Download the dedicated app, or use the smart lock in conjunction with HomeKit, Nest or Xfinity.
The Deadbolt features some of the best alarm and alert features to inform the user and scare away potential thiefs. The smart lock can distinguish activity, tamper and forced entry and uses one of the loudest sirens available.
Has Z-Wave support, however it also has some features that are available without having a Z-Wave hub (for example creating new codes can be done directly from the keypad).
The Schlage Connect is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, which is the highest possible home security rating. And it shows: What the Connect lacks in other features, it makes up for in security. The connect has an anti-pick shield to protect against lock tampering, as well as a fingerprint-resistant matte finish so that home intruders cannot figure out commonly used codes by marks left from your fingers.
The design of this Schlage smart lock might appeal to some users, but lacks simplicity often found in other smart locks. The font used also contradicts the modern style of the device.
The app offers complete control over this smartlock from the basics such as opening and closing the door from the app to adjusting alarm sound, creating new entry codes for guests (with expiration) and so on. You can also check who opened the lock and when based on the code they used through the app.
The Yale Assure Lock SL uses the August App, which, among other things lets you integrate the smart lock with other August smart devices for a smooth and complete home automation experience.
