Nearly 99% of doors can install Philips smart locks. The required thickness of the door is between 38mm-120mm and the door gap is greater than 3mm, most of the Philips smart locks could be installed. Even for the glass door, it could be installed when the width of the frame bar is greater than 110mm.

The safe handle function is to prevent people with ulterior motives from using special tools which could pass through the peephole and press down the handle from inside to open the door. For Philips push-pull smart lock, its inside escutcheon adopts a handleless design. While the smart lever lock employs a safe handle button. Besides, this function is also beneficial to prevent the child and pet from opening the door casually.

Not really. There is nothing either good or bad in the two battery types, but depends on the use case. For example, the Philips visual smart lock, integrates a door viewer, a camera and a doorbell. A smart lock with various functions and high power consumption needs a large-capacity lithium battery to drive, which could effectively increase the battery’s lasting ability. Besides, lithium battery has a long battery lifespan and could be recharged. While, for most of the basic models of smart locks, the alkaline battery is enough for daily usage. The alkaline dried battery is not only environmentally friendly, but is easy to buy and operate. But be careful not to mix old and new batteries to reduce potential safety hazards.

In a fully automatic mortise, once the user is verified, the lock bolt automatically retracts and mortise pops out. The door can be opened by slightly pushing and locked automatically once the door is closed.
In a semi-automatic mortise, the, after successful verification, you need to press down the handle to open the door, and lift up the handle to lock.

Philips EasyKey locks have a general mode and a double verification mode. The general mode means that upon successful verification, the door can be unlocked by any of the access options, while the double verification mode requires a combination of fingerprints, PIN code and key tag to verify and unlock, adding another layer of protection for home security.

One of the most frequently asked question is what happens if the battery goes dead. How do you unlock the door?
Low battery alarm
Mechanical Key
USB emergency power supply interface
