With just a screwdriver and following the installation guide, you can easily install the smart deadbolt lock. Just make sure your door size meets the installation specifications.
Design & Build
In terms of design, this smart lock looks sleek and elegant mostly because of its simple yet gorgeous matte black color design. On the front, you’ll find your traditional keyhole and just above it, there is an OLED display with sensitive touch screen controls which are visible in the dark because of the LED light.
For the build, this smart key lock is built out of Zinc Alloy Body and feels rock-solid. Besides, it has an IP65 weatherproof rating along with a working temperature range from -22° to 131° Fahrenheit (-22°F to 131°F) to withstand extreme weather. As a result, this smart key lock is suitable for daily outdoor use.

With so many unlocking options, you can satisfy the unlocking preferences of the whole family. The sensitive keys take only 0.5 seconds to instantly unlock the door. For mobile unlocking, you have to download the TTLock app first.
