How to Install an Electronic Smart Lock

Increase the safety and security of your home with programmable keyless entry

Hello and welcome to Joe Shows How! One of the best ways to increase the security of your home is to install a smart lock, which is essentially an electronic deadbolt that you can lock and unlock without a key. In this week’s video, I show how to remove an existing manual deadbolt, and replace it with a smart lock.

The smart lock shown in the video is the LockStar Smart Door Lock, which is powered by four AA batteries. The deadbolt locks automatically when you close the door, and can be opened with a four-digit code, cell phone app, key fob, or your thumbprint. And if the batteries die, you can unlock the deadbolt with a standard key.

If you’re at all concerned with home security, or are just looking for a super-convenient way to control the comings and goings at your house, I highly recommend a smart lock. It’s a great solution for pet sitters, babysitters, house sitters, and home rentals. Hope you enjoy this video and, as always, thanks for your support!
