What is a smart lock?

A smart lock can be locked and unlocked without a key. Instead it might be opened using a smartphone app, by touching the lock with your finger, or even by talking to the lock.

Which is the best smart lock?

To help you choose the best smart lock I’ve searched the internet and come up with the following list of products that I’d consider* buying. I’ve then created an information page for each product which tells you everything you need to know to decide whether it is right for you.

Each information page also contains where-to-buy links to leading online retailers’ websites together with up-to-date prices so that you can easily get the best deal.

*Inclusion in this list doesn’t represent an endorsement. It simply means that I think the product is worth considering!
