Installing a new smart lock has never been easier. One of the biggest hassles of smart locks is that to install them, you have to remove all the old locking hardware before placing the new one. If you’ve got limited skills and/or tools, that may be a no-go. But the SwitchBot Smart Lock solves that problem easily: it’s designed to install over your existing lock, and it will be a “smart operator” to lock/unlock your currently-installed hardware. It’s compatible with most deadbolt locks, featuring three different “thumb turns” that can fit a wide range of designs, and still gives you manual control over your lock. Now that’s user-convenience done right!
