12 Best Fingerprint Smart Door Locks for Home in India 2024

If your Smart Door Lock doesn’t have the mobile app connect functionality, you can still control it via the Keypad. Numbers, ‘*’, and ‘#’ buttons on the keypad will help you via pre-defined protocols. For instance, if you want to set a fingerprint, click *, scan your finger 3 times (each time till the beep sound), click #. That’s it! You can now use your fingerprint to Lock/Unlock the door. Similarly, there will be different protocols for different settings like admin user, family users, guest users, OTP generation, and much more. Make a note that control protocols can be same or different for various Smart Lock Brands. You can also delete/reset settings!

A Fingerprint Smart Lock with the 2-Factor Authentication feature ensures more security. Here, a user needs to get authenticated by 2 ways. For instance, the user needs to scan their fingerprint first, then enter a password to completely unlock the door. You can also keep a master user who first gets authenticated, after which guests can enter a password to unlock. You can also use RFID Cards for this feature.

• Battery Exhausted

• Hassle-free entry for guests

• Servants who are unable to adapt to the smart lock system

• Family members who still prefer traditional locks and key unlocking

• Rare cases when it is unable to scan fingerprint (reader damaged), issues with keypad, lost RFID Card, etc.

Privacy Mode in a fingerprint door lock, locks the door from inside such that no mechanism (fingerprint/password/card/app/etc.) can open it from outside. It has a button on the inside part of the lock which can be activated/deactivated. However, admin/master users can unlock subject to some T&Cs.

Fingerprint Lock Working

You can add random numbers along with a password so it gets tough to capture for anyone spying on your smart door lock. For instance, if the password is 882134 then entering 113344 '882134' 6565 will also unlock the door as random spy codes are entered before and after the actual password.

OTP is one time password and LTP stands for limited time password. These are for guests, servants, delivery personals, service providers, etc. OTP can be used only once throughout the day while LTP can be used multiple times within the specified time period. Thus, you can give these codes accordingly. OTPs and LTPs can be generated via mobile app or keypad protocols.

It keeps the door unlocked for a set time duration. It is useful when you need the door to be opened and closed frequently during an event/session.

It is similar to passage mode. The only difference is that here there is no time duration. Thus, you can only on/off public mode. Make sure to switch-off public mode after usage else your door will remain unlocked.

Fingerprint Door Locks are powered by 2/4 AA Alkaline Batteries. They last for 5-10 months depending on usage and product/brand. Most locks have a USB slot for emergency charging (via power bank or mobile charging adapter) in case the battery is completely drained.
