Smart locks

by Mark Rowe

Dahua Technology has released a new series of smart locks – Bluetooth Series and Bluetooth Wireless 433 series. As the manufacturer says, keys to traditional locks can get lost, and residents cannot remotely open or close doors when necessary. The compact and sleek smart lock combines a mechanical lock case with an electronic motor in the panel. Locks with 8mm-square-bar lock bodies can be upgraded to Dahua smart locks without dismantling their original lock bodies, by installing the new lock inners and outer panels.

The smart locks come in two colours: silver and black. The Grade B Lock Cylinder offers pick resistance. Made of Zinc alloy, the metal part of the smart locks supports IK08 protection level, as resistance against forcing. As for convenience you can unlock via four methods: key, card, password and Bluetooth.

The wireless 433 series products support a fifth way of unlocking – remote unlock. When paired with VTO2111D-WP (433) outdoor Wi-Fi station, you can open the door for your guests from afar via the DMSS app in your mboile phone. Encrypted cards are much harder to copy than common ones or keys, offering protection from duplication. For passwords, you can enter random numbers before or after your password combination to ensure password privacy. Also, users can also use Bluetooth connection which is compatible with the encryption algorithm for secured communication.

Product launch dates may vary depending on country. Not all 8mm-square-bar lock bodies are compatible with the smart lock panels.
