Securaki’s smart lock fits snugly with 90% of UK door locks and even plays nice with most European and American models. The real cherry on top is its promise of a drill-free, sweat-free setup – with absolutely no DIY skills required. Not content with merely locking and unlocking your door? The Securaki Smart Lock flirts with the likes of Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant so you can bark commands. Fancy locking your door with a voice command while you’re snuggled up in bed? Securaki says, “No problem.”
For those of you who dread getting locked out when the battery dies, fear not. This lock runs on 4x AA batteries and claims to keep going for six months, assuming you’re not entering and exiting like it’s a revolving door. And for the control freaks out there (you know who you are), the Securaki app lets you play Big Brother, tracking who comes from the companion app.
There are a bunch of different ways you can unlock the Securaki – app, keypad, or Bluetooth fob. And for those moments when you’re wondering whether you locked up before heading out, Securaki’s got your back with instant alerts for any unauthorized shenanigans. AES128 encryption means your data’s safe from the prying eyes of digital ne’er-do-wells. And for those allergic to subscription fees, Securaki demands none. It even comes with the Wi-Fi Bridge and accessories you need, so there are no extra fees there.
Keen to join the keyless revolution and get your smart home going? The Securaki Smart Lock, complete with all the bells and whistles, can be yours for £300. It’s up for grabs on Amazon and B&Q, with a roll-out to other UK retailers on the horizon.
