Installing the rain cover for the SwitchBot Smart Lock Pro set

Jul. 14/2024
A fingerprint authentication pad was installed at the entrance of the building. My family complained that fingerprint authentication was difficult when raindrops fell on the pad during windy rain, so I quickly installed a cover. The black part is aluminum and the transparent part is acrylic. The authentication signature can be seen through the viewing window at the top.
The fingerprint authentication is designed so that you can insert your finger without opening the cover.
Although this is rarely used, when you need to enter your PIN, you have to lift the cover up and enter the number.

SwitchBot smart door rock

The thumb turn on the front door. I asked the house builder if they could install a safe automatic door that can be unlocked and locked without a key, but they said it would cost a lot of money.
At that time, I was searching online and found this SwitchBot Smart Lock Pro Set. It contains the main unit that locks with a motor, a fingerprint authentication pad, and mounting hardware adhesive.
In addition to that set, I also purchased a remote button.
Installation was easy, but I had a hard time setting up the auto-lock. I couldn't record the locking action no matter what I did, and I thought it was impossible, but then I realized that the app version was old, so I updated it and the problem was solved without any problems. I'm fixing it with tape for 48 hours to make sure it adheres well.
The fingerprint authentication pad is attached to the outside of the door next to the intercom. In addition to fingerprint authentication, card key, and PIN, you can also unlock and lock the door with your smartphone. It takes a little time to open and close the door with fingerprint authentication, but it's very convenient because you don't have to carry a key around anymore.
In addition to unlocking and locking by pressing the round button, you can also open and close by turning the button.
The structure is simple, just grab the knob of the thumb turn and turn it with a motor. But the fact that everything can be connected in one go via Bluetooth is amazing.
The remote button is installed next to the intercom monitor. It is incredibly convenient because it allows you to unlock the door remotely when a visitor comes.
