Whether you’re tired of losing your keys, you’re already in the process of automating your home, or you’re setting up a B&B, a vital part of the process is choosing a smart lock that fits your needs. There are plenty of different smart locks to choose from, each with their own unique abilities. However, we recommend the August Smart Lock Pro<\/a> for most people since it’s super easy to set up and comes with everything you need.<\/p>\n

Best Overall: August Smart Lock Pro + Connect (3rd Gen)<\/em>

One of the reasons we like this option so much is that from a street view, no one would know that it was a smart lock. It allows you to keep your handle and lock in place but adds a smart component that’s only visible from inside your home. It isn’t the most pleasant thing to look at from the inside, but you probably won’t be looking at it much. It’s a bit expensive. However, this particular purchase comes with a Connect Wi-Fi Bridge, which will let you control your lock using the August app or a voice assistant like Amazon Alexa devices.<\/p>\n

The app also has an activity log so you can see who has been coming and going through your door. The DoorSense feature even allows you to check your phone and see if your door is shut or open. For additional convenience, you can make it so your door automatically unlocks when you approach with your smartphone and locks when you walk away. It’s perfect for when you’re carrying home armloads of groceries. Despite being a high-tech device, this lock will only take you around 10 minutes to set up before being ready to use.<\/p>\n
