About this item
- UPGRADE YOUR EXISTING DEADBOLT: August smart locks fit on the inside of your door, making your regular deadbolt smarter, more secure and way more convenient. Keep your keys just in case (but you won’t need them).

- EASY TO INSTALL ON ANY DOOR: Even if you’re not so handy, installation only takes about 10 minutes. August locks fit perfectly over most single cylinder deadbolts and aren't much bigger than your original thumbturn.
- AUTO-LOCKS AND UNLOCKS: August Wi-Fi Smart Lock is able to Auto-Unlock as you get home for totally hands-free unlocking (optional). With Auto-Lock and DoorSense, your home automatically secures once your door is closed, or after a set amount of time.
- WORKS SEAMLESSLY WITH YOUR SMART HOME: Built-in Wi-Fi allows your lock to work with your favorite voice assistant, including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings and more.
- AWARD-WINNING SMART LOCK YEAR AFTER YEAR: Voted CNET Editor's Choice two years in a row (2020/2021), Best Smart Lock by Good Housekeeping (2021), Best Smart Lock by Tom's Guide (2021).
- KEEP YOUR HOME'S CURB APPEAL: Get smart lock functionality without changing the look of the outside of your front door. August smart locks are installed only on the inside of the door, so your design for your front door doesn’t have to adapt.
- ADD A KEYPAD FOR USE WITH CODES: For phone-free moments, connect a Smart Keypad (sold separately) to unlock the door with unique codes. Great for small kids, the housekeeper, the dogwalker, or other one-time visitors.
- FACE OR FINGERPRINT ID FOR EXTRA SECURITY: Use your phone’s biometric recognition for two-factor authentication (optional).

It turned out that my strata doesn’t allow anything that changes the appearance of common areas so I had to find something that left my front door and lock looking as before with the mechanism being inside the house.
This August lock has served so well! Install was very easy. Had to download the app and then the step by step guide in the app was clear and well thought out.
The app is key if you don’t install the pin pad. I’ve shared the August lock app with my dog walker and she can access the unit easily. I love how you can get the app to log who has opened the door and at what time as well.
Several reviews mention poor battery results. I’m yet to have the batteries run out, but I note the batteries that came with the lock are pretty cheap. I’ve only had the lock installed 3 weeks so as a result of other reviews discussing battery life, I plan to buy slightly more expensive batteries to replace them, when they finally go, or maybe rechargeable.
On Sunday, we had a scheduled power outage by the electric company. I fully expected the lock to fail due to the lack of wifi, but the Bluetooth setting continued to work through the power outage and I could get and in and out still without a key.
All in all, I’m really happy with this purchase. Highlights include being able to share access with others, setting the lock to auto lock if left unlocked for a certain period (i chose 1 minute), being able to set my neighbourhood, so if I go more than 200m from the house, it locks the door. Highly recommend.
Finally found a FAQ doc that said to make sure the notches on the lock adapter were at the vertical position (12/3/6/9 o’clock) when the lock was at it’s ‘default’ position (unlocked). When I swapped out the adaptor to the blue one from the light brown and recalibrated the lock one more time it started working perfectly. No more weird mismatch between the app and lock position even when the WiFi signal was good! Range of motion is much farther when the lock opens now and it has a fancy chirp to show it unlocked correctly. That chirp made me so happy after fighting with the app this long, but it didn’t compare to clicking the app a second time and having it reliably relock immediately.
It felt like it was ‘almost’ working before figuring this issue out so I assumed the app/some buggy firmware was at fault but it was installation error on my part! The rest of the install was so easy. Oh well.
Also, go get the rechargeable 123a batteries for this lock. Saw that tip from someone else and just got two sets to swap between. The disposable batteries drain pretty fast and are expensive.

Parece que las baterías duran poco. Me empezó a avisar desde hace 14 días de la urgencia de cambiarlas. No he hecho caso y sigue funcionando perfecto. Ya le gané 14 días.
Only to find out that its installation is geo fenced to US and Canada only. Outside, must be trough Yale App, which may NOT support August in all countries.
Took a bit of network creativity, but I finally managed to set it up. All good when it ends well,…. just a reminder to those purchasing August from outside of US and Canada that it may not work straight out of the box.
