buying digital door lock

[Sushubh]

so there is no mechanical handle in the variant you ordered... it unlocks and you use a regular handle to open the door?

yes , whats the issue?

still tempting i need to tell the plumber to not install a regular lock on the door in the meantime.

Door locks are built to last. And they don't get software updates frequently.

I don't see the point of not getting samsung one and instead opting for local ones.

lol. called up a few dealers that i located online. no one would give a price list. first tell us model. then come for a demo. and then we can discuss pricing. what the f.

I was once interested with Keyless IP based locks. Then gave up the idea because of US and India lock system mis-matches which will lead to installation issues. I remember looking at Lokitron then and many others like it:

assuming it does not require the internets for proximity locking/unlocking, it can work for me

It does not need internet. There are various models, some use your phone's bluetooth, most of them do remote unlock/lock, you can send keys on email to your visitor if you are away and other stuff.

Here are few more options:

poly-control
August Smart Lock
