The best smart locks can help anyone who constantly misplaces keys or who frequently wonders whether they locked the front door. I am in the latter camp. After years in apartments, I recently moved to a large enough house that checking whether the door is locked can feel like a chore, especially once I’m all cozy in bed.<\/p>\n

Installing a smart lock doesn’t mean throwing away your house keys\u2014you probably still want to bring them with you. These locks are all about convenience, offering multiple ways to enter, like a passcode via a keypad, fingerprint scanning, or through an app. You can easily share codes with friends and family, so no need to fuss with crappy key copies, and you can usually set them to auto-lock when the door closes. But there are a lot of models out there, and not all will work with your door. Don’t worry, I’ve been testing smart locks for nearly a year and have lots of advice in this guide. Most folks will be happy with our top pick, the Yale Approach Lock with Keypad Touch<\/a>, but we have several options\u2014even a lock that fits a sliding door.<\/p>\n
