- This video is by request and shows a detailed installation of the lock on a UK multi-point door. For the setup and review, please see my other video on the U200 retrofit lock.
The U200 is the first retrofit lock ever to support Apple Home Key and is packed with features.
Thanks so much for the review I really wanted one of these but couldn’t work out how to fit it to my door! Got it on prime day after seeing your review and saved £50 thank you

@@andysreviewsandsmarthometips - My front door doesn’t have think kind of lock. It have the “night latch” style. I take it this won’t work for me after all?

Hi! why did you change the lock at first?
@@aminefahel this was because you need a lock with a safety feature. By this I mean that you can unlock the lock from the outside when a key is inserted on the inside.
Do you really need the emergency function with the keys opening at any time or can it be installed without having it?
@@thegiantdutchman if you do not have the emergency function, you will not be able to unlock the door from the outside. As this is a retrofit lock, the lock must be able to unlock from both sides if anything fails. For example, if for some reason you did not have any charge on the door lock itself and you were outside the house then you would not be able to unlock the door from the outside and get in
What lock did you buy? Also was it 40/40 etc? My door is the same as yours.
@@AdieAdie17 he is a link to the lock I bought, it is on the UK Amazon website. Also, I know it holds up because someone tried to break into my house and the outer part snapped off and they were still trying to get in when the police arrived. amzn.eu/d/02IlJ4jl
Hi Andy, how can I wire my U200 keypad? I'm also using the G4 doorbell? Did you power it using a wall plug or?
@@Tty85 hi there, for this particular installation I used two different adapters for the keypad and the G4 however if you get a power adapter that is 8 to 24 V and a minimum of one amp then you can power both devices from the same plug. You do this by putting. A three way. WAGO connect to on the positive wire and the same on the negative wire. Then you can run two positive wires and two negative wires each to each device if this makes sense. This way you can power both devices from one individual plug. If you need more instruction, get back to me on my Facebook page. facebook.com/AndysReviewsAndSmartHomeTips and I can help further.
@@andysreviewsandsmarthometips My G4 doorbell is wired and gets power from old doorbell. It was an old doorbell, but an electrician put some fast glass fuses and transform from 220V to 12-24V.
@@Tty85 in this case, I would personally recommend contacting the electrician that installed it as I do not feel qualified to advise you on this particular set up. If anything went wrong, I would hate to be the one that gave you the wrong advice. I know that it can be done so that both devices are powered from the same source, however, like I say, I would consult your electrician since it is wired into a main system
@@andysreviewsandsmarthometipsor if you were using an 8v to 24v you could just wire the positive of the keypad to the positive of the G4 and the same with the negatives. Job done!
I don’t think you needed to screw the baseplate to the door, you can secure it to the cylinder using the supplied Allen key
@@paulmwhite my particular cylinder does not quite have the space for this hence why I did it this way, plus I wanted the extra security 😊 hope you have a great day!
That's a really rough installation - just mounting the U200 over the existing locking mechanism as it doesn't sit flush with the door 🤷♂
@@willmitchell255 would you suggest another way then please? I’d be happy to try a suggestion if you have one.
