We bough this xiaomi door lock from this seller: s.click.aliexpr...
But as you may see from my previous video, seller was so slow to resolve the issue with accessories, so I recommend try another one: s.click.aliexpr...
Mi Gateway (hub) I bought here: s.click.aliexpr..., and here is little bit cheaper: s.click.aliexpr...
You will need this gateway to be able to connect xiaomi aqara door lock to your phone.
Very good JBL speakers: amzn.to/34uP0kB
Tools that you may need for install the doorknob:
Oscillating multi-tool - to make a space in the door (wooden or aluminium) - s.click.aliexpr...
Drill/screwdriver - s.click.aliexpr...

"If you forgot your pincode or your FINGER", lolol. 2:13
It happens .. sometimes
Great picture quality 👌 no issues ty
Great video! Thank you for sharing your experience with this product. 👍🏾
Thank you for your comment!
Can you set the PIN / Password entry codes remotely (via the internet from my home country for guests to use when they visit) ?
Unfortunately you can't :(. You only can delete the code remotely. So, what I do is create 10 codes, and after give them one by one to clients or friends, and delete them after
Wow. That install.
Thank your 🙏
Can you use this for home main entrance door?
Do you recommend any other brands ?
As you may see on some other comments, my setup is in gated community, so, the environment is secure by itself
But I think I would use it in not gated community with a stronger door
And I would have a second lock, that I would use as an additional lock if I go to vacations.
Wish to install this but last time the buglar use car jack to force push the door frame, so before install this i must enhance defense of my aparment door frame first
Sir please review Xiaomi TV Speaker Theater Edition Soundbar With Separate Subwoofer Launched
Hi can you please help me, i want to know if i can switch side (from right to left) on mijia youth edition thanks.
Hey, this option is available. And there are some comments bellow of people who did a switch. I personally didn't need it, so, I didn't try it.
But it works as I see from other comments.
Great video!
Thx for your helpful video. What's the best Xiaomi lock ? there are tens of them ! what's the difference between S2 & S2 pro ?
Hi, I don't know the difference. I have the S2, and PRO was not available when I bought mine.
The probably added extras staff to it. Sorry, can't help to much here
@@smartbuyer3572 it's ok. so u recommend it ? the S2
Hi, yes, it works perfect for me.
I'm happy with it.
can this be locked manually from the inside - like for child safety - or does the door just open automatically when you push the handle down - not good for child safety ?
Hi. On installation, I somehow triggered the alarm. The message in the app says something like , "door facing the wrong way." Do you know how to switch off the alarm while I sort out the direction?
No idea. Sorry
can u use it for metal grill doors?
Does the doorknob ship to the Dominican Republic?
Hi, yes, you can order it in Aliexpress and delivery it to Miami, where through intermediate company like CPS or other you can delivery to DR.
Good luck!
How long the battery last? 6month?
Hi, mine is still working with the same batteries since I've installed it, and it was about 8 months ago.
So, you can expect 8 months work at least
Hello. Does this, or the Aqara N100 has the "unlocked mode" for example, if I want to keep the door unlocked in daytime?
For example, I press some function button, Unlock and then it will not lock again, until I lock or lift the handle from either side.
My current fingerprint lock (YRHAND) has this option, but can't turn it off from inside. Can only be turned off by using Finger/Pin/RFID from outside again.
Hi, no. This model comes without this mode.
At least I never seen it.
@@kostanos Maybe it has similar software, like other chinese smart locks..
You Press 5 and # and enter PIN/finger to go into "Unlocked Mode"
@@viljarniit2093 Interesting. I'll check once I'll be back home in my country.
I assume the same way you switch it back to the Locked Mode?
@@kostanos Yes, disable by 5# or just use Pin/Finger/Rfid, like when unlocking
@@kostanos Have You checked?
So, if someone locked from inside with security lock, nobody will be able to open the door from outside?
Actually not, if you lock the door with secure lock, it can be still opened from outside by administrator.
Thank you for asking.

Hi. My door opens from the left side. How to fix this?
There is instruction how to switch the side, but I never did it, sorry. It should not be so difficult. Also ask you seller about it.
Да можно было и по-русски обзор снять ))
Jaja, sorry, I don't have a channel in Russian. Here we publish in English only.
@@smartbuyer3572 It's ok, thank you for this video :)
Hi, great helpful video! May I use it in my online page? So it lessens questions on the product? I am sure my customer's will appreciate it :) Please advise soon.
Hi, sure, you can use our video, but leave the link to this page in UA-cam.
@@smartbuyer3572 yes i have! Its the least i can do for doing a helpful realistic video. Thanks!
Hi, can you use this for an outside door ?
Hi, I don't know, it looks like well sealed, and should have some water resistance.
Better ask the seller before buying it.
If you get some updated information please share it here for others to know.
Thank you for the video. Maybe my question is already answered yet i will ask to be gathered in one question. It is not possible to use this locker together with the hub and doorbell correct? Have you contacted them regarding this? i suppose this can be fixed with a simple update correct?
Hi, yes, I use this door lock with the hub and doorbell.
There is the link to the hub in description.
The door lock has the doorbell button on it.
@@kostanos so, if I visit your house I press the bell and you can see me from camera and open the door from application ?
No, unfortunately, you can't open this door lock remotely. But everything else is possible
@@kostanos thanks for answering. This is for me the most important since I want control an office door on another country. So if not opening remotely it's useless
This electronic device will not gone help. The door is made of paper and cardboard. Gentle kick and you are in.
Thank you for the comment! You are right, our apartment is located in gated community, and we don't need a such security that you mentioned.
Even so, our door is from aluminium, and one kick will not break it as easy as you think.
The goal of this video was to share my experience about the doorlock, but, for sure, you can set up it in most protected doors.
@@smartbuyer3572 Thank for sharing your experiance!!!
Hey! Where are you from? I didn't catch you accent :) It seems Russian but I can make a mistake )
Feels like the question block sound effect on super mario bros
Why am i watching videos on fingerprint doorlocks when my fingers are always scared and messed up so badly i can't even unlock my phone with my fingerprint.
Jaja, I understand you 100%, happens to me all the time too. Even so, in my phone, when it works, I'm so happy that I don't need to type a pin again :D
WHAT IF THE BATTERRY EXPIRES?
It has a mini USB, which you can use to connect with external power (any power bank should work), once you open the door, you can replace the batteries.
@@kostanos or open it with key.
someone didn't watch the whole review
thx for letting me know about this terrible product.I advice you to sell it even with your door...:) the cheap simple door handle is 120usd and works like charm! this is over complicated and NOT practicle.
which one is the cheap door handle ?
