    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...

      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

      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.

    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 ?

    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.
