Door Lock Smart Lock for front door - Marilynchildress - 07-25-2025

Hello Friends,
I hope you are all fairing well.
I have an Oaks Lock on the door for our Air BnB and have ordered 2 different gateways for it and neither work. I’ve ordered yet another gateway, because 2 people said that it hooks up easily with their Oaks…so we’ll see.
I’m wondering if someone might share with me what smart door lock for home they use remotely? We travel quite a bit and it would be helpful to set a new code for the door while I am out of town. Currently I need to be within 6 feet of the lock to set a new code.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Kwikset locks allow remote configuration.

I can't speak to the lock but can speak to some remote outlets I've had issues with.  They seem to use old wifi tech and weren't compatible with my router.  First they are only 2.4GHz and then I think also used an older generation of wifi IIRC, been a while.

I use Wyze lock with an outsize keypad and it's been working fine for 3 or so years.  It mounts using the existing deadbolt.  However, it also only works on 2.4 so a dual band router is needed.
