I was accidentally locked out of home again, and I had to call a professional to open the lock.
But if someone was home, they could have just turned the knob of the door from inside. There’s a device that can do that? It needs to do 3 full turns and it requires a bit of force to do that (armored door with iron bars that slide in every direction, so it has a big inertia to start)
I saw a ready solution on a store, the iseo x1r, but that costs 1000 euro + another 200 for the gateway (not mandatory but otherwise it uses proprietary Bluetooth protocol and so it can’t talk with HA
Can you share pics with this door? How do you walk outside and have it lock behind you?
When you close it, it’s not possible* to open it again from outside
* = only the triangular piece engages, so a professional can unlock it from outside by using a thin sheet of steel
Yea, I’ve seen these in Italy, you 100% need a key to open from the outside.
I think you should have a thin sheet of steel kept in your car or somewhere safe, so you can just use that like a locksmith.
Wow. Do you live in a bank vault? That’s a serious door!
I keep all my money in my mattress. All of the $52.
There are so many burglars here that this kind of door is the standard in any apartment
I can’t help you but I’m fascinated by your door now. Does this door/lock have a name? How did you end up with such an elaborate mechanism?
