Troubleshooting

  • Entry Code Fails to Unlock the Door

    If the Keypad bleeps once, illuminating a row of orange LEDs after the code/fingerprint is entered and the door fails to unlock, the code was entered incorrectly. Try the code again to unlock the door. Keypad entry codes must be between 4 and 6 digits and you must press the green tick on the keypad after entering the code.

    If the keypad bleeps once with a flashing row of Red LEDs after a code/fingerprint is entered and the door fails to unlock, this means the keypad is not communicating with the lock. The door will need to be unlocked via the app and once inside the property, reset the keypad. 

    Before attempting a reset: Ensure that you can connect the lock to the phone to make sure the issue isn’t with the lock batteries or the lock itself. If you find that the issue is the lock, try rebooting the lock first. To reboot the lock, remove one battery from the lock and replace it. Once you have rebooted the lock, try the entry code again. If this does not work, the Keypad must be reset.
