The best choice depends on your property’s security requirements, whether you prefer to lock or unlock using an app or fingerprint, and your desired level of intuitive smart home control.
Are August locks safe and secure?
August smart locks use advanced data encryption, including 128-bit AES and TLS protocols, along with two-factor authentication and mandatory user verification. These features ensure that every time you activate or lock remotely, your connection remains protected from unauthorized access. The lock maintains physical key backup for safety and is engineered to ensure complete digital and physical security when installed correctly.
Are the August smart locks worth it?
August Wi-Fi smart locks deliver measurable ROI for properties requiring flexible access management, temporary guest entry, and detailed activity tracking.
