    We ended up exchanging this model for the slimmer version ruclips.net/user/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU because it was too wide for the only door trim area that made sense to mount it on. However, we should have just noted the dimensions prior to purchasing. Otherwise, we love the doorbell. It works perfectly, and the video is very clear, even at night.

    use screws to mount the keypad outdoors - don't rely on the sticky tabs. thank me later...
    and make sure the lock opens and closes smoothly before you begin. you may have to do some carpentry to move the strike plate and hole in order for the lock to operate smoothly and properly.

    • @theoriginalchefboyoboy6025
      @theoriginalchefboyoboy6025 Год назад +1

      I think there's a little pinhole on the underside and they give you a "key" to poke in the hole to release the keypad...

    Thanks for the vid. I was about to buy the lock bc I love SimplieSafe. But I see a problem with this lock which you cant really tell from online. The keypad is separate and use those cheap sticky tape. I had to use those thick picture ones for our keypads. We do own our home but we had it repainted and all nail holes filled in last year. And we don't want to do nails. Back to looking for new door pad.

    A couple of issues, we had a simple safe system that is five years old and did not work with this. We found out after trying to connect. With install Simple Safe sends a single strip of blue tape to hold the outside key entry in place. The single tape strip was not strong enough and the piece fell off so better to hold onto it or tape it on with more non marking tape.
    I know Juan is using this as a stand alone device. If you need to open the wings that snap close the install plate you can use the little metal flat tool to lever them open. I hope this helps.

      I Dunno if the version sold in 2020 has the option to use screws to install the keypad, but the one they sell in 2023 does. There’s a metal pin that fits into a hole in the casing, popping it off so you can use screws instead of the sticky tape.

      Not on the plan that I have. Since I don't pay for the monthly subscription I don't have features like that. I think it might be available on the subscription plan. In this video I answer many of the FAQ's - ruclips.net/video/cL_L1n3BN-s/видео.html

    I've had simplisafe for over five years. I've had both the first gen and the second gen. Most of their stuff works ok. Their lock however is horrendous. Also their customer service is horrible. It will take you anywhere from 45 to 60 minutes to reach a person who will tell you to reinstall it basically. Then it will crap out again. The worse part is that the keypad on the outside won't activate the lock when this happens since they're both wireless and communicate through the main keypad inside. So you will get stuck outside unless you have the physical key. My house is all keypad access so I've had to enter from the back when this happens. In any case, save your money and buy a nicer non wireless keypad lock. They work a lot better.
