Learn how to install a Gainsborough smart door lock and connect it through the Grid Connect app, with this handy guide.
If you’re looking to expand your home tech, a smart door lock is arguably the most useful addition, offering key-free convenience and bringing a new level of security to your home. A smart lock can be the practical jewel of your smart tech set-up, but for optimised functionality, it needs to be able to work with your connected home platform – and now it can be, with the Gainsborough Liberty range, compatible with Grid Connect.
The keystone of a smart home set-up is an intuitively functional platform, such as Grid Connect. It allows you to access an entire suite of smart home products, controlling them all – individually or in unison – through the Grid Connect app. The convenience of connecting to a smart home ecosystem like this cannot be overstated, and with Gainsborough Liberty smart locks, your new front door security can fit right in. By connecting your Gainsborough Liberty smart lock to the Grid Connect system, you can use the app to lock and unlock your door, check that it’s secure and even connect it to other devices in the Grid Connect system. Connect the lock to wi-fi using the Grid Connect hub (sold separately) and you can unlock with your voice, via Amazon Alexa or Hey Google*, and let Grid Connect take over your ‘arriving home’ routine, automatically switching on lights, aircon and even music, triggered by unlocking your Liberty smart lock*.
Australia’s trusted brand in door hardware is now a trusted brand in smart locks, and the Gainsborough Liberty range puts all this technological know-how at your fingertips for an affordable price, without compromising on style or security. The Gainsborough Liberty smart lever lock (suitable for internal and sheltered external doors) delivers smart functionality plus an advanced fingerprint sensor, while the Gainsborough Liberty smart entrance lock offers this and more, with a backlit keypad. Their sleek design makes both a style asset, but it’s the smart functionality that will win your heart – walk out the door without being weighed down by keys, check your family has arrived home safely, give one-time access to tradies, and never have that niggling ‘did I lock up?’ worry ever again.
*Voice control lock/unlock via Amazon Alexa and Hey Google.
