For the past year or so, I’ve been looking at smart locks and wanting one yet not able to fully commit to anything. Living in Lebanon means our doors don’t have the American-style deadbolts, but what is known as the Euro Style/Profile Double Cylinder – a lock that is quite prominent across France, Germany, the UK, and other countries. So August, Yale, Schlage, Kwikset, and plenty of brands geared toward the US market were mostly out of the question unless I wanted to take a risk and get something that doesn’t fit at all with my apartment’s door.
