OverviewConsider August Wi-Fi Smart Lock if you want to keep your outside hardware and key. It needs a compatible single-cylinder deadbolt. Guests can use virtual keys. To enter by PIN without a phone, they need a keypad. Current booking automation is still an open question. The Wi-Fi product pages we reviewed do not confirm a current PMS booking-code process.Consider Halo Touchscreen if you plan to manage keypad access for guests and cleaners by hand. This profile covers 939 WIFI TSCR15 in Satin Nickel. Halo Touch, Select and Select+ are separate models. The vendor describes scheduled codes and remote app control without a hub. Satin Nickel Halo Touchscreen: USD 208 per lock. Check the final price and any extra costs before buying. Automatic code creation from bookings or a PMS is not confirmed.Consider Lockly Secure Pro when you want offline guest-code options and a hub included with the selected deadbolt. This profile covers Standard Deadbolt PGD728WMG in Brushed Gold, not Zeno. Check the software allowance as carefully as the hardware: free Lockly Home management covers up to three properties and three offline access codes per month. Larger needs require LocklyOS, whose price was not confirmed.

        Compare locks and guest-entry tools — August Wi-Fi Smart Lock vs Kwikset Halo Touchscreen Wi-Fi Smart Lock vs Lockly Secure Pro (Standard Deadbolt)

        Start at the door. Check whether the lock fits, how guests enter and what happens if power or internet fails. Then check remote control and booking links. A lock, a hub and access software can be separate purchases. Confirm the full setup before relying on automatic guest codes.

        August Wi-Fi Smart Lock: what to consider

        Check the deadbolt fit first. Guests need a keypad for PIN entry without a phone. A current booking-driven code process was not confirmed for this model, so do not assume it is included. Read the August Wi-Fi Smart Lock profile for its plans and requirements.

        Kwikset Halo Touchscreen Wi-Fi Smart Lock: what to consider

        Check the exact Halo Touchscreen model. The reviewed page did not confirm codes made from bookings or property software. Plan to manage codes by hand unless your exact setup is verified. Read the Kwikset Halo Touchscreen Wi-Fi Smart Lock profile for its plans and requirements.

        Lockly Secure Pro (Standard Deadbolt): what to consider

        Check the Standard Deadbolt model and software limits. Free Lockly Home limits properties and offline codes. Larger needs require LocklyOS. Its price was not confirmed. Read the Lockly Secure Pro (Standard Deadbolt) profile for its plans and requirements.

        Explore all smart access options, how to choose a lock for a US rental, how to plan automatic guest access codes to continue your shortlist.

        Common questions

        What should I check before choosing between August Wi-Fi Smart Lock, Kwikset Halo Touchscreen Wi-Fi Smart Lock and Lockly Secure Pro (Standard Deadbolt)?

        Start with the exact door and lock model. Check the keypad, bridge or hub needed for your chosen booking connection. Decide which system should create and remove guest codes. A compatible brand name alone does not confirm that the full setup will work.

        How should I plan backup entry with August Wi-Fi Smart Lock, Kwikset Halo Touchscreen Wi-Fi Smart Lock and Lockly Secure Pro (Standard Deadbolt)?

        Check how the exact model lets guests in if the main method fails. Test the guest steps before arrival and arrange local help. A code may work offline but still need an internet link for you to change or remove it.

        Can August Wi-Fi Smart Lock guests use my existing physical key?

        Yes, if the deadbolt fits. The lock keeps the outside hardware and old key. App-based guest keys are a separate way to enter. For PIN entry without a phone, you need a suitable keypad. Do not assume a lock-only order comes with one.

        Can I pause a Kwikset Halo Touchscreen guest code without deleting it?

        Kwikset says its app can disable a code as well as delete it. It also lets you set date and time schedules. These are app controls; they do not establish that a booking service will change the code for you.

        Can Lockly Secure Pro issue a guest code while the lock is offline?

        Yes. Lockly describes Offline Access Codes for one use or a set time. Guests do not need an app to use them. The free monthly limit is capped; more codes need LocklyOS. Check the limit for your setup if guests change often.
