Just a tip for you regarding fingerprint sensors on door locks in outside environments.
All the ones I’ve had do not like water / rain / condensation.
And I’m talking Melbourne - so it’s not getting snow/frozen etc
The few I’ve had from AliExpress all stopped working after a a few months of winter. Moisture got in the fingerprint sensor and killed it.
(I got a refund on those)
I then got one from Bunnings and while the fingerprint sensor hasn’t failed in the last 2 years, if it’s wet it won’t ID your fingerprint. That’s understandable I guess, but even if you wipe the sensor and your finger with some cloth, it still won’t scan until it’s really dry.
It’s a real pain in the ass when you’re standing in the rain trying to get the door open quickly to get inside your shed
Also rain on the touch screen sometimes reads as a finger touch which causes the battery to go flat faster…
I see you’ve mentioned NfC so you should be able open it with your phone / smart watch. That’s a GOOD idea.
Mine doesn’t have that unfortunately, but the next one bloody will becuse I hate standing in the rain
I’ll be interested in seeing what you choose because I’m seriously thinking of replacing mine…
