This is not quite the lowest price we\u2019ve seen for this model \u2014 it has dropped to $139 in the past \u2014 but this is still a solid discount.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"end-legacy-contents\" \/><\/p>\n<p \/>\n<p>This is one of our favorite smart locks. We gave it <a data-i13n=\"cpos:4;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/august-wifi-smart-lock-review-174512379.html\">a score of 80 in our review<\/a>. It&#8217;s easy to install and the smart lock won&#8217;t take up too much space, so it shouldn&#8217;t look too clunky on your door \u2014 it&#8217;s slimmer than prior iterations. You won&#8217;t need a separate bridge device to use the Wi-Fi feature either, as it can directly connect to your network. On that note, August&#8217;s fourth-gen smart lock is only compatible with 2.4GHz networks, so you may need to adjust your router settings to account for that.<\/p>\n<p>The smart lock should work with <a data-i13n=\"cpos:5;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/support.august.com\/deadbolt-compatibility-list-rkzJDLyR_G\">most existing deadbolts<\/a>, so you&#8217;ll be able to use the same physical keys if need be. That&#8217;s handy for when your Wi-Fi is on the fritz. Otherwise, you&#8217;ll be able to lock and unlock your door remotely, including with the likes of Alexa and Google Assistant. You&#8217;ll also have the ability to provide guests (such as kind friends who are checking on pets and plants while you&#8217;re away) with timed-entry keys, which will allow them to enter without having to wait for you to unlock the door manually.<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow <\/em><a data-i13n=\"cpos:6;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EngadgetDeals\"><em>@EngadgetDeals<\/em><\/a><em> on Twitter and <\/em><a data-i13n=\"cpos:7;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/subscription.yahoo.net\/Newsletter\/Preference\/sub?b=engadgetdeals&amp;src\"><em>subscribe to the Engadget Deals newsletter<\/em><\/a><em> for the latest tech deals and buying advice.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/augusts-fourth-gen-smart-lock-is-31-percent-off-for-october-prime-day-144636330.html?src=rss&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Engadget &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/augusts-fourth-gen-smart-lock-is-31-percent-off-for-october-prime-day-144636330.html?src=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">August&#8217;s fourth-gen smart lock is 31 percent off for October Prime Day<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The huge October Prime Day sale isn\u2019t done yet.
