Love it!
This is hands down the best smart lock I’ve ever used.The fingerprint sensor works great. I set up the fingerprints of every family member, and none of them has a single complain about the fingerprint reader. Here’s a tip. When registering your fingerprint with the lock, you need to pay attention to the placement of your finger on the sensor. For example, if you keep repositioning your finger toward the tip, then use the tip area of the finger on the sensor. Now if you slide up your finger toward your knuckle, the fingerprint reader would likely not recognize your fingerprint and cause some frustration.I bought 2 of these, 1 for the front door and 1 for the garage entry door, both sharing the same Wifi hub. I do use a backup PIN but never had a need for it. Battery life is the greatest feature of this awesome fingerprint lock (well, besides the accurate fingerprint sensor). I have been using the locks for about 9 months, and battery indicator still reads about 3/4 full. I don’t know what type of battery optimization sorcery Philips used, but it’s totally working.I absolutely love this Philips fingerprint lock from a well-known, reputable company with great customer service. Highly recommend!

If you’re frustrated with other brands of keyless entry try this!
I’ve waited a few months before reviewing because I had another brand keyless entry that was cheaper and had so many problems with that brand (and the other brand wasn’t exactly cheap). I can say after using this multiple times a day over the last months the fingerprint scanner is absolutely excellent. The only issues I’ve had scanning was when I had something obscuring my print (like over spray from paint etc). A visiting friend used the touch pad with no problem but honestly we haven’t had to use it yet because the print scanner just simply works. Another thing we love that I thought was a gimmick: the magnet that tells you on the app if the door is open. This isn’t a sensor for when the door is just unlocked it literally tells you that the door is ajar etc. I thought this would be a glitchy gimmick but even testing it by almost closing the door (but not fully closing it leaving a tiny crack) the sensor knows it’s not aligned and says the door is open.We use the wifi to check on the app if the doors are unlocked before bed and you can press a button to lock them. You can have the app push you a message every time the lock in unlocked (whether manually or by fingerprint or code). You can customize the app so you get a many or as few notifications as you want, and thank god the app has yet to send us a “are you interested in this upgrade deal this month?’ or any nonsense. I’m old school and I don’t want an app for my refrigerator or lawnmower but in this instance I like having the app, the info, and being able to lock a door I forgot from across town.I’ve bought two so far and I’m going to get 2 more for “seldom used” doors just because it’s so handy. If you already have a deadbolt spot then installation is going to be a breeze, since I was replacing a similar sized off brand it took me less than 10 mins per lock since it was just a swap. Battery life so far is good, and the app will show you how much life is left. Cost more than other brands and 1000% worth it after struggling with another brand for almost a year. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Installation instructions didn’t match unit, overall happy with it so far
We just purchased and installed this lock (Oct 2025), it has a sticker inside the battery compartment cover listing the model as model DDL240X-1HB. It took us several hours to install, mainly due to the fact that the unit we were sent did not match the instruction booklet sent with it. It appeared to be a brand new, unopened box, just the unit itself is a slightly different model. There were differences, including the orientation and appearance of the wire plug inside the unit and the absence of the slide latches on the housing for the side of the lock that is indoors. The main differences we discovered were:1. mounting plate for the inside half was not the same as in the videos / included paper instructions2. The cable fastens to the side instead of “up”, the red markings have to face up, and you have to find a way to really shove / snug it in place. This took a few tries as we initially put it in upside down, then reoriented it and then had to disassemble everything again to push it further into place as apparently it wasn’t snug. There was no “snap in place” or definitive way of identifying the correct orientation for the plug.3. no “slides” to fasten the inside half of the housing to the mounting plate. Instead, you have to remove the plastic plate that is around the manual handle for locking / unlocking the unit to expose holes for lower screws. This was not in the included instructions and required prying the plate off of the lower part of the inside half of the unit.Installation was extremely frustrating due to the mismatch between the unit and included instructions. The model number is not unique, but if you continue to be persistent on the Philips website, you can find a video that matches this design (no slides) partially, but doesn’t capture the difference in the cable connector (nor does it show you prying off the plate – the plate just wasn’t shown in the video). If I hadn’t found that video, I would have returned the item because I couldn’t figure out how to attach it.Once we got through that and used the app to set it up, everything was awesome. The app is very user friendly, setting up the codes / fingerprints is very easy. Hopefully it will last longer than the Utec lock it is replacing.

Requires some DIY know-how. You’ll likely have to tinker a bit, drill some pilot holes, chisel out a channel for the latch bolt, extend the latch as needed. A dremel, drill and driver will be helpful. Have a good set of bits on hand. This is an hour or two install. Programming of the device with passcodes, fingerprints and linking the door sensor is a breeze.The app works well and I like the ability to use a physical key if needed. Philips uses a high-security lock cylinder that’s designed to resist sophisticated picking techniques and require a long unlocking time—over 270 minutes according to tests. It’s a quality lock and worth the price – just a shame it’s not integrated with Apple HomeKit.

This review may need adjusting over time, but this is my day one review.Order delivered as promised. Everything needed for installation was in the box. Installation was quick and easy. The lock works exactly as promised with the Phillips app. The fingerprint scan is instantaneous.Though I’ve specified the right network and password I’ve tried to connect the Bridge without success and that’s been very frustrating – the only reason I am giving 4 stars.
