Smart Lock for Door With No Knob

dingledosser

My front door is a knobless wonder, i.e. it has no handle or knob - you use the key to unlock the deadbolt, then you must turn the key another 30 degrees or so to actually open the door. I'm sure there's a fancier name for what I just described.

Anyway... does anyone know if any smart locks cater for this type of knobless/handleless door? Preferably one that doesn't replace the deadbolt.

Thanks in advance.

Would something like this work for you???

Clareman, I don't know, that's kinda the question really. That lock, and many like it, use a motor to unlock the deadbolt. What I'm trying to find out is, can the motor spin more once the deadbolt is unlocked to 'unlatch' and open the door. I can't find an answer in any of the descriptions, so I was hoping someone here had first hand experience.

I have a similar lock and have a Nuki 2.0 and it works well. Only problem is glitch with the door open/closed sensor magnet, the lock itself is great. Key stays in the lock on the inside and Nuki clamps it and turns it. I replaced my lock cylinder to get enough protruding on the inside to be able to clamp the mounting bracket onto it with allen screws, nice and solid now whereas before the adhesive mount wasn’t great. App is excellent.
