    Has anyone any experience with a product for this?

    Used a fee abroad for airbnbs and thought it would be handy to not have to worry about a key here too.

    Probably alright in theory but then the security gets bypassed

    Most door locks on most Irish homes are super easy to break anyway. Never mind someone just coming through a window.

    In general, I’d say a smart door lock would be less likely to be bypassed, then a standard door lock.

    Smart door locks have some advantages, a person who gets one likely has an alarm system, security systems, etc. so if you like the advantages of it, I wouldn’t worry too much about it being hacked, etc.

    Of course assuming it can’t be bypassed with a **** magnet bypass. Queue the lock picking lawyer :)
