Hi! why did you change the lock at first?

@andysreviewsandsmarthometips 20 күн бұрын

@@aminefahel this was because you need a lock with a safety feature. By this I mean that you can unlock the lock from the outside when a key is inserted on the inside.

Hi Andy Love the video and help for installation. I just had mine installed following your steps. Im currently in a position where some idiot has pressed reset on the number pad and I am locked out. When trying to redo the set up I need the QR code fro the lock on the inside of the lock where I cant reach and my keys cant open the door as there is already a key on the other side where the mechanism is. Any suggestions? thanks

@@diechicken888 hi, how did somebody manage to reset the lock without the fingerprint or passcode of the administrative user? Also it is recommended that you have a lock with a safety feature installed meaning that you should be able to unlock the door from the outside even with a key on the inside. my only suggestion would be that if you have another door, try and get in that way otherwise I am unsure how to help you with this. No one should’ve been able to reset the lock without the admin fingerprint or password though.

Do you really need the emergency function with the keys opening at any time or can it be installed without having it?

@andysreviewsandsmarthometips Ай бұрын

@@thegiantdutchman if you do not have the emergency function, you will not be able to unlock the door from the outside. As this is a retrofit lock, the lock must be able to unlock from both sides if anything fails. For example, if for some reason you did not have any charge on the door lock itself and you were outside the house then you would not be able to unlock the door from the outside and get in

What lock did you buy? Also was it 40/40 etc? My door is the same as yours.

Hi Andy, how can I wire my U200 keypad? I'm also using the G4 doorbell? Did you power it using a wall plug or?

@andysreviewsandsmarthometips Ай бұрын

@@Tty85 hi there, for this particular installation I used two different adapters for the keypad and the G4 however if you get a power adapter that is 8 to 24 V and a minimum of one amp then you can power both devices from the same plug. You do this by putting. A three way. WAGO connect to on the positive wire and the same on the negative wire. Then you can run two positive wires and two negative wires each to each device if this makes sense. This way you can power both devices from one individual plug. If you need more instruction, get back to me on my Facebook page. facebook.com/AndysReviewsAndSmartHomeTips and I can help further.

@@andysreviewsandsmarthometips My G4 doorbell is wired and gets power from old doorbell. It was an old doorbell, but an electrician put some fast glass fuses and transform from 220V to 12-24V.

@andysreviewsandsmarthometips Ай бұрын

@@Tty85 in this case, I would personally recommend contacting the electrician that installed it as I do not feel qualified to advise you on this particular set up. If anything went wrong, I would hate to be the one that gave you the wrong advice. I know that it can be done so that both devices are powered from the same source, however, like I say, I would consult your electrician since it is wired into a main system

@@andysreviewsandsmarthometipsor if you were using an 8v to 24v you could just wire the positive of the keypad to the positive of the G4 and the same with the negatives. Job done!

I don’t think you needed to screw the baseplate to the door, you can secure it to the cylinder using the supplied Allen key

Andy I need some help. I’m really struggling. 1st I got a thumb turn cylinder as I’ve a odd cylinder size and couldn’t get a double entry. Fitted that. Fitted u200 I’ve now a predicament where only my internal handle engages with the latch and only a key turn either side also operates the latch. Problem being the key turn doesn’t fully retract for the hook bolt and dead bolts. They do move but could do with retracting another 5 to 10mm which seems odd. A push of the handle retracts the bolts properly but as I 1st mentioned I’d be stuck out still in testing because the external handle doesn’t retract the latch because I have a particular spindle… I so want this to work somehow but I’m borderline boxing it all back up and sending back. I’m losing the will to live. In your video it seems your handle only does a latch and 1 deadbolt?

Thinking of switching the old deadbolt out in place of a euro profile mortice or similar. If youve any tips / suggestions would appreciate it.
