I believe Amazon is price matching The Good Guys, but have selected Amazon for the deal since free delivery.

But may depend what discounted gift cards you have.

The Good Guys is $179 or $174 if using Price Check button but $8 delivery.

Bunnings has not price-matched, so assume can ask for 10% price beat until they do (currently $224.85).

The Eufy E110 is a newer model than the older T8520T11 S230, but less features, no fingerprint, different waterproof rating, auto-lock different and E110 takes AA batteries

I am hanging out for the Smart Lock C220 with fingerprint, as it looks more sleek than T8520T11 S230, but unfortunately it is a bunnings exclusive so probably will not go on sale and Amazon US no longer delivering Eufy to AU it seems.

  • Anyone know if these locks are good? Would love to here some experiences…

      I've had the fingerprint version for about a year and it's been great. The battery lasts ages and the fingerprint recognition works well. You can set multiple codes for different people. Not needing to carry keys is really convenient.

        Same here. Have these one two locks and works well.

    Word of warning to any prospective buyers, this smart lock is pretty mediocre as per LockPickingLawyer's review:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wME4qvu678c

    I've pretty much given up on getting a smart lock at the moment, will check back in a few years' time.

    • It would be good if they made them without physical keys, although i know is backup, but security flaw at same time.
      The 3-in-1 Video Smart Lock is even better with the camera built in, so can film / get alert of lockpickers and on sale at $599, but been at this sale price before - https://www.amazon.com.au/Eufy-Security-Video-Smart-Black/dp…

        You could always fill the key slot with araldite, if you had an alternate access method.

        • Ah good idea. Thanks :)

          The point of the keyway is mainly for mechanical access in case of a damaged pad or batteries that die.
          Lockwood make a Cortex digital lock, its main flaw is that it only has a pair of snake eyes on the digital version for dead batteries.

          TWO weeks ago someone peeled off the membrane cover on a lock at a gym and we couldn't bypass the pad with a key… drilled the lock per Lockwood's instructions.

          $700 odd wasted

    I'm a locksmith, most digital locks are shit house.

    If someone is wanting to get in, they will.
    The digital/smart lock is a convenience, it's not an added security feature.

    If you're in a home, have a keyed double-sided deadbolt fitted on the door also for when you go away.
    The point of a double-sided deadbolt is to prevent the thief from exiting through the front door if he broke in initially from a window. ( can't take a 70-inch telly through a window).

    I'll be fitting security keyed double-sided deadbolts to all my egress doors once I settle on my property soon.

    P.S The lock-picking lawyer videos should be taken with a grain of salt, picking a lock on a door crouched down, in the dark after many uses is very different from picking a cylinder in a vice on a bench brand new out of the box.

        You’re tell me to calm down ? Hahah
        I am giving professional advice, someone asked and I answered .
        I’m sure if you go to Bunnings and ask the paint desk a question and a painter over heard your question and assisted in giving advice you would be pleased .

        And yes we are building Fort Knox , peoples family are very important to them and security is a very important part of peace of mind and safety.

        And as I stated in my first line, if they want to get in , they are getting in.
        The harder you make it the better for you and your family

        Regards
        Very calm locksmith

      Why are most digital locks shit house compared to regular locks?

      • +5

        The main reason is the bolt, the drive on a smart lock has a motor-driven retraction.
        With a standard deadbolt, the bolt had a hardened inner core and a high-tensioned spring that helps with the locking of the bolt staying thrown when fully extended.
        Pulling apart a smart lock deadbolt is very basic with high tolerances, its normally a sliding piece of steel, nothing more.
        They do this because any resistance on the bolt when locking either retracts the bolt or throws and blows its back out eventually

        A lot of the high-end Samsung and Phillips smart locks don't have dead latching on the mortice lock version, some of these locks have already been changed for the Australian market but the older ones can be opened by sliding a card between the doors.

        Some home and contents insurance policies have a clause stating you need to have deadlatch/deadlocked doors, so those original Samsung were not sufficient, and a lot of the cheap Chinese ones.

          Hmm ok, i get what you are saying. But i just installed a smart lock and replaced the regular keyed lock. The cam was the same strength, the square spindle was the same diameter and the latch was the same. The through door bolts fixing the front and back plates together were more robust on the digital lock.The front and back plates were bigger on the digital lock, meaning the force is spread over a bigger area.

          The digital lock when you turn the handle with the door locked, the handle turns with no resistance meaning you can't turn it and torque the internals like you can with the old lock. Also the digital lock keyway is underneath the lock and much harder to access to pick, and the key is a better design than the old lock.

          So in my case, i cannot see any possible way the digital lock is less secure than the previous lock.

            @LowRange: We were talking about deadbolts, not deadlatches.. i think you're talking about a latch, not a bolt.
            A digital on a tubular latch should only ever be on an internal door, never the main security on a home or business.

            • @DJN: No i was just responding to your comment that "I'm a locksmith, most digital locks are shit house." and asked "Why are most digital locks shit house compared to regular locks?"

              You didn't mention that you were talking about deadlocks. But yes i put it on an external door, it's safer than the rear door which has a security screen and glass sliding door, i can pick both of those in under 5 minutes. I can get in the roller door in 30 seconds, mine and almost every other domestic roller door. The digital lock is not the weak point.

              But i have cameras, alarm and a 1 ton fireproof safe, home more often than not and live rural so have a pretty low need for bank grade security.

    • Can you please recommend a keyed double-sided deadbolt ?

      • +2

        BRAVA URBAN DEADBOLT SINGLE CYLINDER 60/70MM SATIN STAINLESS STEEL

        We install these, I swap out the inner cylinder to a security key like EVVA, too many people watching the lock-picking lawyer these days, and able to bypass most standard cylinders with ease.

    • Interesting approach.

      I figure I'm putting in an insurance claim either way, so if they have broken in, a thief carrying off my TV is one of the better outcomes. It means a new TV for me and makes it less likely they'll find and take something like my laptop, which is more work to set up a new one. Or something with personal value.

      Moving to Australia I was appalled at how easy it is to break in to your average Australian house. Lift a window out of its frame with in seconds, peel back a roof panel or pop some tiles. Doors are the least weak point on houses. If someone wants in they are getting in, cameras might provide some form of deterrent.

  • Has anyone found anywhere that sells the c220?
