Homeowner Forum / Home Automation / June 2007Need info on remote control deadbolt door locks
Hi All, I need recommendations on a good RF remote deadbolt door lock system. I found several e-tailers that sell them but don't know which brand is best/most reliable. I'm disabled and need this to be able to unlock my apt. door while I'm in bed. The bed is approx. 30' away from the door, that seems to be the max. for most systems I saw. Thanks for any info you can provide! > I need recommendations on a good RF remote > deadbolt door lock system.

There are several commercial quality electric door strikes which you might want to consider. These use your conventional door lock but replace the rectangular, metal strike plate on the door frame. You've likely seen similar devices on apartment building doors. There is a gate (called a "keeper") on the strike which swings free, releasing the door when it gets a low voltage electrical current, usually 12 or 24 VDC. One advantage to using a strike is it doesn't require running electrical wires into the door itself -- only the frame. Another is that good quality strikes cost significantly less than good quality automated deadbolts. > The bed is approx. 30' away from the door, > that seems to be the max. for most systems > I saw. Thanks for any info you can provide! I've put together packages for this sort of thing before. You'll need a power supply with a backup battery (so you can still open the door if the power goes out), a strike, a wireless receiver and a small wireless transmitter. I make my living selling these systems to upscale homes and to business clients. If you need it for a long-term disability contact me and I'll send you what you need at cost as a courtesy.

TWENTY-NINE complaints... http:///www.bbbwestflorida.org/commonreport.html?bid=41001663 I'm positive you'll be able to hit "30" by the end of the month. ;-) To the OP: Contact a local alarm dealer to help you. Seeing as how you're disabled, I honestly don't think going the DIY route will fit your needs. And if you DO contact this crook (Bass), make sure you vet any prices he gives you on components through the Group. You should also have a look at: http://www.yoursecuritysource.buyingonline.htm Good luck!!! > Jeeze, Bass... Bass offers to GIVE the stuff to the guy and all you can offer is abuse?

What I gave was sound advice (considering the facts I have to hand). What exactly has Bass done?? EVERY "helpful post" he makes includes a "buy me" button. Not to mention flooding the Group with "PR" posts. > >> Jeeze, Bass... > > > > Bass offers to GIVE the stuff to the guy and all you can offer is abuse? > > Seems like you're the bigger jerk here... > > What I gave was sound advice Oh that's bullshit and you know it. >>>> Jeeze, Bass... >>> Bass offers to GIVE the stuff to the guy and all you can offer is abuse? >>> Seems like you're the bigger jerk here... >> What I gave was sound advice > > Oh that's bullshit and you know it. We'll agree to disagree on that, Bill. You must figure I wrote his BBB report. :-) > We'll agree to disagree on that, Bill. > You must figure I wrote his BBB report. :-) Sort of. You and several of your pals from the alarm newsgroup filed bogus complaints. You'd whine if I helped an old lady cross the street.

I've never even contacted your BBB, let alone filed a false complaint against you (and neither has Graham). It's simply amazing to me (what with your various companies having been directly scrutinized by the BBB for years and the fact that you're no doubt far more familiar with their investigative methods), that you insist on continuing to regale us with such outrageous lies. > You and I both know this to be untrue... Actually, I know that you lie all the time. You know it. Everyone knows it. That's about all I plan to say to you.

For someone that "doesn't want to fight", you just can't leave well enough alone can you? > Feel free > to continue posting all the lies you want. You've never proved I've lied about anything. I wish I could say the same about you. Hi! Try the door locks from Simon Voss. You can controll them either by a remote, or by a wireless biometric reader, or even throug the internet. usa@simon-voss.com |
