There are tons of gadgets that have been crafted with the goal of making our everyday lives easier, and one smart device that's become popular in recent years is the smart lock. Designed to eradicate the need for a physical key, smart locks come in various forms and have been created as a newer, more efficient way to enter your home and to keep it safe. And the U-Bolt Smart Lock ($170, originally $240) might just be the coolest one yet.
The U-Bolt Smart Lock lets people access their homes in four unique ways — by fingerprint, numeric code, smartphone app, or physical key. It also comes with an auto lock and unlock feature, lets you share a code or an eKey for specific periods of time (think holiday rentals) and also keeps a log of who has entered your home and when, all viewable directly on your smartphone.
You can purchase the U-Bolt Smart Lock on Amazon with or without expert setup (which comes in at an extra $109).
