ARPHA’s smart lock combines a fingerprint reader, keypad, and a camera into a single unit you install on your door. This integration is the main point. You get keyless entry and a video doorbell without managing two separate devices and their respective apps.

The fingerprint sensor unlocks the door in about a second. It’s the method you’ll use most days. The built-in camera provides a 160-degree view and activates two-way audio through the app, so you can see and speak to anyone at the door from anywhere. Auto-lock engages 30 seconds after the door closes, a simple feature that becomes a reliable habit. The aluminum construction feels solid, and the unit is rated IP65 for weather resistance.

Setup requires connecting it to your home WiFi and a straightforward replacement of your existing deadbolt. The system operates on eight AA batteries, which typically last about six months. While the app is functional, its notification settings benefit from some initial calibration to avoid unnecessary alerts.
