If you're having trouble with your deadbolt rubbing and not working properly, check out the latest video:https://youtu.be/S-xbD34v6NY?si=i0Rm03tFkFRZv7x9

Seen so many electronic locks (and other outdoor electronics) stop working because of verdigris caused by temperature changes that I wouldn't invest in it. Might work well for people living in apartments or in the south, but for my home front door I'll keep with a mecanical one

In Florida, those E-Deadbolts rust away into dust, and the humidity destroys the electronics, you can put sealant around the unit, but it doesn't prevent damage.

Mechanical lock is basically an open door, according to Lock Picking Lawyer!

I want as few things that can be shut on/off, or opened/closed remotely, as I can possibly have in my life. If I have the only key then I am the only one who has access.

Electric, well battery powered works great. Has a key so no issues of it not letting you in. No wifi of Bluetooth for me.
