A new door locking system, the Schlage LiNKsystem, can be wirelessly set and opened via the Internet or from a mobile phone. Users can lock or unlock the deadbolt, as well as change, activate or disable the locks using a secure four-digit code. If the high-tech approach isn’t reasonable, the lock can also be opened using a keypad or the old-fashioned way with a key. Through an online portal, homeowners also can program user codes for specific days and times, receive notifications when certain codes are used and track codes that have been used in a 90-day period. A Schlage kit, which the company says is a first, includes the lock and the wireless bridge to communicate with the lock. It sells for $299, plus there’s a $13 monthly fee to use the applications that control the locks remotely. The lock system will be available in October.
