Thanks and welcome

I like this video and the details you captured. At the time of this video you were doing an install of Latch, any plans to do an updated video on how it is going for all sides using the setup? I'd be really curious to hear the feedback by all.

can you show how to install the M type lock? or do you already have a video of a full install? we getting 46 of those locks to add to existing doors. thanks,

I would really like to see a video/pictures of the actual installation in your development... can we see how it works now?

Great video & product! I'm wondering if Latch depends on Internet access, what happens when operator in the area has disruption in the service?

The M series uses bluetooth, but the intercom requires internet access. The intercom uses cellular as a backup.

How about making a video on how to replace batteries when they run out of power. Management is supposed to replace as needed, but never do it. Replacement falls on tenants.

How many minutes does it take to install Latch R ? Where do you find the guy to install Latch? Does every handyman capable of installing? Thanx Derek

The R reader required additional wiring through the door to our IT closet so it was done over the course of a day. Latch can refer you to installers in your area.. I'd recommend sticking with a certified installer because there's a software component as well that handymen may not be familiar with.

where can i buy this door lock for my condo apartment ?

I hope LATCH will enter the SFH market soon, not least of all because I will soon be starting the process of building my own new home!

What happens to the physical key and lock when your tenants switch?

The cylinder is standard and can be swapped out if we want to change physical keys.

If I’m a resident at a apartment, does the Latch take a picture of me every time I walk in?

Great video although I was hoping for more depth when it came to installation. Especially power supply / wiring

We used a subcontractor to do the install, but the M series is actually powered by AA batteries and connects via bluetooth. The R series requires low voltage wiring. From the manual, these are the power supply requirements: - Class 2 Isolated, UL Listed Power Supply - Supply Voltage: 12VDC to 24VDC - Operating Power: 6W (0.5A @12VDC, 0.25A @24VDC)

@@TheProptechScout True, one additional important detail however is the M Series has a optional permanent powering method which can be found in the Installation Guide. This is what actually brought me to this video. I was hoping to see an example of this installation method.

Derek, so labor to install will be 3 guys in 2 Days for 16 units total labor $1,500.00?

Take it as a guideline. Vendor pricing will vary depending on number of doors and site conditions. For example, our doors had to be drilled, but if we bought new doors with pre drilled holes, install would've been way quicker and cheaper.

It's probably harder to hack a smart lock than to pick a traditional lock... until quantum computers destroy all encryption-based security as we know it.

@@TheProptechScout No, it's easier to hack a Latch. All you have to do is acquire the software/script needed. Especially if the management company did a poor job of configuring it during installation. In order to pick a lock the individual needs to actually develop the skills of lock picking on top of having the right picks. I've unlocked my neighbors Latch on accident, I've never accidentally unlocked the wrong door with a physical key.

Latch locks worst idea for a problem that doesn't exist. My building had these installed and every tenant hates for a variety of reasons. People get locked out of apartments, because they forget to take phones with them, when throwing out garbage. Management doesnt replace batteries when needed, and tenants get locked out.

Latch stock plummeted, I’m thinking about buying in.

Latch lock system suck. They often break with to door remaining open. Bad for security.

Came for the Sam Smith song, this is much better!

Without an intercom system, latch sucks

Latch is garbage. After my apartment complex decided to use Latch a few years ago, I promise I will never live anywhere that has Latch branded locks ever again. In my entire life, I've had a physical key lock fail on me once. Ever. in over 40 years of unlocking doors. Every couple of months my front door decides it doesn't feel like unlocking (always when I have to pee) or it doesn't want to lock when I'm trying to leave and trust my front door to be locked. No explanation, no avenue for support or answers, just try it again and again until it finally decides to work. I've gotten really good at breaking into my apartment through the window, though.
