The connected home is only as secure as the locks used to keep thieves or assailants out, so the [Samsung](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultraloq-smart-home-locks) Smart Door Lock is innovatively designed to be a streamlined way to keep things safe.

Able to be accessed via [fingerprint scanning](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-fingerprint-padlock) or a secret code, the Samsung Smart Door Lock opens by pushing the lever from the outside and pulling it from the inside. Capable of storing the fingerprints of up to 100 individuals, the Samsung Smart Door Lock [conserves energy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultraloq-bolt-zwave) by powering down when not in use and waking up as soon as it senses movement from up to 70-centimeters away.

The Samsung Smart Door Lock is engineered to be perfect for offices or homes that require advanced security while still allowing approved individuals to enter and exit freely.
