Blynk Freezes and Goes Offline at Random Times

Wow, that is an ugly looking piece of hardware!
I can’t imagine how the conversation would go with Mrs K if I planned to fit something like that on our front door :crazy_face:

Did you ever consider fitting 12v electric releases into the door frame instead? I use that type of system on the outside gate of our holiday home in Spain, along with an RFID system and Blynk/Alexa integration and it works very nicely.

@PeteKnight :scream: Ouch lol. Using an electronic lock was my first thought for this project, but I live in an apartment and we aren’t allowed to modify the locks (I guess their key has to work). So instead I went with something external that I could mount to the wall with wall safe mounting tape.

I wasn’t suggesting modifying the lock, but fitting an electronic keep.
