Your front door lock is an unsung hero, quietly standing guard to keep thieves and rogues at bay. Smart locks are the superheroes of the species, with special powers that make life more convenient (and a little more fun). Most smart locks come in one of two styles: a deadbolt replacement or a deadbolt adapter (which replaces the thumb turn with a motorized one). We strongly prefer deadbolt replacements, and we recommend the Ultraloq U-Bolt Pro WiFi, a small, attractive, easy-to-learn model that you can trigger in multiple ways, including by fingerprint or keypad. If you can’t replace your entire lock or don’t want to, the Wyze Lock has sturdy, reliable hardware and software, offers a good-looking design, and is as smart as or smarter than many competing locks, all for about half the price.

Most people wonder how a valet key is different than a standard car key, but it is wise to think of this type of option as a ‘bare bones’ type duplicate. Locksmiths make valet keys to have very basic functions: unlocking doors and starting the ignition but cannot gain entry to trunks or glove boxes.
