Whilst it’s not recommended to use the ROTHULT smart lock for your main entrance, it’s ideal for securing drawers or cabinets to keep personal items private.
It comes with a master keycard to ensure only you have access to your belongings. Plus, there’s no need to worry about sudden battery drain – the lock emits a clear beep when it’s time to replace the batteries, giving you ample time to swap them out.
