  1. I am not expecting a lot of people at all - I hadn't realised the control4 system could manage access control like this. I don't want to give someone access to my control4 system just so they can come in the door (eg the cleaner). There is no iPhone unlock app discrete from the control4 app? I thought a 'standard' lock app would allow people like the cleaner to access the house. Perhaps I am missing the point or being slow and should speak to my dealer. I'll give up on the danalock anyway - thanks for clarifying that

  2. What I am looking for is the ability to control an electronic lock with a Bluetooth smartphone (with functionality for 'keys' which I can grant people permanently or temporarily) which ideally integrates into Control4. Kwikset kevo, August, danalock, etc have their key functionality but only this danalock product can control an existing electronic lock and I don't think any of these products integrate with control4 anyway.

    Are any of the alternatives you mention suitable for Bluetooth control of a lock like I am trying to achieve?

    Another option I have found is an ECKey VP1 but that is a few hundred dollars for the Bluetooth reader, a couple of hundred for Houselogix's wiegand serial interface, a couple of hundred for Houselogix's access control database and an annual $40 fee for ECKey to manage keys. This all adds up to a lot more than a danalock if there was an appropriate way to integrate it with Control4.

    Perhaps I am missing an obvious solution?

    Thanks

  3. Has anyone seen a control4 driver for the danalock smart lock products? Or is anyone working on one? Their danalock universal module (sometimes shown as danalock garage) can control motorised locks, electric locks, garage doors, etc) so is very flexible and would be great to integrate into Control4.
