ClassicMuscle Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 We currently have a THICK from door that measure 3 inches. I was hoping to add a smart deadbolt to it that will trigger off the C4 door station, but all the lock companies (Baldwin, Kiwkset, Emtek, etc) are saying they only support up to about 2 1/4 or 2 1/2 door thickness. Even Baldwin's "thick door kit" cuts off at like 2.5 inches. I obviously don't want to change my front door, has anyone had a problem like this before?

ClassicMuscle Posted January 15, 2021 Author Share Posted January 15, 2021 Thanks, I am looking into August now. Has anyone integrated a Level bolt lock into C4 yet? The Level looks even more slick because it literally installs inside your existing lock and doesn't change the appearance of anything at all, but I don't see anything about C4 support on their website. https://level.co/products/bolt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And could it be triggered off a Control 4 door station with keypad? I found some other threads where it appears the Level locks are bluetooth only and will not work with C4.

msgreenf Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Level won't work. August integrates w a free driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, that's a shame that Level would make such a great looking product and then have it be BT only. Surely they know people looking to keep original lock hardware might be using home automation systems? Maybe they will upgrade it down the line....

BuffaloC4 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I took my Kwikset to a local locksmith and they found some extension “arm” to bridge the gap. My antique door was 3+ thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
