Fingerprint Cabinet Lock, Smart Electronic Cabinet Locks, Combination Password Drawer Lock with USBKEY Suitable for Office Cabinet, Wardrobes, Liquor, Weapon Storages and etc-ABS Lock Case

I think there's a lot of engineering that went into this little gadget that most folks might not appreciate; i built the cabinet i planned to install this on and found it very conducive to my project. There are some gaps in its design for sure, but for the price im really impressed so far.The fingerprint works better than most other locks I've had experience with. The fact that any currently authorized user can add another is great for my application. If the batteries die it automatically unlocks, and the mechanism is on a sort of oscillating spring, meaning if the latch catches when it dies, you just have to put a little pressure on the drawer to ease the tension and let the spring pull back the latch, mitigating any fears of not being able to get into the drawer without destroying the cabinet.The gaps are where you have to factory reset it to remove a fingerprint but that's trivial when only a handful of people would need access anyways. The keypad and fingerprint reader are solid built but the interior latch is where it starts to fail. The metal jamb plate needs sanded or grinded down about 1/32 of an inch to properly receive the latch if it's installed flush to the face of the drawer. That plate also prevents a perfectly flush fit from the whole interior latch box against it as the screws stick out about 1/8 inch, id be less worried about someone being able to force the drawer open it if was a perfect fit, all that would take is redesigning the metal jamb plate or fabricating a new one. The latch itself is plastic shrouded by aluminum, and it feels very lightweight and flimsy. The curve of the latch also prevents a smooth drawer closing. The programming instructions can be difficult to follow until you get the hang of it.Would still buy again.

To set up fingerprints, the batteries must be completely new, otherwise it will not work.

The poorly worded an inadequate instructions do not tell you how to change the master code, only how to change the user code. The master code unlocks the unit so not changing it mean anyone familiar with this unit has a code to your lock. I reached out to the seller on how to change it but they sent me a reply that only discussed to how to factory reset the unit.

This is a great little lock for your drawer. I thought the whole thing was made out of metal but it’s only the lock pad part and the lock. The mechanism that actually locks is plastic so I would think this is good for certain valuables. I wish it was all metal and more sturdy. Also it beeps every time you interact with it and there is no option to disable it.

The media could not be loaded. Installation is pretty simple if you have basic tools (Drill, proper sized drill bits, and a screwdriver). I installed on the top drawer for an oak desk and had to do some drilling, but was simple enough. Used a paint marker on the prongs (lipstick or crayon works too) to press into place and mark where to drill but would have been nice if it came with a template sticker or something but no big deal. Fingerprint reader seams accurate, opens reliably at different finger angles and doesn't open for wrong fingers. Setup was simple using the videos on the item page but the paper instructions weren't great for the fingerprint part on mine. I guess there's different versions? Oh well. All in all, it does what it's supposed to, seems secure, and a good value for the price. Wished it was 100% rechargeable vs batteries and plug in for backup power but that's a minor detail. Improvement could be made, but I'm sure that would up the price a fair bit as well so definitely for what I paid, I'm happy with it!

I use this on my pantry door to stop my autistic son from going in the pantry and eating at anytime as he has to be monitored. It allows me to put away anything he can not, or should not eat. I also keep medication locked up so less worrying.I love the key aspect. When someone comes to stay with him overnight they still have access to the food without me having to program their information in to the unit.Easy to use and install. Battery lasts a long time! I would recommend this product.

We bought this to lock up knives in the kitchen. Didn’t work for any of our pull out drawers.

We have had this installed for about 6 months now. The installation wasn't the easiest and I created a hole in the cabinet that wasn't aligned correctly (while using the guide). Once it was done correct, it worked great. As of now, the fingerprint pad no longer recognizes any fingerprints, but the numbers still work good. Easily secures the cabinet door
