It’s a dream reminiscent of The Jetsons. A stranger walks up to your locked home, and they are denied entry. But when you approach, the lock slides open, and you’re permitted to pass. George and company lived in a sci-fi cartoon (set in the year 2062), but in reality (and 2015), we’re just getting started with this once-imaginary technology. I installed an August Smart Lock and used it for a week to determine if the future has come home, yet. Installing August The August Smart Lock essentially replaces the latch on the inside of your door, a clever approach because snoops and burglars outside wouldn’t know there’s anything app-connected on the other side.
