Buyers4.61,170 ratings

Owners love the convenience of multiple unlock methods, sleek design, and remote access, but durability in humid climates and fingerprint reliability in wet conditions divide satisfaction.

Brand claims3/4 true4 promises checked

Lockly's marketing is honest about installation ease, remote app functionality, and voice control compatibility—all well-supported by owner feedback. However, the claim of "advanced 3D biometric fingerprint access" overstates reliability, as the 3.5/5 fingerprint score and owner complaints reveal significant failures in humid and wet conditions. Security claims remain unverified by the available data.

The verdict

What the panel makes of it.

The Lockly Secure Pro ranks #8 among smart locks and delivers on convenience with multiple unlock methods and remote access, but fingerprint recognition falters in wet and humid conditions, making it more reliable for controlled indoor environments than bathrooms or damp climates.

Review 6 highlights fingerprint failure in damp conditions and screen degradation in humid climates—durability concerns that align with the biometric reliability weakness buyers identified.

In their words

Installed this on my entry door a few weeks ago and it’s been excellent. Setup was quick, and the app works smoothly for locking/unlocking remotely. The build feels solid and the satin nickel finish looks great. Love the convenience and peace of mind it gives. Would definitely recommend.

Chestie · verified purchase · homedepot.com

Don’t waste your money on this lock, especially if you live in a wet or humid climate! Fingerprint feature won’t work if your hands are damp from humidity, sweat or rain! Also, after 1.5 years in the Florida sun, the plastic screen peels and cracks to the point you can’t read any of the numbers! I loved it at first, but it quickly turned into a huge disappointment.
