We got our flat more than 7 years ago which means 6 years of fumbling for my keys whenever I got home 😅. I was always against the idea of digital locks for the longest time so I just opted for conventional locks. So I settled on a big padlock on our gate (which had alignment issues hence a bit of shaking every time) and a manual lock on our door.

So this year, I finally made decision to make our lives easier with a digital lock. There are plenty on the market but I was pretty impressed with the ones at Stärke. The products were easy to browse on their website and the features were explained in detail. In the end, we opted for the Starke Seamless™ Désignerin digital lock for our door.

I can’t believe it took me this long to realize how much more convenient it would with a digital lock! I had absolutely nothing to worry about in terms of security and safety but we now had the added advantage of convenience too!

There are many great features about the Starke Seamless™ Désignerin digital lock. It even has FIVE ways to access but I think one of my favourite (and coolest) features is the Fingerprint access. Yes, it’s true – I’ve always wanted to have a fingerprint lock just like what we see in the movies LOL and while it seemed so cool as a kid, what was once considered ‘futuristic’ is now a reality. Besides being super cool, it’s also very secure (fingerprint technology is one of the safest) plus no need to fumble around for your keys to unlock 😁. You can add up to 99 unique Fingerprint profiles!

The other access features are entering a Passcode on the keypad, tapping a small RFID card, a physical key as a back and there’s even a handy mobile app you can use for your Désignerin digital lock! I use Fingerprint the most and I enter the Passcode once in awhile (so I don’t forget it 😝) and the RFID is very handy for those who may not prefer the Fingerprint access like elderly parents or kids.

The bottom line is that the Starke Seamless™ Désignerin digital lock is super secure and easy to use plus it’s durable too with made with a Zinc Alloy and Stainless Steel. It is, after all, an award-winning German design 💪🏼

You can also set up admin and user profiles for your Starke Seamless™ Désignerin digital lock. This means multiple users and family members can access via secure methods. Just add them to access via Fingerprint or Passcode plus you can also configure the RFID tags too. The Starke Seamless™ Désignerin digital lock uses an anti-hacking PrintSave™ system to store passcodes and fingerprints

Besides the easy-to-us interface on the digital lock itself, you can also access multiple functions via a handy mobile app you can download to your smartphone! This means you can configure profiles, check on access logs and you can even lock/unlock you digital lock REMOTELY via the app! This means if your family members pop by before you make it home or maybe even if someone forgot their passcode/RFID, they just need to press the doorbell function on the digital lock and you can access it remotely when you receive the notification 🙌🏼.

So you can see that this means not only security but also convenience for you and your family 😁.

The installation was really seamless and quick by the way plus it was FREE installation. Installation expert was friendly and explained all the basic functions of the Starke Seamless™ Désignerin digital lock once he had completed the installation. This is also when I learned more about the battery life (lasts at least 1 year before change plus there’s an emergency USB power supply port). Definitely a big thumbs up! (And yes, I got to keep my old manual door lock in case y’all were wondering).

There are plenty more designs and products for you to choose from at STÄRKE. They’ve got plenty of designs for Door Locks, Gate Locks and even Bundle Locks if you’re planning to get both. They even have Smart Toilet Bowls too! My digital lock comes with a 2-year on-site warranty which means even more peace of mind.

There is plenty of emphasis on ‘smart living’ nowadays especially with the amazing technological advancements in the past few years. I guess it’s easy to be left behind when so many things are moving forward. Check out STÄRKE for some ideas on how you can make your life secure and convenient while moving with the times.

Be like me and move with the times – no more fumbling with my keys 😉.
