Eufy Smart Lock C33…a solid investment and well made.
I really did not want a deadbolt lock and this lever smart lock from Eufy was exactly what I was looking for. I have a couple video doorbells from eufy and was really impressed with those and their build quality. I was equally impressed with the door hardware and the deadlatch was beefier than the deadlatch on the old doorlatch it was replacing. Directions were pretty good just so small to see, but I had watched the installation video and that was very helpful.Yes, it really only takes about 15 minutes to install and set up (excluding the software update it installed when I was finished) I also just flipped the deadbolt to the lower hole on the door to ensure the eufy latch had clearance (its tall and would not have fit under the deadbolt as was the original configuration on the door. I already had the deadbolt installed below the door latch on one of my exterior doors (I am tall and just like the latch on the higher hole) so that install was even quicker. The finger (thumbprint) reader works great and fast. Now we know our two basement doors and the garage door are locked and secure every evening now. It specially makes my wife happy as I was constantly leaving those doors unlocked because I was always in and out of them so often and it was a pain to remember a key or having one hanging near the back doors. Now it’s fast easy access and I don’t need to remember to lock them afterwards…the smart lock latches now remember for me.I do not know how long batteries will last but once they go, I am just going to replace all 8 of them with rechargeable lithium AAs. Right now, I would highly recommend these lever smart locks especially easy if you have no deadbolt above your latch but it’s easy enough to just switch them around putting your deadbolt on the bottom and they look and feel really nice too.

Takes longer than 15 minutes to install.
This C33 replaced an older Schlage Smart lever lock that only opened with a code. My wife has long nails & can’t enter the code. This C33 has multiple ways to unlock besides a code. In addition to a code, there’s a fingerprint reader (that works great), Wi-Fi via the app, physical key, NFC card & Alexa. There’s even a power jack in the event the batteries die. There is a battery status icon in the app. It will also send a notication when batteries drop to 20%.7/13/2025 update..original factory batteries only lasted 2.5 months. Hopefully brand name batteries will last 12 months as promised.Replacement was simple until it came to attaching the back half (contains the batteries). The cable seemed to get in the way preventing the back unit from sitting flush with the door. I moved it around countless times times before it worked. The only modification I had to make was enlarging the door jamb for the Eufy striker plate (Schlage plate wouldn’t work). All total it took about one hour.It took another 10 minutes per user to set up in the app, individual codes, fingerprints & Eufy NFC card. NFC cards were an option ($20 for 3 pak). All things considered this is a great well thought out lock except for that cable problem (hope they fix that0.

Good useful product and very good quality
