Premis is an intelligent lock that works with homekit and lets you operate your door by using Siri. It also has a code that's unique to you. It offers some great features for security, like the patented SecureScreen tech to prevent fingerprints being detected by your unique code.
The motorized deadbolt is operated by 4 AA batteries. It's easy to install, program and use.
Apple HomeKit enables you to control your lock via iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. It also lets you monitor and manage user codes remotely.
You can create as many as 30 codes for users, with four-eight digits. These codes can be personalized for family or guests to grant temporary access. Kwikset’s patented “SmartKey” technology allows you to rekey the lock on your door without removing it.
However, there are some downsides to the product. These include its poor battery performance, and a buggy software that can cause locking and unlocking to be unresponsive and slow. Although these issues do not impact the product's overall functionality, they should be considered.
Kwikset produces locks since a long time and it's always made sense for them to partner with Apple HomeKit. This gives their products the added intelligence they need. This is the case for Kwikset's touchscreen smart lock. It pairs with Apple's HomeKit to give you remote control from your smartphone.

How to test a Home Security System
Installing your alarm monitoring software on your computer is the first step. The latest version should be downloaded from the manufacturer's web site. Next, you will need to setup your phone number so that anyone calling the monitoring center is routed to your line. If you don't know what to do, contact your local provider for help. Once everything is setup correctly, you're ready to start testing!
Two main methods can be used to test your system. The first is to use a dummy. This is basically a fake device that looks like a real one. It has the same features as the real one, but it doesn't actually work. It works just like the real deal if it worked properly. There are downsides to using a dummy gadget. It won't give you any information about your system's actual functionality. Second, it might look suspicious to people who see it sitting around. It could also be stolen, which can cause problems.
You can also test your system manually. This involves going through the entire system one-by-one to make sure it is functioning properly. You would check, for example, whether the motion sensors are working, the cameras are recording properly, and if the door locks work. You should test each of these items at least once a week. After you've tested everything thoroughly, you can feel confident that your system is working well.
