Lockly Flex Touch Pro
The Flex Touch Pro from Lockly adds a fingerprint reader to
an existing deadbolt, making it a great solution for renters and
those who'd rather not change their current lock. It comes
with a Secure Link Wi-Fi Hub to augment the capability of
the lock, enabling features like remote control and real-time
monitoring from anywhere, as well as voice control via Alexa
or Google Assistant.

Turnkey Smart Doors & More Biometric Readers
Masonite M-Pwr Smart Door
There's a good reason why people like all-inclusive vacations.
When " everything is included, " it's so much simpler.
Masonite follows this line of thinking by developing an
exterior equipped with all the beloved bells-and-whistles -
an Amazon Ring Video Doorbell, Yale Door Lock, and LED
welcome lights.
A turnkey solution, the first-of-its-kind M-Pwr Smart Door
installs like any other door except for an electrician to wire it
in - the built-in tech runs off 120-AC instead of batteries.
This feature alone could be all the incentive your clients need
to drop about $6,500 for this trouble-free smart door. There
are no batteries to replace and even if the power goes out,
the M-Pwr Smart Door remains operational. An emergency
backup battery can sustain system power up to 24 hours.
From a companion app, users program and control the
motion-activated LED lights and confirm whether the door is
open or closed. It's a premium, beautifully built and designed
door that comes in a variety of styles, colors and finishes.
Biometric fingerprint readers on door locks are nothing
new, but it seems to be gaining popularity based on the number
of manufacturers promoting
the feature at CES
2023. It's a wise addition.
According to Global Industry
Analysts and Technavio, biometrics
will play a significant
role in global market growth
of digital door locks, a category
projected to reach $17.9
billion by 2027.

Smart Door will be available

gerprint Smart Door Lock
Securam has designed its
EOS Wi-Fi Fingerprint Smart
Door Lock to integrate with a
Wi-Fi Smart Wall Switch that
provides advanced laser light
motion detection and lighting
control. When the EOS
is unlocked, the Wall Switch
can activate select lights and
turn them off when the EOS is
locked. The Smart Wall Switch
can also monitor the area for
motion, utilizing more accurate
laser motion detectors instead of common PIRs.
Lockly's Flex Touch Pro
offers biometric entry to
a conventional deadbolt
via fingerprint scan.
Fostering Better Health &
Wellness from Entry-Level to Elite
Of all emerging smart home categories, perhaps none spans
the price spectrum more widely than health and wellness
products. Kohler's booth was like a high-tech spa, including:
Kohler Sprig Shower Infusion System
The entry-level $139 Sprig from Kohler retrofits onto an
existing showerhead and infuses the water stream with a
scent of your choice. A variety of infusion pods are available;
you simply place a pod in the integrated basket, turn on the
water, and breathe in.
Kohler Stillness Bath
At the other end of the price scale is Kohler's $8,000-tostart,
freestanding, luxurious Stillness Bath. The tub is made
for Zen-like soaking; recirculating and reheating the water
continuously. The water fills from the bottom of the basin,
overflowing into a hinoki wood base. From a remote control,
users can choose a preset " journey, " which adjusts the water,
lights and audio to simulate experiences such as walking
along a beach or forest.
