Recently launched on Xiaomi Youpin Crowdfunding, the Arkfish Smart Room Door Lock S5 stands out as a fingerprint lock designed for indoor use. From an aesthetic perspective, this door lock boasts a simpler design compared to entrance door locks, with both the password input button and fingerprint recognition seamlessly integrated into the door handle.
According to the official announcement, replacing the original door lock with this innovative device is a swift and straightforward process. You can easily disassemble and assemble it within seconds, requiring only a screwdriver for installation.
Notably, it is compatible with 95% of wooden doors and supports the direct replacement of ball locks, single tongue locks, and split locks. Featuring five unlocking methods—”fingerprint, long-term password, periodic password, Bluetooth, and key”—it also supports Mijia smart linkage.
Additionally, the Xiaomi Arkfish Smart Room Door Lock S5 includes a “one-button lock normally open mode,” providing the flexibility to switch modes effortlessly for various scenarios. For instance, users can activate the normally open mode when there are no outsiders at home, allowing for convenient self-access. When guests arrive, a single click turns off the normally open mode, ensuring privacy protection.
Moreover, this functionality proves beneficial for those sharing a house with friends. The Mijia App integrates the door lock into the Mijia ecosystem, providing one-stop management and seamless linkage with other Mijia smart home devices. The Arkfish Smart Room Door Lock S5 is powered by 4 AAA batteries for a 300-day lifespan, addressing battery life concerns. It also supports USB-C emergency power supply and physical key unlocking.
