If Auto-Lock is OFF, your non-app locking options may be limited (depending on model).
Some AUSLOCK models require Auto-Lock to be enabled for automatic locking. If you turn it off, you may need another method to lock without using the app.
Options to lock without the app
- Enable Auto-Lock: Set a short delay (e.g. 3–10 seconds).
- Use an AUSLOCK Remote (if supported): Lock/unlock with a button.
- Use the internal lock mechanism: Some models have a thumbturn or internal lock action.
Recommended setting for most homes
Turn Auto-Lock ON with a short delay so the door locks reliably after closing.
Tip: Keep your door open while testing settings to avoid lockouts.
