  1. Nice video but now I’m more confused than ever thinking about all these options. When did locking the front door become so complicated? Perhaps that’s a good thing as it makes the life of intruders more difficult.

  2. Enjoyed your video but was a bit disappointed that you never touched on the most vulnerable part of all the locks that use keys and that is how easy it is to pick or bump these locks. I went with the August so I could use it with my Bowley unpickable deadbolt, now I sleep very soundly.
