Installation found that there is such a big difference between embedded and external locking smart locks, so it turns out that the embedded locking

The installation methods of smart lock mounting panels on the market can be divided into two categories: embedded and external locks. Embedded is generally used as a manufacturer for anti-tube doors (customized for anti-tube door brands). External locks are mainly professional manufacturers with fingerprint locks, which means that embedded ones are generally not available for purchase in end retail stores.

Then what are the advantages and disadvantages of embedded and externally mounted smart locks? Choosing which one is better depends on the specific needs and usage scenarios. The following is the main difference and applicable scene analysis of the two:

1. Core difference

1. Installation method

• Embedded smart lock: The internal structure (such as locks, lock cores, panels) that need to be embedded in the door usually requires professional installation, which may involve cutting or modification of the door.
• External hanging smart lock: It is installed directly on the outer surface of the door (such as the inner or outer side), without breaking the door body, the installation is simple and can be operated by yourself. You need to control the size of the lock core, flat bar and square bar (core point).

2.Appearance and obscurity

• Embedded: It blends into one body with the door fan, and is simple and obscurity, with better overall nature and flatness, and does not affect the overall design of the door.
• External hanging style: Exposed installation may appear abrupt, but some stylish designs can also enhance the sense of technology, especially the fully automatic smart lock with outer hanging.

3. Security

• Embedded: The lock is embedded in the door, which has stronger pry resistance and better physical protection.
• External hanging style: Exposed structure may become a target for damage, but high-end products will be equipped with anti-plitting alarm, reinforcement panels and other functions.

4. Compatibility and Applicability

• Embedded: The thickness and material requirements of the door are higher (such as wooden doors and anti-block doors), and old doors may need to be modified.
• Exterior hanging style: It is suitable for most door types (including glass doors and iron doors), especially for renting houses or temporarily used.

5. Price and maintenance

• Embedded: Some people may think that embedded smart locks are priced higher, but in fact, the opposite is true, because their outer panels are smaller and use less, and installation and later maintenance or replacement require professionals.
• External hanging style: External hanging style has a higher price. For people with better hand skills, they need a brief introduction and can be installed without professional staff.

2. Recommendations for applicable scenes

1. Select embedded smart locks

Long-term self-occupied housing, pursuing high safety and aesthetics.

Door structure allows for renovation (such as new decoration or custom door).

Adequate budget, willing to buy orders for obscurity and protection.

2. Selection of externally-opened smart lock

Rent a house, use it at a time, or move frequently (removable and taken away).

Doors are not suitable for renovation (such as glass doors, thin wooden doors).

Budget is limited, or requires quick installation (such as old small areas).

3. Supplementary suggestions

• Security priority: Regardless of the type, choose a well-known brand and support C-level lock core, anti-small black box attack, and virtual password.
• Functional Requirements: Check whether additional functions such as network, fingerprint identification, temporary password, image head (both types can be realized).
• Installation consultation: Before purchasing, you must measure the thickness and material of the door, and consult the merchant\’s compatibility to avoid installation failures.

1. Through the analysis of the above three points, you have a certain understanding of external viewing and embedded ones, depending on your own needs.

2. If the externally-opened intelligent lock is damaged, it is likely that the original manufacturer can buy it (the hole distance of the lock will be different, and the holes purchased outside may not be able to retract the original hole).

3. It may also be that the embedded fingerprint lock cannot be purchased. As a result, this lock has a small sales volume, so I can consider buying an external lock.

4. Embedded modification of the external hanging smart lock is relatively costly, because the outer panel needs to be installed with holes.

5. If the embedded smart lock is originally in the case where the internal and external panels are larger, real-time external locks may appear, and the circular holes may not be closed. It requires beauty before installation, so you will have to lose it.

You can use the above points to analyze. It is recommended that you do not choose when buying a door.The cutting-edge fingerprint lock directly considers buying an external lock-up smart lock. It is more convenient to change later and will not be able to buy a lock. This is obtained from years of experience, and I hope it will be useful to the big company.
