Setup and Installation
The Dermum Sifely X1 Smart Door Lock is designed for DIY installation with minimal tools. A Phillips screwdriver is typically the only tool required. No extra drilling or locksmith is needed for standard installations.
Door Compatibility
- Door Thickness: 1 5/16" to 2" (33mm - 50mm)
- Bore Hole Diameter: 2 1/8" (54mm)
- Bore Hole Backset: 2 3/8" (60mm) or 2 3/4" (70mm)
The door handle is reversible for both left and right-handed doors. Due to the lock's size, it may interfere with screen doors or storm doors. If an existing deadbolt is present, install the smart lock on the top bore hole and move the deadbolt to the bottom bore hole to avoid installation issues.

Maintenance
- Battery Replacement: Replace all four AA batteries when the low battery indicator appears or when the lock's performance degrades. Always use new, high-quality alkaline batteries.
- Cleaning: Clean the lock's exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish and electronic components.
- Fingerprint Sensor: Keep the fingerprint sensor clean and dry for optimal performance.
- Moving Parts: Do not lubricate the lock cylinder or internal mechanisms with oil-based lubricants. If the mechanism feels stiff, consult customer support.
Troubleshooting
- Lock Not Responding: Check battery levels. If batteries are depleted, use the physical key or connect a power bank to the emergency power port.
- Fingerprint Not Recognized: Ensure your finger is clean and dry. Try re-registering your fingerprint.
- Keypad Not Lighting Up: Touch the screen to activate. If it still doesn't light up, check battery connections or replace batteries.
- Auto-Lock Malfunction: Verify auto-lock settings in the Sifely Smart Lock App. Ensure the door sensor (if applicable) is clean and unobstructed.
- App Connectivity Issues: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and you are within range of the lock. If using the WiFi Gateway, ensure it is properly connected to your home network.
- Lock is Stuck/Won't Open: First, try the physical key. If the issue persists, do not force the handle. Contact customer support immediately.
