Peek-Proof Digital Keypad (PIN Genie)
The patented PIN Genie keypad enhances security by dynamically shuffling the numbers on the touchscreen. This makes it impossible for onlookers to guess your code, even if they are watching you enter it.

Offline Access Codes (OAC)

Maintenance
Battery Replacement
The Lockly Model 6S operates on 4 AA batteries, providing up to 12 months of battery life. The lock will provide low battery alerts to notify you when replacement is needed. An emergency 9V battery port is available for temporary power if batteries fully deplete.
Cleaning and Care
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your lock, wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or electronic components.
Troubleshooting
- Keypad Not Responding or Fading: Ensure the keypad is clean and free from debris. If exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods, the screen visibility may be affected. Consider repositioning or adding shade if this is a persistent issue.
- Bluetooth Connection Issues: If the lock struggles to connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth, ensure you are within close proximity to the lock. Restarting the Lockly app or your phone's Bluetooth may resolve the issue.
- Lock Not Engaging/Disengaging: Check for any obstructions in the door frame or strike plate. Ensure the batteries are not low or depleted. If the issue persists, verify the installation alignment.
- Difficulty Programming Codes: Refer to the Lockly app or the full digital manual for precise programming steps. Ensure you are following the sequence correctly, especially for the dynamic PIN Genie keypad.
- Wi-Fi Hub Connectivity: If using the optional Wi-Fi hub, ensure it is placed within 30 feet of the lock for optimal signal strength. Verify that the hub is properly connected to your home Wi-Fi network.
