Systems and methods for controlling access to a secured space are disclosed. The system includes a locking device fastenable to an access point of the secured space, a server, and a network for communication between the locking device and server. The locking device includes an actuator, a memory, and a processing unit for generating a control signal for the actuator to move the locking device into a locked state or a closed state. The server includes a storage unit to store authorization data for the locking device, and a processing unit which can receive a security request for the locking device from a user computing device; determine whether the security request includes requesting data that corresponds to the authorization data stored for the locking device; generate a security command based on the security request; and communicate the security command to the locking device.

An intelligent door lock system coupled to a door at a dwelling. a door status device is at the dwelling. The door status device is coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device at the door. The lock device is coupled to the door status device and includes a bolt. An engine, an energy source and a memory are coupled together. A camera is coupled to or part of the intelligent door lock system. The camera is configured to record in response to door lock status.

An apparatus for interacting with a latch of a door includes a contact component configured to make physical contact with the latch, an electrically-powered module, and a housing. The electrically-powered module is configured to move the contact component such that the contact component pushes the latch out of a bore of a door frame and into the door. The housing contains the electrically-powered module and the contact component, and is configured to fit within the bore of the door frame. The apparatus can also include a mounting plate attached to the housing, the mounting plate configured to mount the apparatus to the door frame such that the housing is disposed within the bore of the door frame.

The present disclosure provides a lock and a method and a system for controlling the lock. The lock may include an operation part, an action part, and a bolt. The action part may be configured to drive the bolt to move. The operation part and the action part may be connected to each other via a transmission connection. The transmission connection may be blockable.

An electronic lock with an electronic sensing arrangement to accurately sense relative positions of a bolt which mechanically locks a door, such as a door of an electronic drop safe, and to also sense an electronically controlled plunger which locks the bolt in place. The arrangement provides a mechanism for sensing a variety of mechanical malfunctions, as well as, potential fraud or tampering situations.

An electronic sensor and key operated lock is disclosed which provides users with the option to use at least one of a manually operated mechanism or for example a biometric sensor to unlock the lock. The lock integrates both the manually operated mechanism and a biometric sensor into one device. The manually operated mechanism and a biometric sensor are coupled to a common toggle switch so that operation of at least one of the manually operated mechanism and the biometric sensor moves the toggle switch and a shackle from locked and unlocked positions.

The present disclosure is directed to an electronic deadbolt control system including a deadbolt configured to extend or retract between a locked position and an unlocked position, respectively. An output shaft connected between a final gear and the deadbolt is configured to transmit an actuation force to the deadbolt from an electric motor. A first magnet and a second magnet are associated with the final gear to define a home position for either a left hand deadbolt or a right hand deadbolt. A cam is positioned on the output shaft to engage with a switch such that, in combination with a threshold current motor output, the control system determines whether the deadbolt is in an extended position or a retracted position. A thumb-turn shaft is disengaged from the final gear in the home position to permit manual actuation of a thumb-turn.

The present disclosure relates to a bi-directional overrunning clutch, electronic door locks having bi-directional overrunning clutches, and methods of using the same. In certain embodiments, the electronic door lock includes a first locking mechanism for driving an inner wheel through a first torque to rotate a rotatable shaft to operate a locking device on a door by a user from outside, a second locking mechanism for driving inner wheel through the first torque to operate the locking device from an inside, a third locking mechanism for driving an outer wheel rotatable coaxially around the rotatable shaft through a second torque to operate the locking device electronically, and the bi-directional overrunning clutch. When outer wheel rotates at second torque, inner wheel and rotatable shaft rotate along with outer wheel, and when inner wheel rotates at first torque, outer wheel does not rotate along with inner wheel and rotatable shaft.

A door lock device and a door lock having the same, wherein the door lock device includes: a switch mechanism capable of being operatively switched from a first position to a second position or a third position; an oblique tongue mechanism, including an oblique tongue body and an oblique tongue drive assembly, the oblique tongue drive assembly being connected to the switch mechanism, wherein, when the switch mechanism is in the first position, the oblique tongue body is in an extended state, and when the switch mechanism is switched from the first position to the second position or the third position, the switch mechanism drives the oblique tongue drive assembly, to drive the oblique tongue body to be in a retracted state; a deadbolt mechanism, including a deadbolt body and a deadbolt drive assembly; and a linkage mechanism connecting the switch mechanism and the tongue drive assembly. The door lock device can meet the demand, so that when the user uses a smart electronic lock, the deadbolt lock body can be maintained, thereby improving the safety factor and user experience.

A wireless access system at a building is provided. A door lock system includes: a lock status device configured to be coupled to the drive shaft of a lock device, the lock status device assisting in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device. A processor is coupled to the door lock system. An image capture device at the building is configured to be in communication with the door lock system and capture an image of an object in the vicinity of the building. A light source assembly is in communication with the image capture device.
