The BT-100 Bio App digital lock from AGL Brazil is a modern and secure solution for homes and businesses, offering various access methods such as biometrics, RFID tags, and mechanical keys. If you have just acquired this lock or are considering purchasing it, follow these tips to ensure a quick and hassle-free installation.
1. Gather the Necessary Tools
Before starting the installation, make sure you have the following tools on hand:
Drill
Suitable drill bits for wood or metal
Screwdriver
Tape measure
Marker pencil
Bubble level
2. Check the Door Compatibility
The BT-100 Bio App is compatible with doors that are 35mm to 50mm thick. Make sure your door meets these specifications. Additionally, check whether the door opens inwards or outwards, as this can influence the installation orientation.
3. Mark the Drilling Points
Position the lock at the desired height on the door (usually between 90cm and 110cm from the ground) and use the paper template that comes with the product to mark the points where drilling will be done. Ensure that the markings are level.
4. Drill the Holes
With the markings made, use the drill to create the necessary holes in the door. If the door is wooden, use a drill bit specifically for wood; if it is metal, use a drill bit for metal.
5. Install the Lock Body
Position the main body of the lock (outer side) on the door and align it with the drilled holes. Next, place the inner side of the lock and secure both sides with the provided screws. Ensure that both sides are well-aligned and firmly secured.
6. Connect the Cables and Test the Power
Connect the power cables on the inner side of the lock and insert the batteries into the appropriate compartment. After installation, test the power by turning on the lock. The BT-100 Bio App has a battery level indicator in the AGL Home app, which facilitates monitoring of the charge.
7. Configuration and Testing of Access Methods
After the physical installation, it's time to configure the access methods:
Biometrics: Follow the manual instructions to register your fingerprints.
RFID Tag: Program the RFID tags as indicated in the manual.
Mechanical Key: Test the mechanical key to ensure it works properly as a backup.
8. Integration with the AGL Home App
Download the AGL Home app, available on Google Play and the App Store, and follow the instructions to pair the lock with the app. With the app, you can manage access, monitor battery level, and set temporary passwords for visitors.
9. Complete Lock Test
With everything installed and configured, conduct a complete test of the lock:
Check if the biometrics are working correctly.
Test the opening with the RFID tag.
Ensure that the mechanical key also works.
Check if the app is correctly displaying the status of the lock and the battery level.
10. Maintenance and Care
To ensure the durability of the BT-100 Bio App, keep the lock clean and avoid using abrasive chemical products. Regularly check the battery level through the app and replace the batteries as needed.
