Introduction
Renters want smart lock convenience but are often prohibited from modifying their doors. FEOCEY’s no-drilling interior lock changes this equation entirely.
The Renter’s Dilemma
A 2024 survey of 3,200 US apartment renters found: 67% would install a smart lock if allowed without modifications; only 12% of rental properties currently allow smart lock installation; 41% reported a lockout in the past 2 years averaging $185 per incident; 78% would pay more for a rental that included a smart lock.
FEOCEY’s No-Drilling Solution
The FEOCEY interior smart lock mount attaches directly to your existing interior thumb turn. No drilling, no permanent modifications.
- Place the mounting plate over the thumb turn
- Adjust width to match thumb turn dimensions
- Turn the adjustment knob to secure firmly
- Attach the smart lock body
- Insert batteries and connect to app
What You Get
App-controlled lock/unlock from anywhere, custom keypad codes, virtual password protection, remote unlock for visitors, and full activity log.
What You Do Not Get
The exterior of your door remains key-only for visitors. The interior mount does not support fingerprint module.
Moving Out: Zero Evidence
The no-drilling design removes in under 60 seconds with no damage, no holes – eliminating security deposit disputes.
