Yeeuu takes a smart health connected approach to key boxes

The Yeeuu K1 Smart Lock Box offers an alternative to replacing your good old lock with a smart health connected lock.

Like other smart health connected locks, the Yeeuu K1 Smart Lock Box allows homeowners to grant temporary access to their homes for certain people. Except that instead of being a real lock, it is a key box that contains a duplicate of the key of the conventional door lock. By using an iOS / Android application smart health connected to the Internet, the owner can allow other people to unlock the box in order to obtain this key. It happens in different ways.

First, it can grant immediate and unique access remotely, which lasts only five minutes. This is useful in situations such as the arrival of a cleaning service while the owner is at work.

On the other hand, in cases such as the rental of Airbnb, a calendar function of the application can be used to grant longer-term access; over a period of several days or more. It is also possible to program a permanent (but changeable) access code. This allows multiple family members to unlock the case permanently.

Like most smart locks, Yeeuu's K1 Smart Lock Box unlocks when it detects the unique Bluetooth signal from a guest's phone; if he's using the app. But also when the access code is entered on the backlit keyboard of the box. In addition, an integrated fingerprint scanner can store the fingerprints of up to 50 people. This allows you to unlock the box with a simple touch.

The Yeeuu K1 Smart Lock Box can either be screwed directly to an exterior wall. It can also be hung on a door handle using an optional shackle. It is powered by three AAA batteries. This should be enough for at least a year of use; at the rate of 10 unlocking cycles per day. The app and a light on the device itself warn users when the batteries are low.

If you're interested, the K1 Smart Lock box is currently the subject of an Indiegogo campaign. Pre-orders start at $ 49.
