Best fit depends on how you manage rentals. Built-in WiFi Fingerprint Smart Door Lock offers the clearest setup for remote code management because Wi-Fi is built in and no gateway is required. ULTRALOQ Bolt SE Wi-Fi Smart Lock suits owners wanting high code capacity, web access, and Matter support, but Matter remote access needs a compatible Matter over Thread hub. Lower-cost Sifely locks work for code-based entry, though several need an optional gateway for remote control.
Supplied ratings show 4.1/5 to 4.8/5, but each listing reports 0 reviews, so ratings provide limited decision evidence.

What rental hosts should prioritize
- Time-limited codes: Guests, cleaners, and contractors need separate access periods.
- Remote management: Built-in Wi-Fi avoids buying a separate gateway. Bluetooth-only control works locally unless paired with compatible remote hardware.
- Code capacity: More stored codes help owners managing multiple users or frequent turnover.
- Activity records: Logs help identify access events, but supplied data does not specify retention periods or export options.
- Backup entry: Physical keys, emergency power, or alternate unlock methods reduce lockout risk.
- Door fit: Confirm thickness, backset, handle layout, and deadbolt compatibility before purchase.
Best options for rental property access codes
Built-in WiFi Fingerprint Smart Door Lock
This is strongest match for owners needing remote access without an extra gateway. Its app supports remote lock control, status checks, alerts, eKeys, and one-time or time-limited codes. It stores up to 200 codes and 100 fingerprints, and includes a manager portal for multiple doors.
Tradeoffs: listed battery life reaches up to 6 months, shorter than several alternatives. Type-C emergency power helps when batteries run low. It fits 1-3/8" to 2-1/4" doors with 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" backset, but exact door compatibility still needs checking.
Price: $94.99. Listed rating: 4.5/5 from 0 reviews.
ULTRALOQ Bolt SE Wi-Fi Smart Lock
ULTRALOQ offers up to 50 access codes, scheduled or temporary passcodes, eKeys, activity history, and web portal access. Built-in 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi supports remote management without a hub. Router placement matters; supplied specifications recommend keeping router distance within 70 ft.
Matter over Thread adds another remote-management path, but requires a compatible Matter over Thread hub or Thread Border Router. Battery life is listed up to 18 months. Door sensor is not included. The lock supports fingerprint, passcode, app, voice, and mechanical-key entry.
Price: $89.99. Listed rating: 4.8/5 from 0 reviews.
Fingerprint Smart Door Lock with Handle & Keypad
This Sifely model supports app or web code creation, access logs, fingerprint entry, keypad entry, FOB, and physical key entry. Bluetooth control works locally. Remote access requires the optional Sifely WiFi Gateway. That added hardware changes total cost and setup complexity.
It fits most standard doors without extra drilling according to supplied product information, and its reversible handle supports left- and right-handed doors. Code capacity is not specified, so owners with many recurring users should confirm capacity before purchase.
Price: $84.99. Listed rating: 4.5/5 from 0 reviews.
Fingerprint Smart Deadbolt with Keypad
This lower-cost Sifely deadbolt stores 100+ fingerprints and 100+ codes. It supports scheduled codes, eKeys, logs, auto-lock, anti-peep codes, privacy mode, passage mode, fingerprint, keypad, app, FOB, and physical-key entry.
Remote control requires the Sifely Gateway, sold separately. Choose it when code capacity matters more than built-in remote connectivity. Supplied data does not identify exact door dimensions, so verify fit before ordering.
Price: $79.99. Listed ratings: 4.5/5 or 4.4/5 for two supplied product records with the same short name. Both report 0 reviews.
Wyze Auto-Lock Bolt v2, Fingerprint Keyless Entry

Supplied information does not specify code capacity or time-limited code controls. Confirm those details before choosing it for frequent guest turnover.
Price: $79.00. Listed rating: 4.1/5 from 0 reviews.
Options needing more setup consideration
Fingerprint Smart Door Lock with Handle & Keypad uses Bluetooth for local management. Alexa and Google compatibility, plus remote access, require the Sifely WiFi Gateway. It offers fingerprint, code, app, FOB, and key entry, but supplied data does not specify code capacity. Price: $79.99. Listed rating: 4.3/5 from 0 reviews.
Fingerprint Smart Deadbolt with Keypad at $79.99 has the same supplied feature profile as another Sifely deadbolt record, including 100+ codes and gateway-dependent remote access. Compare exact listing details before treating records as different hardware. Listed rating: 4.4/5 from 0 reviews.
Built-in Wi-Fi versus gateway-required access
| Setup | Best use | Main tradeoff |
|---|---|---|
| Built-in Wi-Fi | Remote code changes and lock status without extra gateway | Needs stable Wi-Fi and may use more battery |
| Bluetooth only | Local owner or guest access near door | Remote management needs compatible gateway |
| Matter over Thread | Owners with compatible smart-home hub | Requires Matter over Thread hub or Thread Border Router |
Rental purchase checklist
- Measure door thickness, backset, and existing lock layout.
- Decide whether remote management is required between guest stays.
- Calculate gateway cost for Bluetooth models.
- Confirm one-time, scheduled, or time-limited code support.
- Check code capacity against guest, cleaner, maintenance, and owner users.
- Confirm activity-log details, battery alerts, and backup entry method.
- Plan battery checks between stays; listed battery-life figures are manufacturer claims, not verified measurements.
Bottom line
Choose Built-in WiFi Fingerprint Smart Door Lock when remote rental access and large code capacity matter most. Choose ULTRALOQ Bolt SE Wi-Fi Smart Lock for 50-code capacity, web access, and longer listed battery life, while verifying Matter hub needs. Choose a Sifely gateway-required model when its door format and code capacity fit your property and optional gateway cost is acceptable. Choose Wyze when built-in Wi-Fi, emergency USB-C power, and backup entry matter more than confirmed code-management details.
Frequently asked questions
Which listed lock avoids a separate gateway?
Built-in WiFi Fingerprint Smart Door Lock, ULTRALOQ Bolt SE Wi-Fi Smart Lock, and Wyze Auto-Lock Bolt v2 list built-in Wi-Fi. ULTRALOQ Matter remote access still requires a compatible Matter over Thread hub.
Which lock stores the most access codes?
Built-in WiFi Fingerprint Smart Door Lock lists capacity for 200 codes. ULTRALOQ lists up to 50. Two Sifely deadbolt records list 100+ codes.
Is a smart key lock box equivalent to a smart lock?
No. A key lock box controls access to stored physical keys; it does not replace a door deadbolt or handle lock. Treat it as a separate access method.
