LAVNA's 8-way premium smart door lock is one of the few Indian-market locks offering face recognition alongside fingerprint, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RFID, PIN, app, and manual key access. The built-in camera and screen enable face ID unlocking for hands-free entry, while the 5-bolt mechanism provides physical security that matches commercial-grade locks.
Maximum versatility at a competitive price.

The verdict, who it fits, and where to think twice — before you scroll the deep review.
Our Verdict
At Rs 12,000-16,000 with 8 unlock methods, face recognition, 5-bolt security, Wi-Fi remote access, and free installation with a 3-year warranty, this lock packs more features per rupee than almost any competitor.
The complexity of managing 8 access methods, camera maintenance in dusty conditions, and higher battery drain are trade-offs worth considering before purchase.
Best For
Feature-loving homeowners who want every possible unlock method including face recognition in a single device, especially those interested in hands-free entry when carrying bags or groceries.
Watch Outs
Users who prefer simplicity and minimal setup, or those concerned about face recognition reliability in varying Indian lighting conditions and dusty outdoor environments.

Editor's Take
The LAVNA 8-Way Premium is for the feature-loving homeowner who wants every possible unlocking method in a single device. At Rs 12,000-16,000, you get face recognition, which is the most futuristic access method available in consumer smart locks.
