LAVNA 8-Way Premium Smart Door Lock Review
LAVNA's 8-way premium 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 while the 5-bolt mechanism provides physical security that matches commercial-grade locks.
Our Verdict
At around Rs 12,000-16,000 with 8 unlock methods, face recognition, 5-bolt security, 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 and camera maintenance are trade-offs worth considering.
Best For
Feature-loving homeowners who want every possible unlock method in one device, especially those interested in face recognition for hands-free entry.
Consider Alternatives If
Users who prefer simplicity and minimal setup, or those concerned about the reliability of face recognition in varying Indian lighting conditions.
