Secure Your Homes this Summer with the Worry-Free Philips Gate Lock


As summer season hits its peak in the Philippines, you and your family are likely to be making plans for your out-of-town, multiple-day excursion. As you map out your schedules, itineraries, and assignments, don’t forget that home security is an essential part of vacation planning, especially when you intend to stay away for more than a day, because the last thing you want is to worry about something back home.


You can employ the traditional security methods such as padlocks or rely on a caretaker to keep an eye on things. However, while these common methods are easily set up, you can still be anxious about the potential of losing keys or an errant home caretaker.


Untroubled on Travel

For a worry-free vacation, you can take the matter of your home security into your own hands the smart way by layering your security. With its automated and secure access control, a Philips Smart Lock is a modern home security solution you can rely on even when you and your family are hundreds of miles away.


The Philips DDL505-5HBS smart lock is specifically intended for outdoor use and built to withstand daily exposure to the harsh elements, making it ideal to secure your gate. Featuring IP66 protection rating, this smart gate lock has been tested to endure extreme weather conditions and temperatures ranging from -25 to 70°C for 5 hours under the sun. The sturdy housing can also resist dust and rain from seeping into the unit, offering reliable, all-weather protection for your home. Even under harsh outdoor conditions, this durable smart lock will provide continuous, reliable performance and lasting durability to keep your home protected at all times.


For trusted caretakers, visitors, or other family members who need to access your home in your absence, the Philips DDL505-5HBS allows you to remotely allow them in through a range of customized, temporary PIN codes. You can conveniently share one-time codes valid for 6 hours, recurring codes, or time-limited codes for secure access for your guests.


Once the guest has entered, a hall sensor automatically locks the door once it closes. Meanwhile, the deadbolt pops up instantly, providing you with peace of mind as your visitor leaves.


PIN Options for Remote Access

To keep you informed about your home situation while you are on vacation, you can check it through the matching Home Access App, which connects to the network through a gateway. Install this app on your smartphone to easily review lock operation records, doorbell notifications, and entry logs anytime. The app will also notify you of any anomaly happening at your doorstep, enabling you to monitor your home from a distance.


Ready to load your baggage, start the car, and hit the beach or the mountain resort? Upgrade your home security with a Philips DDL505-5HBS smart lock on your gate and experience anxiety-free vacations for many years to come.
