Hi everyone,

After a bit of research I decided an August Smart lock combined with a smart keypad was they way to go with our front door.

So far, so good. They ship to New Zealand (although the warranty isn't covered). 

I had no problem fitting the lock and getting it working. It is working like a champ.

During considerations I thought about what would happen if I ended up outside the house without my phone. Luckily the lock can be paired with their smart keypad. No problems so far. I purchased one of those. 

Here is the problem. The keypad will not pair with the lock in New Zealand. I get a 403 Access denied popup in the app which has something to do with connections to the August servers in the US. I am still in dialog with them about whether we can get the keypad working.

Although the lock is working great it really needs the keypad to work as I intended. Has anyone outside the US managed to get a keypad working?

Cheers, Matt.
