Troy Hunt describes a UniFi-based residential IoT door lock setup with fail-secure, local control and manual override

1 fonte(s) · 1 atualização(ões) · publicado 24/08/2026 01:19 · coletado há 1 dia

Troy Hunt's Weekly Update 518 covers his home door lock design built on Ubiquiti UniFi hardware. The design rests on four principles: mains power with no reliance on batteries, fail-secure behaviour so doors stay locked in a power outage, local control with no cloud latency, and a manual override for emergencies such as a fire. He plans to validate some edge cases, including the inability to keep a door both closed and unlocked and his assumptions about access methods. The laundry door will be the low-impact test before a wider rollout across the house. The article describes no vulnerability, incident or threat activity.
