Installation
Method 1: Install with Screws
Before installation you will need:
![]()
- Confirm Installation Position
Tips: To avoid repeatedly changing positions after installation and causing damage to your wall, we suggest that you add Keypad on our app first to see whether you can control the Lock via Keypad at the chosen position. Make sure your Keypad is installed within 5 meters (16.4 ft) from your Lock.
Add Keypad following the instructions on the app. After adding successfully, find a suitable position on the wall, attach SwitchBot Keypad to the chosen position with your hands, then check if you can lock and unlock SwitchBot Lock smoothly when using Keypad. If everything works correctly, place the alignment sticker to the position chosen and mark holes for screws using a pencil.

- Determine Drill Bit Size and Drill Holes
Tips: For outdoor usage, we recommend that you install with screws to prevent SwitchBot Keypad being moved without your permission. Concrete or other hard surfaces can be challenging for drilling. If you are not experienced with drilling into a particular type of wall, you may want to consider consulting a professional.
Prepare a suitably sized electric drill bit before drilling. - When installing on more rugged surfaces like concrete or brick: Use an electric drill with the 6 mm (15/64") sized drill bit to drill holes at the marked positions, then use the rubber hammer to hammer the expansion bolts into the wall.
- When installing on surfaces like wood or plaster: Use an electric drill with the 2.8 mm (7/64") sized drill bit to drill holes at the marked positions.

- Attach Mounting Plate to the Wall
Tips: If the wall surface is uneven, you may need to place two rubber rings at the two screw holes at the back of the mounting plate. Affix mounting plate to the wall using screws. Make sure the mounting plate is firmly attached, there should be no excess movement when you press either side.
![SwitchBot - Keypad - Install with Screws - Step 2 Install with Screws - Step 2]()
- Attach Keypad to Mounting Plate
Align the two metal round buttons at the back of your Keypad with the two round locating holes at the bottom of mounting plate. Then press and slide your Keypad downwards with pressure along the mounting plate. You will hear a click when it is firmly attached. Then press your Keypad from different angles using your hands to make sure it is stable.

If you've run into problems when attaching your Keypad to the mounting plate, please refer to the following solutions to solve the problem:
- Check if the battery cover is properly clicked into place. The battery cover should cover the battery box perfectly and form a flat surface with its surrounding case parts. Then try attaching your Keypad to the mounting plate again.
- Check if the installation surface is uneven. An uneven surface may cause the mounting plate to be too closely mounted to the wall. If so, you may need to place two rubber rings at the screw holes at the back of the mounting plate to ensure there is a certain distance between the mounting plate and the wall surface.

Method 2: Install with Adhesive Tape
- Confirm Installation Position
Tips: - To avoid repeatedly changing positions after installation and causing damage to your wall, we suggest that you add Keypad on our app first to see whether you can control the Lock via Keypad at the chosen position. Make sure your Keypad is installed within 5 meters (16.4 ft) from your Lock.
- 3M adhesive tape can only attach firmly to smooth surfaces like glass, ceramic tile and smooth door surface. Please clean the installation surface first before installation. (We recommend you install with screws to prevent your Keypad being removed.)
Add your Keypad following the instructions on our app. After adding successfully, find a suitable position on the wall, attach your Keypad to the position with your hands, then check if you can lock and unlock SwitchBot Lock smoothly using Keypad. If so, use pencil to mark the position.
![SwitchBot - Keypad - Install with Adhesive Tape - Step 1 Install with Adhesive Tape - Step 1]()
- Attach Mounting Plate to the Wall
Tips: Make sure the installation surface is smooth and clean. Make sure the temperature of the adhesive tape and installation surface is higher than OOC, otherwise the tape adhesion may decline. Attach adhesive tape to the back of mounting plate, then stick the mounting plate to the wall at the marked position. Press the mounting plate against the wall for 2 minutes to ensure it is firm.

To prevent situations like this, please avoid entering digits that may compose an emergency passcode you've set.
- Anti-peep technology: You can add random digits before and after the correct passcode to unlock so people around you won't know what your real passcode is. You can enter up to 20 digits to include the real passcode.

Another failed attempt will disable your Keypad for 5 minutes and the disabled time will increase by double with following attempts.
