How to activate your Bold Smart Lock with the Bold app?

Opening your Bold Smart Lock is quick and effortless with the Bold app. Whether you're nearby or using Bold Connect remotely, just follow these simple steps.

Open your lock using the Bold app

Congratulations on installing your Bold Smart Lock! Here's how you can easily open your door:

  1. Open the Bold app and navigate to the main screen.
    The app will automatically show the lock that is closest to you.

  2. Activate the lock.
    Tap the black (or white in dark mode) activation button.
    A green timer will circle around the button, confirming the lock is now activated.
    You can now manually turn the outer knob to open your door.

Opening your lock remotely with Bold Connect

Do you have a Bold Connect? Great—this allows you to activate your lock remotely:

  • The activation button will always be available, even when you are outside Bluetooth range.

  • A pop-up will appear asking you to confirm your remote activation.

More activation control

By holding the activation button for a few seconds, a menu opens in which you can choose whether to activate it “Direct” or “With Connect.” Normally, the first available option will be selected automatically. This menu also shows the “keep active” function for Bold Pro users, which allows the lock to be set to active for a longer period of time.
