August Locks

Guide for using August locks with Seam

Overview

August produces smart locks for the residential market. Seam integrates directly with the August Wi-Fi Smart Lock, as well as with additional August Smart Locks through the August Connect® Wi-Fi Bridge. In addition, Seam supports the August Smart Keypad accessory.

Each August lock attaches to an existing deadbolt, replacing only the lock component on the inside of a door. Consequently, August locks do not change the exterior of locks, and the existing physical keys still work with installed August locks.


Supported Devices

This integration supports all August Smart Lock models that are connected to Wi-Fi, either through built-in Wi-Fi or using the August Connect Wi-Fi Bridge. Seam also supports the addition of the optional August Smart Keypad to enable entering access codes to control the lock.
