The Nokē Bluetooth enabled padlock lets you ditch both keys and combinations in favor of your magical touch. Ok, you’re not really magic. The Nokē lock looks for a Bluetooth connection to your phone and the Nokē app and automatically opens the lock when you click it.

You don’t even have to take your phone out of your pocket, launch the app or click an unlock button. As long as there’s a connection between your phone and the lock, it will open. The way it works is almost identical to the Kevo smart deadbolt lock that I reviewed last year.

The lock is made of steel, is waterproof, and runs on a battery that should last about a year before needing a replacement.

The Nokē can even be used with an optional Bluetooth key fob for people who don’t use a smartphone.

You can read more about the Nokē padlock on their website or buy one for $56.99 through Amazon.
