Review: Assa Abloy 6600-98 Biometric Fingerprint Keyless Door Lock

Bottom Line

The Assa Abloy 6600-98 biometric fingerprint lock is easy to install and it’s fast in detecting fingerprints, but it’s made with cheap components that do not last a long time. Also, the fingerprint recognition system is not reliable and it takes several tries to open the lock. I recommend the Samsung SHS-P718 LBK/LMK lock instead.
