Home Security doesn't have to empty your back account, especially this time of year. Black Friday is essentially here and there are deals on tech, holiday gifts and even security items. In fact, CNET's favorite smart home locks are now a massive 30% off thanks to August's sitewide Black Friday sale. To secure your savings, make sure you use the coupon code BLACKFRIDAY30 at checkout.

This deal is around through Black Friday weekend, but there's a good chance these could sell out. As such, I suggest acting fast.

Save 30% at August

August is having a sitewide sale, and their prices even beat Amazon's right now. The August Home Wi-Fi Smart Lock comes with a smart keypad and is on sale for $140 in matte black and silver, saving you $60. Our editor's favorite doesn't have a keypad, but you can still control the lock using the August mobile app or keys. The locks can also be voice-controlled using Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. They can be installed in about 10 minutes and work on most doors to give your existing locks a smart home upgrade. 

The budget-friendly Yale smart lock with a Wi-Fi keypad is down to just $91, saving you $39 when you add the promo code. August is also selling hardware knobs starting at $14, down from $20. These match August's smart locks and come in a variety of colors.

August's wow factor is its auto-lock feature, which automatically locks the door after a set amount of time. If you have family visiting, you can temporarily share lock access from the app without needing to copy or hide keys. August's Black Friday sale has other options and bundles, all of which can be had for 30% off with the coupon code BLACKFRIDAY30.
