The Smart PIERRE home system integrates motorized door locks to provide advanced remote-controlled access management, ensuring both security and convenience.
- Motorized Door Lock Integration: Connected to the PIERRE controller, these locks can be operated through the Smart PIERRE application.
- Various Control Triggers: Users can open or close doors using triggers such as a push button (taster), RFID reader, or automated schedules, ensuring only authorized individuals can unlock the doors.
- Installation and Connection: The integration process involves physically installing the lock on the door or gate and connecting it to the PIERRE controller via a wired connection.
- Flexible Control Methods: Control methods such as a taster, RFID reader, or mobile app can be assigned, providing ease of use and flexibility in managing access.
- Automation and Convenience: Motorized locks can be programmed to follow specific routines, such as locking automatically at night or unlocking upon arrival, allowing for remote control and automation through the Smart PIERRE app. This enhances the smart home experience by seamlessly integrating into daily life.

What color mean what on Controller LED?
Green – Online:
The controller is online and connected to the network, functioning as expected.
Red – Offline:
The controller is offline, indicating a disconnection from the network or that there is no internet access.
Light Blue – AP Mode:
The controller is in Access Point (AP) Mode, meaning it is broadcasting its own network, allowing devices to connect directly to the controller for setup or configuration.
Dark Blue – AP Mode with Pierre Partner:
The controller is in AP Mode, and it is actively being managed through the Pierre Partner system. This mode is used for more advanced setup or partner-level configuration.
Purple – Searching for IP Address:
The controller is attempting to obtain an IP address from the router or network. It is searching for an internet connection.
Orange – Firmware Update:
The controller is in the process of downloading a firmware update, ensuring that the system stays up-to-date with the latest software and features.
These LED color indicators provide essential information about the controller’s current status, making it easy to monitor its connection, operation mode, and maintenance activities.
Has the device been added to the configuration?
If not: Add it in the PIERRE Partner application.
Is the door properly connected to the GND and one of PIERRE's output?
If not: Connect it correctly according to the diagram.
To rule out the lock or wire malfunction, you can remove the wire connected from the lock to the PIERRE's output and touch it to the 12V. If the lock clicks, it means everything is working after the PIERRE. Alternatively, try moving the PIERRE to another available output (also change the pin in the Partner app accordingly).
What happens if there is a power outage?
If the power goes out, smart devices will retain their last state and resume functionality when power is restored. For critical devices, battery backups can be used to maintain operation during an outage.
How strong is the electric strike for locks?
Each electric strike has a specified strength limit, which can be found in the product details.
Should the lock be connected to the intercom or PIERRE system?
This depends on the setup. The lock can be connected to the PIERRE system, the intercom, or both if the intercom has additional unlocking features.
What happens if there’s a power outage?
Gate motors and locks can be backed up by battery power, allowing them to function during outages. Additionally, it's always recommended to have manual operation options.
