Veise VE017 Fingerprint Smart Door Lock review

Veise VE017 Fingerprint Smart Door Lock with App Control, Matte Black

Veise VE017 Fingerprint Smart Door Lock

The Veise VE017 is worth considering if you want fingerprint, keypad and app-based entry, but remote locking and unlocking require a separately sold gateway. The listing also claims app-managed access and an approximately 12-month battery life; those claims aren’t independent test results, and batteries aren’t included.

  • The lock is specified for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches thick and lock holes 1-1/2 or 2-1/8 inches in diameter.
  • Remote locking and unlocking require the separately sold Veise G1 gateway.
  • The lock uses four AA/LR6 alkaline batteries, which aren’t included; the listing says they last about 12 months, depending on use.
  • The package includes two keys and two IC cards, but no handle.

Details from the Amazon product listing, checked November 7, 2026.

Quick verdict

Consider the Veise VE017 if you want several listed entry methods, app-based user management, and if your door matches the stated thickness and hole dimensions. Skip it if you need remote access without an additional gateway, a package that includes a handle or batteries, or published storage limits and backset dimensions. The listing’s performance figures remain unverified.

Before you buy

  • Check your door thickness and lock-hole diameter against the stated compatibility figures; the listing doesn’t provide a backset measurement.
  • Budget for four AA/LR6 alkaline batteries and, if you want remote locking or unlocking, the separately sold G1 gateway.
  • Don’t assume a maximum fingerprint, profile or simultaneous code capacity: the available listing doesn’t publish those limits.
  • Treat the fingerprint speed, accuracy and battery duration as listing claims rather than independently verified results.

What we like

  • Offers fingerprint, app, card, code and mechanical-key access options, plus configurable auto-lock.
  • The app is described as supporting permission changes, fingerprint management and access logs.
  • Includes two keys and two IC cards in the stated package contents.
  • The listing describes anti-peeping codes, intrusion alerts, temporary lockouts and Away Mode.

Worth checking

  • Remote locking and unlocking require a separately sold Veise G1 gateway.
  • Four AA/LR6 alkaline batteries are required and aren’t included.
  • The package does not include a handle.
  • The available listing doesn’t publish maximum fingerprint or user-profile capacity, or a backset measurement.

What does the Veise VE017 offer, and how does its app work?

The Veise VE017 offers entry by fingerprint, app, authorized access, fob card, code, code sharing and mechanical key, with auto-lock as a configurable locking option. The listing says you can set auto-lock from 0 to 180 seconds in the app.

Through the KK Home app, the Veise VE017 is described as supporting remote user management: you can grant access, change permissions, pause access or delete it. The listing also says you can add, rename or delete fingerprints in the app, review activity logs and receive alerts for door events.

The Veise VE017 listing claims fingerprint access takes under 0.2 seconds with 99.99% accuracy. Those are manufacturer listing figures, not independently verified performance results; the available material doesn’t provide test data confirming them.

How many fingerprints, access codes, and user profiles can the VE017 store?

The available listing doesn’t publish a maximum number of stored fingerprints or user profiles for the Veise VE017. That leaves an important capacity question unanswered if you’re choosing a lock for a household, rental or shared property.

The listing describes app-based fingerprint management and says you can add, rename or delete fingerprints, but it doesn’t state how many can be present at once. The Veise VE017 listing also describes unlimited remote one-time codes and unlimited remote duration codes, along with permanent codes for family and recurring codes for regular visitors.

Those code types describe how access codes can be created and used; they don’t establish how many credentials the lock can store simultaneously. Before relying on the Veise VE017 for a high-turnover property or a large user group, you’ll need clarification from the manufacturer about maximum fingerprint, profile and code storage. The available listing gives no such figures.

What door thicknesses and backset measurements are compatible with the VE017?

The Veise VE017 is listed as fitting doors from 1-3/8 to 2 inches thick. The stated lock-hole diameters are 1-1/2 or 2-1/8 inches. The available listing does not give a backset measurement, so you can’t confirm that dimension from the supplied specifications.

Before ordering, compare your door’s thickness and lock-hole diameter with those figures, and seek the missing backset information if that measurement matters for your door. The Veise VE017 package includes a latch, strike and mounting plate, but no handle. That means the listing doesn’t describe a complete handle set.

Installation guidance says to keep the door leaf parallel and symmetrical to the frame so the latch lines up with and enters the strike-plate hole. That alignment instruction is relevant to fit: even a compatible set of stated dimensions won’t remove the need to check that the latch meets the strike correctly on your door.

Does the VE017 need a Wi-Fi gateway or subscription for remote access?

The Veise VE017 requires the Veise G1 gateway, sold separately, for remote locking and unlocking. Its connectivity listing identifies Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, with Wi-Fi requiring the G1 gateway. The distinction matters: the listing’s remote-access claims depend on extra hardware rather than the lock alone.

Without treating local Bluetooth as remote access, the available information supports Bluetooth connectivity but doesn’t specify its effective range. For app features, the listing describes user permissions and the ability to grant access, change permissions, pause access or delete it. It also describes fingerprint management, activity logs and event alerts.

The Veise VE017 listing doesn’t specify whether using the app or gateway requires a subscription. That point remains unknown from the supplied information. If remote control is central to your setup, factor in the gateway requirement and confirm any ongoing service terms before deciding.

How much does the VE017 cost, and what comes in the package?

Those are the listed prices provided here; they don’t establish what the lock may cost at another time.

The stated package contents are the fingerprint smart lock, screws, latch, strike, mounting plate, two keys, two IC cards, an installation manual and a user manual. The Veise VE017 does not include a handle, according to the included-components specification. Check your door hardware before purchase so you know whether you need to provide a handle separately.

The listing doesn’t state that batteries are included; its battery specification explicitly says the four AA/LR6 alkaline batteries are not included. So the listed price shouldn’t be read as covering batteries. The package description also doesn’t mention the G1 gateway, which is sold separately and required for remote locking and unlocking. If you want those remote functions, account for that additional hardware requirement.

How do you install the VE017 and set up fingerprints, passcodes, and the mobile app?

The Veise VE017 listing describes installation as a DIY job requiring only a screwdriver, and claims an installation time of 15 minutes. That time is a listing estimate, not a tested result, so allow for your own door and setup rather than treating it as guaranteed.

Installation instructions and video tutorials are listed as included. The guidance says to keep the door leaf parallel and symmetrical to the frame so the latch can align with and enter the strike-plate hole. The Veise VE017 listing also says the lock auto-detects left- or right-handed doors.

For setup, the listing describes using the app to add, rename or delete fingerprints and to manage user access. It also says the app can be used to grant access and change, pause or remove permissions. The available information doesn’t provide a complete step-by-step setup sequence for fingerprints, passcodes or app pairing, so use the supplied manual and tutorials for the actual procedure.

How is the VE017 powered, how long do its batteries last, and what happens if they run out?

The Veise VE017 runs on four AA/LR6 alkaline batteries, which aren’t included. The listing gives an approximate battery life of 12 months, while also warning that usage frequency can affect it. This is a manufacturer listing claim, not a lifespan we verified through testing.

The lock is specified to provide low-battery indicator-light alerts and a USB-C emergency port. The listing mentions the port as an emergency feature but doesn’t explain the exact procedure, what equipment is needed or how long emergency operation lasts. The Veise VE017 description also refers to a “safe mode,” but gives no further detail about how it behaves.

Because neither the battery-life estimate nor the emergency feature is accompanied by detailed operating instructions in the supplied information, check the product manual for the relevant procedures. Plan to supply the batteries yourself, and don’t assume the stated approximate duration will be the same for every usage pattern.

What security features and limitations does the VE017 have compared with other smart locks?

The Veise VE017 listing describes an anti-peeping code option that lets you enter extra numbers before or after the correct PIN. It also claims real-time intrusion alarms and temporary lockouts after unauthorized attempts. Away Mode is described as limiting access to master credentials, the app or physical keys.

The listing says access data, including records, credentials and fingerprints, is stored on the lock with local AES128 encryption. It also claims the lock meets BHMA/ANSI certification standards, but the supplied information doesn’t independently verify that claim. The Veise VE017 has practical dependencies: remote locking and unlocking require a separately sold G1 gateway, batteries aren’t included, and the package has no handle.

No competing smart-lock models are named in the supplied information, so a model-to-model comparison isn’t possible. The listing gives features and limitations for this lock, not comparable specifications for alternatives.

What should you do if the VE017 fingerprint reader, keypad, or app stops working?

If the Veise VE017 keypad doesn’t respond, the listing instructs you to touch it gently to wake it before entering a passcode. If the app can’t discover or connect to the lock, check that your phone is within effective Bluetooth range or try resetting the lock.

The available listing provides no specific troubleshooting steps for a fingerprint reader that stops working. It doesn’t describe a reader reset, a way to re-enrol a fingerprint or another remedy, so those details are unknown here. The Veise VE017 listing gives support hours: phone support is available Monday to Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM and Saturday from 7 AM to 3 PM PST; email support is available 24/7.

If basic keypad or app checks don’t resolve the problem, use the listed support channels for further guidance. The supplied information doesn’t establish that resetting the lock will fix every connection problem; it presents reset as something to try if discovery or connection fails.
