Samsung SHP-DP728 door lock review
I had a Samsung SHP-DP728 smart door lock installed in 2021. Big regret! Problem below.
Samsung DP728 Cons
This is a noisy lock. Opening and closing the door made beeping noises and click-clack sounds. This is BAD when you have a sleeping baby at home. It always woke the baby up.
Lock kept beeping asking for new batteries.
Decided to change out to the Samsung SHP-DR708 door lock instead.
Asked around and it costs S$120 - $190 to install a smart door lock!

Why Samsung SHP-DP728 keeps beeping
Official Samsung vendor Hanman International said it's a motherboard issue and said it's due to door slamming.
Basically they want you to buy a new one 😡
Hope this helps you change out your mortise locks on your own! Let me know if it worked for you.
