That's great to hear! It sounds like you have successfully set up a system to control a door lock through your IOBroker using an Arduino UNO, Bluetooth BLE adapter, Remotexy, MQTT, and LAN. This system allows for secure and convenient access to the door for all family members with a mobile device. My system was installed by emergency locksmith nw1 because I couldn't do it all by myself.

It is a lock which normally works with a remote control. I soldered wires to the keyboard contacts of the remote control to simulate the keypress with a relay. The relay is actuated by the Arduino. For safety, I have a second remote control that I can use when e.g. the battery of the phone is empty.

Remotexy, MQTT and LAN with an Arduino UNO works great!

Great !

But what if their cell-phone battery is empty ....

I would back it up with a physical keypad on the fixed hardware ....
