What is it?

Introducing the ESP-12F WiFi-Enabled Remote Door/Cabinet Lock Assembly and Development Board - Elevate Your Security with Wireless Control! This innovative breakout board features an integrated ESP-12F chip for seamless smartphone-controlled lock management.

This board features an integrated genuine FTDI IC for USB programming and Arduino IDE support through ESP8266 cores. Programming / Flashing mode can be set by holding onto the onboard "Flash" button during power-up.

By toggling GPIO5 on the ESP-12F, you can effortlessly retract or extend the metal lock latch, securely locking and unlocking it. Watch the demo video below for a demonstration. In the demo, a smartphone is linked to the ESP-12F's web server. Toggling the lock is as simple as pressing a button within the web interface. The lock can also be powered through the USB connection.

Additionally, this board incorporates a voltage step-up regulator, which boosts the 5V USB input to the necessary 12V required for operating the lock mechanism.

Potential Use Cases with Wireless Remote Connection:

• Smart Home Security: Integrate your locks into your home automation system. Lock or unlock doors and cabinets remotely, and receive alerts when access is detected.
