Does anyone know if it’s possible to install and use a Wyze Lock in the horizontal position? My door has a security bolt only a few inches above the deadbolt knob so there isn’t enough clearance to install the Wyze Lock in the normal vertical position. It would fit perfectly on my door if I could re-orient the lock 90 degrees to the left (counter clockwise).

Is this possible?

No, I don’t think this would be possible with out some engineering.
