Claim 16:
17. A non-transitory computer storage medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
receiving status data from a smart lock device that has a power connection and is mounted to a door, wherein the status data includes data indicating a power level of the smart lock device and whether the door is opened or closed;
in response to receiving the status data from the smart lock device, comparing the power level of the smart lock device to a threshold power level;
in response to comparing the power level of the smart lock device to the threshold power level, determining that the power level of the smart lock device does not satisfy the threshold power level; and
in response to determining that the power level of the smart lock device does not satisfy the threshold power level, transmitting an instruction to a connected door hinge to cause a telescopic rod, that extends across a first plate connected to a door frame and is connected to a second plate connected to the door, to contract to close the door to allow the smart lock device to charge.
