[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wouldn’t be able to install by myself so my daughter and I were doing it together. The drawing on the installation paper should be bigger and more detailed. As a standalone front-door lock: 6/10 As the lower lock under a real deadbolt: 8.5/10 For convenience/ease of daily use: 9/10 For long-term security by itself: not enough on its own for me It’s one of the better “simple keypad” designs. This is a big plus - it’s not trying to be a fancy smart lock. No WiFi, no app, no cloud account, no notifications. That means less complexity and fewer things to go wrong compared with the smart lock that I just replaced it with. This is my second Schlage lock (the first one I used in my other home). This lock uses physical silicone coated buttons, which I prefer over touchscreens. I can have 19 user codes, it has backlit keypad. Schlage has a pretty good reputation for a residential keypad lever. It’s old-school, not flashy, but dependable. It’s fairly resilient / more reliable than the smart ones.
I never had any issues with my first Schlage lock that is why I bought the same again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought one of those box store brands and a year and a 1/2 later had to replace it. So this time, I'm buying a more durable lock that is made for the long haul.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second time around since the wiring frayed and too small for me to splice. I like the ease of use, very handy by all of my family compared to a keyed device no doubt. However my main complaint is routing the wiring once to avoid kinks that lead to fraying after changing out the battery several times. The instructions for routing is unclear and after shoving it in I’m left with an unsure feeling that the wiring is secure.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It installs well if you just pay attention to instructions You won't be trying to hold up both sides of the lock just to install it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to install and the digital keypad works well but I cannot get the key to work in the mechanism.
