[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lock does not like salt air and does not like to stay connected to Internet. Save your money and the frustration
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had this lock on my last home and we loved so we purchased the newer model. Installation is pretty easy and now we can enter our home with keyless entry again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While this product is easy to install, The programming is quite problematic. This is my fourth and fifth encode lock, And it is still hard to program. Frankly it appears that it was programmed by an engineer who never actually gave it to a normal person to try to use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lock was easy to install and complete the programming as well as setting up with the Wi-Fi. I have this in several properties and enjoy the ease of being able to access everything remotely It also pairs with the Airbnb app to auto set codes for guests. I won't install anything else at this point. The only downfall is the black background is hard to see the numbers people often hit the (( )) which the lock grabs as a "5" I would recommend the lighter colored background.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The installation instructions were clear and concise. I was able to install without any issues. An opportunity for improvement would be to let you know where the programming code is at the last instruction step. ( it is on the back cover of the instructions)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently installed this touchscreen deadbolt on my front door, and overall, I’m very impressed with its performance, design, and convenience.
Installation: The setup was straightforward and well-documented. I’m moderately handy, and it took me about 30 minutes to install using basic tools. The instructions were clear, and everything needed was included in the box. If you’ve installed a regular deadbolt before, you’ll find this very manageable.
Design & Build: The sleek, modern look of the touchscreen blends well with my home’s exterior. The screen lights up quickly with a touch and is responsive even in cold or rainy weather. It’s a big upgrade over traditional keypads or keys.
Functionality: The touchscreen works flawlessly and supports multiple access codes, which is great for family and guests. I appreciate the auto-lock feature—no more wondering if I forgot to lock the door. The lock mechanism feels solid and reliable.
Smart Features (if applicable): I paired it with my smart home system, and it integrates smoothly. I can lock/unlock remotely, receive notifications, and check usage logs, which adds a lot of peace of mind when I’m away. Bottom Line: If you’re looking for a stylish, reliable, and feature-rich deadbolt, this is a great option. It adds convenience and peace of mind, and it’s a solid investment in home security.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dogs figured out how to open all outside doors in my home. The auto lock feature is literally a life saver! Now, the dogs aren’t able to open the doors because they lock themselves when anyone walks in our out. Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids would leave for school in the morning and forget to lock the door! I would be asleep because of the hours I work and would wake up to find the doors unlocked. The Schlage Encode Smart Lock was the solution to my problem!!! It is programmed to lock in 1 minute after the door is closed. Now I wake up and my doors are ALWAYS deadbolt locked! Thank you Schlage!!
