[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time using it and working great. I just wish it had the automatic lock as soon as you close the door, like some other out there
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took us under 5 minutes to replace our existing lock with this beauty. Took another 5 to get the product set up online. Able to provide access to up to 100 people. Has a nifty alarm system and provides an awesome level of security.

Love Schlage Smart Locks But myt 2 New Encode Wifi

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Own 5 schlage smart locks but these 2 new Encode Wifi locks are problematic.. they won't stay connected to internet. Alos when I change the setting within the app (even with bluetooth connection) the setting do not save within the locks.. I cannot even use my programed codes for entry. I did a hard reset and still have major problems. Some may say user error but I argue that considering i own 3 other locks Schlage Sense all connected to wifi via schlage wifi box and are set up with google voice control, multiple users and with timed entry. idk if I just got 2 bad locks but I have to put these Encode locks in the "wont recommend" category as I have been only able to access my home using regular keys as I can't even get my programmed codes to work even after a hard reset of the locks..
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this lock for several years. Installation was fairly easy, although it would be helpful to have a chisel or router to properly countersink the striker plate.
Settling up the lock once installed was easy, the app walks you through everything. Standard alkaline batteries last 4-6 months depending on usage; rechargeable batteries are hit and miss, so stick with alkaline.
The biggest issue I have is that sometimes when batteries are low, the lock stops functioning altogether and needs to be completely reset. I have replaced the batteries five times since I got it, and twice, everything was fine, the app reconnected once new batteries were installed. The other three times I had to factory reset the lock and reconnect it to the app, which required me to set up all my family codes again. It’s a relatively easy process but still pretty annoying.
