installation is easy, very secure lock.Highly recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this particular lock in the aged bronze tone. So far we have luck very happy with the one we installed about three weeks ago and then the one we installed a week or so thereafter. Initially, our Locksmith was a bit intimidated by the prospective installing an electron Locke, but his trepidation was quickly remedied once he saw how well designed this particular lock was. We found it a priest set up, we paired it easily with our existing Wi-Fi and connected her across three different iOS accounts effortlessly. That includes some people who are not even remotely tech savvy. We have also found it very easy to use with just a door code, which is great for our younger family members from homophone is not the ideal mechanism to control the lock. It is very helpful to know whether you have inadvertently left the door unlocked after you leave the house and whether it is enabled when you’re on your way home.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been extremely impressed with the Schlage Encode Plus smart lock. The installation was straightforward, and the build quality is immediately noticeable—it feels solid, secure, and well-engineered.
What really stands out is the seamless connectivity. The built-in WiFi means no additional hub is required, and I’ve had consistent, reliable performance when locking and unlocking remotely. The integration with Apple Home (including Home Key support) is a game changer—being able to unlock the door with my phone or watch is incredibly convenient.
The keypad is responsive and easy to use, which is great for guests or family members who don’t use the app. I also appreciate the ability to create and manage multiple access codes, making it simple to control who can enter and when.
From a security standpoint, this lock gives me confidence. The alerts, activity tracking, and auto-lock features provide peace of mind whether I’m at home or away.
Overall, this is a premium smart lock that delivers on both convenience and security. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their home access with a reliable, modern solution.
