High quality lock

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The setup is very easy and I can control it through my phone and customer code. The outlook is also attractive and fit perfectly with my new door.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing lock. WiFi connected and allows for piece of mind since you can lock or unlock with your phone. We love the feature to be able to create temporary keys for our guests since we host a bit of events at our place.

Schlage Encode Plus Smart WiFi Deadbolt
on April 2, 2026
Posted by: KKenui
from Tulsa, OK
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the Schlage Encode Plus because it was advertised to work with Bluetooth and proximity unlocking. While the lock excels in physical build and setup, the smart features—specifically the hands-free entry—have not lived up to the marketing.
The Good: Design & Installation
* Installation: This is easily one of the most user-friendly locks to install. The instructions are clear, the parts fit perfectly, and I had it mounted and powered up in no time.
* Aesthetics: It is a sharp-looking piece of hardware. It feels premium, looks great on the door, and has a sleek, modern profile.
The Bad: Proximity & Android Support
* Proximity Unlocking: Despite following the setup instructions to the letter, the Bluetooth/proximity unlocking simply does not work. I expected a seamless "walk-up" experience, but the lock fails to recognize my presence or unlock automatically.
* Android Integration: I’m also disappointed in the lack of robust features for the Android ecosystem. Greater Android support and more tailored features for non-iOS users would go a long way in making this a truly universal smart lock.
Final Verdict
If you are looking for a sturdy, attractive, and easy-to-install smart lock for manual or keypad use, this is a solid choice. However, if you are buying it specifically for proximity unlocking or expect a feature-rich experience on Android, you may be disappointed. It’s a great piece of hardware that is currently held back by its software limitations.
> Pros: Sleek design, incredibly easy installation, solid build quality.
> Cons: Proximity/Bluetooth unlocking is non-functional; limited Android feature set.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second smart lock we’ve bought. They both work well. Easy to install and the app works great.
