[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have been using the previous version of Encode lock for the last 4+ years with zero issues and just upgraded to the latest Smart lock to get the Apple keys feature. The battery life is solid and I need to change batteries once in 12-16 months. Integration with Apple keys is rock solid and using phone/watch to unlock home is a game changer.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first smart lock purchase and install was an amazing experience with Schlage. As a new homeowner I’ll confess I’m not as handy as I’d like to be. I was a bit anxious about attempting the install of the Encode without adult supervision! Alas, even a middle aged kid like me could do it! No problems at all.
It’s not only an easy install but it’s really a high quality and solid product. I feel safe and so does my family. Planning on getting a second for our second door now.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think my favorite part of this lock is it linked to Airbnb so when I have new guests, it automatically set the customized key code for each guest uniquely!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had this lock in one house and loved it. Moved to another house and tried a different lock (August) that was so slow, only connected to my phone when I was right next to it, so I couldn’t check if my door was locked from away. After 1 year, I gave up and got two Schlage encodes and have such peace of mind. Don’t hesitate, trust Schlage
