[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this lock. It looks great compared to other smart locks I’ve owned. This looks very elegant and crisp on my door. The features are awesome, it’s nice having the flexibility to use the app, the keypad, or a standard key depending on the situation.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had the Schlage Encode Plus Smart WiFi Deadbolt with Century Trim in Matte Black installed for a few weeks now, and it’s exceeded expectations. Setup was simple and paired seamlessly with my iPhone using Apple Home Key—no need to open an app or even unlock my phone to get in. The matte black finish looks sleek and modern, adding a high-end touch to my front door.
What really sold me was the built-in WiFi. I can lock or unlock it remotely without needing a hub, and I get real-time alerts when the door is used. I’ve even set custom codes for guests and deliveries, which has been super convenient. Battery life has held up well so far, and installation was straightforward with clear instructions.
If you’re looking for a smart lock that blends premium design with top-tier tech, this is it. It’s secure, responsive, and packed with features—definitely a smart upgrade for any home.
