[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We own a total of seven short term rental properties and we have this lock installed on each and every one of them. Makes my life so much easier.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this lock. It’s my second one of the same style but upgraded to work with apple homekit. The only issue I have is sometimes pairing with HomeKit is hard to set up.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Encode Plus. I have used a variety of smart locks over the years, including having two separate systems in the same house concurrently.
This one is by far my favorite. It blends into the door without looking out of place, had a quick and easy install (15 mins top) and seemed the most user friendly. I also love how it works with my ring door bell app and camera.
I plan on switching all of my exterior locks to match.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have these locks on the Airbnbs I run and my personal home! They make check in easy for my guests and when friends come over to my house I can give them their own personal code. Love this lock! Battery life is great as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using smart locks from Schlage since a long time The one installed currently ( Encode) has been working flawlessly It helps me keep track of time when babysitter comes and checks out, nice little discrete way to keep track of hours(ans she has her specific time based key codes) and pay accordingly!
Plus the key codes have validity time window for each day that makes me feel secure as no unwanted entry while I sleep!
