[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this lock for a little over a month and I wish I would’ve purchased it a long time ago. It provides such a huge piece of mind. I always know if it’s locked or unlocked. Everyone has their own code so I always know who is going in and out.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have bought about 10 of these Wi-Fi locks from you guys and I've loved every single one of them. I love the fact that you can add them to your SmartHome and that you can use it with Alexa. I have them on my house, my shop and my business. Thank you for making such a great product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Schlage digital locks cannot be beat for simplicity of installation and control via the Schlage app. I’ve installed three of these locks so far. The battery life is excellent. *Pro tip; make sure to eliminate any bolt pressure at the time of install. This will greatly increase the battery life.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lock is beautiful & works well but after only 2 years it runs through 4 AA batteries in less than 2 weeks. Got a replacement & the same thing is happening. Running through 4 AA batteries in about 1 month. It was great for the first 2 years, rarely had to replace the batteries. Not sure what has changed but definitely disappointed in how much money I now need to spend on batteries.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I originally hired someone to install but when I replaced the garage door I was able to just do it myself
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish it mentioned somewhere before I purchased it that a hub would be needed to use some of the features. The hands free option requires Apple Home Kit, which requires an Apple hub, iPad set up as a hub, or Apple TV as a hub. The beeps are really hard to hear when using the keypad or opening the door. Other than that it works well as a lock.
