I have owned 3 of these for about 18 months. I have replaced the batteries in each of them 3 times. I am using a name brand battery so the expectation of 1 year battery life is over exaggerating. I do like the locks but I do keep a key handy when the batteries go dead. I have taken a new approach after the last battery change -- I'm going to ignore the indicator lights and see how long they will last before they go dead completely.

A Smart Investment

My daughter bought and installed this for me for my birthday, over a year ago, along with the Lever handle. As I have arthritis in both thumbs, this has been the best present I ever could have received! No more searching for my keys and the ease of punching in a code of my choice is the best ever invention! I am so impressed by this Smart Code Deadbolt, that I purchased one for my 82 year old mother and she loves it, too! So easy to unlock the front door and no more fumbling for the key. Adding the Lever Handle, has made this the best combo for my arthritis hands and even my husband loves the ease of unlocking and locking the door with just a push of a button! Love, love, love this and would highly recommend these products to anyone!

Best home security feature I've purchased!

We bought this about 2 years ago. It is so easy to use and is so much easier to enter and lockup the house than using a key. Even when replacing the batteries it remembers the code so there is no reprograming. We did have it stop working on us, but I called costumer support and they sent out a brand new one immediately. Great product and the finish still looks great.

Great deadbolt features and reliability!

We purchased our smart deadbolt on a trip last fall. It has been 100% reliable for both us and our pet sitter. We would love to use the auto locking feature but, having a dog, we would continually be unlocking. We purchased the gold coloured unit and find that it looks elegant and matches our lever handset. The smart deadbolt was a breeze to install and easy!! to set up. I really appreciate the ease of access to the settings and batteries via the large sliding inside face. It's a good feeling to press the lock button and walk away, hearing the "locked beep", not to mention having the flashing red or green (locked/unlocked) light seen from within. I think friends are getting into it -- a recent visitor exited ... and locked himself out!

KWIKSET - THE GOLD STANDARD

I have equipped two homes in the recent past with Kwikset Smart Key hardware. Once, I locked myself out and had to get a locksmith. He took one look at the deadbolt and lever and groaned! He had to physically destroy the lock set to gain entry. These are unbeatable as the best security, affordable hardware on the market, and the Smartkey system is tops for convenience as well!
