EASY INSTALL – WORKS WELL – NO OUTSIDE KNOB
This lock only took about 15 minutes to install including removing the old lock.I replaced a much higher quality lock with this one because I wanted more numbers for the combination. The original only allowed 4 digits. This seems to be made well enough and I give it 5 stars after testing.I have programmed these kind of locks before so I recommend you ignore part of the instructions regarding battery installation. I suggest you first decide what you want to use for the master code. And any other codes before you do anything.You can use up to 9 digits and I will only say the more numbers you use the more secure your lock will be. I also recommend that unless you need a code for family or friends, you do not program any user codes. I suggest only adding one more code. The more codes you put in, the weaker your security is. There is no point putting in a 9 number master code and 3 or 4, 4 number user codes. DUH! except that the user codes do not allow programming. So, before assembly and installing the lock, install the batteries and do all your programming on your desk or bench before installing the lock. The note about not using re-chargeable batteries is a good recommendation. Re-chargeable batteries have a lower voltage than Lithium or Alkaline or even regular batteries and they won’t last long if you use the lock very much.Note the little TIT on the small rod that goes thru the door from the outside to the inside part of the lock and note the slot in the dead bolt lever. The slot in the dead bolt lever must be facing UP and the tit on the rod must match.The downside of this type of lock is your deadbolt has to be perfectly lined up with the hole in the strike plate for the lock to lock electrically otherwise it will not get in the strike hole and you will have to use the key to lock the door while you jiggle it to line up the dead bolt with the strike hole.I prefer locks with exterior knobs for this reason. Houses and buildings shift with the weather so you may have it perfect today and when weather changes it may not line up.

Nice Door Lock Set – Easy to Install – USB Issue
Nice Lock. Easy Install to preexisting holes.Programming steps not the same between instruction book and 1 page guide.Went with instruction book.If programming seems jammed up or not blinking green right press the “lock” button on the keypad and start again.Dead Bolt slides very easy.. Default is autolock with option to program disable.There is a USB port on the Keypad (bottom lip) that is wired internally to the circuit board. No instructions or Ad says why.Searching around it appears that this is an emergency power port if lock batteries fail or are dying and You cant get your key or another door.Problem is instructions say alkaline batteries only. Charging Alkaline batteries will cause pressure buildup (gas) and damage to the battery to include possible explosion. There are rechargeable alkalines but they take a special charger.If you try this as a last resort it would be wise to dispose of the batteries after.Again there no mention in the ad or in the instructions.Nice replacement to a similar one that gave up the ghost.

Very nice set
This is a very nice set it matches well with itself. The handle is nonlocking, while the deadbolt has a key option as a backup to the keypad. The hardware is well made and feels sturdy; while these locks aren’t the most secure, I like them for convenience. I haven’t used keys in over a decade, and it’s nice to have a key option as a backup to the keypad. In case the batteries die or something breaks on the digital side of things. These socks are very basic, with just a ribbon cable to control the electronics inside; they are waterproof up to a point. I have a few locks that are in direct rain and sometimes glitch when the pads get too wet. I feel like this should last a few years if installed on a good door jam. You have to be careful with electronics to make sure the deadbolt lines up well before installing the batteries. I bent or broke one lock in the past when the door started sagging and making contact with the keeper when it tried to lock. This is a good value for the quality received .

Looks great, works great
The ELAMOR M19 Keyless Entry Door Lock with 2 Lever Handles is a great purchase for our home. The auto-lock is one of the features that caught my eye, it gives us peace of mind knowing that the door is always locked. The second thing that impressed me was the ability to program multiple user codes (up to 50 codes). Our daughter and grandchildren are staying for a while so everyone got their own code instead of keys. My son was the installer and he said it was pretty straightforward with no surprises. It was the second one he installed and they are quite similar. Everything works as it should. We ordered the Sand Nickel and I love it. As far as how long it will last with constant use, time will tell. If we have any failures I will update my review, so far so good.

Third times a charm
After installing 2 other digital locks I finally got one that I could program to use on my left opening door and one that has instructions that are comprehensive!!Pros:1) Very easy to install. Installation and programming instructions are comprehensive and easy to follow.2) Very easy to change from a right opening door to a left opening door.3) Very easy to program as it acknowledges every sub-entry as you work through the menu.4) Attractive and sturdy (I feel comfortable that this lock will be effective).5) You can unlock your door via the use of keys or a unique code that you punch into the keypad.Cons:1) It does not connect to Bluetooth or WiFi, (slight inconvenience).2) It has an auto lock feature that I love but, you can only delay the auto lock up to 30 seconds. I’d prefer one that I can set in hours or a time of day.Overall: I’m happy with this lock as it provides the convenience I was looking for. No more going out my back door and getting locked out. I can now punch in a code and get back in.
