Quality Lock With Many Features
The instructions in the box plus an installation video that popped up on my phone when I scanned a barcode in the user manual made this a rather easy installation process. I replaced a basic mechanical Schlage deadbolt lock, so the holes were already there.I like the many features such as assigning temporary access codes, auto-locking after a specified time, being able to control and configure everything via the free Schlage Home app and various other things. Now our house-sitter won’t lock herself out of the house again when we are away on vacation.It has a BHMA Grade 1 rating, according to the specifications sheet, which is considered the best of the best in locks.You can create from 4-8 digit access codes and store up to 100 different codes via the app.I also like that it is WiFi compatible right out of the box and it doesn’t require an aftermarket hub to connect it through. Mine quickly found and connected directly to my home network router. It only works with 2.4GHz, not 5GHz. Not a big deal with me, I have both. It is Android and iPhone compatible, works with Alexa, Google Assist and my Ring security camera app.So far, I haven’t found anything that I do not like about this Schlage Encode. After slightly more than six months since I installed this it shows 39% battery life in the app with WiFi enabled the entire time, so it drops about 10% per month. It looks nice, too. I will update my review if something changes.Here are some hopefully helpful hints to pass on after reading some other reviews where people were having trouble.1. If the battery life on yours is short, make sure that the lock bolt does not bind. There should be no extra friction when you manually operate the lock via the lever, whether you do that with the door open or closed.2. If you cannot see the keypad numbers at night, press the Home button in the bottom left corner of the keypad to wake it up and then you can enter the access code.

Easy to use for AirBNB Renters
We had a $600 very sophisticated LOCKLY installed for our AirBNB rental for little less than a year. What a nightmare. The system had a hub and it would go off the internet on its own, you had to be there to sync it with your phone and power cycle it constantly. Then on top of it it was not intuitive and it took an hour of instructions so they could open it and close it and use it. The best thing we did was throw it away. It was the most stressful for us being long distance property managers but was a total nightmare for our renters. The next best thing we did was to buy this Schlage Encode Lock. First of all Schlage customer service was excellent. We called them before we purchased and they had the right answers. First of all if you are not near your rental property, and you have a trusted handyman as we do, they instructed us on how he could put the app on his phone with my husband’s email and passwords. Our handyman installed the Schlage he said it was a snap, downloading the app with the snap, he synced the lock to his app. He got out of the app. my husband then went into the app on his phone and done. Now if there is any problem our handyman can go over, hubby gets out of app, he gets back in and syncs the lock and etc.Since the October 30th 2023 install our AirBNB have been there now for almost 2 months, with new ones coming in early January. I just got off the phone with our renters and the lock is easy to use there’s been no issues whatsoever. It is very intuitive easy easy. Not once has it gone offline, there has been one Schlage system update which would have thrown our old LOCKLY system off and us to be personally there to sync with our phone. This one no problem.The only negative that our renter brought to our attention this morning is that the batteries need to be replaced often. He said every 3 weeks. We need to look into this, but that said, we left a whole drawer of batteries not anticipating it, but thinking good and wise to do so. It was wise. That said very easy to replace the batteries and the renters didn’t even call us he just handled it. The LOCKLY system was set up so that you need a small tiny Phillips screwdriver and directions to figure out how to replace the batteries.All in all this has been an answer to a prayer on the many issues we’ve had with the previous lock. Hope this helps out others with this review whether you rent or using it personally.

Easy to Install
When I bought the lock, it was $50.00 less than Home Depot, and it arrived the same day. Great! The installation was very easy, sine I was replacing an existing dead bolt lock. The paper instructions were very clear, and there were online step by step instructions too. It even walked you through the programming and connecting to my WiFi. Features I like, you can lock and unlock remotely. Set it to have an alarm when it is unlocked. It will alert you on your cell when it is locked or unlocked. Has very smooth operation. The button numbers on the outside are raised up so you actually feel when you enter the code. Four 3-A batteries are included with the lock. Some I checked out, you had to buy separately. Finally, it is a very nice looking lock, and there are a number of choices for the style and finish.Recommended

I had door installers put these on a new door for me (not a locksmith). Then I had someone else set it up for me. The app works great, takes only 1-2 seconds to respond. I was a little lost at first but the guide on Schlage’s blog helped me out a lot. Easy to set up new users and virtual keys. Love it! It looks really pretty too ^_^ I bought mine with the matching handle and interior door levers 🙂

Quality product. Very well made. Battery life seems to be about 5 months. With light use. Maybe better batteries could be longer.

Bought it on September 13th 2023 still working good. Need to change the battery twice a year. But I get a slow response on my phone, sometime I get a notification 1/2 an hour later. Not my fault, I have fast Internet and router. I like the app, simple to use.
