the Autolock built in function locks the door 5 seconds after punching in the code, and Autolock cannot be turned off except by inserting the key on the outside and leaving the key inserted. You cannot pull the key out in the position that disables Autolock. All of this was confirmed by Schlage customer service. Stupid design, renders it useless for me, and not explained anywhere that impossible to disable this feature without leaving the key in the door on the outside!

I just installed this today, so I can't speak for battery life or longevity as of yet. I did use the included battery, which is just a regular 9V Duracell, so when that needs replacing I'll install a lithium one instead. The install was quite straight-forward and, aside from a few extra steps, was not really any more difficult than installing a standard door knob. Instructions were simple, though a few of the pictures left me momentarily confused. The lock is easy to program and use and all the features worked as expected. The programmable codes are limited to four digits, which was not an issue for me. It seems pretty well constructed. This door knob was installed on our garage door to stop my dad, who has fairly advanced dementia, from sneaking out of the house. ... MoreI just installed this today, so I can't speak for battery life or longevity as of yet.

Since people need to be able to use that door from either side, using something like a door guardian lock would not have worked. I installed the door knob backwards, so the keypad is on the inside of the house and it will keep him from entering the garage unsupervised. This method wouldn't work on an exterior door (it only locks on one side), but works fantastic for keeping him out of the garage while still making it easy to bring groceries and such into the house. The auto lock is timed just right and seems to work well. I had no issues disabling the lock while testing everything either. I'd definitely recommend this if you're trying to keep someone with dementia from passing through an interior door.

I really liked this lock for the past four years... until I found that it is now failing in a way that leaves the door unlocked! There is an actuator inside the lock that engages the inner lever to open the door when the correct pin is entered. Normally after a few seconds the actuator retracts and the door becomes locked again. You can hear the click when this happens. Surprise! Now after a few seconds the actuator retracts... just not all the way which leaves the inner lever engaged and the door open. If you play with the outer lever you can hear a second, fainter click as the actuator fully retracts and then the door locks again. But if you are not paying attention the lock stays open forever! That's not what an automatic lock should do, and is a huge security ... MoreI really liked this lock for the past four years... until I found that it is now failing in a way that leaves the door unlocked!

That's not what an automatic lock should do, and is a huge security hole for my building. EDIT: How to fix your lock in 10 minutes or less! The root problem is that the linear actuator pushes on a pin to engage the level, and the pin has a lubricant that turns to gum after a few years. Disassemble the lock and spray the pin with WD-40 to dissolve the gum and free the pin. Good as new! Now you don't have to buy another lock to replace the one that is still 99% working. Hints: You need a star key driver to take apart the lock. Carefully pull the top plate off the lock to see how the parts inside are situated. In particular there is a free plastic piece that sits on top of the linear actuator's spring and pushes against the pin. There is no need to compress the spring upon reassembly - the plastic piece has a catch that fits into the spring coils. Just set the plastic bit on top of the spring so that it just touches the top of the pin (this is the normal locked position). Be careful not to lose the very thin, tiny spring that pushes the pin out of the shaft. Without this spring the lock will stay open forever after the pin is engaged.

I very rarely give out 5 stars. Something has to be jaw dropping perfect to get 5. This lock is a very solid 4-4.5. I have no idea how easy the key lock part is to pick, but the lock as a whole seems well made. I have them on my home and I just installed them on my mother's house. It makes it easier for her to get in without fumbling for keys. It also allows her emergency contacts (police, ambulance, ...) to enter the house to check up on her. The lock installed easily in a door that had already had a lock in it. The programming is a tad difficult. Too much for my 90 year old mother, but easily enough with the instructions in front of you. The level door knob is also very nice for the elderly. Much easier to open then a round knob for stiff hands. The only negative ... MoreI very rarely give out 5 stars.

Much easier to open then a round knob for stiff hands. The only negative I have with the lock is the battery location. You have to remove the inside part of the lock to gain access. There is no simple cavity with a door. The batteries are inside the lock and hence you need to take the thing apart. Now to Schlage's credit, they did provide a mechanism to hold the outside part of the lock in place while you take off the inside, but still. I think they need to sharpen their pencil and come up with a better solution.
The design of this door lock is not what I expected. First of all, you have to remove the entire door lock in order to change the 9v battery since the battery is located in the housing on the outside of the door. Every other electronic door lock that I have used from other competitors has had the battery located in the housing on the inside of the door so that there was an easy access to change the battery. Secondly, this door lock does NOT have the Flex-Lock feature as advertised. The door will automatically lock 5 seconds after entering the code and there is no way to change or disable this feature. Finally, the inside handle is ALWAYS unlocked. Therefore, if you have toddlers or young children, they will always be able to open the door from inside the house which ... MoreThe design of this door lock is not what I expected.

This is my second Schlage keypad lock, and I really like the convenience of them. I have both of mine paired with a keyed deadbolt, so they aren't my primary security measure, but I feel like they could be because they both feel very solidly made. Installation is very easy, at least if you're doors already have a handle installed (like mine did) so that the holes are already drilled. Swapping out the old handle and putting this in was pretty quick work. I had to reverse the handles, but that took about a minute, and the instructions show you exactly how to do it. The instructions also make it very easy to program in your own code(s) to open the door, and let you customize some things (like turning off the beeping noise when you push a button).

The instructions also make it very easy to program in your own code(s) to open the door, and let you customize some things (like turning off the beeping noise when you push a button). The one thing that I've run into twice is having the bolt line up with the strike plate. My older locks are Kwikset, and it's probably just how the bolt holes and plates were installed years ago, but both Schlage units were every so slightly off. On this second one, I reinstalled the older Kwikset strike plate, and it worked great. So, maybe just try your old strike plate first before you take it off to install the one that comes with this unit. The handles are nice and smooth, and they swivel nicely without hanging up. They just have a great quality feel to them. Some tips - (1) pushing the "Schlage" button at the top center will light up the buttons for you, which is nice at night, and (2) pushing that same button will also reset entry of the code (so if you accidentally hit the wrong number midway through, you don't have to wait for it to reject the entry and start again...you just hit the Schlage button and then start again). My only regret is waiting so long to get a second one. Well worth the $100 it cost me.
Do not buy this lock!! I don't even know why they make this model. You cannot unlock this model and have it stay unlocked. So if you're home and you're going in and out you need to put the code in every time. You want the model that says Flex Lock. It's more expensive but it has a knob on the inside to unlock and stay unlocked. Not the Auto lock model. Will return and buy Flex lock.
Our old Schlage lock finally gave out after 22 years and heavy use. We had always thought about getting one with a code but couldn’t justify when the current lock worked. When it quit, we decided it was time. It has just been installed, but that was a breeze. Complete directions with photos and diagrams. Looking forward to this type of lock, now the grandkids can get in and not worry about having a key.
I have always bought Schlage locks. I have some that are 10+ years old and still working great.This model FE595 does not accept the code that I selected on a consistent basis. It always accepts the user codes provided; however it only excepts the code I set after a few failed attempts. I returned the 1st unit; the 2nd unit behaves the same way.
This is the 2nd Schlage keypad lever lock set I’ve purchased, the first one lasted 15 years. The only reason I replaced it was because our dog clawed the door and popped out the zero button, it working flawlessly until that point. Very impressed by the quality, it works from -40F in the winter to 105F in the summer! You won’t be disappointed if you purchase this lock set.
