Schlage Encode Plus Century Matte Black Electronic Deadbolt and Bowery-Greyson Door Knob Bundle

Every lock had some kind of damage

Ordered 3 of these locks during a Black Friday sale. Received all three, and every single one had some sort of damage to it, even though the box was absolutely fine. The problem lies with how Schlage packages these locks... its literally the worst way to package a lock I have ever seen. I debated on keeping them and dealing with the defects, but after reading through more of the reviews I decided against it. Worst part is, I could have bought something else on sale, but now the sales are over an...

Schlage quality has declined

Compared to some Plymouth knobs I bought several years ago, this knob is much looser and more jiggly, and the spring feels weaker. The inner knob feels significantly looser than the outer knob. The rosette has so many large and ugly cutouts around the edge that there is no way to orient it to make it look good. I have purchased a few of the newer Schlage knobs and levers in different styles and they are all like this -- the levers also sag quite badly when brand new and cannot be adjusted. Unf...

Another great Schlage product

a little pricey but when it comes to security and trust it’s hard to put a price on it. The Schlage app is easy to use and the quality is top notch as usual. Easy to install, heavy built, ease of use is great. I only have once down fall but not enough to take a star away, I wish the backlit would come on before you touch it just so you don’t enter the wrong first number in your sequence.

Doesn't work with Android & iPhone simultaneously

What you cannot do right now: Pair it with the Schlage Home app on Android and separately pair it to Apple HomeKit on iPhone as independent setups. One will overwrite the other unless you factory reset the lock each time. I also found this to be true even across two iPhones (using latest models & iOS). Dual setup on Android (Schlage) and iPhone (HomeKit) simultaneously isn’t supported until Schlage updates their firmware to supoort Matter. Another reason I gave it a low rating, the Schlage app f...

Nice build & features but still has some issues

Mechanically - the two machine screws that attach the entire inside part of the lock (i.e., the part with manual locking lever, circuitry, & batt tray) to the mounting plate are way too short and only barely engage two threads (not enough). Will probably replace with longer ones. Also, bought a new, sealed/unopened box, but the reinforcement/strike plate with offset screw holes was missing. It's clearly shown in the manual and you can clearly see how it's needed if you're using the standard stri...

Great for STVRs

We selected this lock for our front and back door on our STVR as it came highly recommended by our hosting vendor. It synchs up with the app and can issue new codes for each reservation. It was easy to install, but a little tricky to connect the app to the wifi. However once connected, it has been working seamlessly.

Can’t disconnect

Purchased 10 of these, but can’t open a single one because the two pieces are connected, and the instructions are not clear. No need to reply with your generic response instead, you should probably respond with how to open these things and put a picture in the instruction manual for God sake!

Lock has goofy UNLOCK logic

If the lock is already UNLOCKED when you enter the correct code (thinking it's locked), the lock then LOCKS itself, making you enter the code again to re-unlock it. Shouldn't it just remain unlocked?

Will not tarnish

Good knob, needs better instructions

I like the way this looks and it works well to have a door lockable from the outside or inside on the door of my roommate's room. The one major downside is it comes in the package put together with no instructions in the package, videos linked, or other videos found on how to detach them from each other so you can actually install the doorknob. It turns out there is a small place to press down under one of the knobs to pull off the knob then they can be unscrewed from other each. The instruct...
