Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I installed this on my garage entrance, it is perfect due to the fact that my garage is not attached to my house, the keypad makes for simple entry and I don't have to search for a set of keys to get in and out. If I forget to lock up, not a big deal. Kwikset does it for me!!! I have one on my main entry as well, I love it because I can walk the dogs and never have to worry about leaving the house unsecured or carry keys!! Great product, wan...

Run around without keys!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I installed this deadbolt about 5 months ago. Installation was easy (read the directions) and it works like a charm. So happy I decided to go with this option.

Kids Locked Out After School!
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product a year ago when my family and I moved into our new home. I was very impressed with the ease of installation and excited about the ease of use for the kids. However, over the past few months I have had to change the batteries several times. More disturbing, my children were locked out of the house this week after returning home from school, because the lock did not function properly -- appearing to be completely dead. H...

Love m keyless entry!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this product for more than 5 years and will never go back to a keyed entry. Just the simple entry of your code and the door is unlocked. No need to hassle with keys although I do keep one with me "just in case". It its battery operated so there is always the risk of the battery being dead. The indicator light lets you know when its time to change it so that should not be a problem. Battery life is more than a year and AA batteries ar...

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this look, it is easy, has two settings so I can give one to the cleaners and have one for myself, the combination is easy to change, and when I got into a new home I could easy take it with me, easy to install and I feel save, better than having a traditional look.

1 year today and working perfect !
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lock has never let me down. It's smooth action and corrosion free.a couple of thing could make it better. It has a green battery light that's always flashing and the motor is pretty loud. Over all its forgivable.

Love that Lock
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been fans of code-locks since our teenager lost his 3rd set of house keys. This was a great problem solver for all of us. No more fumbling for keys in the cold and dark(been there), or locking yourself out (done that), or having to rush home to let someone in. We can have a code for the kids, one for parents and inlaws, and one for contractors (just give them your "throwaway" code, then overwrite it later). We'll never go back to "key...

Great product !
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this several months ago and I am very happy with it. Very easy to install and use. I really like the Smart Key function. I can use one key for several locks. I also just bought another one for a good friend and installed it for her and she loves it !

Make getting in and out of the house easy!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We built a new house and bought the dead bolt for the door. It has functioned well and allows entry without digging for a key! We are more that satified with our purchase@

Superb, functional, intuitive lock.
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for the automatic lock function. My grand-kids would bolt through front door and the race to the street was on. Fortunately Grandpa won them all , but I wasn't ready to risk it. This eliminated the unlocked front door. I love this thing. I've had it for several years now, we just bought a new one in bronze for our new door. No more sweating the house key, no fumbling in the dark, no issues passing keys to neighbors or friend...

Unusable
Would Not RecommendUnit will not retract deadbolt all the way. It leaves the dead bolt extended about 1/2". No info anywhere as to how to correct this problem.

Owner for over 1 year
Would RecommendI had trouble finding reviews for people who had this for more than a few weeks. I have had this installed (self) on my front door for more than a year and it is WONDERFUL. The Energizer/Duracell batteries I use have yet to run out, still going! The codes are SO EASY to set and reset. This is incredibly convenient and user-friendly. I simply replaced my old deadbolt with this one. To add to my positive thoughts -- I lost the actual keys to it and felt panicked that I might one day need the...

Great Lock - Great Customer Support
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this lock to go on the front door of our new home. The instalation and programming were straight forward and very easy. The original batteries died after 1 month. The second set of batteries died after 3 months. I called Customer Support and explained my problem. They sent me a new unit and I changed it out. It has been working great for the last 14 months.

909 Smartcode Deadbolt is Very Good.
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about 9 months ago and didn't want to write a review without real world testing it first. Well, 9 months later and it's turned out to be a very good electronic Deadbolt. It only jammed on me once, and that was because of a very low battery, but it opened with the key anyway. Great product.

Love this combo deadbolt
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have 3 of these; two on master bedroom and 1 on my home office. I love this product and would highly recommend, batteries last about a year and easy to change out, I like that I can use a key or the combination.

Great lock, battery life so so
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a similar lock in a previous home, so purchased this in my new home. I purchased it for the contemporary satin nickel look, as I like the square design. I love smart-key technology... although I have had some minor issues with copied keys with this technology. The ease of use outweighs the copy key issue. I use this on my main entry point for ease of access. Much easier than fumbling for keys and turning. Also easy to allow access for ot...
