What Customers Are Saying

The electronic lock has mixed performance - it works well for some customers, but many experience issues with the lock mechanism failing after 1-2 years. Battery life is also a common complaint, with users reporting having to change batteries every 3-4 weeks. On the positive side, customers appreciate the convenience of keyless entry and the ability to program multiple access codes. However, there are concerns about the durability and reliability of the lock, with many users having to replace their units multiple times.

Bought and returned twice. First lock would not catches, just kep clicking. Second locks mechanism just kept spinning around. Changed brand. Third purchase is fabulous. Of course it is a different lock and different company.

Looks nice, very confusing and feels unsafe.

Every time I walk into the garage, the lever does not warn me that the door is going to lock behind me!! When I check all the doors at night, this door opens right up even when it's in the locked position which is so confusing. I have to yank on inner and outer just to be totally sure the door is set to lock. If it's locked, the lever should not move, period. Very very poor design. Taking it back and switching all my locks to a different manufacturer.

Keyless Entry Lock

Would Not Recommend

Easy to install, but I had trouble programming the lock. I had technician come out to look at it and they also had trouble. Returned product to LOWES. Refund was easy.

Love it!

Would Recommend

Love this new Smartcode door handle! So many times I would get to the door with my hands full, only to find the door locked. This is so much easier than setting my bags down and digging through my purse to find a key. I would have given it 5 stars but we had to exchange our first one because the lock mechanism came right out when we tried to use a key.The second one we received did not have that problem. We are very happy with it.

Easy to operate. Increased safety.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have installed these on all of my doors. Work well in most cases, I recommend stuffing the hole through the door with a ball of loose fiberglass insulation. The hot air outside and cool air inside caused the circuit board to fail on two locks due to condensation. This helped and does not interfere with operation. I wish that you could change batteries without taking the special hex screws out to remove the cover. Don't lose that wrench!...

handy for those that lose keys

This is my second lock like this and i have to say is very nice to have. Can change the Number easy and set differant access times if you want. You can also make it match you other Kwikset keys if you have any.

Poor quality, save yourself

Would Not Recommend

Super poor quality lock. Gone through two of these hoping that the problems with the first was my fault from the install but they both crapped out after a couple months of use. Whirring and grinding sound as the lock opens starts and never goes away. All of the cheaper Kwikset products have some sort of issue. Recommend a higher quality product.
