Customer Reviews for Schlage Century Matte Black Electronic Connect Smart Deadbolt with Alarm - Z-Wave Plus Enabled

easy to install, easy to program

The thing I liked most about this product is that I was able to install it in about 20 minutes (including removing the old lock mechanism). Everything fit like a glove, and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I guess I should have read the description of the product a little more closely before I bought it, though. I thought that the deadbolt would open and close on its own once the four-digit code was entered. It doesn't. The code only makes the lock active. you have to turn the outside "knob" manually to open and close the deadbolt. Then, after a few seconds, the mechanism is no longer active and it's either open or closed. (The inside mechanism is always workable.)

We have one of these on our front door and it has been such a great lock! The best thing is they are so easy to program I can put a code in it in less than 1 minute easily, I have our front door master code memorized so I can put a code in it in less than 30 seconds! We got this second one because we rent a room in our basement and we have a separate entrance to the basement and we put this lock on that door, it gives you peace of mind knowing your not giving out keys and have to change locks instead you can erase and program new codes in a couple of minutes! It is also easy to install, it installs just like a regular lock the only extra thing is plugging a wire harness together and putting in a battery, which will last for years by the way and the light up blue keypad is great when it's dark plus it has 10 buttons which is great I know some locks combined numbers so they only have 5 buttons. Well we couldn't be happier with these locks and we are starting to change our rental units to these locks as well!

We are in the hospitality business and love having this to change the code as frequent as we like. Guests have found it easy to use. No idea how well they hold up over time but impressed so far with it.

This product is well made except for the internal locking knob. It fells a little like plastic. Other than that this lock is beefy, installs nicely and works well. The keypad is easy to use, and its easy to change combinations. Over all, I would recommend this lock

I had someone install this for me and the hole had to be enlarged, but, other than that the install went fast, the product is of a good quality and easy to use. I especially like the appearance on my green door. I can't comment on battery life as I only had for a month.

I replaced my existing Schlage deadbolt with this one so installation was a breeze. All you need is a Philips screw driver. Easy to follow directions. This is not a motorized deadbolt so the battery should last a lot longer also no motorized interior parts to break down. It has a backlit keypad. Came with a 9v Alkaline Battery. Setting the codes was easy to do. Stores up to 19 different codes. Came with 2 keys in case you forget your entry code or the battery dies. After you leave just push the top button and turn the dial towards the door jamb to lock the door. You will need your code or key to re-enter.

Used this on our lake home and this will allow our grown children to not have to use a key.

was a very easy install, i actually already had a deadbolt in, i just replaced it with the Schlage keypad deadbolt, i love it...works beautifully

. The keypad deadbolt fits our need perfectly, it is easy to install, have it on three different doors with one common code with no keys to lose. it's design is appealing, operational to all family members, young and all. Ordered the unit and received it two days later. Satisfied plus with this product.

This was the easiest deadbolt I've ever installed. If you have a screwdriver and your door is already cut for the deadbolt or you're just replacing you can do this. I do wish it sat a little more flush against the door (see picture) which might be our old door's fault and not the unit. Though it isn't far enough away for me to drop a star. App only lets me add one photo.

We purchased 2 of these, between two outside doors. One goes to workshop from home garage. It's awesome to not need the key to lock and unlock as we are constantly going in and out of these two doors. They were easy to install, easy to program. The dead bolt knob free-spins, until you set it to lock or unlock. Of course, you have to know the code to unlock. Workshop is a new building, so we can give contractors the deadbolt code and we will change it later when all work is completed! Great purchase. Very strong and reliable. I would highly recommend this keypad deadbolt. Looks great too.

It was easy to install. Manual was very helpful. Look Great. Don't have to carry key around.

I love this addition to my new front door. Using the code is so much easier than fumbling for keys. My car has keyless ignition so my keys are often not readily available. By the time I get to the front door I often have to drop everything to search for keys. The instructions are clear and each family member has their own code. It did not include the correct plate for the jam and I am still trying to locate that part. I do plan on purchasing another for the garage.

The lock looks great and functions just as well. Easy to program, and no more messing with keys. Easy to lock and unlock w/ the keypad. Highly recommend this lock!

This deadbolt is easy to install. Connecting it to the WiFi and the required App for a non-tech guy did take assistance from customer service but only took a few minutes. The customer service rep was exceptional, courteous and knowledgeable.

Very easy installation Very easy to operate

Works great, easy to install and program

Product is good. My 2nd one. Nice to have remote access. Batteries die quickly in the winter if outside lock, so always have a key handy. Don’t buy from Home Depot. They will only give you back store credit on a return, even if unopened. On top of that, the store credit doesn’t work. Still trying to resolve with HD.

Having difficulties making it work and manual not good enough to troubkeshoot
