Hello Heidi,

We're here to help! To illuminate the keypad, you must push the LOCK button at the top of the keypad, while the deadbolt is in the Locked position. Once the keypad is lit up, you can then enter your code to unlock it. Also, please ensure you have programmed an Access Code via the Kwikset App. Should you need additional assistance, our Support Team is more than happy to help you at 1-800-327-5625.

Thank you,

Defective
This is a terrible lock. It only works about half of the time with the fingerprints you set up, demolishes batteries every couple of months with minimal use, and forces you to completely reset the lock occasionally because the software will just break. Run away, run far away!

    We wanted to love this electric Bluetooth deadbolt - three of us worked on the set up of the lock after our contractor installed it. Not once did we get it to work and couldn't even reset it to the factory default setting to try again. If it's this complicated to set up, we decided it wasn't worth the time or money that we had already paid for the install. We returned it and got a regular deadbolt lock instead.

    Love it!! Sleek look, Works great, Easy to use. This has made life so much easier for our family. No need to carry keys & we can keep track of our kids going in and out. Pair this with a ring alarm and you can see whose at the door & unlock it from your phone, no need to stop what your doing. Love that there's so many code slots available for friends, family, hired help ect. & you can set access times! Perfect for housekeeper, can give them the code and it only works on that day between those hours. I absolutely love it! Highly recommend.

    Hello Michael,

    We are here to help! A fresh set of alkaline batteries will last up to 6 months in the Halo lock. Here are some steps to follow that will extend the battery life.
    1. Check that your door is properly aligned and that the door frame jamb hole is a full 1 inch deep and clear for the latch to extend fully into the jamb hole.
    2. Use name-brand alkaline batteries, and please do not use lithium and rechargeable batteries.
    3. Perform the door handing process to recalibrate the latch: https://www.kwikset.com/support/answers/my-smart-lock-is-giving-me-a-jam-error
    4. Keep the router approximately 100 feet away from the lock and make sure that your lock's firmware is updated.
    For additional assistance, please call our Support Team at 1-800-327-LOCK (5625).

        This is a very nice looking and good quality handleset at a great price. I am deducting a star because of a software/firmware flaw that keeps the deadbolt in the locked position if it senses a jam condition. Once this occurs there is no way to unlock the door via the app or the fingerprint sensor as both of these ways only function as a 'toggle' between locked and unlocked. When in the jam state the lock thinks it's unlocked so the when you engage the app or fingerprint sensor it only tries to continue to lock the deadbolt. This has already resulted in me being locked out a few times since I did not have the physical key at the time. In my case the jamming is being caused by the wood in my door expanding slightly due to weather/humidity from the rain so the deadbolt was touching the wood inside the strikeplate slightly causing it to sense a jam. I have removed some of the wood and that has fixed the issue until the next longer period of rain where the expanding was worse. I am hoping that an updated firmware/app will resolve this at some point in the future.

          I sort of wish I could open the door, or close the door from anywhere however I would have to get a hub as well as the wi fi lock or spend an extra 100 dollars and that's not worth it. I like visually looking at the codes I set on the phone.i like the look mostly of the brushed silver lock but love the look of the handset better

            Fingerprint sensor is very unreliable. Saved fingerprints don’t work after a few days, and I have to keep re-configuring my finger if I want it to keep working. I mainly keep it for the capability of remotely unlocking via phone. Material/finish quality is good though. I’m satisfied with the feel and sturdiness of the bottom handle.

            Hello Ane Ts,
            Thank you for your feedback. Here are some steps to get your Halo Touch locks in working order:
            1. For the best response from the fingerprint reader, please make sure that both your fingers and the reader are clean from any oils or lotions. We recommend wiping down the lock with a clean, dry cloth. If you are still experiencing the fingerprint reader not reading your print correctly, we suggest reprogramming your fingerprints on the lock with clean, dry hands.
            2. To ensure the lock's not jamming, please check the door alignment, that the jamb hole is one inch deep for the latch to extend fully into the hole, and perform the door handing process: https://www.kwikset.com/support/answers/how-do-i-hand-or-calibrate-the-halo-touch-smart-lock
            For additional assistance, our Support Team is happy to help at 1-800-327-5625.
