SCHLAGEBE375 CAM 619 Touch Camelot Deadbolt, Electronic Keyless Entry Lock, Satin Nickel

A well-priced electronic version from lock maker Schlage.Easy install- the parts actually line up more easily than some other brands of (regular) deadbolts, no fiddling to get things aligned, even with the addition of control wires routed through the door. I had to modify the deadbolt hole in the doorframe (which previously had a kwikset deadbolt) but that took just 5 minutes with a Dremel.Note that you need to use your own handle. Or buy the matching part.I use this on a secondary door since I prefer a keyed option for my main door. I had a pet-sitter use this mechanism for access without any confusion and never having seen it before, so it's "easy" to use.Positives:* Simple mechanism (the deadbolt is hand-turned, no key) reduces chance of failure and uses less battery.* Locked mechanism feels "normal". (doesn't spin loosely like another Schlage version)* Long battery life if minimal usage.* Emergency access using a spare 9V if the battery fails (eg, carry one in your car or bag).* Cheaper than equivalent versions with electronic actuation or keyed access.* Looks pretty nice, needed minimal modification to install.* Good quality hardware other than battery cover.Negatives:* The battery cover is plastic and seems destined to break since it's tight when removing/reinstalling* No keyed backup* Activity light doesn't flash on every keypress making it hard to tell if you actually pressed the buttons* Code entry times out *fast* and it's unclear how long to wait until trying again. Not a problem if you have it memorized, but if you were consulting your phone or trying to remember the longer programming code, you may end up trying several times* It's easy to accidentally pinch the power wires when installing the battery, a cable clip or guide inside the battery cover would have made replacement easierOverall: Works great. Recommended.

I love having this keyless lock. Very easy to use

Keyless ....... bump-proof. I bought 3 and they have worked perfectly for 7 years.

I've had pretty good luck with SCHLAGE brand deadbolts and purchased this one to replace the 10yr old one whose plastic keys have all cracked and broken. Installation took about 15 minutes - and the one for one exchange on my door made things easy. Programming isn't difficult and I was able to easily program new codes and delete the default codes.PROBLEM: After installation, one of my kids walked up to the door, randomly pressed a single number and the door UNLOCKED. At first I thought this was a fluke. Nope. All it takes to get in was to randomly press ANY single number and you're in. Unfortunately, I can't find the original packaging and now I can't return it - so I'm stuck with this JUNK. In the meanwhile, I'm back to analog keys...

Great so far. Works very well It would be nice if the keypad would light up. Hard to see it after dark. Quality is good and installation a snap. Keypad feel when entering numbers is not great and easy to mispunch numbers. Overall happy with the quality exceptions listed above

I recently moved into a new house and decided to try a "keyless" deadbolt lock. I'm getting to an age where I find myself fumbling for my keys while navigating a rollator to get into the house -- keyless would make life a lot easier. This seemed like a good solution -- a touchpad that I could easily manage. Installation was a piece of cake -- no, I didn't do it myself, but the locksmith had it in and working in less than 15 minutes. I love that I can have multiple codes (I'm letting those who need to gain entry choose their own code so it's easy for them to remember). So far, no glitches.

Looks great, works well, fits different applications, but lasts about 2.5 years. I've owned 4 of these. 1 just stopped working completely and was completely unresponsive to being jumped by a fresh battery. The only improvement I would suggest is some more protection for the battery wires so they don't get pinched. Some more space to wrap them inside would help too. Otherwise, great all around!

This is my favorite push-button lock, we have installed them on multiple homes. We have this lock on all the exit doors in our house and garage….they never disappoint. My husband installs the deadbolt and the matching Schlage door lever. He says installation is easy and fast.
