Overview
The Amazon Basics electronic keypad deadbolt is a matte black, single-pack touch-control lock that pairs keyless code entry with a traditional key and thumbturn as backup, aimed at a simple lock swap.
This is a budget-tier alternative to the app-connected locks in the same category: there is no WiFi or app here, just a keypad with a fixed set of codes and a physical key as fallback. The listing calls out an important setup step, changing the default programming code and creating a personal code before the lock is considered secured.
- Touch-control keypad with 6 user codes
- Temporary single-use guest codes
- Adjustable auto-lock, 10-99 seconds
- Fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 in thick
Who it's for
Works for someone who wants basic keyless entry at a lower price point without app or WiFi features. Not a fit for anyone who wants remote access, guest scheduling, or a high code capacity.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Traditional key and thumbturn back up the keypad
- Auto-lock timer is adjustable, 10 to 99 seconds
- Temporary single-use codes for guests
- Only 6 permanent user codes
- No app or WiFi control
- Default code must be manually changed at setup
Performance notes
Touch-control entry supports 6 permanent user codes plus temporary single-use codes for guests, and auto-lock relocks the door automatically 10 to 99 seconds after someone enters. A traditional key still works from outside and a thumbturn locks it from inside, so the keypad is not the only way in or out. Amazon Basics specifically flags changing the default programming code and deleting the factory user code as a required setup step, not an optional one.
