Overview

Not a plain keypad lock, this Schlage deadbolt joins the home network through built-in Wi-Fi and pairs with the Schlage Home app. Codes, history and alerts come through the app, and a touchscreen keypad handles entry at the door.

Wi-Fi without a bridge, Apple Home Key support and voice assistant links cover most smart home setups in one lock. The limits are a warranty restricted to certain sellers and a listing that never states the battery type or door thickness.

Who it's for

A front door in a house already run through Apple Home, Alexa or Google Assistant gets the most from this lock, and short-term rentals can issue codes remotely. Anyone who prefers a lock that works fully offline should look at a plain keypad model.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wi-Fi without a separate hub
  • Apple Home Key and watch unlock
  • Works with three voice platforms
  • Many access codes
Cons
  • Warranty limited to certain sellers
  • Battery type not listed
  • Needs a home Wi-Fi network for remote use
  • Door thickness range missing

Performance notes

Remote functions run through the home Wi-Fi network and the Schlage app, so a weak router signal at the door affects alerts and remote control. The touchscreen and Bluetooth tap unlock work locally, and the lock stays usable with a stored code if the network drops.
