KwiksetSmartCode 955 Pembroke Light Commercial 10-Button Keypad Electronic Lever, Featuring Convenient Keyless Entry, 3-Year Batter Life and High Traffic Durability Matte Black

I purchased this because carrying an arm load of groceries & fumbling around in my pocket for keys can be a struggle. This keypad door lock is reasonably easy to install, & use. The project took about 40 minutes to install, & program. As long as this lock fits your door, it is reasonably easy to install and setup.I would buy this again if I need another. I have used this on the kitchen to garage door. It looks much nicer than the old brass doorknob that we had in this door. The mechanism feels heavy, & sturdy, & works perfectly. I would recommend this especially if you have friends, or family that you want to be able to come and go with out having to get a spare key. The code to lock, & unlock the lock, is reprogramable to allow a temporary code for family or a contractor to come and go as needed, & then reset back to your normal lock code for yourself when the guest has left, or contractor, is done and you want to set it back to your original code.

Works great, auto lock works, easy install, nice finish, keyed to work with my old key easily. Better then schlage

Excellent product used it to replace a cheaper digital lock and the quality is excellent loved the easy installation and the long battery life.

Easy to install, easy to set the code. Installs just like any other door knob, but with a component wire to slide through the knob hole and connect to the back side. I like the auto lock feature and the fact that it can easily be turned off by simply flipping the switch on the inside of the door. This is the 2nd one I've purchased. The battery seems to last quite a while, but as in everything, it will die one day! There is a set of keys for it, for that purpose. Just make sure your keys are never locked in the room!! The beep is loud when putting in the code, which can be annoying, especially at night when people are sleeping. I guess if the purpose were to hear if someone unauthorized was going into a locked room, that would come in handy... I do wish there was a feature to turn off the beep!! It should be optional!

The door lock was very easy to install. Have only used it for a day but it looks great, was easy to program and is working well.

This is my 5th house I've converted to Kwikset SmartKey. This lock 955 is the first with a keypad. It would have been easier with another hand as I'm right handed and the screws were where my left hand was holding the interior side in place and the extra weight made it a little awkward! Next house I'll make sure the door swings the correct way so I won't have that problem. I will soon rekey to my current house key. As I was getting ready to do it I noticed that I now need to remove the lever handle that I just put on and had fought a little bit with. I just wasn't up to doing that. It takes about a minute to rekey and it will take me probably 5 minutes to take off and then replace the lever handle. This is my first lever handle and I don't know why it has to come off to rekey. The lock works great, the key code works too. I wrote my key code down several places and the directions seem to be pretty clear on how to delete the codes and add additional codes. I have never started from a new door needing to drill the holes and I never will. That's what brothers are for.I just ordered a SmartKey deadbolt so later this week I'll install it. My lever is satin chrome and the deadbolt is a satin nickel so I'm guessing it'll be a little different color but satin chrome wasn't an option for the style I chose.I opted to keypad the lever handle so that when I'm making multiple trips to my car I can use the passage feature (won't auto lock) and when I leave for a short period of time I'll use the auto lock. There's a third feature "disable passage" that does as it says and passage isn't an option, ie, public restroom, you'll need a key or code every time.

Simple keyless door lock. Good quality, simple program. I will buy again

Overall, this seems to be a great product. I have had Kwikset locks before and this one is no different, very sturdy, easy to install and easy to set up.My frustration with this lock is that it stopped working after about 90 days (and just outside of the warranty).The lock is installed on an outside steel door in a storage building and I am not there all the time. After installing it worked great and allowed me to not have to worry about having my keys with me when I get to the building. The lock worked great for the first few months but during one of my visits, the lock made a strange, repetitive beeping noise that made me think the battery was draining. A bit shot on the life span in my opinion but sometimes it happens. My next time to the building, the lock no longer worked, and I replaced the battery with a brand new, unopened 9V. Unfortunately, that apparently was not the problem as the keypad still does not work. I have been on the manufacturer website and have attempted to request support but have not had luck thus far.Fortunately, the key still works so I am not completely locked out, but having a non-functioning keypad defeats the purpose of a keyless lock.I REALLY want to like this lock as it seems well made, but until I have better luck in getting some technical support, I will continue to be slightly frustrated.I will close with, 90 days seems to be a very short warranty period on a product of this type.
