Review on πŸ”’ Satin Nickel Amazon Basics Single Cylinder Deadbolt by Robert Hunter

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Didn't fit the smart lock as needed

I was certainly drawn to the price of Revain Basics but it didn't work out in the end. The cam rod just couldn't rotate the bolt smoothly. I checked the cam slot with a screwdriver and the bolt turned perfectly. But when I tried to use the turntable to get the bolt in position, it just wouldn't move without effort. I bought this to install a smart lock and when the deadbolt doesn't turn smoothly the smart lock just gives up and says the lock is stuck rendering the whole setup unusable. I could have spent $11 on a better branded bar which I had to buy instead. Dissatisfied. 🀨

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Obsolete model
