Practical short-term locking technique

This lock worked perfectly from January 2016 to April 2018 and has had many problems since. We used it in conjunction with the Wink Hub. Batteries are discharged approximately every 3 months, with or without frequent use. Now the keyboard is dead and we've tried every possible fix without a factory reset or Schlage support. I tried calling Schlage but couldn't get anyone to help. I'm waiting to see if they reply to the email I sent with instructions on how to get it working again. I'm not 100%…

  • Good product for the price

Easy lever replacement for our previous front door handle kit

My wife recently asked me to replace all round door handles in our new home with levers for easier operation.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons

A minor issue noted by another reviewer is that the 'locking' portion of the post is detached from the 'spindle'. " that extends from the outside thumb latch to the…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Easy serviceability
