Kwikset 99140-024 SmartCode 914 Traditional Smart Lock Keypad Electronic Deadbolt Door Lock with SmartKey Security and Z-Wave Plus, Venetian Bronze

If you have a door with a deadbolt that has plenty of traffic this is the deadbolt for you. Personal Experience: My family uses our man door on the side of our house for nearly everything, from walking the dog to going out back to taking out the trash it is the most heavily trafficked doorway. After a few instances where I was taking late night walks with the dogs and didn't want to fumble with keys in below freezing temperatures I decided to upgrade to this Z-Wave Deadbolt. Since I installed the deadbolt I have been extremely pleased with its performance. The electronic locking and unlocking features are so simple my 5/yo is able to lock/unlock while I get the dogs ready or cleaned up before going on a walk or into the garage. I also have a home hub which took less time to recognize the device than I spent physically installing the deadbolt (always a win). Having the deadbolt connect to my SmartThings Hub quickly was a huge plus because I hate spending tons of time setting up electronics that should be simple. One of the biggest benefits (IMHO) of connecting the deadbolt to my SmartThings is that I get notifications if the deadbolt is left open longer than an hour. I can also check the status of the lock before I go to bed, because if you are like me, you lay in bed unable to sleep and try to remember if you locked to door until you drag your butt out of bed to check. This unit does use batteries so just be aware that you are going to change them based on your habits, if you use the electronic features a lot you will need to swap out batteries more often. If I get 6 months of battery life based on the amount of traffic I expect than I am very pleased. Finally was the aesthetics of the product is in line with the door knob that I had so the new deadbolt did not look out of place after everything was completed. Pros: Easy to install if replacing and existing deadbolt of the same size Numbers and lock symbol are easy to read and push Connecting to SmartThings was simple and fast (and by fast I mean less than a minute) Z-Wave Plus range and response is excellent Color scheme matched the existing knobs/deadbolts I have Cons: Battery life can drained if used constantly (I see this as cost of having electronic deadbolt but being objective)

I love this lock! It set up to my security system really easily. It works well, connects to my phone. Easy to lock and unlock. Highly recommend.

Solidly made product. This was a replacement for an older combination deadbolt that had failed. The brass finish is bright and flawless, and comes with a lifetime warranty. The electronics & mechanism is covered for 1 year. Install is easy. if you have ever installed a dead bolt before, you will have no issue with this. It runs on 4 standard AA batteries, and they can be installed or replaced without having to take the lock apart. The key pad buttons are easy to see and backlit. Because its not a touch pad, finger prints don't give your code away. All motors and moving parts are on the inside so its not adversely effected by cold weather. Set up is easy, and can be programed as stand alone or with a hub. If you plan to use the lock with Alexa or the phone app you will need to get a HUB that supports Z-wave, but that can be added later on. with the hub it supports both locking and unlocking. Unlocking is secured with a household pass code. Personal codes that are entered to unlock are recorded with a time stamp in the hub so you can tell who comes in and when. Overall I a very pleased with this purchase. I plan on getting more for other entry doors

It was easy to install in place of an existing standard deadbolt with the exception of the SmartKey functionality. It didn't work the first time around and it locked the key-way so that neither the key that came with it nor the previous key I was trying to match worked. The keypad codes worked fine until I could get back to the keying problem, however. I ordered the SmartKey Cradle and had to take the lock back off the door in order to correct the problem (which it did.) It works fine now with my old key and with the keypad codes. It's a quality lock and works well with my Wink hub. Except for the SmartKey glitch, it was easy to install. I highly recommend it.

I'm not sure why touch screen is an option on this rating thing since it doesn't have a touch screen it has a Key pad? The key pad works much better than the touch screen, I had no issues hooking it up to the hub of my house and Alexa. It works great and seems less temperamental than the touch pad style I had tried that only lasted like two years. I'm hoping this one will last much longer. I love that i can check the battery life thru the hub too. That's a great feature. I just wish I could add and change codes thru the hub. If you can do that I haven't figured that out yet.

Great lock. Replaced older version same brand 888 that eventually wore out. Installed in 20 min no problem. Did have a time with getting it setup via Vivint alarm system. In the future, Suggest before installing the back part of lock to get the ZWave connection recognized by the Vivint keypad first. After some of the issues with the setup and what I learned from this install, this is what I would do next time for a VIVINT system. Call Vivint and get tech help to get into the Installer Toolbox screen - this is where you add or remove ZWave devices. Remove the old lock from the system first. Then take the back half of the new lock with the battery pack inserted up next to the Vivint keypad and add the new lock. I had to reboot my keypad after removing the original lock before it would recognize and add the new lock. Overall great lock and the last Kwikset lasted 12 years.

I installed two of these ten months ago and they've worked like a champ for us. Not only are they keyless, meaning we can go for a walk without our keys and get back in using the code, but they also integrate with our alarm.com home automation system. I can check on and lock or unlock the doors from anywhere in the world using my phone, and the system announces whenever it's locked or unlocked. They've proven to work really well so far and the batteries are still going strong - the one we use the most at y0% and the other at 80% as I type.
