    Perfect Deadbolt

    The Wi-Fi keypad quickset deadbolt works fantastic! You can unlock it with a key or assign codes to different users. The key pad buttons are traditional buttons so don't have to worry about the sun hitting a touch screen pad. If I'm laying in bed and forget to lock it I can use the app to lock it or let someone in when I'm not home. It's a great lock!

    Good Electronic Deadbolt Lock

    It does,the job well, with several handy features. We like the triple unlock options: key, code and app. Using the app to unlock is handy when your hands are full. The code is handy for the kid's or visitor's access, with a unique code for each. The app was just updated to reduce the number of notifications by allowing better tailoring of the ones you want instead of just ALL. It is a bit noisey when it cycles, so not for quiet entry or exit. It would gst 5 stars if quieter. The batteries don't last long in our busy household but are easy to replace. It takes standard alkaline AA batteries only which can be the longevity issue, and the manual states specifically to NOT use Lithium or Rechargeable batteries (something to do with battery voltage per online).

    I installed this in a rental condo to allow renters and cleaning crew simple access. Overall it went in easily. Fortunately the door was well mounted so the slide worked easily the first time. The installation app is ok, not great. I got it up and working in a couple of hours. I ran into one really big issue that is unique to my setup. My wireless is community supplied and I have to know the MAC address to load it into the app before I can connect. Most devices have it either printed on the device or have it displayed on the installation app ( thank you nest!) this device does not. So right now I don’t have remote access to the device. I think I have a work around to get it, but have not had a chance to do it (one website recommended connecting to an intermediary laptop that was already connected to the wireless to get to the MAC address using a network analyzing app)

    I almost didn't buy this because people were complaining about battery life, well I havent had no issues with that I had it for a month and a half and batteries are still at 90%. The only tiny minor which I wouldn't call it an issue is the auto location unlock, sometimes it doesn't unlock but it could be because my phone automatically connects to my wifi when I parked on my driveway anyways, im happy with this lock and i definitely recommend also if you purchase this lock I recommend you to get a good brand batteries and not use the ones that come with the lock like I did. Maybe that's the reason of the bad reviews. Im happy and will purchase again.

    Great Lock from a Company You Can Trust for Locks

    Installation was easy. It works great. It doesnt randomly lock itself while open and damage our door area like the two previous locks we bought from Yale/Nest and August. I love the fact that there is a keyed entry option and this is a company that actually makes physical door locks. Our prior two were from less experienced companies and had no physical unlock mechanism. We literally had to drill them off the door when they failed.

    Great Wifi Smart Dead Bolt Lock

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Seems like the trend moving electronic screens to enter codes on smart locks (instead of actual number keys). I like the actual keys better for some reason. Also, the fact that you can use a physical key to open is a plus. Even more, it uses Kwikset's rekey technology. Easy to install.

    I loved the concept of opening the door with my phone and just a passcode. However, the battery life is terrible. To open the door with Wi-Fi is spotty at best. I wish it worked a bit better and the batteries lasted longer. Otherwise it works alright.

    Purchased the much more expensive yale one first. Was a no go. Had a kwik one for a good 10 years that gave out but was perfect for long time. So that is why i chose this one. So glad. Works so precise every time. Very easy. Very wuick to u lovk w phone if you want. Lets me know when unlocked/locked. Also i wanted option for key even though i never tou h my keys fir anything.

    Wasted Batteries

    Killed 3 sets of 4 batteries within 60 days. I followed the instructions on what to do if it was wasting batteries, and it did not solve the problem. Fortunately my membership allowed me to return it after giving it a long enough chance before I figured out it was not worth it. The motor that closes the bolt was also much louder than my Utec. Too bad Best Buy doesn't carry that brand.

    • Brand response from Kwikset
      Posted .

      Hello EDZ99,

      The batteries can drain quicker than expected due to your lock's installation, router type, and distance from the lock. Use only name-brand alkaline batteries and please do not use lithium and rechargeable batteries. Check that the door is properly aligned and the cable is routed and stored correctly. Resistance to both locking and unlocking because of door misalignment will reduce both motor and battery life. Make sure that the lock has a strong Wi-Fi connection with the router. Call our Support Team at 1-800-327-5625 for additional help if needed.

      Thank you,
      Kwikset kwikset

    I love these locks. I've installed several on various houses. They work very well as long you as spend the time to get things aligned up so there absolutely no drag of any kind. This can often mean re-adjusting the door frame striker plate. I really like the smartkey capability. It makes it easy to re-key all the locks to match and use the same key. The kwikset app can be finicky and a bit confusing to get paired and working at first and getting the keycodes stored in the lock, But after that, it is very easy to use for normal use.
