    Auto lock is good but not from this product. Battery drains very quick and changed batteries more than 5 times in last 5 months. Finger print marks has been another problem on the touch screen. I didn’t expect the product to be this bad. I had used other auto lock systems, they were good.

      Hello Venkat,

      We're happy to help you with this! Please try the steps in this link: https://www.kwikset.com/support/answers/how-can-i-extend-the-battery-life-of-my-smart-lock

      For the touchscreen fingerprint, you can enable SecureScreen, which displays random digits before you enter a user code to unlock the door. This feature ensures there are fingerprints on all digits so that codes cannot be identified by examining the touchscreen for fingerprints. If desired, this feature can be disabled using the Kwikset app.

      Thank you,
      Kwikset kwikset

    Exactly what we wanted. Had Best Buy do the installation. The young man who came to our house with the product was very professional and completely capable. Did a great job, left the house as clean as he found it. Great experience!

    James did a fantastic job. He worked on the lock till it was working perfectly. We were very happy with him and would require any time. Great job.

    I never liked how it made a loud grinding noise when locking and unlocking. Plus, it takes a few seconds longer to lock or unlock versus the older smart lock versions. After a few months, it started having technical issues, and we had to return it. Given the high price tag, you’d expect better quality.

    I put in 3 of these. I couldn't reliably get in because the batteries kept draining so fast. I replaced all 3 with another brand that has consistently worked better and I haven't had to replace batteries (yet).
