    For anyone who had no luck after trying this…..I found another solution from someone else’s video. You have to enter the master code, let the light blink orange three times, push the top Schlage button once, then the number 7. It changes the main settings so that this isn’t allowed anymore. It fixed it for me!

    I lost my programming code so I had to take apart the lock to retrieve the code from the plate on the key pad. After working on it for over an hour and watching two different videos, still not able to reinstall the lock. Five minutes into your video you had identified the problem, I corrected it and I now I not only have the programming code but a fully functioning keyless lock!!! THANK YOU !!!!!

    My daughter came home 2 days after I installed the new Schlage Camelot Electronic Keypad, and she said when she hit the Schlage button to illuminate the keys, it unlocked. When she told me, I almost didn't believe her thinking that wasn't even possible. I then found your video and had it fixed in minutes. Very fortunate folks like you make these videos to help guys like me. Cheers! ☕

    @chrishunter98 3 года назад +2

    This kind of fixed my issue. It had the same symptoms as you described, but when I took it apart the cam was in the correct vertical position. I ended up unplugging the battery and re-plugging it in and it fixed the issue of the Schlage button unlocking the door. Weird. But this video helped me to troubleshoot the issue. I'm guessing the contacts on the battery just weren't all the way in or something. Not sure. BUT, I'll be replacing the battery today to make sure this isn't an issue moving forward. Thanks for the video!

    Thanks for the video, we definitely installed the lock correctly the first time but this saved us from buying a new lock (its been working for almost a year and then developed this problem). I think the cam gets loose after a while of the door shutting and jiggling the lock. This is the second schlag we've had this happen to unfortunately, and after a long time of it working properly.

  • @lsatenstein
    @lsatenstein 3 года назад +4

    I bought three of these, and two of the locks functioned well for 3 years. Just a month beyond the guarantee the third gave up, with a siimilar problem to what you are describing.
    The failure -- the disconnect of the front knob did not occur, presenting the problem you are describing. The bolt in and the tab face down did not free the bar that goes up and down inside the lock.
    Further, after three years (with fresh battery), the internal J shaped mechanism appears stuck in the up position, meaning the front knob will always be engaged.
    My gripe: Maintenance should not require a triple dismantling of the lock to reach the mechanism. In your video, you showed phiips screws to hold the flat plate to the front assembly. On our locks the inner plate is held with torx screws, and the fifth screw had the head sheared, so the lock cannot be dismantled without damage.
    The lock was installed onto a basement door, that faces west. Location, Montreal, Canada.
    After 2.5years, facing the sun,m the film plastic over the buttons split. exposing the lettering to direct sunlight.
    This lock was underused. About twice a day for five days per week (person left for work, returned from work) and only for 6 months per year. that is really about 600 open/closes max.
    Yes, I like the concept, but not the mechanical design, I think that Schlage has to do better.
    We need an optional shroud to protect the buttons from the 8hrs/day direct sunlight, and Schlage needs to have a policy of fast exchange/replacement of the plasticised keypad and the locking mechanism. We cannot leave the home unprotected.
    A motorized lock in our situation is not practical as when the batteries fail, there is no way to get into the premises to retrieve the keys.
    What I would like is a lock that provides fast easy cylinder replacement with easy physical key replacement. The cylinder should allow for master key and end-user key.

    I had to replace one, you entered the code and you would get the green light but it would not unlock. Had it for several years, replaced with another haven't had any issues. I would recommend that people that change codes often use the #6 option rather than the #2. The #6 deletes all the user codes entered.

    Our lock had the same problem but with a different cause: As our cam was already in the correct position, we disassembled the lock (by taking off the colored plate) and found that one end of the leaf spring was installed incorrectly at the factory. This caused the contacts to be always "on", regardless of the position of the cam. Once the spring was back in its proper place, the lock worked as intended.

    My lock worked for years and I live on a quiet street and can audibly hear the engagement. I have installed a handful of these locks and never had a problem. I have also used the Schlage button to light the key pad for about 4 months of the year every night for years at least once a night and it never energized when pressed. That is until now. I am not a person who misses things like that.
    I no longer trust this lock or line of locks at all.
    Edit: The issue is intermittent. It did it a few more times and then it stopped. Without dissecting it, I can only surmise the cam position sensor is beginning to fail. It behaves as if the lock is retracted when in fact it’s extended, and then it doesn’t...

    Mine was doing this and was installed correctly. I just needed a new battery. I installed a new battery and it seems to take a few minutes to go back to normal functioning. It bothers me somewhat that a weak battery would cause this behavior. I would expect the appropriate response would be to stop unlocking. That might not be so great if you only had one way in.

  • @carolineevail
    @carolineevail 3 года назад +1

    Thanks for the video, Robert! Any insight as to why this exact issue would be happening when the lock is installed correctly, as you described? To clarify, the lock is installed with the deadbolt retracted and the cam arrow pointed down, however, I'm still able to unlock the door from the outside with just the Schlage button.

    • @carolineevail
      @carolineevail 3 года назад +1

      I think I may have fixed it. I believe our Lock & Leave feature was malfunctioning for some reason. My steps for success below:
      1. Factory reset the lock with your "How to Reset a Schlage Electronic Deadbolt BE365" video (ruclips.net/video/lAsLBmbDrRQ/видео.html). This engaged all factory settings, to include enabling the Lock & Leave feature by default. At this point, I was still able to lock and unlock the door from the outside with just the Schlage button and without entering user codes.
      2. I then used the steps provided by Schlage in my user manual to disable the Lock & Leave feature (will include steps below).
      3. With the Lock & Leave feature now disabled, I ensured my deadbolt was in a retracted position with the cam arrow pointed down/in a vertical position, as described in this video, then re-enabled the Lock & Leave feature. I confirmed I was then only able to unlock the deadbolt from the outside with a user code, and could utilize the Schlage button to lock the deadbolt. I also confirmed the Schlage button alone would not allow the deadbolt to be unlocked.
      HOW TO ENABLE/DISABLE LOCK & LEAVE FUNCTION ON SCHLAGE BE365:
      1. Enter your Programming Code (six numbers). Wait for the SCHLAGE button to blink orange 3 times and beep 3 times.
      2. Press the SCHLAGE button. The keypad will turn blue.
      3. Press 7. The SCHLAGE button will blink green 1 time and beep 1 time to indicate the Lock & Leave function has been successfully changed.

    • @carolineevail
      @carolineevail 3 года назад

      Help, Robert! After getting the BE365 to work correctly with all I did above, I'm now back to a state where the SCHLAGE button will both lock and unlock the deadbolt when Lock & Leave is enabled. When Lock & Leave is disabled, I'm unable to lock the deadbolt with the SCHLAGE button when leaving (as expected with the feature disabled), but I'm still able to unlock the deadbolt with the SCHLAGE button and no user code. I'm at a total loss. My results seem to be totally inconsistent.

    • @LocksmithRecommended
      @LocksmithRecommended  3 года назад +1

    For those of you who say that this fix didn't work and you had to disable the Schlage button via the programming mode 7 option, let me share my experience.
    TLDR; One of the screws may be in the way of the cam's rotation.
    I was very careful to install it correctly, and it was installed correctly. I had the same issue as described in the video. I also found it odd that the bolt did not stick out very far, but just wrote it off as the way it is. I double checked my installation after watching this video and I had, in fact, installed it correctly.
    Looking at it again, the cam that closes the limit switch on mine was not able to rotate to disengage the switch when locking because of one of the screw heads. I had to take one of the screws out to allow the cam to rotate fully. I don't know how I ended up with the wrong screws, but the screws I have do not recess in the holes like the ones at 3:07. Once I removed that screw the cam was able to fully rotate. The bolt was also able to fully extend as well, which alleviated my prior concern about the short bolt.
