It took me just 10 minutes to install this lock thanks to your video! I was nervous about taking out the existing deadbolt and then being stuck if I couldn’t get the new lock in, but you made each step extremely easy to follow. Thank you!
You can't believe how much I was swearing trying to install this BEFORE I saw your video. Installing it while watching your video (several times) really, really helped and I appreciate your calm demeanor. Now I have a working lock, thanks to you!
Juan Gedeon bro, you and I both. Not handy man at all. Wife is all proud of me! Let’s just hope we never get locked out, otherwise, they’ll blame us no matter what.
Great video and prevented me from having to read the manual. Had to adjust the hole that the deadbolt went into but a little lipstick on there showed me where I needed to trim. Great video thanks for that!
Thank you so much for the instructions I got it today I needed a new keyless entry I was worried that after purchasing the kit , I will still call a locksmith company, but with your instructions I got this installed all by myself, very grateful to your step by step :)
Most excellent sir thank you. I'm a bit of a contractor and a handyman and I've installed seven or eight of these in the last 10 years and this quick reminder was very efficient and very very well done. I watch a lot of tips and have not seen a better video as far as efficiency and quality thank you very much sir you very well could have a career in producing this type of work. Cheers Bryan
Thanks for the video! I just bought my first house and am petrified because I don't know how to do anything, but you spoke clearly without fancy construction words, so I feel more confident!
UPDATE! I only had to change the numbered faceplate as the rest worked fine although the door handle was a bit weathered, it works OK. I had the number pad changed and replaced in 15 minutes thanks to your great tutorial. Changed the programming code for an easy reminder, my birthday, and changed the entry code. Only glitch was I forgot to disconnect the power cord and couldn't figure out why the unit wouldn't come apart. ARGH! I clued in after a minute or two and it came apart and went back together like a charm. All very easy. Thank you my friend! x 😊🇨🇦
You just saved me 140 bucks to install this thing. The previous lock already had a hole that perfectly fit the dead bolt to. However, the chiseling didn’t look that difficult to do, so I was willing to do that if necessary. Thank you a billion.
Thank you. There’s a few videos that I need to see if I can remove the music after the fact I think I can if I can do it correctly. Thanks for the feedback.
I failed to follow your instruction about the deadbolt part that inserted into the door that could be extended. I got it after watching your instruction again. Thank you for the very helpful info.
Thank you ! Works like a charm! Easy clear instructions. Only thing I left in place was the old strike plate so I didn't chisel out the door frame but it works, diff color but it works. One thing I couldn't figure out was the Emergency key. It didn't lock/unlock dead bolt. Maybe if I disconnect the battery?
I'm terrible at this kind of stuff particularly carving the holes in wood. I traced mine out with a pencil and used my dremel tool with a milling bit at high speed to mill out the holes for the plates. It worked very well.
Thank you for your guidance. I also was able install this keyless lock to my back door. Since it was sooooo easy, I want to add it to my front door, but I don't want two separate keys. How to I match the locks? Does that make sense? THank you!
You’re welcome sorry for the late response. I’m not sure if Schlag has any keto like or or if you’d have to have a locksmith to change the tumblers inside for you.
You’re welcome. Thanks for letting me know. I only experimented with a few and I regret doing that because the music sounded quiet to me, but after I had it all done, it was louder than I wanted, but then it was too late to change it
After paying $380 for installation (for 3 locks) PLUS the cost of the locks, this video will save me a lot of money. Thanks for the concise DIY with out a lot of fluffy chatter. Excellent! 🙂
I was getting so frustrated trying to line up the screw holes. No where on the instructions does it say the deadbolt latch is adjustable and needed to be centered. This is what the problem was every time I tries to line up the screws to the holes. Thanks to your video I adjusted to the proper length and installed it. Thanks for your video!
Hi, great video! Thanks. I can only engage the deadbolt by entering the code after I hit the Schlage button. I understand you are supposed to be able to lock it from the outside by simply hitting the Schlage button and turning the lock ...when I do this it just spins. Any advise please??
Thanks Pam. So it does engage when you do it the other way? Cuz I’ve had these before a few times when that little long flat part inside isn’t seated properly in the deadbolt and just pops out that’s why it wasn’t engaging for me but it wouldn’t engage either way. Sometimes I was able to pop it back in and get it to work and one time I had to actually return it and get a replacement because it wouldn’t stay. That was just one out of many that I’ve done so hopefully that’s not your case.
I didn't know a chessle could do that but also I'm gonna review using my speakers. This place has a small ight weight aircraft port near by. Also didn't know it is batteries operated next AA batteries still excist good luck . So thus far chissle and AA. I've installed regular dead bolts. Name of batteries didn't know chissles so precise ty cool
A disadvantage I found with this lock is locking it from the outside. If you hit the Schlage button and turn the lock to the locked position, you need to sit there and wait for several seconds before you can test to make sure everything is locked. Otherwise, if you go to unlock it....it will.
Spent two days painting and prepping my doors and bought these locks several days ago and keyed so the keys would match both and started to install (it says easy installation) and my door doesn’t have the indent on my door for the backplate
I do have to say - I figure out that the plate comes off and there is an adaptor for doors without the indent - The directions were so confusing on that on the paperwork
we just bought a schlage door handle and keypad deadbolt to replace weslock deadbolt for our front door and the 2 holes are too close together...what do you recommend?
Yes! It’s an older combo so the door knob & deadbolt holes are too close for the new keypad combo… is there hope? We were just going to return and rekey the door but really wanted a keypad combo. Is there a way to use without too much damage to the door? Thanks for answering 😍
Man that sounds defective to me unless the battery is low. Normally the ones I’ve seen never do that. I would exchange it for a new one if ur sure the battery is ok.
I had a similar model for several years but eventually the internal mechanism stopped catching in unlock mode. Looking to replace it but the other models I've tried only have the electronic deadbolt movement; which means the batteries only last about a month. In the type you're showing the batteries will last a year. I can't really find a good solution for replacement.
Hello what is the advantage of two strike plates? I ask because when changing the lock again, if you removed the wood to fit the deadbolt lock ( the first time) my thought is the next lock & strike plate installation will be ill fitted or perhaps to loose? I guess my question if you start with two strike plates you gotta stay with two strike plates. Is that right?
Yes it’s mainly for extra reinforcement for forced entry break in. You can always leave that one in and just replace the surface one. It should be quite similar to other brands size wise I believe.
The issue is not the deadbolt because I can set it up with standard measures. The issue is the thickness and mechanism inside de main gear that connects the two covers
Yes you can take it apart and see what the codes are inside on the sticker and use those. There’s also a master code on there so you can put new codes in.
Man sorry I don’t know. I’ve only encountered one bore size when installing these. Yours must be an old door or something? I think you can get a jig made for that with hole saw to make it bigger.
It sounds to me mainly like something isn’t quite together right. Like it’s binding up a little. It should pull right together once everything fits correctly.
Do you have the manual that came with it? If not you can download one from their website. I show how to program it using the master code at 8:09 in the video. You will need that same master code whether you add or delete a user code.
You SAVED me! I am a woman who is afraid of a lightbulb change. I did it. Thanks to you

! The instructions are much to be desired.
You’re welcome. I’m glad if it helped.
Thank you for posting your video!! I worked over 2 hours trying to install the key pad. Then I saw your video, I was set after watching your video.
You’re welcome I’m glad it was helpful!! Good job!
I’ve been hesitating on getting one, I thought it was going to be a big production installing. Now I’m confident I can install myself, thanks
Awesome go for it! You’re welcome.
Great video and prevented me from having to read the manual. Had to adjust the hole that the deadbolt went into but a little lipstick on there showed me where I needed to trim. Great video thanks for that!
Lipstick is a good idea! Thanks

That was a great video. Your explanation was very clear. I’m going to give it a try. I hope I don’t mess up the wood with the chisel.
Thanks. Yeah I hope it goes well. Just go slow. 😊

Thank you Andi!
Appreciate the crystal clear instructions. I'll make sure to get the same exact deadbolt when I close in a few weeks :).
Awesome! Thanks and good luck with your install!

Very helpful...demystified the process for me.
Awesome I’m glad! 👍👊 Thanks.
Great vid , 1 pointer , you can remove the weather strip and reinstall after you have chiseled out the deadbolt plate 👍
Thanks. Yes you could do that.
thanks it was very helpful

If the door has only a locking knob, can that be replaced with the keypad deadbolt keyless entry? Would it fit in the hole?
Yes they make one that’s just for one hole. Here’s an example one. www.build.com/schlage-fe575-cam-acc/s512014

I changed my entry door to an opposite side opening, can I change my lock around?
Yes you totally can.
How long does the battery last
Because I tightened up the back screws and now they won’t back out
Yikes. They can last a year or 2 depends how much you use them.
very clear instruction
Thank you!

Yeah it takes a few seconds.
How to align the door cuz I have to push my door in to open or close the door.
Thanks
Might have to adjust the strike plate on your knob then so it pulls in tighter.
Very nice tk you,
Thanks

Hi! I have a door with 70mm thickness (2" 3/4) It is compatible?
The issue is not the deadbolt because I can set it up with standard measures. The issue is the thickness and mechanism inside de main gear that connects the two covers
Oh sorry I thought this was on a different video. I’m not sure about that actually. Maybe you could ask Schlage to be sure.
I see snow. Does your work in the cold?
Yes it does!
Thank you
You’re welcome
Great job.....
Thanks Denny 👊
Awesome sir' thanks so much
You’re welcome! 😊
What do you do if you lost your keys and you didn’t add a code at the beginning. Can I open it at all
Yes you can take it apart and see what the codes are inside on the sticker and use those. There’s also a master code on there so you can put new codes in.
Excellent
Thanks!
the bore hole size is too small. what bore size is required? is there another option with keypad that fits 1.5 inch hole?
Man sorry I don’t know. I’ve only encountered one bore size when installing these. Yours must be an old door or something? I think you can get a jig made for that with hole saw to make it bigger.
How far does that bottom door knob have to be?
I’m not quite sure what you mean by how far?
@@SmartEasyDIYer the deadbolt i have on my door now sits about 3 inches above the door knob. Not sure if thats enough clearance.
What should I be looking for if both outside and inside are not flush against the door when I screw them together?
It sounds to me mainly like something isn’t quite together right. Like it’s binding up a little. It should pull right together once everything fits correctly.
Thank you.
You’re welcome!
cant you just reach threw the window and turn the lock? im curious
Not sure I understand?
I have the old dead bolt off and the schlage out and see that I have to cut the hole on the door bigger...
Interesting. Seems like they’d all be the same.
Thanks!
You’re welcome.
Thx!
You’re welcome!
Great !!!!
Thanks
Thanks help me out
You’re welcome!
Omg I get it now. I thought the dead bolt was going to retract on its own like another Schlage electronic door knob.🤦🤦🤦
It does retract on its own when you put in the code from outside.
@@SmartEasyDIYer what! Mine doesn't do that! I actually have to manually turn the knob! 😮😮😮
Oh my bad I was thinking of another one. Yeah mine is manual too.
I can’t enter the code. First it doesn’t let me put more than 4 digits so I can’t put the program code.
You need to get your master code and get into programming mode first
Bro, get rid of the music.
It makes it so hard to hear what your saying.
I appreciate the video, but the music makes it frustrating.
Yes, thank you for the input. I quit doing music after just doing a few to experiment.
How do I reset the passcode
Do you have the manual that came with it? If not you can download one from their website. I show how to program it using the master code at 8:09 in the video. You will need that same master code whether you add or delete a user code.
RTFM :)
