Kwikset Powerbolt 250 10-Button Keypad Matte Black Transitional Electronic Deadbolt Door Lock, Featuring Convenient keyless Entry, Customizable User Codes and auto Locking

I have two of these deadbolts, & two of the keypad door locks. They are dependable, easy to install, & use.Even if the battery dies, they can be locked, & unlocked with with a key. This deadbolt, can also be re-keyed for additional security. I originally purchased this to allow a visiting family member to come & go without having to issue them a key. Another great feature is you can have different combinations for different purposes; one can be issued to a guest, another can be given to a contractor, & one for yourself. At any point, any, or all, combination(s) can be deleted, or reset to another combination.The instructions that come with this are easy to understand, and make the installation a breeze.It is very easy to add your own code for this deadbolt.It can also have a time delay lock feature so after you close the door & it will automatically lock the deadbolt.All features are easy to use, & setup. I would recommend these to anyone for their entry doors.These are reasonably priced, & dependable.I would recommend these to anyone who wants to have the ability to give a temporary code to a guest, or contractor while retaining your own code combination.The batteries seem to last a long time, especially since there are four “AA” batteries used for this deadbolt.It’s not only functional, but it looks appealing on our door. The pictures I have included show additional door hardware that is not included. This kit includes the deadbolt itself with a battery compartment, @ a keypad, section. It also includes all the necessary hardware to install this on your door. My installation was easy because I was replacing an existing deadbolt.I have included a picture that shows the indoor door knob, that is NOT INCLUDED, with this deadbolt. I added this just to show that it can be used with an optional door knob.

I am very impressed with this lock. I know kwickset are supposedly garbage licks but this is great for my needs.I put this on a tiny house door so we could easily access it without a key. Installation took maybe 20 minutes and that includes rekeying it to my old key.It works great and I am thinking of getting another for my shed.The rekeying part was really cool and took a few minutes. Only because I could not believe how easy it was.

Very satisfiedI have a Kennel facility and have been using the quickset Smart code door levers and decided on one of my doors that’s a primary to install the code deadbolt version in conjunction with the code lever surprisingly both are able to be used on the door with factory spacing between the holes for the deadbolt and holes for the door knob highly recommend Will definitely do this on more doorsInstallation was very easy set up was very easy and it is very well-made. I do not use the autolock feature on the deadbolt, but I do on my lever, but when I use the quickset button to lock the door on the outside, it bolts flawlessly. Works great weight is standard but well built.

We bought three of these after staying at an airbnb a month ago. We loved it so much we bought one for all our doors. Two worked fine, one didn't work correctly. Of the two that worked, they were easy to install, easy to program and they are so easy to use. It was also easy to rekey one to the other, so we only need one key, just in case the battery dies or it malfunctions. Anyway, a nice upgrade to our old locks, almost like we're in the 21 century. Only got 4 stars because we had to send one back.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Bought this model because my current locks are all Kwikset, making rekeying easy. Also I now have a no-key-needed vehicle (card in my wallet). Now, I don't have to carry a house key either. I like the look of the touch pad models, but I use one frequently and find that it's harder to operate in the dark. It's especially hard to find the first number, because the lock is dark until you press on the pad - "oops, wrong number again!" This lock is between my garage and utility room. Don't care whether it matches the rest of my door hardware exactly. Easy to install, even easier to program and it has many features I don't need (like automatic locking and 25 user codes), but you may find them useful. One note on rekeying the lock. Kwikset's instructions are good, except I've never been able to get the rekeying tool into the rekeying slot as far as the instructions indicate. So, regardless of whether that tool is in as far as instructed, if you have the original key in the right position and, at the appropriate step in the instructions you can remove the old key, your ready to proceed with the new key. Comment on some of the negative reviews: The bolt and the striker plate on the door handle have to position this electronic deadbolt lock and striker plate so they engage smoothly, with little to no drag. I don't think this battery-powered lock would last long term in a situation where the bolt has to fight its way into and out of the striker opening. Too high a load; something will eventually fry. In my case, I corrected just that situation before installation (found a stripped and cracked screw hole in the door frame). Fixing that takes a small amount of know-how but, if you're replacing a smooth-operating deadbolt, this is an easy task.

I really enjoy using this! I found it very easy to install. Everything fits perfectly into the door hole and it looks like it could last a long time. Programming the codes was very easy, and I’m glad I’m able to have my codes from 4-8 digits. I was also able to change the keys it came with the box to my house keys so I can use either key or code. It was very cheap compared to other stores online. Would recommend if you want door security on a budget!

Easy to swap out and rekey. Purchased this to rekey new house. Does not come with batteries. Looks great and really convenient not having to carry keys.
