You SAVED me! I am a woman who is afraid of a lightbulb change. I did it. Thanks to you

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

Awesome nice job! 😊Thanks for letting me know.

[@allysonmills7790]

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!

Hey great job!! I’m glad it helped thank you so much for letting me know!

[@Ranoosh1971]

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 :)

[@baconbutty1131]

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 😊🇨🇦

One thing I couldn't figure out was the Emergency key. It didn't lock/unlock dead bolt. Maybe if I disconnect the battery?

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??

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

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.

Thank you for the demonstration. The music playing in the background was very distracting. It was a bit difficult to hear you in the video.

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

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

[@mediamamachick]

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?

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

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.

[@mmerriman4995]

Thanks!

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

[@loiskinman9838]

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.

[@saychao22]

What should I be looking for if both outside and inside are not flush against the door when I screw them together?

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

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.

[@lytnin88]

If the door has only a locking knob, can that be replaced with the keypad deadbolt keyless entry? Would it fit in the hole?

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

Yes they make one that’s just for one hole. Here’s an example one. www.build.com/schlage-fe575-cam-acc/s512014

[@mrrobvs]

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.

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

Yeah it takes a few seconds.

Might have to adjust the strike plate on your knob then so it pulls in tighter.

How long does the battery last Because I tightened up the back screws and now they won’t back out

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

Yikes. They can last a year or 2 depends how much you use them.

[@cheechchickens1854]

My lock only locks and unlocks on the second attempt at both. Did I install wrong or just a defect?

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

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.

[@mnyseth]

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?

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

Too close together to fit the deadbolt above the knob?

[@mnyseth]

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 😍

the bore hole size is too small. what bore size is required? is there another option with keypad that fits 1.5 inch hole?

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

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.

[@MrCotico]

Hi! I have a door with 70mm thickness (2" 3/4) It is compatible?

[@MrCotico]

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

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

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.

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

Interesting. Seems like they’d all be the same.

[@adobo1976]

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.

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

They do have a decent warrant I would try contacting them first. I’ve had them replace one before for the same reason.

[@SmartEasyDIYer]

Yes sometimes doors don’t do that I’m not sure why. You have to make it fit.

Why does the outside lock just spin freely? How do I correct this?

One thing to check if you take it apart the flat pin type piece that is in the outside section and sticks in through the deadbolt piece can sometime pop loose in there. I’ve had that happen before and just have to re-insert it.
