All-Weather Double Keypad Mechanical Keyless Door Lock (Satin Chrome)

The product is solid. i tried all the different features of the pad. The thing works like a charm. I checked everything out. It's good product for what I need because it is waterproof or weather proof, required little or no maintenance and its double sided so nobody can cheat and try to get in.The thing is Heavy Duty. Mine came with two sizes and the screws, so one for a shorter one and one for a longer one.Either way, if you need to secure your outside fense door, don't use a double sided lock, buy this.Your lock can be compromised, and it will jam and you need a key. If someone makes a duplicate, you are compromised.This, you just change the code. If you have multi unit house, have the same code but tell them in a different sequence, so they will never know. YOu don't want tenants to think that all codes are the same. If you change it they will think it only affects their unit.I just need to install it into the metal gate.Just as a mock up, i did put it on a wood wall, it was perfect. just make sure you hit clear before you start again.

This is a great product. It’s a knockoff of the original design which costs 3x as much , but is just as functional.I have a wrought iron gate, and needed a latch that had a keypad on both sides so folks can’t just reach through and open the gate from the inside handle.This is basically the only solution that provides that, and it does it very well and without batteries EO you don’t get locked out.I’d recommend injecting some grease into the unit to make sure it doesn’t bind, other than that it’s very solid.

This fit over the existing holes in our metal gate for our pool. We had to trim the cam shaft at some of the pre-weakened break points to fit the shorter depth of the metal gate (as opposed to a door). I'm not sure it broke perfectly because now we can only open the gate by turning the handle towards the lock (so depending on which side you are on, you turn it the opposite way). One time it got really stuck, but I reached through and hit the Clear button on both side at the same time while jiggling it and it all popped free to clear again. After that we have had no issues. I like the fact that it auto locks every time the gate closes (our gate is spring loaded to close), so I don't have to worry about kids wandering in and wondering if I locked it or not. I also like the fact that there are no batteries so I never have to worry about no being able to get in if it goes dead. It is all mechanical and you can only "program it" by moving a screw driver to physically move which numbers you want for your code. Once the lock is assembled, you can't modify the code. So you have to be on the inside to dissasemble the lock to re-program it. We have a gate, so theoretically they could reach through unscrew it and reprogram or break in, but the fence is only 6 feet high (legal height for a swimming pool), so I figured if a burgler really wanted to get in, they'd just hop the fence. This is mainly for safety for children. Ours also arrived with a manufacturing defect (see photo) where they drilled through when they were milling the screw countersync. We might get some spiders living in there now... but oh well, we still like it!Here are the answers to some of the questions I had:1) The order of the numbers does NOT matter. You can also choose any length of code you want (one button or every button)2) There are NO batteries, this is a purely mechanical lock3) It auto locks EVERY time the door closes. You can not disengage the lock or close the door without locking it. (We just use a chair to prop the gate open if we want to go back and forth. You could also tape down the striker bar so it wouldn't latch for a temporary party or something.4) It fits over the handle plus deadbolt holes on our existing gate.5) It fits a variety of depths of gates and solid doors as the cam shaft can be broken to fit different depths.6) It comes with a little weather stripping gasket, but I'm not sure if that will prevent eventual rust - haven't had it long enough yet.7) It only takes about 10-15 min to install, but if I remember correctly, the instructions were extremely curt.8) It comes with it's own mini screw driver to set the code. (turning a screw 90 degrees for on or off for each button)9) If you mess up the code, you press the clear button to reset all mechanical pieces.10) There are buttons for the code going both in and out, so you need to know the code going either way.11) There is no "deadbolt" key option if you forget the code.12) You have to unscrew the lock form the door and disassemble to change the code.13) You cannot just reach through to unlock it because the other side requires a code too.It looks great and we love it!Photos:1) inside side (with screw and funky cutout of know to access bottom screw)2) Manufacturing defect where there's a hole in the screw countersync that goes all the way through.3) Outside of gate, no screws4) View from the top. at lease with our gate, you can't jimmy it open5) another viewi from top showing buttons on both sides6) shows where old knob went (you can see old outline)7) The gate from the side to show only one striber bar (we cshould probably close up the old deadbolt hole.8) latch side of gate.

I installed this lock just about 9 years ago. This lock worked without a problem until one day it didn't. I took it apart and it was broken, and I could not repair it.I looked in my Amazon purchases and saw I had ordered it in 2015 and ordered another, identical to the 1st lock.This new lock had a sticking number 1 key, so I just oiled it and worked with the keypad and removed the(tightness) out of it and it now works perfectly.If this new lock works as well as the old one did, I will be elated. This lock is installed on an entrance gate that is used 30 times a day to enter and exit the yard by everyone.The price has inflated over the years, but what hasn't?

Hmm. I forgot to post this review but it’s now been installed for 2 months & one side of keypad stopped working. That means I have to reach through the gate bars to enter code from other side. I would not be able to get out if I had a sold gate door so hoping the 1 year warranty is honored.Original review: Good price point for a double keypad, knob isn’t very easy to turn - feels like fighting a strong spring. I can only hope that’s so it will last many years. Would have preferred a latch handle. Also the letters/buttons can be difficult to press in & I have serious doubts about using this outdoors in areas that have cold snowy/icy winters.As I first stated I like the price but obviously get what you pay for- very basic with combination can be inputted in any order other than C (clear) having to be first. That greatly reduces the security if someone’s trying to figure out the code, even with 5 keys after the C.
