Mechanical Keyless Entry Combination Door Lock with Keypad, Silver | Right

This is an excellent mechanical keyless door lock. The construction is solid, durable, and feels like a quality piece of hardware. It has an elegant appearance that looks much nicer than many electronic keypad locks, and I really appreciate that it requires no batteries. That's a huge advantage—there are no batteries to replace and no worries about electronic failures. The only limitation to be aware of is the way the combination works. Your code cannot contain repeated characters. For example, codes like 2026 won't work because the number 2 repeats, and 007 won't work because 0 repeats. Instead, you create your code using unique characters from the available buttons (1–9 plus A and B). As long as you're comfortable choosing a code without repeating numbers or letters, it's a fantastic lock. It's well-built, reliable, attractive, and maintenance-free.

We needed to secure a door but didn't want to invest in a lot of money to do so. This is a unique lock, in that there is no battery that will need to be replaced. No key needed. There is no touch screen. The lock system is done with "jumpers" and you chose what numbers you want by moving the jumpers around. You cannot have duplicate numbers, though. The numbers do not have be compressed in any particular order, either. Then, to open, pull down on the handle. To lock the door, you pull up on the handle. You can lock the door from inside, by pulling up on the handle, too, so it will give you security. It has a nice finish and is nice and sturdy. It was easy enough to install. We had to drill some extra holes in a metal door, working around previous holes from other locks. Highly recommend!

These work great

This product seems very well made and sturdy. The face plates are fairly thick, real stainless steel I believe. Install was easy and intuitive. The locking mechanism seems very secure and simple, and seems sure to be reliable. Unlike more expensive simplex-type locks, the code can be entered in any order, which significantly reduces the number of possible codes, and therefore makes it somewhat easier to guess. But, how many thieves are just trying to randomly guess your code? Not many, I would think. And in terms of guessing based on your personal information (address, phone number, birthday, etc), those numbers come with an inherent code-order built in, so I’m not sure that method of guessing is really any more likely to work on this lock vs others. I did a bit of math, and if my calculations are correct, there are something like 495 possible 4 digit codes, and 950 ish possible 6 digit codes. The user can set up for a code anywhere from 1-6 digits, and there is no overt indication of how many digits are used. So, ultimately the number of possible combinations would be the the sum of possible codes for each number of digits. I’m not going to do the math, but just guessing maybe in the neighborhood of 2000-2500-ish total? That’s much fewer than the 10,000 possible combos for a four wheel padlock, for example, but enough that I don’t think anyone is going to be standing there randomly trying to guess your combo. Applying pressure to the handle, I don’t feel any difference in pressing the coded vs non coded buttons, which is promising, but I can’t say for sure weather it would be pickable by someone who knows what they’re doing. But in any case, I share the security concerns of other reviewers about using the lock to protect something of considerable value. However, my layperson’s impression is that it’s probably as or more secure than the cheapest off the shelf deadbolts and lock-sets, which may be fairly easily picked or bumped. And with this lock, you have the potential advantage of having something that is less familiar to would-be criminals. For a handle set, which even on a door with a tight jamb or cover plate could still easily be opened with the right shaped implement (or even credit card), I think the locking mechanism is more than adequate. The other main disadvantage is the fact that it requires additional holes drilled through the door for mounting. This means that the door would need patching if you ever switch to a different lock. For a nice door of any kind, I would recommend spending the extra money for either a simplex lock that mounts in a standard mounting hole, or one that you can be fairly sure you will be able to replace with the same model later on. But for a garage door, gate, shed, storage room, etc. it’s a really high quality product for 1/6th the price of a similar simplex lock from a major brand. And no batteries to worry about, or backup keys to loose. Excellent, for what it is.

It’s hard to beat the price and it has some good features but it also has some very bad ones too. The first good feature that also doubles as a bad one is that you can leave the code in so the door stays unlocked until you lift the handle. This is very convenient unless someone has access to the door while it’s unlocked. They can easily guess the code based on which keys are depressed so when the door is locked they still have access. This leads to the second issue. The code is not sequential. You can press the keys in any order. This severely lowers the amount of attempts needed to crack the code especially if you know how many digits it is. On the note of coding, it requires taking apart the lock and putting in blocks to establish the code. They give you 8 block and you have to keep the extra blocks in a bag somewhere in case you ever want to set to code to a different number than you previously had. So if you set a 4 digit code, you’re locked into having a 4 digit code forever if you ever lose the extra blocks. Same goes for if you set an 8 digit code. You’re forever locked into an 8 digit code due to the inner workings of the lock. Again, it’s a great product for a low price and there aren’t many coded locks with “infinite battery life” on the market right now but you get what you pay for.

I purchased this door lock hoping for a secure and reliable solution, but it has been nothing but trouble. Right out of the box, the lock mechanism was stiff and difficult to turn. After a few days of use, the lock started to jam, and now it takes multiple attempts just to get the key to turn.

Sort of a pain to have to drill 4 holes to mount the mechanism. Once mounted though It does work well. Creating an entry code with the little programming enabelers was easy. Paying attention to the instructions helped a lot. Punch in your entry code (minimum 5 characters) and the door stays unlocked all day long and just push down on the handle either inside or outside and bam-door is locked. Decent looking chrome and brushed look is okay and the handle feels solid and good in your hand. I did not want a battery driven door lock and this fits the bill with no batteries to have to change out. I'd purchase this device again.

Needed a tamper resistant solution that could not be disabled by a simple battery removal. It is good for low usage as it requires knowledge on how to relock it. You must pull up on the handle to insure it locks. But for a semi public pool bathroom and a condo gym it works well and the homeless can't take out the batteries and sleep inside.

Having this for a couple months on our front door through snow, rain, etc. we have had no issues. Not having a bettery and being mechanical means getting in the house is instant and you never run into the device getting stuck. very impressed for the price.

This lock is NOT for exterior , don't waste your money

Works the way it should, simple and robust. Installation is easy with their website video. Highly recommended.

No battery no keys needed..

Love the quality components - very sturdy, not flimsy at all. My contractors set this up - they said it was a little bit of a challenge, as the original standard door handle holes are larger and did not line up well with these holes (almost overlapped), thus decreasing the overall strength of the lock (ie could be kicked in more easily). However, I am using this for a rental on an interior door, so sufficient strength for my needs. Looks great, very convenient so far. Not looking forward to changing the combination, as apparently you have to remove the top plate and manually change the metal bits inside. However, a great buy so far.
