Unfortunately the model that I bought locks and I need to leave the key in so it can be opened without punching in the code. I believe that there is another model which doesn't lock automatically that I wish that I've bought.

I don't believe so. The documentation for my lock does not appear to have an option for it *not* to lock automatically...

In the reviews two people say you can. August 26, 2013 By ShopperX - See all my reviews "When the door closes it is locked behind you. (You can leave it unlocked, but have to use the key provided to put it in that mode.) Another user when referencing you could do this stated you had to leave the key in to do it. Another web site called it a "SCHLAGE FE595 Keypad Entry with Flex Lock" Make sure if you get it to double check the paperwork and it it does not do what you want you can send it back if your under 30 days. Amazon is amazing at working with people.

Not this one, however there are several others which do, such as Schlage FE595 V PLY 626 ELA Plymouth Keypad Entry with Flex-Lock and Elan Style Levers, Brushed Chrome or Schlage FE595 V PLY 505 FLA Plymouth Keypad Entry with Flex-Lock and Flair Style Levers, Bright BrassI have the latter in satin nickel and we have them at my office as well. Even 3+ years of commercial service and they're still going strong.

The simplest solution (temporary) do not shut your door alway down- E.g. You can glue a piece of rubber to upper corner of your door frame and when you closing it you will feel the limit also the piece of rubber will firmly hold the upper corner of your door to prevent opening by itself. 2 permanent solutions: 1. (cheapest) It has standard latch bolt (AKA latch core). Standard mean you can buy a 3rd party "latch bolt with stopper button" - Ask this q-n from Google or Home Depot salesmen. 2. You can have 2 closed door positions: First fixed by springed ball, second locked by the lock. The difference is few degree between those 2 positions The simplest solution (temporary) do not shut your door alway down- E.g.

Just closing it should lock it, but you may want to check the "security level" settings. There is high, low, and off. If it's "off" there won't be any security. The security level can by set by clicking the button with a lock under it.

Yes. I bought a locking one for less than $15 but you can get non-locking for much cheaper.

No i always lock mine. I think it tells you to do that in the instructions.

No it doesn't lock automatically. Gotta have a key to lock and unlock. But it's the only lock that I know of that is lockable (& unlockable) from both sides...

Here is the pdf from Schlage http://consumer.schlage.com/project%20documents/24060857.pdf on page 3 it talks about auto-lock feature. I have used this on one my three locks when my brother stayed at my house and forgot to lock the door. this is not enabled by default. you DO NOT need home automation to make this work. This feature is on the lock not home automation system.

Yes. You can set it to lock after it is opened and many other locking options.

I see yes and no answers on here, so I took out my manual and checked. Not only can you set it to automatically lock after 30 seconds, doing so was simple. Another feature to make me love this lock!

Mine does not. To lock it, I simply touch the "schlage" icon on the outside touchpad when I leave. The unit then locks and it flashes a green check mark to confirm that it successfully locked. Possibly, there is a mode to have it lock automatically, not sure though.

Unfortunately it does not lock. I have it mounted in a somewhat protected area so had not been a problem.

No, it does not automatically lock. The two ways to engage the lock are manually turning knob from inside or from outside after you press schlage button and then manually turn knob. Simple, effective and fool proof.

It doesn't automatically lock at the highest weight but there is a hold button that you can push that retains the weight until you either press the power button or press the hold button a second time.

It has a small lock switch on the side so you can't accidentally stop it. But it's not programmable

The feature is called "One Touch Locking" and to disabled it you would follow these instructions:[Master Pin] #3 # (Advanced Lock Settings)3 # (One Touch Locking)3 # (Disable feature. 1# would enable the feature.)

You can set it to close automatically if you choose. The default setting requires remote activation. The electronics are very user friendly.

The lock is always on. No way to keep it unlocked when closed. You get used to it

You can set it to close automatically when powered off or to stay open unless someone pushes the close button
