how do you lock from the outside after you exit?

Just turn the deafbolt in locking position. You can always turn it to lock, but only can unlock it with the selected code you chose.

When you close door just turn the knob and it will lock until you set your combination and turn knob to unlock.

No code required to lock; just turn the knob. One of my doors (I have 3) is off a bit, so I have to push against the door to get the bolt to engage with the hole in the door frame. That has nothing to do with the lock mechanism, but rather, the installation. Take care in your alignment.

No you can't leave it unlocked, once you shut door it locks, you use key overide you have to remove small circle cover and place key

We use a doorbell switch on one gate (inside yard) for leaving. Pull it shut to lock, you will need to lubricate the latch for smooth locking. Hope this helps.

Yes, there is a hold button (red) that overrides the system so you can keep doors open. If you forget to push it and the doors close you can still get back in as long as you have the outdoor keypad access.

You control the closing with your foot. Nothing automatically stops it, but it doesn't slam down abruptly either. Specially if you have a little trash bag, this softens the closing.

Hello Lisa. so you enter your code. Walk through the gate. Close the gate....and you now want to leave. So you press this button (resembles a door bell) and it activates the lock to the open position and you open the gate and exit. Simple as that! I truly enjoy this device!

Once you touch a key it all lights up. Also when leaving I always thought you had to put your code in to lock but you don't you close the door and press the one key on top and turn the lock then it will engage.makes for a quick depart.

Turn bottom 'knob' to the right. This locks door from inside. When you are leaving home, turn it to the right when door is open; then close door and it is locked. The bottom knob is a little stiff at first, but after a few turns it is fine. Hope this helps. RS

It doesn't need to be exterior. Just look for any non-locking door knob. Usually they say "closet" on the package.The only problem you run into with this deadbolt is you can't use them on main entry doors to apartment buildings. You need something that automatically locks when you close the door, and kwikset has yet to implement this lock with their "interconnect" series. It basically does not allow you to just simply carry around your master key. I hope you hear me quickset

Each rung has a lock so you'd have to manually unlock each as you go. Hope that helps!

It is either in autolock or unlock mode. You can't lock it from outside the door if it in the unlock mode. Actually there is a way to lock it from outside if you really want to but it involve reprogramming the lock to be in always lock mode, so the "flip switch" is disabled. But it is not the right way to do, easier way is to just open the door and flip the switch inside to auto-lock mode and close back the door.

the two circular ends spin right and left. Start with one end, turn the circle to the left, press it against the wall, and then turn to the right to lock it. Repeat for the other side. I think there is a lock-&gt; marker on the circle

There are 2 metal latches on the inside of the window that are spring loaded and will lock shut into desired position. So when the window is down you cannot open it from the outside.

No, The do functions much like any other door. Think of the key pad as a key hole. You can only enter a locked door from outside if you have the "key" code. On the inside the door automatically locks behind you unless you press the unlock button or have a Mode on that keeps the door unlocked. From inside you can come and go no matter what mode the door is in locked or unlocked. (This means you could possibly lock yourself out if you don't know the status of the lock mode)

You can only lock it from the outside with the key, but that defeats the purpose of the digital lock doesn't it. You have to turn the lock before you go out, or open the door and turn it. I can only guess that there is alarm system involved here.

Sorry, but this version does not support exit bars. You may want to search for our ETDL version locks. Thank you, B&H; Depot

Have the locking mechanism in the unlocked position and turn it clockwise to tighten it
