I rent house with evil door lock. Been locked out. Is this going to be easy to install and remove. I don't want to leave it in the rental when I move.

It will be hard to remove the inside knob as it was very hard to put in. I would prefer to get the lock with the handle instead of the round knob.

The lock is easy and quick to install. I can't forsee any issues removing it when you are ready to move.

It wasn't bad to install--the hardest part was connecting the outside knob (instructions were for a handle), but once figured out, it was simple.

This is easily the best (and easiest to put in) keyless lockset I have ever used. I stopped using keys years ago, adn in every home I hve had, I put in a keyless system. It is a great selling point and it is easy to use the second code for the cleaning lady. I can easily change the code on the second set at whim. I love this set.

Yes. Should be a 10 minute install at worse case.. just need a philips screwdriver. The directions are very simple.

it is as simple as a normal lock i would just take a picture of the key code to change lock codes with your phone so if you need to change a code quickly you dont have to pull lock and read it. I love these locks very ez and simple

It's the tab that controls the spring-loaded "door" that prevents people from pulling the lock cylinder with a slide hammer. It doesn't stick that fara out when it's installed because the door is held open by the outside cylinder whose actuator bar runs through the "door" and pulls the solver tab into the housing 80%. On my house, I use these as night locks with no key on the outside of the door (just didn't install the outside cylinder) so the tab sticks out as shown. You could bend it or cut it off and it would make no difference.

Yes, I installed it , removed the doorknob and kept the deadbolt in.....the thing is though that if you close the door with the deadbolt, you won't be able to get back inside using only the fingerprint...

Nope...either leave door open, or key in the code. Just like a hotel door (Kind of a pain at first, but you get used to it fast, plus it is better than keys.

Mine is mounted with decent-sized screws to a concrete wall, and the case itself seems pretty tough. It would be hard to pry off, and would hopefully draw some attention from the neighbors, but I'm sure it's possible. With 12 buttons there are also only 4096 combinations, so someone could also defeat it that way. But it's a lot better than hiding a key. For that matter, what's to prevent someone from prying your door open?

You will only remove the deadbolt to install this unit. You will not have to remove the knob underneath the deadbolt. Installation was very easy. Took a total of 20 minutes. I very much enjoy the idea of a keypad deadbolt lock. My daughter does not like to carry keys, so this makes it convenient.

That would be a question best directed to the manufacturer. It seems to be a simple lock that would be easily replaced or re-keyed, but I've never tried it, so cannot say for sure.

Yes, you are doing it the right way. You don't need the key to lock it. Just click it twice to be safe.

We setup codes per renter and let them know ahead of time. Then we program the lock to add their code at checkin time and remove it at checkout. We are then set their code to "alert" and get an email when they arrive. Our cleaning people have a different code as well. Since each renter has their own codes, no one can re-enter the house when they are not renting as well.In addition I have thermostats on the system and can turn the heat/ac on and off when the house is unoccupied and before renters arrive. I also have an outlet setup on my water heater and a few light switches for exterior lights and a few main lights. We setup codes per renter and let them know ahead of time.

My husband installed it and then realized it was meant for another door, so he had to remove it. He had no problem doing so. :) Hope that helps!

No issues with theft. When in storage, you want it in the "off" position. Since the knob can't be removed while in the "on" or "off" position, there really isn't a reason (except some type of maintenance) to remove it. A good placement for installation would be a better deterrent. Mine is somewhat hidden on trailer frame.

It would require more than a little effort to remove it once installed. If your tale gate locks it could not be removed without destroing it as long as it has the bed fully covered. The bolts that lock the unit to the bed are not easy to get to and could have lock-tight put on then to make things more of a problem.

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

If you do not have the instructions that came with the lock, you can request a copy from Mighty Mule, or find them on their web site. The instructions are very good and easy to follow. You are also welcomed to call customer service (phone # in the instruction folder) for specific issues. You will like the lock once it is installed. Good luck.
