Once scanned does it relock your door behind you or do you have to manually relock the door?

Yes it locks behind you ....you can also program it to not lock behind you when you close the door as well. I bought this lock recently along w a couple others

Aaron's answer below is a good full description of the process going both in and out. The only thing I would add is when you are entering, when you scan your finger and the bolt unlocks, you need to close the cover before you go inside and lock the door by pressing the button. If you leave the cover open, it beeps to remind you.

When you enter the house you scan your finger which unlocks the deadbolt, then once you're inside and close the door, there is a button on the inside you press to have it lock again. When you leave the house you press this same button to unlock the door. Then when outside of the house with the door closed, you raise and lower the cover to lock the door back.

You can lock the door from the outside by lifting then lowering the fingerprint reader cover.

The lock alone will not do this but if you had another device such as a wink hub or similar device you can. The wink device is very basic and you can trigger an event and it will notify you when the door has been unlocked. You can also remotely unlock or lock the door. The only drawback to the wink for this is you cannot distinguish what code was entered. So if my son had a different code than my wife I could not tell who unlocked it, just that it was unlocked. There are other hubs that allow this, one from staples does and I am being to D wink will support this soon.

No, You have to manually turn the knob to lock & use code or key to re-enter house.

It manually triggers the sensor. Makes it easier to configure and test the sensor without opening and closing the door.

For security reasons, the lock was designed to be back to "lock" position within three seconds automatically after a correct code is entered. This security feature will prevent a "forgot-and-left-unlock" after an entry. However, if you need to open/close frequently without the need for security, you can consider setting up "passage mode" with one-key touch open without entering an access code.

Not sure what you mean by autolock but if it is opened you must lock it with a key or by using the keypad. Simply a joy to have!

We have the gate at the top of our stairs. It closes automatically and "locks". To open again you'll need to lift the whole door up and swing it open. Think of the lever like a deadbolt on your door. It closes and locks by itself but if you want to really seal it then you'll need to manually flip the "deadbolt" down.

The lock does not physically lock or unlock itself at all. It provides the ability for the *person* to provide the turning of the knob to lock or unlock from the outside. Without punching in the correct code, the outside knob just spins freely - it won't unlock. That said, if the lock is locked, and you punch in the correct code from the outside but don't turn the knob, it will automatically revert back to a free spinning knob in a few seconds - essentially keeping the door locked. If you are looking for it to automatically lock behind you after you close the door, this lock will not do that - it's designed to have the person do the turning of the lock knob to lock or unlock it.

It doesn't latch automatically. You need to turn the knob after closing the door from the inside, and you need to lock with the key when leaving from the outside.

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!

If you use the automatic locking feature to lock the door it may bind-up the deadbolt if it's too tight or not perfectly aligned. On mine, I have to jiggle the door a little for the deadbolt to engage fully. Otherwise, the automatic deadbolt will cycle for a few seconds then will stop trying to lock. You always need to make sure the lock has engaged.

This lock does autolock after a specific amount of seconds when the keypad is used for entry, or the unlock button is depressed on the side opposite the keypad. The lock itself does not know whether the door is closed or open, so the state of the lock does not change based on door position. However, if you are skilled enough with Z-wave, and have a window/door sensor (such as the model schalge makes: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008Q5CTBE/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER ), then you can program the locks behavior yourself. Nothing in the manual (which is terrible for anything except installation) points to even being able to turn off the autolock, or change the duration of seconds till autolock, but this behavior can be modified with z-wave commands.

The Biometric reader scans one finger for the fingerprint. I found it very unreliable and inconsistent so I just use the keypad on this unit. When it unlocks, the knob does have to be turned to retract the lugs back into the door.

Never had to try it, but you would still have to hold down the scan button...there is a way to automatic scan, but we don't use it for our purposes.

I'm not sure what the problem is. The lock automatically resets itself after you open it using the code. If you have set the lock to 'unlocked' using the knob/lever on the inside of the door, just turning it to the 'lock' position sets it to 'locked'. You can hear the lock setting. There is no need to re-enter the code. Or have i entirely misunderstood the problem? I have two of these style locks and never have to re-enter the code.

There is no locking mechanism. You slide it under the door when it's shut. If someone opens the door its pushes down on the flap and the alarm sounds.

Yes it will. If you hit the button within 30 seconds of it stopping in the full open position, it will close without re-entering the security code. After 30 seconds, you have to re-enter the code and then hit the button and it will close. Same goes for opening it after it has closed.
