Can you set it so it always locks itself so an unauthorized user can't enter the room if the previous person forgot to lock behind them?

the lock doesn't lock itself, you either push the lock button on the keyboard or mechanically turn the locking mechanism on the lock itself. I'm very happy with this lock. you can buy AA Lithium batteries to extent the usable life cycle.

Yes you can, mine actually auto locks after 5 seconds, I never have to lock it myself. I believe this is the default setting but there is also a way of setting up your own threshold time (in the manual) if you don't have you manual you can download the pdf from the manufacturers website.

Yes you can it has a switch that will automatically set the door to lock after 3 seconds.

I just received this and as far as I can tell, when you enter the house it will automatically lock behind you. But when you leave the house, you have to manually unlock the door and it won't automatically lock. It just beeps over and over to remind you to lock the door. Either I'm doing something wrong or this is a HUGE flaw in the design.

Yes, it has an auto lock capability, which locks the door after about 4 or 5 sec

Wow, thanks for asking this question. I never thought of that, and that fact that the combination has to be set to close the lock helped me choose not to buy this lock. Thank you.

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

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. It locks whenever engaged. You always have to input the code. I used it on an interior door but It stopped working for me after 2 weeks. I spent a total of $20 in postage to receive and return. It is very heavy. I was give credit but it was a net loss of $20 for postage. I now have an extra hole in my door. I haven't replaced it with anything yet.

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.

The lock can be set to lock every time someone enters or leaves, or it can be set to stay unlocked until someone locks it.

I have alarm.com. The code to unlock must be set/changed at the door. The code within the Alarm.com system should be the same as that door code if you intend to have any triggers such as [correct code at door = disarm system]. I have not yet had to change any of our codes (haven't had it very long) if there is a "syncing" between the door and the system so codes could be changed remotely, than I am not aware of it.

Yes, you can do that. As a matter of fact, you have to do that in order to lock it.

go to your tool/settings, then keyguard settings, then select "press once". i don't think you can select no lock option, just "press once" or "press twice". the lock can be a good thing, otherwise you would be calling people by accident/pocket dialing. hope this helps?

I have never seen that option, sounds like a parental control or demo mode function. It must be in the menu somewhere to turn that off. Maybe you can email Sony or open the pdf version of the manual and search for "lock"?

Hello. You'll need to provide your own lock. Padlock, combination lock, etc.

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 must first turn the knob from inside to open the door. I believe this is to prevent someone from locking themselves out of the room after they have left.

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.
