If I dont need to remotely access the lock do I still need some sort of service in order for the lock to work? Thank you.

No you do not. In fact if you want to use remotely you do not need a service if you have a z wave hub. I use Vera lite and it works like a charm. It is very helpful to get a text, email or both when it is accessed or locked. I know who entered and when. I just bought two more of these locks.

No, you don't need to sign up for the "Z" service (or whatever they call it). Just use it like a regular door lock, with no network type access. The touchpad works great to lock/unlock it, and you can carry the manual override key in case the electronics ever fail. The manual key is simply a regular door lock key. I just hide one in the yard in case it is ever needed but I doubt I will need it as long as I replace the batteries once or maybe twice a year. As I said in my review, I like this lock so much that I will change all of doors over to this same. Good luck to you!

The answer is No, without the nexia's service, you still can manually open the lock, add or change access codes and set the alarm sensitivity.

No, just twist the lock. You only have to enter the code if its locked and you want to open it. I hope that answers your questions and I'm sure you'll love this lock, its awesome to not have to carry keys with you. Also, since its mechanical, you wont have to deal with the problems that I've had with the battery operated units. They're problematic and this one is trouble free!

You have to use the key to lock or unlock it. No way to accidently close it or lock it without a key.

Yes you will need some form of a"always on internet". I have that at both of my places with this system and we love it. we have the Nexia System and use it very often to allow persons to enter the property withouth us having to leave a key. The system tells us when someone uses an assigned code or attempts to enter without a code.

You might try reprogramming your remote to your garage opener! We have not experienced locking out! It's worth a try! Good luck

No, you can just go to the hardware store and get a snap like on the end of a dog leash. There are several other options that will work and dont require using the lock.

Yes you have to lock it every time with key. It will not lock on its own, probably to prevent lockouts.

it shouldn't be lock an see i say these people are just out for money there products an services suck i wouldn't recomend there crap to anyone. but you should be able to slide the lock in the circle an it open or reset it .

It is not a deadbolt which requires a key or fingerprint on both sides. Operation from the non fingerprint side is always unlocked. You can also put it in passage mode by hitting a button once authenticed or use the key.

No the z wave technology is for paring with your phone so you could unlock the door remotely. When inside you use the the knob manually to lock & unlock & outside you use the key pad and code and the lock activates automatically. Hope that helps.

John, I apologize that it took me so long to get back with you. If you do a search on the type of key that is comparable to the one you have then I am sure you shouldn't have a problem. Now as far as your alarm system, if you set it up yourself; I would think you wouldn't have a problem. But if it was something that was done by a company (as far as the installation and pairing with your key for remote access) then you may have to take it back to them for service. Just my opinion. I am not an expert. :)

Not entirely certain. The automation features are definitely independent of alarm monitoring and it will function as an alarm keypad. To use the remote services, I had to get the panel MAC address tied to alarm net. I saw on one of the DIY alarm sites that someone has been able to access this panel remotely through their router without an alarm net subscription. This panel does have a static IP address on my network

Yes with caveats. You can manually program in access code(s) and then use the touch pad. Of course you can always use a key. If your goal is remote access using a smartphone, then you need some kind of hub. So you can either use the Nexia hub and subscribe to their service, or you can use another home automation hub that support the Schlage touchpad lock. I use the Revolv hub, though it was recently acquired by Nest/Google and future is uncertain. I know that the Wink Hub (available on Amazon and elsewhere) supports this lock. It is a great lock, good luck.

The current version of these locks come with pre-programmed codes. One for the owner and 2 different ones for 'users'. These are printed in the manual and on a easily removed sticker inside the lock.All codes can quickly be changed, over and over. Some of the home automation and security systems, Wink, Iris, etc, allow you to make those changes remotely.Seems that set up may be useful for landlords, cleaning crew, etc
