is this a MOTORIZED lockset? When you punch in your code to you have to manually turn it or does it retract and reset via a motor?

It is motorized you just need to make sure you have a good alignment. My house shifted so I do have to turn the knob and pull a little but very solid and well made

It must have a motor because you simply put in your code and the lock button. I Love It.

Here is the link to the directions below. It shows how to reprogram the lock. However, there is a warning that you must know the specific original factory code for your lock as it will reset to that code. This was located on the lock when new. It is not shown in the directions and according to the directions cannot be recovered by customer service. It warns not to reset unless you know that factory code. I hope this helps, although may not it you don't know the factory code for your lock. http://consumer.schlage.com/project%20documents/23780042%20fe%20and%20be-series%20user%20guide-a_web.pdf

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.

Not sure I understand what you mean by "if I open using the knob it autocloses." Do you mean if you turn the dial to unlock the lock manually, it will then relock automatically? That's weird. If I manually unlock mine, it doesn't auto relock unless I open the door and then shut it again so the magnet triggers the relock. And if the open/close button does nothing, it sounds like maybe you got a defective unit.

Take it to a locksmith. The cylinder should be able to be removed. Re-keying a lock is not something the normal DIY guy can handle. But as i remember the setup/installation it should be possible with the right tools.

Mine automatically re-locks ... I do not move the inside lock ever because it is simpler to simply press in the code To unlock rather than forget to re-lock ... hope that helps

Yes. It locks like a regular deadbolt from the inside. It's quick and easy, but it can always be unlocked with the correct code from the outside.

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.

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

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.

It is mechanical.....push buttons to enter your code, much like a turn dial on a school locker. When the correct code is pressed, the lock opens. NO digital readout or anything.

I did not know so I actually keyed in several incorrect codes and the lock stopped responding. I went back several minutes later and was able to key in correct code, and it worked. So yes it does lockout.

I see yes and no answers on here, so I took out my manual and checked. Not only can you set it to automatically lock after 30 seconds, doing so was simple. Another feature to make me love this lock!

There is a small pin whole on the lock. 1. Set the lock to the correct combo 2. put a pin in the pin whole and hold it there (do not remove the pin for the duration of the process. 3. Set the new code 4. Release the pin. Be careful not to release the Pin early, I did this once and ended up having to send the lock back to the factory so it could be reset.

There are simple instructions - once the lock portion is removed, there are some rings that can be rotated to set the new combination. It does not come with a key. If you forget the key, grab a sledgehammer.

These may seem obvious but first check to make sure you have the right key for the lock and then make sure the key is all the way into the lock. It is a Master Lock and my code starts with a P. Then turn it 1/4 turn clockwise. It may take a little force to turn it. If that doesn't work, try releasing some of the tension on the cable by lifting the camera up some. If all else fails, get out the bolt cutters and cut the cable and return it as defective. 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
