No, it doesn't have passage mode. You would need to buy the one that is similiar but costs twice as much. The model is RL2000.

Jan, the only way the lock be left in an "open" position, if you want to call it that, is to tape the latch from coming out of the door. Perhaps you should use a deadbolt system to lock overnight and replace the LockState lock with a regular door handle.

Whenever you shut the door, it's locked and a code is required to unlock it. You'd have to block the door open to keep it unlocked.

Yes, unless you hold the latch down until you take the key out and close the door. Once the latch is released, the latch locks. It doesn't matter if the door is in an open or closed position.

If you leave it a place overnight or for an extended period of time, im sure it can. This is not the type of lock you get if you're going to be leaving your bike locked for a while. This lock is great for locking it up to get to class, picking-up groceries, etc.

Yea, mine lock in both directions. You push until there's a small click and the same for the open position.

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

You can lock it from both sides, but only one side needs a key/finger. The other is a push button

No, The do functions much like any other door. Think of the key pad as a key hole. You can only enter a locked door from outside if you have the "key" code. On the inside the door automatically locks behind you unless you press the unlock button or have a Mode on that keeps the door unlocked. From inside you can come and go no matter what mode the door is in locked or unlocked. (This means you could possibly lock yourself out if you don't know the status of the lock mode)

In the reviews two people say you can. August 26, 2013 By ShopperX - See all my reviews "When the door closes it is locked behind you. (You can leave it unlocked, but have to use the key provided to put it in that mode.) Another user when referencing you could do this stated you had to leave the key in to do it. Another web site called it a "SCHLAGE FE595 Keypad Entry with Flex Lock" Make sure if you get it to double check the paperwork and it it does not do what you want you can send it back if your under 30 days. Amazon is amazing at working with people.

If you ask me, this lock isn't the greatest in quality. I had to take it off after one day. But to answer your question, no. You can get in from the other side. You just have to push the handle down harder than normal and with that pressure, the lock will disable and the the door will open.

You can program the lock to auto lock or to manual lock, whatever your preference is. You did need to know that you can open the door from the inside while it remains in the locked position. This could be an issue if you are used to a door that the knob will not turn from either side of the door while locked.

yes. you can have it lock automatically or you can set it so it stays open. great lock!

Like one of the others said, if the dial is left in the right position, you can just use the key. It kind of defeats the purpose of a safe, though.
274736
Yes. If you enter the combination, and are careful not to bump the tumbler, you can leave it locked with only the key.

Yes, or any movement will open it even if partially. This design has no way of keeping in place without locking and in turn you need the key to reopen. Try the non lock version BBS-2331 it should give you the look you want...

YES. You can lock it out or just turn it off. There is a hold button which stops the timer and you just close the door by any means you already have. Or just turn it off if you prefer. The one downside is that it can close with you outside if you don't hear the alarm. So you should have a way back into the house either a hidden key, a wireless external keyboard.

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!

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