The Schlage Encode Smart WiFi Deadbolt is a solid choice if you're looking for a secure and convenient smart lock for your home. It uses a keypad lock type with a fingerprint-resistant touchscreen, allowing easy one-touch locking and up to 100 unique access codes. This means you can easily give different people temporary or permanent entry without handing out physical keys. Since it has built-in WiFi, you can lock or unlock your door from anywhere using the Schlage app or Amazon’s Key app, without needing extra hubs or accessories. It also works with Alexa, so you can check your lock status or control it with voice commands, which adds a nice hands-free touch.

The lock is powered by four AA batteries, which are included, and it gives you low battery warnings so you won’t be caught off guard. Installation is straightforward and does not require complicated tools — just a screwdriver is enough, and a clever snap-on design holds the deadbolt in place while you work. It fits most standard doors with thickness between 1-3/8” and 1-3/4” and offers a universal backset for better compatibility.

On the security front, it meets the highest residential ANSI Grade 1 standards and includes an alarm that detects tampering attempts. One thing to keep in mind is that it requires a 2.4GHz WiFi network, so make sure your home supports that. While some users may find the touchscreen sensitive or the battery life average for heavy usage, the lock’s wide device compatibility and robust security features make it a strong contender for anyone wanting a reliable smart lock with remote access and smart home integration.

Security features include anti-peeping code protection, a low battery indicator, and a solid lock cylinder for reliable home protection. Installation is straightforward and requires only a screwdriver, fitting standard US door sizes with 2-1/8" (54mm) door holes, though it does not fit narrower 38mm holes, which affects compatibility with some doors.

The lock operates on batteries (not included) and requires occasional battery replacement. While it does not offer wireless connectivity or integration with popular smart home systems, it effectively covers essential features. This makes it a solid choice for users seeking enhanced security without the complexity of full smart home integration.

If you install this lock on a metal door, the WiFi signal may be weaker, affecting remote control features.
