Is this as secure as the Schlage keyless deadbolt?

No, This is a regular door latch. In my opinion ,a deadbolt is more secure.

I would have to say no because it not a deadbolt. It is as secure as a standard passage lock without needing a key.

No,,,,the deadbolt will stay intact ,,only until valid code is entered,,,very little waste of energy,,,but worth the price,,,it extends far into door frame,,more so than any other residential deadbolt that I examined,,,and I backed it up with a METAL enclosed receiving hole enclosure,,,very handy combined with a matching LEVER instead of a round knob,,thank you

Yes. This is a very good lock, and when connected to an alarm service, entry is very easy. I love having this on my door.

I used this with a schlage sliding door handle mortise lock and it worked great. Sorry, I don't know for sure about schlage deadbolts but I imagine it would.

I seems that any lick with a standard cut key is susceptible to bumping. However, Schlage locks are more bump resistant than other "kwik" brands. I replaced a kwik digital lock with this for sheer quality & durability.

No. Shutting the door sets the mechanism to lock down. So anybody wanting to enter has to tap a code. But, I would strongly discourage you to buy this lock. Mine failed and broke a few months after I bought it, long past it's warranty. It's money thrown away. I bought the Schlage and has never given us any problems.

If the deadbolt catches for a moment on anything (like debris or a little scale) it will oftentimes partially lock and will not allow you to open it again without key. It is very sensitive to movement or any stiction. I would NOT use this on a marine application.

I'm not sure about the specific model you mentioned, but the locksmith was great at rekeying our Schlage deadbolts and door locks (including a keypad entry) so they all use the same key. And reading the reviews I say that someone had rekeyed them before they were installed -- made a lot of sense, so we did too! Saved us the cost of a locksmith coming out. Just dropped off the locks after we received them and the locksmith rekeyed them in an hour. We had them installed and have never had a problem. Love them!!!

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.

I think they're just saying that if you DO order a security-type set (i.e., the same model knob, but a "security set" which also includes the deadbolt, which a regular non-security knob does not include) THEN your extra deadbolt piece will be able to be opened with the same key. THIS particular set is only the knobs - no deadbolt, I think...

Yes, you are doing it the right way. You don't need the key to lock it. Just click it twice to be safe.

I have purchased other Schlage lock sets on Amazon and I was able to have them keyed the same. They all have a code that tells the store/seller which key grind the lock comes with.

Valid concern, that is what happened to me. I was okay with it as this lock is WAY more secure than the little built in one.

Yes, it can be used alone but I returned the lock I purchased and bought the Yale lock with Schlage keyway for less money. This is not an automated lock....there are much less expensive (less than 100.00) options if you are not networking with Z wave controller.

I don't know what an SC1 keyway is but the key is exactly the same as a Schlage key.

Hi there Kalra my name is Glenn and I am a maintenance Tech, I have had the same entry lock on my apartment door, I am slightly confused, if we are talking about The sclage FE575 plymouth keypad lock,the only thing that is done from outside is pressing the keypad, or using your key,and yes when entering your code is does Click open, other than that maybe the lock is faulty, my advise if it still under warranty and not to old is to send it back to schlage,I hope this shed some light on Your problem, Glenn.

Yes, this uses traditional door handle/lock holes, and should be a drop-in replacement for most handles/locks currently in place. No, this unit is NOT a dead bolt, it is a traditional outside-entry door lock. Schlage makes a different (similar) unit that is a dead bolt only.
