Does this have a Key retaining feature? Does the key stay in it when it is in the unlock position?

It stayed in when I used it this last weekend for the first time. Very sturdy lock.

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

No it does not lock/unlock with a key and it can only be locked/unlocked from the inside

Yes. You press the button down and slide the lock up to keep the button pressed.

Hi, this does not require a key to be left in it. You will retain both keys after programming the unit.

No, the key is removable in any position, both locked and unlocked. We use ours with the key in the lock since we are constantly in and out through the gate. We do not have our fence it for security ,but rather for the dogs . When I want it securely locked, I have a heavy keyed master lock hanging at the fence by the gate. This one I do not leave the key in.

Not unless you have there key. Before setting the lock to the new key you have to use the current working key to put the lock into a certain position.

No it doesn't lock, it does work good though the keyboard doesn't seem to slide at all when the drawer is pulled out

It will close on a key chain(at the top where the screwdriver is there is a opening and closing loop) when its opened it will automatically come off the key chain. It is a really handy design it makes it really easy to use..It stays very secure...I love it

No it doesn't, just protect it from accidents, like dropping. Also gives a better grip. What helps is locking the keys , at the bottom left of letters, a picture of a tiny lock. press & hold until key locked appears on screen. To unlock press unlock bottom left of screen, then yes on right of screen. Hope this helps.

No. The locking mechanism is shared. The key from either side locks the same lock.

We have one installed. It is wonderful not having to use a key when leaving - just push the "lock" button. On entry, no fumbling for keys - just the code. When we're home or in the yard during the day, we usually leave ours unlocked, and it does not lock automatically. So either older/different model, or there is a setting. There was a one-time set up using some switches as I recall. Does NOT need to be reset after changing the batteries.

It has a motorized latch that locks after a short time. Unless you have the door set to stay unlocked.

NO, it does not have a key lock. However it has two places where an external lock may be placed. If you need to keep youngsters out, please use a trigger lock. This case, even with a padlock, would not stop someone from breaking into it. To be the safest, use a trigger lock (cheaper in the long run.) and keep the key with you.

Yes... Unless you hold down the latch while retrieving the key/contents/etc., then close it before releasing latch. Once you release the latch, it locks.
