My lock remained unprogrammed for months, my lock did not come with paper instructions, there was a QR code on the battery cover that took me to a youtube video that then told me how not to program the lock. Was very frustrating, you saved the day. Thanks so much.

[@chrismakesstuff1]

That sounds frustrating, but glad I could help out.

[@rodneyakima1450]

Thank you so much made installation easy for me and yes bad reviews on the lock codes but your video very helpful 🙏

Hi Chris, the deadbolt on mine doesn't seem to be spinning freely even with the door open. I tried loosen a bit on all screws. The deadbolt would move in and out fine but require a little bit of force (same thing would happen with the key). I haven't got to putting the batteries in and the rest of the steps yet. Any ideas? Yours seems to spin very freely when you move it by hand at 7:32. Thanks!

[@chrismakesstuff1]

Without actually seeing it in person it's difficult to diagnose, but if the mechanism rotates freely when out of the door, then I'd assume it's binding or getting drag when installed

[@stevejohnson6684]

@@chrismakesstuff1 Thanks for the quick response. The installation went pretty smooth. I was being careful every step. The only thing I did not try was to move the deadbolt with a flat head screw driver before installing the front and the back parts. Will try that next. Btw, do you have to grease the deadbolt machanism?

[@chrismakesstuff1]

If I remember correctly, they do come from the factory with some assembly grease already in the bolt mechanism. More grease won't hurt it, though it wont fix alignment or interference issues if those are present.

[@perlaresendiz966]

Its easier if you follow the instructions as he says at the same time. 👍

[@chrismakesstuff1]

It seems so

[@anthonygutierrez7190]

Forgot my code does it have to be 7 digits or can it be shorter

[@chrismakesstuff1]

I believe the range is 4 to 12 digits

[@user-ob2of5dl1f]

If I changed the master code but don't remember what I changed it to then what

[@chrismakesstuff1]

There is a reset to original settings process. I don't remember exactly what it is off hand.

[@carigmotta6555]

Does yours lock when you close the door

[@chrismakesstuff1]

I personally did not program mine to lock automatically. It is a program option, I chose not to use it.

[@earlhayes2969]

Thanks Chris very Helpful

[@jbello2135]

@@chrismakesstuff1no u have to just press down on the lock button

[@ryanjensen8051]

Why won’t it lock after it’s installed. It’s like something is caught up in the mechanism?

[@chrismakesstuff1]

Very well could be. It's a tiny motor driving the mechanism, and if it's not mounted properly or with enough clearance it will struggle.

[@josiahamaze]

6:05 How To Reset and Program

[@chrismakesstuff1]

yes.

[@elultimomensaje777]

Does it automatically lock on its own?

[@chrismakesstuff1]

The lock can be programmed to lock automatically. I choose not to use that feature though

[@faranakgarza7469]

Thank you. First time on first try worked perfectly!!! How can you set it to lock on its own?

[@chrismakesstuff1]

Sorry, unfortunately I cant recall off hand.

[@butterflydiy9971]

It unlocks, but how do you lock it? It doesn’t work to lock it.

[@chrismakesstuff1]

To lock it, just press the lock button and hold for 2 seconds

[@gigolojay2420]

Can someone please post all the programming commands , mainly delete user code

[@chrismakesstuff1]

That would be cool.

[@Ghost42o415]

Mine doesn’t work after all the install, it just turns and lock don’t come out

[@chrismakesstuff1]

I'd suggest running through the programming again.

[@AjayKumar-xs9lj]

My one also same problem 😢

[@DennnnnnnY]

Couldn't someone do the reset procedure to break into our house if we use one of these code type locks? Makes me question this before buying

[@chrismakesstuff1]

The code reset is on the inside of the house.

[@DennnnnnnY]

@@chrismakesstuff1 fast response, thank you!

[@chrismakesstuff1]

no problem.

[@reubenpaul11]

I'm not able to do it man. Gave 2 hours. The screws thag needs to be put from inside doesnt go all the way inside at your 4:11 and is stuck outside.

[@chrismakesstuff1]

I'm assuming if everything is lined up properly and the 2 inside screws are not reaching, then the door is unusually thick.

[@reubenpaul11]

​@@chrismakesstuff1It doesn't go all the way inside the door. It is stuck halfway outside. So is the door thin? What to do in that case?

[@chrismakesstuff1]

I'd like to be able to help you out, but without actually seeing it, its difficult to offer good guidance.

[@Bitcoinfam]

I followed the exact instructions and it still is not working. Lol

[@chrismakesstuff1]

Could be as simple as 1 button not quick enough or maybe a faulty unit, hard to say.

[@Bitcoinfam]

@@chrismakesstuff1 I wish I could show you a video

[@howardfreeman1226]

A piece of junk and their service is worse than their product. Don't waste your time.

[@chrismakesstuff1]

Sorry to hear you're experience varied. I've been using it for over a year, and I'm happy with it.
