Review: Super Slick and Truly Apple HomeKit Compatible (with limits) - PROS: First, I've read many, many articles, reviews and viewed twice as many videos searching for the best Apple HomeKit compatible smart lock. I did my homework. Bingo - Schlage Encode Plus kept coming up as the one to purchase. The "Plus" means it Apple HomeKit compatible. I bought two. I agree hands down I made the correct purchase. They have worked seamlessly from install to setup. It took longer to install (15 minutes changing out hardware, etc) than to connect to HomeKit (2 minutes). Neither was complicated or frustrating! The connectivity has been seamless. I had a need to set up temporary Codes for others including limits to what days and hours, expiration date, etc. and when miles away from home lock or unlock the door, all done easily and successfully through HomeKit App. Schlage has a wealth of information on install and setting up and connecting to HomeKit. Start first with downloading the Schlage App. Also, they have great interactive instructions available walking you through step by step. All this makes for a successful install and operation. CONS: As for features, the only downside is getting geofence capabilities to work seamlessly in HomeKit and this appears to be because of security protections with HomeKit. Overkill, let the user decide. There is no information out there about this. The focus seems to be tap your phone or watch to lock/unlock while you are standing there (can also use Siri inside, etc) but NOT on setting up Scenes and Automations which is the weak link. When set up in Scenes with my other items, lamps, etc. nothing worked properly with Automation automatically due to the "alert" that pops up on iPhone screen asking if you want to execute the Automation. For example, pulling into or out of the garage and driveway "Scene" for lock or unlock Schlage locks, turn on or off lights, etc. I have to confirm execution of Scene on my iPhone pop up notification! Bummer. I had to remove the locks from the "Scene" and all was back to normal. An alert still pops up for the locks asking to confirm. This needs improvement holistically. I'm still seeking solutions and I'm sticking with my purchases. Also, Schlage only includes one key with the lock. At this price point, two keys would be appropriate. UPDATE: 08-10-2025: Through a Siri command on my phone or watch and also via CarPlay, I'm able to lock and unlock the door(s) upon leaving and/or returning home, pulling into or out of the driveway, etc. Though I don't consider this HomeKit Automation, it's a work around. I'm still satisfied with my purchase. Review: Works well. Super easy to install. Great HomeKit features. - Got it installed and it's working well. Download the Schlage App first and it will give you step by video guidance on how to install it. Give it a day or two for Thread to start working if you are using it in HomeKit. You can check the status in the Eve App by the way. I'm using both the Schlage App (which users WiFi) and the HomeKit App (which uses Thread), but mainly because the Schlage App has easier Access Management tools and is needed for Firmware updates. If you can get by with HomeKit only the batteries will last a lot longer, but I'd rather have the convenience of both Apps. The HomeKit integration is my main App though. Love the "one touch" unlocking with my Apple Watch and being able to use Siri to operate it. It's really intuitive to use and my Wife and Kids clued in on it easily. You press the Home Icon on the keypad to bring up the display and then enter your code to unlock it, and you press the Lock Icon when you leave to lock it. You've probably used similar if you've ever stayed at an Air BnB. I love how it tells you who used what code (or if they used their phone or watch) and when too. It even pops up on my Apple TV 4k (which you need if you want Thread to work). There's a ton of features I don't use like auto lock because I can envision the cleaners leaving the door open and then closing it with the deadbolt open and marring the doorjamb. So you gotta think a lot of this stuff though. I mainly got it to get rid of having to carry the key and to get our Cleaners and Kids in when they come. It's also nice when I go for a walk. I'm tending to use the Front door more now that it's so easy. As smart locks go, this one looks great and is the smallest one I've seen that actually still looks like a lock. I bought the Schlage Camelot Door Handles that match it and they are super high quality. It latches SO smoothly. I guess I didn't realize there was much difference between name brand locks, but there are definitely levels to this game and Schage is a cut above. One thing to keep in mind. Strike plate alignment is critical on these. The bolt has to hit the hole without any obstruction. If you have any drag on the motor, it will fail prematurely. I ended up buying new oversized strike plates and redid them both just to give it plenty of room in case the house shifts a bit. That took longer to do than installing the lock did, but man it looks so professional now. The old Strike Plates were trashed. So well worth the effort. Time will tell on the reliability, but so far a week in and everything's working perfectly. I love having it. It's the gift that keeps on giving. ## Features - ANYWHERE ACCESS: With built-in WiFi compatibility, you can easily and securely connect your Schlage Encode Plus lock to your home WiFi network to control and monitor your home from anywhere with the Schlage Home app - PEACE OF MIND: Lock and unlock from anywhere, manage up to 100 access codes, view lock history, receive customizable notifications and easily manage multiple locks at once - all when paired to the Schlage Home app and connected to a secure WiFi network - TAP TO UNLOCK: Works with Apple HomeKit and Apple home keys; with home keys you can simply tap to lock or unlock using your iPhone or Apple Watch for easy and secure access to your home - VOICE CONTROL: Works with desertcart Alexa and Google Assistant for optional, hands-free convenience when paired with the Schlage Home app and a voice enabled device - ADVANCED SECURITY: Secure, encrypted connection; built-in, customizable alarm for door movement and forced entry attempts; fingerprint-resistant touchscreen; certified highest residential Security, Durability and Finish rating by BHMA industry experts - EASY INSTALL: Install in minutes with just a screwdriver, no hardwiring required; Snap ‘n Stay design helps keep the lock on the door so both hands are free; fits standard doors with 1-3/8 in to 1-3/4 in door thickness and 2-3/8 in or 2-3/4 in backset - COME AND GO WITH EASE: Auto-lock conveniently relocks the door for you and has a variety of time delay options to choose from or can be turned off completely; One-touch locking from the exterior touchscreen makes locking up when leaving easy ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09RS6C1SJ | | Additional Features | Door Locks | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,606 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #9 in Deadbolts | | Brand | SCHLAGE | | Brand Name | SCHLAGE | | Color | Matte Black | | Connectivity Protocol | Bluetooth, Wi-Fi | | Control Method | Touch | | Controller Type | Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 out of 5 stars 2,501 Reviews | | Finish Types | Matte Black | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00194555086777 | | Included Components | Installation Hardware, Installation Instructions | | Item Dimensions | 0.9 x 3 x 5 inches | | Item Type Name | Smart Lock | | Item Weight | 3.4 pounds | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 0.9 x 3 x 5 inches | | Lock Type | Keypad | | Manufacturer | Schlage | | Manufacturer Part Number | BE499WB CEN 622 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Backed by a limited lifetime mechanical and finish warranty, and a limited three-year electronics warranty.

Bad customer support. *by S***M on June 11, 2026* I purchased a Schlage lock that failed within the warranty period. I initially reported the issue through Amazon support, and they directed me to Schlage support. Schlage contacted me on April 30 and requested photos of the lock. After reviewing them, they determined the issue was related to the latch and sent me a replacement latch about a week later. I installed the new latch and tested the lock again, but the problem remained unresolved. I contacted Schlage again on May 14. Customer Service once again forwarded my case to the Warranty Operations team because the lock was still under warranty. The warranty team requested additional photos showing the newly installed latch. I repeatedly explained that the issue was not with the latch but with the electronic components of the lock. However, I was continually asked for more pictures of the latch rather than having the actual problem addressed. This back-and-forth process continued for nearly four weeks. What seems to be overlooked is that these locks are often installed on a home's main entry door. Customers cannot reasonably leave their front door unusable or unsecured while waiting weeks for a resolution or replacement. Unfortunately, my experience with the Warranty Operations team was very frustrating. The representative did not appear to listen to my explanation of the issue and seemed focused only on following a script rather than understanding the problem. If Schlage locks are marketed as premium products, it is concerning that a lock would fail after only 18 months of use. To help move the case forward, I provided both videos and photos today. I was out of town for couple weeks in EOM, and my family had locked the door because the lock could not be used properly, which delayed my ability to provide additional documentation. I have now submitted the requested photos and videos to Customer Support and will provide further updates as the case progresses. Not sure how many more weeks i have to wait for a replacement. CONS: 4 AA batteries change every3-4 months Lock latch jams App is very useless Not a great customer support ## Frequently Bought Together - Schlage Encode Plus Smart Wi-Fi Lock for Front Door, Keyless Entry Deadbolt, Unlock with Apple Watch, Built-in WiFi and App Control, Easy Install, Alexa & Apple HomeKit Compatible, Matte Black - Schlage FE285 CEN 622 LAT CEN Century Front Entry Handleset with Latitude Lever, Lower Half Grip, Matte Black - Schlage F10 LAT 622 CEN Latitude Door Lever with Century Trim, Hall & Closet Passage Lock, Matte Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hk/products/461213319-schlage-encode-plus-smart-wifi-deadbolt-lock-tap-to-unlock](https://www.desertcart.hk/products/461213319-schlage-encode-plus-smart-wifi-deadbolt-lock-tap-to-unlock) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hong Kong* *Store origin: HK* *Last updated: 2026-08-03*
