  • Inside it is corroding as it really has no seal from weather.
  • Needed to get this because my wife's phone (Galaxy Note 5) will NOT work with the Smart LockGreat addition to the August products (probably should be included with the lock due to the finicky Bluetooth issues with the lock).

Reviews around thing (4.03 of 5)

  • The only good thing about this keypad is that this is remote
  • Because my unit was over a year old the only thing August could offer me was a 20% discount on a new smart lock keypad and that's just not good enough

Reviews around door (3.86 of 5)

  • The door camera not so great.
  • To combat this, everyone has to carry their physical door key, which DEFEATS the whole purpose of the keypad lock
  • While it seems like common sense that a keypad would be needed for a smart door lock, August does not seem to agree
  • This is a must have to go with the August smart door lock
  • It makes it fairly simple to secure the door remotely, but this keypad is terrible.

Reviews around code (2.28 of 5)

  • Also extremely easy to issue a report code that you can set to only work for a few hours or just between certain hours throughout the day
  • However, with this, I can just provide an easy code and boom
  • The only downside is the delay in re-entering codes if you enter an incorrect code the first time.
  • Give your family their own code and never worry about losing a key again!
  • Also, I can set the codes to work only for specific duration, so the code expires when the week is up.

  • Work works great as long as you keep changing the batteries when it's cold
