Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love the ease of use with this lock. Simple installation. The only thing I would change is to have WIFI compatibility and Bluetooth. It would be nice to unlock or lock from anywhere.

I like that the bolt doesn't scream "smart lock, fancy stuff inside". I like that it was easy to install, easy to set up and easiest of all to use. I wish I had the ability to open the door at will remotely, incase I need to let someone in with a flip phone. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with the kevo lock, and for what I need it to do.

My kids kept forgetting their keys, but they ever seem to forget their phones. The Kevo lock was the perfect solution!

This is a great lock and works wonders with my Samsung Note 4 Edge. However, it doesn't work at all with my girlfriends LG G3. In fact she was locked out of the house the first day because I was at work and her phone wouldn't install the app. If this product worked on more phones it would be a 5 star. The nice thing about this product is that it was easy to install and took maybe 30 minutes to do that and pair up my phone. From the outside the only way you can tell it's a smart lock is by the blue light circle. But no one has mentioned anything when they come over. The inside of the door isn't a bad design either. It's kind of tall, but not overly so. It adds to the door, it doesn't detract. I'm not sure on the battery life yet, but it's been just over a month and it's going strong. The only downside so far (on my phone) is the app ALWAYS is showing in my notification bar. Even when it's turned off. I haven't figured out how to get rid of it.

We've been using Kevo, with the added adapter for remote access, for almost 2 years now and I couldn't imagine going back to life without a smartlock. I am VERY forgetful so it wasn't even a question that we needed this for peace of mind. Now, as long as I have my smartphone, I don't carry keys when I walk out of my house and lock up remotely when I've forgotten to lock the door or am in a rush to catch an Uber. Unfortunately just buying this lock won't get you the functionality most people are looking for in a smartlock. You have to upgrade to Kevo Plus, which is an adapter that acts as a hub to connect the lock to wifi and allows smartphone access. We tried to go without this and it really limited the usefulness of this lock. Still, it's well worth the investment. We were looking at the August lock because it seemed like it had a better app interface and more intuitive user experience, but in the end we felt that Kwikset's of its history in home security left our home feeling more protected. That was important in a big city like Los Angeles where home burglaries are frequent. PROs: - Met our HOA aesthetic guidelines, you can't even tell it's Kevo - Easy to send/remove e-keys to visiting friends/family - Has a physical e-key fob for our less techy visitors - Remote locking/unlocking for service professionals like dog walkers CONs: - Occasionally takes a few tries to work. Usually happens when the smartphone is in lock screen mode - Remote access fails if your home is experiencing a blackout - If your smartphone dies, you're stuck outside - Amazon Alexa commands are patterned weirdly. If I wanted to spend time to fix this, it can be done but it's not worth the effort for me since we don't really use this

So far, this product only work for iPhone 4s to newer. They are developing for Android but only bata program for Android 5.0 Lollipop (L). I was replace to this key from keypad and work fine and just normal deadlock and easy to replace it or install it. There is physical key come with smart key. This is the problem. Kwikset smartkey is good invenstion to re-key without locksmith. However this mecanisme weeks lock mechanism. There are force T-bar for specialy Kwikset and it can open just few second. If you have iPhone and choose convinient. This is product for you. I choosed convenient, alarm system do the rest.

I purchased two of these and, overall, like them. The design is good as is the fit and finish. I like that Kwikset decided to include their "smartkey" technology in these so that you can easily re-key the lock to match other locks or simply change the physical key. As far as the bluetooth, I like that these work with iOS or Android as well as the proprietary bluetooth fob. Functionally, the lock works as expected and I have no qualms recommending it to someone. However, there are a few complaints... 1) The lock takes a few seconds to open and doesn't always recognize my phone (iPhone). This is a minor annoyance, however, and doesn't always happen. 2) Installation was pretty straightforward, but the lock is extremely sensitive to a door that's not properly aligned. Even if your present deadbolt operates with ease and even if you can manually lock/unlock this lock without issue, the motor won't tolerate even minor friction. Installation in one door went fine, but in the other one, I simply couldn't get it to work properly and ended up replacing the entire door (frame and all) as I simply couldn't get it to align properly. 3) Kwikset claims this will "automatically" calibrate so that it won't lock if the fob or other bluetooth device is on the inside of the door (I.E., hanging on a keyhook or sitting on a counter). However, I've noticed that the lock will occasionally unlock when my iPhone is within range inside the house. It has to be fairly close, but from a security perspective, it's a concern nonetheless. 4) Electronic keys cost $1.99 each. That's a bit annoying as the lock includes only 1 fob and 2 electronic keys. Once purchased, they're permanent, but given the cost of the lock, they should include additional electronic keys. Finally, a nice feature would be adding wifi to the lock in addition to bluetooth so it can be operated and/or checked remotely. Personally, I'd be willing to sacrifice battery life for that feature. Overall, this is a good lock for someone looking at home automation or just the ease or "coolness" factor.

The lock is unpredictable at times. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. At times, the lock doesn't recognize the included key fob or the phone linked to the lock. When this happens, I have to reset the lock in order for it to work. I mainly purchased this lock for when guests arrive and I'm not home. It's worthless for them if it's not working. Also, sometimes the lock automatically locks when I leave and walk away, and sometimes it doesn't. This can be very frustrating. For a lock that costs over $200 w/ tax, I would expect it to work flawlessly. When it does work (about 80%-90% of the time), it's awesome.

This installed relatively easily - and so far the batteries have held out pretty well. This is great for our family as everyone has a smart phone that they can leave in their pocket and still open the door. The biggest drawbacks are: 1. It took probably 7-8 seconds to unlock or lock the door (while not a long time it sure feels like a delay) 2. It is not compatible with Android (one of my sons has a Samsung - yep he's the black sheep among the rest of us iPhone users). So we had to buy him an electronic key - which he promptly lost...He's never lost his phone..

So far everything with this lock is great. Setup was easy and it works as advertised. My only real issue is that it doesn't work with my Galaxy S4 but my phone will be upgraded soon anyway. It works very well with an iPhone 6, iPhone 5S and an iTouch. Great and easy for the kids!

I wouldnt recommend getting the the plus router it takes for ever to lock unlock and gives you an error so youll never know if it actually locked or unlocked the door but the deadbolt it self is nice and works 90 percent of the time.

Love this product!! Purchased a new oak front door for my house and this lock compliments it 100%. It is easy to install and configure, easy to sync to the app and easy to issue 'keys' to anyone you wish. The different levels of 'key' access are great and the fact that I can see who enters the house from the app is an excellent feature. It is a little expensive but the investment is worth it in my opinion. No fumbling for keys in the dark when you come home late at night, just touch the lock and the door opens, excellent!

Nice concept easy to install Just make sure you take your phone or keys with you all the time. I have bumped the lock going to the car and it locked behind me

I Love you my lock. Essy to use snd makes me feel safe. They also are very attractive. People think they are so nice!!

This smart lock is one of the best purchases we made for our new home! Don't even have to take my keys out of my purse to open my front door, it's such a help when your hands are full of groceries. It matches our door knob very well, it doesn't look too tech-y for anyone who wants to stay traditional. It's also a great conversation piece, guests are so fascinated by it.

I originally started my keyless entry journey with a 10 button lock. I'm glad I upgraded to a Kevo. The Kevo works great with iPhone 5S/5 and there are virtually no problems. It unlocks within 2-3 seconds and saves me from pulling out my keys. Sometimes it can take a little longer, but generally gets it right 90% of the time. On the other hand, I have multiple problems locking/unlocking the door with the iPhone 5C. If I get it to lock/unlock on the first try, I feel lucky. Usually it takes 2-4 tries at 5-7 seconds between each try. Now that Kevo lets you have 7 eKeys, this works great for sending to family and friends, and then revoking once they no longer need access. The SmartKey option is great. I had problems getting it to change to my previous key. At one point, neither key worked. If you do a search on how to re-key a smart key, you can get back in business without having to go to a locksmith. There are a few things that would be nice to add to the feature set, such as restricting access to certain hours of the day, or allowing for remote unlock, but it's got a pretty solid set of features as is, and is firmware update-able. I'll definitely be buying another one in the future, but maybe when there is a price drop or a sale happens.

I have two sons who are very forgetful but fret no more with this awesome lock sometime app can get a little tricky but overall great product I look forward to the upgrades

Works most of the time. Had to recalibrate it. Would not unlock one morning and we were stuck outside for about an hour

Was very easy to install and sync with phones. We've been using it for about 2 months and have had no problems with it recognizing my iPhone or my husband's Android. All we have to do is tap it once. Much easier than struggling with keys in the dark.

This is the coolest doorknob ever. Easy to use. Easy to setup.
