SoHoMiLL® Electronic Keypad Door Knob SoHo Mill® and Lock Set with Backup Mechanical Key (Spring Latch Lock; Not Deadbolt; Not Phone Connected), Single Front keypad YL 99 Upgraded Model-B

I bought this lock for my home office door. I sometimes travel and need to be able to lock it while my house is being taken care of by others. It went in pretty easily. I like being able to put in eight combinations/passcodes. I also like being able to leave it unlocked. To someone who doesn't know the lock it still appears to be locked but a user knows that all one has to do is touch one key to open in this mode. So, I leave it this way most of the time and if someone breaks into my home, it will appear to be locked. Super cool. This lock is very sturdy and operates smoothly. NICE. I was very surprised. Great value for the money.

I bought two of these security key door knobs over two years ago. They’re worth every penny spent. Plumbers and flood damaged floors are expensive fixes. Our purpose of installing these was to keep our ASD kiddo out of our bathrooms unsupervised. Everything about this product has worked well. Battery last a long time, easy to install, size fits a standard small inside door and it doesn’t fail. The only issues we’ve ran into were user errors. Like the time my spouse left the door open and chaos followed. Or the time I accidentally programmed one of the door knobs wrong, because the kid figured out the code and I had to reprogram both of them… So about that! I noticed one of the knobs was allowing entry with partial code input. I thought it was broken and reached out to the company. Excellent costumer service! The video I sent was seen by their tech team and they were able to explain that it was user error on my part. To just reprogram it because I had accidentally put it in passive mode. The fact that they were so prompt in their response and helpful I appreciate immensely. For me a company that stands by their product and is responsive to their customers makes it worth everything! Takeaway: I would absolutely buy again. Just don’t be like me and loose the instructions and go off your memory if you’re reprogramming the code. You may do it wrong, but at least this company has your back as they did send me a digital copy of the instructions. This shows how easy installation is though, because I was able to remember (2 years later even) the sequence to program it and one out of the two knobs was working fine. I’d give this product and its company more than 5 stars if I could. Highly recommended

I've been using the previous version of this lock multiple times a day for around 10 years without fail. I would still be using this lock if I hadn't been too lazy to change the batteries and left the battery pack in the room I unlocked. In the decade of service, it never once failed to secure the room or unlock (as long as it had battery power). The battery life varied from lasting about a year to slightly less, depending on the brand. It gives you plenty of warning when the battery pack is low, so the mishap is all my fault. The keypad is easy to read in any light condition and never failed to light up. I had to actually cut the keypad off with a Sawzall to get it open, and that took five minutes, so the lock is durable. I replaced my old lock with one that is only five years old, and I have absolutely no worries about security or function on any permutation of this excellent lock.

Was easy to install and worked great for 3 months. Now it is not unlocking after the code is entered. It beeps correctly to indicate the code worked, but knob is not engaging to unlock. Update: Thought it stopped working as the lights were still on. Then read the manual and replace the batteries that had come with the lock. It is working now. Batteries that came with the lock worked for only about 3 months.

December 2019: used for 6 months now and we absolutely love this door knob. It's easy to install and use and we have found it to be very secure. I haven't had any issues and have been using it for at least 6 months so far. I am actually using this on an exterior side door and I love that my daughter can get inside safely at night and quickly without fumbling for keys. The keypad lights up, you can program multiple access codes so everyone has their own and it's super easy to setup and install. I highly recommend it for both internal and external use (if it’s a covered area protected from rain/snow etc.) It's been great for us!! I’ll be sure to update along the way. ***Update Edit***We have now been using this for quite a while now. The original purchase was July 2019,, installed upon receiving, and we still love it and have never had any issues at all with it and it’s now November 2023! We now use it on the small entry door that goes from our garage into the house. I absolutely love having the security of knowing even if someone gets in my garage, they won’t be getting inside my home. I highly recommend to anyone looking for something like this. To anyone having code issues: definitely read the instructions and if still having issues I’d refer you to go to the sellers website. This company makes a very well Made product and is hey stand behind it as well.. so I guess we have been using it 4.5 years now and can tell you a couple things concerning codes: the code you received is your master code and should be changed to your own secure master code upon receipt. You should keep your master code safe and put away so as not to forget it and you shouldn’t use it as your daily use code. You should make daily use codes using the instructions provided. It’s very easy once you’ve done it a couple times. Also, I’ve seen some people say they put their backup key in safes or other safe places. You should carry this key on your key ring. Should your batteries ever fail, you’re gonna need it accessible and not locked away somewhere.

Excellent quality and very easy to install

Bought the first one 18 months ago. Worked well enough before the mechanical catch to turn the lock started failing to engage. Bought a second one and it lasted 2 days before the keypad stopped working and the seller didn't respond to emails.

Excellente poignée, facile à installer. Très robuste, fonctionne très bien après deux mois d'utilisation.

it did not last well

Great craftsmanship. Very pleased.......
