Great lock, easy to install
I purchased a house and the owners didn’t know where the keys were because they always used a code to enter. I decided to change the deadbolt that they had and added this one. It works great, it’s easy to program codes into, the instructions were clear and concise. I now have the option to use a key or the keypad.

A Key Addition to Our Home
Ease of installation:I am not the best nor the worst at installing things around the house. I was expecting this to be a headache, but after watching some videos, I had this one set up within an hour.Reliability:It has worked every day since installation, with one minor hiccup in the first few days, where it would not open. I ended up having to use my key in that instance. The lockout may have been caused by my child repeatedly hitting the wrong buttons as she tried to let us in. I recommend keeping the key with you as a backup.Battery life:It is still working after a few months without issue. I will update my review if it suddenly stops working. Again, keep your key with you just in case.Verdict:The Kwikset Powerbolt 250 has been a game-changer for my family, and I only wish I had thought to install one sooner. It has made getting in and out of the house way less of a pain, especially at night. The buttons light up, making fumbling for a key a thing of the past. My six-year-old daughter knows the code as well, and she enjoys opening the door for us. My wife and daughter went for a walk the other day while I worked in the backyard, and they didn’t feel the need to carry their keys, knowing they could easily get back in, and I had my key in the backyard as a backup. There is a function to add a one-time code for someone making a delivery or doing work on your home, but I have not tried that yet.

Keypad, & Keyed Deadbolt
I have two of these deadbolts, & two of the keypad door locks. They are dependable, easy to install, & use.Even if the battery dies, they can be locked, & unlocked with with a key. This deadbolt, can also be re-keyed for additional security. I originally purchased this to allow a visiting family member to come & go without having to issue them a key. Another great feature is you can have different combinations for different purposes; one can be issued to a guest, another can be given to a contractor, & one for yourself. At any point, any, or all, combination(s) can be deleted, or reset to another combination.The instructions that come with this are easy to understand, and make the installation a breeze.It is very easy to add your own code for this deadbolt.It can also have a time delay lock feature so after you close the door & it will automatically lock the deadbolt.All features are easy to use, & setup. I would recommend these to anyone for their entry doors.These are reasonably priced, & dependable.I would recommend these to anyone who wants to have the ability to give a temporary code to a guest, or contractor while retaining your own code combination.The batteries seem to last a long time, especially since there are four “AA” batteries used for this deadbolt.It’s not only functional, but it looks appealing on our door. The pictures I have included show additional door hardware that is not included. This kit includes the deadbolt itself with a battery compartment, @ a keypad, section. It also includes all the necessary hardware to install this on your door. My installation was easy because I was replacing an existing deadbolt.I have included a picture that shows the indoor door knob, that is NOT INCLUDED, with this deadbolt. I added this just to show that it can be used with an optional door knob.

Lock only worked for one hour
Installed the lock on door connecting house to garage. Install didn’t require any modification to the door, but the lock wouldn’t let me program any codes. Tried all of the various programming options and the only one that worked was the one that turned off the annoying beeping. AI customer support just told me to do all the things I had already done. Finally got through to a real person, she had me do a program-clearing step that wasn’t mentioned in the directions and the lock then would accept new codes and worked… for about one hour. Then it refused to lock or unlock the deadbolt.Called CS again, this time refused to deal with AI and got to a real person. She first told me the through bolts that hold the keypad and locking plate on opposite sides of the door were too tight. Loosened them, no change in lock behavior. Then she told me I was using the WRONG BRAND OF BATTERIES!!! (Say, What?!) I said I had put brand new AA batteries in it and had tested them all before installation and they worked fine for the first hour. Furthermore, nowhere in the instructions did it say I had to use a particular brand of AAs. She said to get some Duracell or Energizer batteries and then call CS back.When I went to HD to get some other batteries, I also picked up a digital lock made by the S company. The Duracell batteries didn’t work any better than the Amazon batteries I used before. Tired of calling CS; just took the lock out and installed the S lock, which works just fine. Returning Kwikset to Amazon and will be avoiding Kwikset locks in the future, at least the digital ones.

It’s so nice not to have to find a key to come in.
We bought three of these after staying at an airbnb a month ago. We loved it so much we bought one for all our doors. Two worked fine, one didn’t work correctly. Of the two that worked, they were easy to install, easy to program and they are so easy to use. It was also easy to rekey one to the other, so we only need one key, just in case the battery dies or it malfunctions. Anyway, a nice upgrade to our old locks, almost like we’re in the 21 century. Only got 4 stars because we had to send one back.

Don’t wait, you must purchase this now
I always wanted one of these. Finally got one. It is so convenient. Works great and it’s really compatible to my huge Cherrywood doorLooks sleek. Fits well. Connect to my Wi-Fi. It is so nice to come home from shopping with five bags in my hand and not having to dig for my door keys. I don’t know why I waited so long to get this installed. PS an installation was a easy and fast.

Easy to install and works as expected. I’m not sure why most people would need multiple access codes, but the option is there, and the single-use codes are a nice feature. The auto-lock function has been reliable, which adds peace of mind. Overall, a straightforward and functional electronic deadbolt. If you try too many times, it does lock out which is a nice feature.

For the past 10 years, I have used similar Kwikset locks on 4 of my outside doors and they have proven very reliable. About 6 months ago, added this one to door #5 and it works just as well as the others with the added benefit of being a little smarter/easier to set up, and needing one less button to push to operate it. As well, the mechanism is noticeably faster to lock/unlock. [FYI: if you use the recommended ordinary alkaline batteries, they will last about 2 years. If you try rechargeables (like I did) they last about 2 months. I have no idea why.]

La compré en enero 2025, y todo muy bien fácil de instalar, configurar y todo, pero hace un mes dejó de funcionar, la restauré de fábrica y nada, simplemente dejó de funcionar ahora es una cerradura como cualquier otra es una pena que haya durado tan poco el gusto
