How Schlage Sense Works on Your Door
Schlage Sense is a keypad deadbolt that lets you unlock the door with an access code or a physical key. It also connects with a compatible phone through Bluetooth and can be set up to work with Apple HomeKit. The keypad lets authorized users enter without carrying a key, while the deadbolt secures the door in the usual way.
When you call about a Schlage Sense reset, setup, or a lock that will not respond, we can check the lock, door alignment, batteries, and setup. We come to you to install the lock, address a problem, rekey it when appropriate, or help with the setup. For other Schlage options, visit our Schlage locksmith page.
Who Schlage Sense Suits—and When to Choose Another Lock
You want keyless entry at home
Schlage Sense may suit you if you want to unlock the deadbolt with a code instead of handing out extra keys. You can keep a physical key available as another way to operate the lock.
You want phone-based control at the door
Its Bluetooth connection and Apple HomeKit compatibility may fit a household that wants to use a compatible phone as part of its lock setup. Your phone and home setup need to be compatible with the features you want to use.
You need a different style of lock or access system
If you do not want a keypad deadbolt or need a different type of access solution, tell us what the door needs. We can discuss alternatives, including the Schlage B60, before you decide.

Schlage Sense Installation, Rekeying, and Repair
- Install the lock — For Schlage Sense installation, we come to your door and check the existing door preparation, deadbolt fit, and alignment. We install the lock and help with basic setup.
- Rekey the lock — If you want a different key to operate the lock, ask about a Schlage Sense rekey. We can assess the lock and handle the rekeying at your location; learn more about our rekeying service.
- Address keypad or locking problems — We inspect issues such as an unresponsive keypad, a bolt that does not move smoothly, or a lock that does not behave as expected. We check the lock and the door rather than treating every symptom as the same fault.
- Help with codes and setup — We can assist with setup and explain owner-level code management. Keep your programming information private, and contact us if you are locked out or cannot complete the setup.
- Replace or check batteries — We can check the battery compartment and help with battery-related problems. If the lock still acts up after fresh batteries, we can inspect the lock and door in person.
Common Schlage Sense Problems Owners May Notice
The keypad does not respond
Check that the batteries are seated correctly and have charge. If the keypad remains unresponsive, the lock may need an on-site inspection.
The bolt feels stiff or will not extend
A deadbolt can bind when it does not line up cleanly with the door frame. We check the door and bolt alignment as well as the lock itself.
The phone and lock do not connect
Bluetooth range, phone settings, or setup can affect the connection. The keypad and physical key provide other ways to operate the lock while you check the app connection.
A code is not accepted
Confirm that you are entering a code that has been added to the lock and that you are following the lock’s normal instructions. If you cannot manage the codes or the keypad continues to reject a known code, call us for help.

Frequently asked questions
How do I set or change a Schlage Sense code I already know?
Use the lock’s owner instructions and programming information to add or change a code through the keypad or compatible setup. Follow the steps for your lock, and do not share your programming information with anyone you do not authorize. Call us if the lock will not accept the change.
How often do Schlage Sense batteries need to be changed?
Battery life varies with use and conditions, so there is no single interval that fits every home. Replace the batteries when the lock indicates they are low or its operation changes, and use the battery type specified in the product instructions.
Can Schlage Sense fit a door that already has a deadbolt?
It may fit, but the existing door preparation, door thickness, and bolt alignment need to suit the lock. We can check the door at your location and handle installation if the fit is appropriate.
How do I add a user or guest to Schlage Sense?
An authorized owner can add an access code using the lock’s normal programming process or compatible app setup. Give each guest only the access you intend them to have, and remove codes you no longer want active.
What happens if the power or batteries run out?
Schlage Sense runs on batteries, so replace depleted batteries according to the product instructions. The lock also has a physical key option; keep the key accessible in case the keypad cannot operate. If you are locked out, call MD Locksmith at (240) 366-2739.
