SCHLAGE FB50NVGEO716 Georgian Entry Deadbolt Lock, Aged Bronze

Basic front door lock that is very strong and elegant looking. I'm happy I bought this for my entry door.

Great Lock, easy install,

Smooth operating lock. Door automatically unlocks from inside when knob is turned.

Works as advertised but you can get a better price at Home Depot. Original purchase stated overnight delivery which was changed to 5 days later

The Schlage lock set is made of quality heavy duty materials and puts the Kwikset brand lock set originally installed to shame. I will definitely buy again.This lock set unlocks itself when the interior knob is turned vs. having to manually unlock before the knob will turn. I prefer to have the interior knob not turn when the lock set is locked. It's just a personal preference, but I may learn to like it. Only time will tell.

Schlage is my favorite brand of door hardware. In my younger years as a Carpenter, I would work on Condos in the bay area, and all I did for 1 year was hang interior and exterior doors in the units we were remodeling. This is with trim and door hardware. Maybe hard to believe (even for me to think I did this many) but I have hung over 1000 doors with all everything included. You get pretty good at something with repetition. Schlage was the prefered lockset and passage hardware. Very quick and easy to install. No granted, I was do this for my job 40 hours a week, but my crew would race to see how many properly hung doors we could install a day without any mistakes. Now as far as door knobs were concerned, we got down to 4 minutes for an install, and schlage always worked better than any other brand. Plus... a little secret... you can get a copy of a key for a schlage, on a Baldwin key blank, which is a wider key and has more torque than a schlage key. A nice little extra for you client, or for yourself.

Excellent lock! I locked myself out of my house and had to pay $150 to get a locksmith to try and pick it. When he came out he saw it was a shlage and told me he'll probably have to drill it out, they're very hard to pick. Well, that's what happened. He attempted to pick it for 30 minutes and couldn't get in. He eventually had to drill it out, even that wasn't easy for him. 5 stars for the lock, 1 star for my procrastination. Buy the lock, then go and get spare keys made so you don't make my mistake!

Easy installation and fluid operation.
