- Is this lock worth it over a smart lock?
- If the door has no power nearby or you don't want batteries and apps, yes. A mechanical keypad keeps working in outages and costs less than most smart locks. You give up remote access, schedules and entry logs.
- Does it need batteries or wiring?
- No. The buttons mechanically set the pins, and the lever releases the latch. Nothing to charge or connect.
- Can I use it on a metal gate?
- It is designed for gates and exterior doors, but the gate frame must be solid enough for a 1.27 kg lock and the latch must line up. Check the door thickness and backset before buying.
- How many codes can I set?
- Mechanical push-button locks typically hold one user code plus the key override. To change it you remove the lock and reposition the internal pins.
- What's in the box?
- The handle lock, keys, mounting hardware and instructions. A strike plate and latch are included for standard door prep.
- When is it cheapest?
- Only one store lists it new, at $115.99 at Amazon as of November 4, 2026. Watch for seasonal tool and hardware sales rather than expecting a broad price spread.
