Do I need a hub or bridge?

No. Wi-Fi is built into the lock, so it joins your home network directly. You only need the Schlage Home app and a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network.

Does it work with Alexa and Google?

Yes, it works with Alexa and Google Assistant for voice lock and status checks. It does not support Apple HomeKit.

How long do the batteries last?

Schlage rates it around six months on four AA batteries, but owners with heavy Wi-Fi use often report less. The app shows battery level.

Can I still use a key?

Yes. It ships with a physical key and a standard keyway, so you can open it if the battery dies or Wi-Fi is down.

Is the $169 price a good one?

It is the best new price found as of November 8, 2026, at eBay, with two stores listing it new. The Encode usually sells in the $170 to $200 range, so this is near the low end.
