help Schlage Encode Plus Smart WiFi Deadbolt FAQ
Does the Schlage Encode Plus work with Apple Home Key?
Yes. The Schlage Encode Plus supports Apple Home Key, so compatible iPhone and Apple Watch users can unlock by tapping the lock through Apple Wallet. That is the key difference from the older Schlage Encode model.
Does the Encode Plus need a separate Wi-Fi bridge?
No. The Encode Plus has built-in Wi-Fi, so it can connect directly to your home network without a separate bridge. It can also be used through Apple Home, depending on your smart home setup.
Is the Schlage Encode Plus useful for Airbnb guest codes?
Yes. It has a built-in keypad, so hosts can create access codes instead of handing out physical keys. Many short-term rental owners use keypad deadbolts because codes can be changed between stays.
What door hardware does the Encode Plus replace?
It replaces your existing deadbolt hardware rather than sitting over it. That makes it different from retrofit locks like the August Wi-Fi Smart Lock, which usually keep the exterior key cylinder in place.
