Lockey 3210DC

Nightmare

This has been the worst online shopping experience ever. I spent hundreds of dollars for a lock that does not work. It came with a marine coating that was already chipped and rusting. This company did not know how to give me tech support for setting the pins so the sent me to the parent company that was able to help me and had great service. But there were problems with the lock it does not lock from the outside which is a major security threat since I live in Los Angeles. This required me to get a refund from the company I bought it from Go keyless.. this is when the nightmare began, I have been chasing them down for over a month for a return slip that has never been sent to me. Don’t buy from Gokeyless. There customer service leaves you feeling like you are chasing down your ex for $375 dollars that the stoner dirtbag refuses to pay.

I had a lock smith install it for me on my cedar fence gate. I really love it. So easy to use and maintain. Having keypads on both sides is a great UX, and the ease of just turning the knob to re-lock without needing to type in a code to lock it is really simple. Provo designers and engineers!

Easy to install, followed the template to drill the holes. Was able to change the kog things with ease to make my own key code. I know can let me son play without having to worry if he will elope and get hurt.

This is not a perfect system, but it solved the one need I had which is open iron work on my gates, we have two of them. It was east for people to reach through the gate to get to the handset with my old setup and open the gates. This is a mechanical system, so easy to set up and use, but because it is manual, we have to clear it before use, not a big deal, one more button, but a electronic set would clear after a time away, I assume. What I wanted was a smart lock, like I have on the entry doors to the house, but no one seems to have a reliable outdoor model. if you are in the same situation as me, open ironwork, and no smartlock available, this is the best set up you can get.

I purchased and installed the Lockey 3210DC on my outside gate. The lock itself is quality, fully mechanical, easy to re-program, and has a nice feel to the keying and deadbolt action. It works well. The only reason it's not full 5 stars is that it appears to be somewhat less sturdy and possibly easier to break/rip off compared, for example, to the old Schlager I had in place. The Lockey's both halves/sides are connected and held against the door frame with two relatively small gauge screws, and furthermore there are black rubber spacers between each half and the door frame, presumably for weather sealing. These spacers effectively create a soft gap between the lock and the door frame, which could be straight forward to exploit by sliding a pry bar into it and ripping the lock off by breaking the connecting screws. For comparison, the old lock metal body was flush against the door frame, and the connecting screws were heavy gauge, making the whole thing considerably harder to compromise. The deadbolt itself is plenty sturdy and not a problem, and the weakness in this case seems to be in the way the lock body is mounted. So in my case, the Lockey provides more convenience and functionality, but a bit less security overall, which is fine for an outside gate, but could be an issue for other locations.
