I cannot speak to any lock other than the Schlage Keypad Deadbolt. In addition, the motor may not last as long with more demand on the electrical parts. The newer sets will not keep a charge as long with the keypad and motor using juice. The same can be said for battery usage and lifespan of a door handle with a motor. If your door enters into a shared space like a living room or kitchen, the sound emitted by the lock will not make a difference at all. If you have a front door right next to a bedroom, even a white noise Dohm may not entirely cover the motor enthusiastically opening the front door. Observation #3: Your home’s floorplan matters. I plan on collecting a bigger sample of the sound coming out of more than just these two deadbolts.

Consider subscribing to the JustNeedsPaint YouTube channel to make sure you don’t miss the next keyless deadbolt video. I’ll be visiting with different lock companies with the intention to see how loud their deadbolts sound to make another video. Of course, you can use the key when you REALLY need stealth…Ĭompare this to the Schlage Keypad Deadbolt where you can easily control how loud or quiet you lock or unlock the door: slamming it open to announce your presence or using a ninja technique turning the knob oh-so-gently-and-silently.Īt the moment I can only give you two samples of sound, but I have a plan to get more. Need a way to sneak into the house (without using the key because that kind of defeats the purpose of this lockset)? Not so much with this Schlage Connect Smart Deadbolt.
