what would you suggest doing to keep people from seeing you key in your code (i live in a town house)

If you have not purchased the Kwikset 907 yet, don't. 1..... To your specific question: It is difficult to cover the keypad with one hand and fumble to feel the number touchpads with a finger on other hand. 2..... I removed the lock within few months and replace the old key only dead bolt. The Kwikset 907 couldn't "remember" the code sequence for more than 2-3 weeks, and had to take it apart as often to realign the bolt. 3.... conclusion: I recommend looking in recent Consumer Reports for locks that are better built and more secure. If you have already purchased it, try to return it for credit towards a better more secure lock, or do your best by holding a paper in front of it while you press the buttons.

As R. Dilmore suggested if you stand close to the lock someone would have to be standing behind you, looking over your shoulder to see you enter the code. Most people would have to clearly see you enter the code more than once to remember the sequence and how many times you pressed each button.

I saw that, too and I have kwikset locks on my house prior to watching that video. what would be nice is if the lock would alert you if someone tried to break into your house using that method.

I'm sorry I didn't have mine long enough to even feel a need for a security code. Just call Amazon. The guys and girls that work in there will have it figured out before you would even have the time to read the manual. My advise sorry, Amazon put it back in the box and send it to where it came from. lol. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year...

No. Shutting the door sets the mechanism to lock down. So anybody wanting to enter has to tap a code. But, I would strongly discourage you to buy this lock. Mine failed and broke a few months after I bought it, long past it's warranty. It's money thrown away. I bought the Schlage and has never given us any problems.

there is no code protection when you start the device. but you can set up wifi password as same as wifi router to prevent strangers.

I don't see anyway you could disable it from the inside. It would have to be keyed entry on both sides for that to work. Sorry. :(

In addition to other answer, you can program the button to go just to you or someone else. That way you can find out immediately if it is going to be a problem. You can also turn that button off.

Key code? They are a simple key lock. Unless u are referring to the key style .

No, it comes with a code as well as a key? I keep the code in a secure place and the key with me.

They can use your cell phone. I dont think that would be a good Idea alot of the time we could not call into the house number so you would get to know local police if you cant anwser your phone to give code security calls them. Call customer service they make you wait two hours and I hope thats not your only phone then you cant call at all. They have done nothing to get ahold of me about my service and its been a month. I let email and still have gotton no calls so good luck....

If the key pad is on the outside of the room you are in and no one else has the code

Yes! When you open the front door it's down on the lower left side. You need to enter a password to keep others from viewing it. It's only for the eyes of the beholder.

You have to make up your own code. pick any 4 digits and hold the lock while inputting. then let go. you will have to remember the code.

That's why you put one of the keys in a secure location outside of the house. In my case I put a key in a Supra lockbox in an out-of-the-way location that's not so obvious

You can program the codes on the lock itself or through the micaseverde web dashboard. It works either way. I set mine up on the lock before I had really messed with the mios dashboard.

Mine is mounted with decent-sized screws to a concrete wall, and the case itself seems pretty tough. It would be hard to pry off, and would hopefully draw some attention from the neighbors, but I'm sure it's possible. With 12 buttons there are also only 4096 combinations, so someone could also defeat it that way. But it's a lot better than hiding a key. For that matter, what's to prevent someone from prying your door open?

Just to throw this out there, hiding your SSID doesn't actually do anything. Anybody can still see it if they use some simple software. If you want security, make sure you use the right encryption protocol, and a very long password (preferably a randomly generated one).
