Is the Schlage Encode Lever Warrantied for Gate Use?

No, the Schlage Encode Lever (model FE789), as well as other Schlage residential locks, are not rated or warrantied for use on exterior gates. These smart locks are not built to withstand outdoor elements such as extreme temperatures, rain, snow, or prolonged exposure to moisture.

If you install the Schlage Encode Lever on an uncovered external gate exposed to weather conditions, the lock’s warranty will be voided. This lock is specifically designed for use on interior residential doors or front doors with a covered entryway.

For more warranty information, please review the Schlage Residential Warranty.
