SCHLAGE Camelot FE595 Keypad Entry with Flex-Lock - Antique Brass

In this review of the SCHLAGE FE595 CAM 609 Camelot keypad entry, the bottom line is simple: this lock is for homeowners or landlords who want reliable, professional-grade keyless access without complicated setup. It ships preset with two user codes and a six-digit programming code, so it is ready to install and use right away. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a sturdy adjustable deadbolt for security and the Flex-Lock option that lets you choose manual or automatic re-locking, giving straightforward convenience and peace of mind.

Key Features

• Ready to use out of the box: The lock arrives with a 6 digit programming code and two pre set 4 digit user codes so initial setup is minimal and quick.
• Flexible locking: The Flex-Lock feature lets users switch between unlocked or automatic re locking with the turn of a button, adapting to different daily routines.
• Professional grade security: A large adjustable bolt increases resistance to kick ins, making this a strong choice for exterior entries and rental units.
• Visible at night: Silicone rubber buttons with LED backlight make the keypad easy to read and use in low light without fumbling for keys.
• Keyless convenience: Eliminates the need to carry or hide keys and allows easy code management right at the keypad for adding or removing users.
• Includes power and codes: The package includes a 9 volt battery and the preset codes so you can install and operate immediately.

Who It's For

This keypad is well suited to homeowners, landlords, and anyone who needs secure, keyless access for back, side or garage doors, as well as offices, workout rooms or wine cellars. Because it offers a larger adjustable bolt and a professional grade build, it's a good pick where increased resistance to forced entry is a priority.

People who want smart home connectivity or biometric entry should look elsewhere; this unit focuses on straightforward keypad access and mechanical reliability rather than app control or integrations. If you need dozens of user codes or remote management, consider a different electronic lock platform built for networked access.
