:)) good one. Did not see this one coming love it.
Yes that would be the best way is to run it through a routine or use CoRE to unlock it when the steel door is unlocked and vice versa. Lock it when the steel door is locked. Stay safe.
With the Schlage Connect, can you change the 30-second auto-lock default to something else?
Unfortunately no, Schlage doesnât allow that setting to be changed. You could add a door contact though and have it trigger the lockset based on when you close the door instead. I just live with the 30 seconds because my ST hub wasnât reliable enough with closing the lock every time. I preferred to know it was always locking.

I donât have a Schlage lock, but on my Kwikset lock, there is a dip-switch that enables/disables the internal auto-lock function. I disabled the dip-switch and use a CoRE Piston to lock the door if the lock remains unlocked for 5 minutes:
This setup has never failed. But just in case, I also have a second Piston that checks to see if the door is locked every night just before bedtime and if itâs not, it sends a lock command. In 8 months, this backup Piston has never needed to be executed - but itâs there just in case.

Iâve also got a different one and Iâm hoping it wouldnât be too hard. I would love if it was possible to automatically run a routine on a lock press on the outside if only one phone was home. So that I didnât have to wait for the house to be in away mode.
just curious⊠why do you need to wait for AWAY?
The way I set my house to away mode now is âAutomatically when everyone leavesâ So with my built in delay and me having to leave my geofence it takes a little bit for the house to actually go into away mode via the goodbye routine. If I could attach a condition to the key lock press then it would be instantaneous.

In the next release weâll be proving an option to select to only run the routines if specific list of people arenât present. Iâm guessing that would address your use case.

Closing the loop, both these features are possible now. You can have upto 3 schedules per user.
Why does the app check on the health of the cloud? What is gained? If the cloud goes down doesnât the app go down?
Itâs not checking the health of the cloud, itâs checking the health of the SmartApp state and doing housekeeping activites (like maintaining user schedules, checking for pending actions, updates etc). Keeping the users on schedule and stable/reliable is extremely important, hence the regular health check.
Thanks for the reply
Enhancement request:
For the Lock Single User Code Management smartApp.
I use the feature to set a quick code for a friend to help with pets, I like the expire date/time feature
However When the code is used, I have no way of knowing.
Could you add the ability to enable a PUSH Notification to be sent for the code/slot was used, that either displays a custom message or the defined App Message? Would also be nice if a name could be assigned/aliased to the slot.
When I test the code entered⊠It will say âFront Door was unlocked by Unknown User from Slot 3 via keypadâ.
If I could name Slot 3 as âMaidâ, that would be helpful to other people in the household that are not accustom to using STâs and do not really understand what âSlot 3â means.
Its already there, just enable the notify option against each user slot.
Im assuming that you arenât programming the lock manually and that ALL programming is done through the SmartApp. If so, then this a bug with your lock, it isnât reporting the user slot number used to unlock the door.
Mine is saying the same unknown user from slot 2, but there is a name in there.
So youâre getting a slot number but the name isnât showing up, is that correct? If so please PM me your IDE Live logs to check out.
EDIT: Are you on the latest version of the SmartApp?
for others to see and compare againstâŠ
Using the âLock single user code managementâ smartApp
However if I used the âLock multi user code management with notifications and automatic relockâ smartApp, then I would see the username because it is a field inputed in the preferences

Thatâs correct since the Single User Management SmartApp doesnât keep track of users (itâs a one shot programming app with no memory) it doesnât know which âuserâ has operated the lock, just the slot number. Where as the Multi User Management has a âmemoryâ and retains the list (plus a ton of other things) it does display the username.
