Schlage - Smart Lock
Schlage Encode Smart WiFi Deadbolt
Schlage Encode Century illustration — exterior only, not a photo or full kit
Is it right for your home?
Replacing a compatible door's deadbolt with keypad entry and app-managed access through the Encode BE489 family. Plan for four AA alkaline batteries, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and a door prepared to the manufacturer's dimensions; check fit before choosing the finish or seller package.
Before you choose: conditions & sources
When to compare another option
Compare a retrofit option if you must retain the existing exterior lock. This is Encode BE489, not Encode Plus. Misaligned doors, altered holes or thick-door hardware need their own assessment; a wireless connection does not fix mechanical fit. Ask a locksmith if door preparation is uncertain.
FlowHome interpretation of the documentation below, not hands-on testing or a guarantee for your setup. Source dates are documentation checks, not confirmation of today's firmware or seller package.

First setup check
Encode BE489 replaces the deadbolt; it does not retain the existing exterior lock like a retrofit accessory. Standard fit is a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick door with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset (door edge to hole center). Measure before buying.

Installation checks
FlowHome setup assessment: Mounting or guided setup. This is our estimate from the requirements below, not a hands-on test or a guarantee of difficulty.
- Encode BE489 replaces the deadbolt; it does not retain the existing exterior lock like a retrofit accessory. Standard fit is a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick door with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset (door edge to hole center). Measure before buying.
- This guided-setup assessment assumes a compatible, already-prepared door. Check the manufacturer's door-preparation guide and bolt alignment; door or frame alterations need a separate assessment. Ask a locksmith if unsure, and confirm any thick-door kit with Schlage rather than assuming it is included.
- The lock uses four AA alkaline batteries, not household hardwiring. Plan 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi coverage and Schlage Home app setup. These requirements concern Encode BE489, not Encode Plus; seller package contents and actual door fit have not been physically checked.
Documented model: BE489WB CEN 622. Target market: US. Follow the manufacturer instructions for your exact hardware and household.
