Most Schlage Z-Wave Locks will work with nearly any Z-Wave controller. These locks can be easily paired with a Z-Wave hub just like any other Z-Wave device. If you have a Schlage Z-Wave Lock paired with your system, there is a chance that you may need to perform a factory default for the device at some point. This is usually because the lock is malfunctioning or because you are planning to sell the lock. Defaulting a lock may be able to fix certain issues, but you really only want to try it as a last resort. Additionally, defaulting a lock is also a good idea if you are giving the lock to someone else so that they can start with fresh factory settings.

In order to factory default a Schlage Lock, you must hold down the Schlage button while power is being reapplied to the device. In other words, power down the lock, and then power it back on while holding down the Schlage button. The lock will blink three (3) times to confirm a successful factory reset. Before doing this, you will want to make sure that you have the default codes for the lock. These are the codes that the lock will be set to after you perform the reset. You can find these codes on a white sticker located underneath the device's main cover. Remember, you cannot "undo" a factory reset after it has been performed. Make absolutely sure you want to factory default your Schlage Z-Wave Lock before you do this.
