Schlage warranty for smart locks
The short version
Schlage doesn't cover everything, but keeps mechanical parts and finish and electronics covered for life. That full coverage is the same as most of the 12 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Schlage's published warranty, checked October 2026.
