Craig - whatup from Chicago :) I have the Schlage lock and have been pretty pleased b/c it's very easy, user friendly and intuitive. I use the Nexia bridge to control it. Remote unlock, lock, delete access, setup access times, etc. All very affordable and intuitive. Can be controlled from your phone. The only issue for me is the 30 code limit. I'd rather not have members sharing codes so that it's easier to track access, and who has been in and out (if needed).
