Just be sure that the one you are looking at has a keypad not a touch screen. They make both types. We dealt with a company called Dorr Locks Direct. You might get the lock slightly cheaper from amazon, but this company has excellent customer service. I called at one point and the person seemed to really know what they were talking about and was very helpful in getting me the right lock for my situation. I hope this helps.
