How Long Will The Battery Last for my Premis Lock?

4xAA batteries are expected to last up to a year based on 10 entries per day. However, misaligned doors where the lock faces resistance during lock/unlocking will shorten the battery life since the motor uses more power to exercise the latch. In addition, properly “handing” or calibrating the lock as outlined in the installation guide will maximize the battery life. Refer to the step 5 in the installation instructions.

On my Kevo Smart Lock, Why Didn't My Batteries Last As Long As They Should Have?

Battery life is estimated at 1 year based on 10 uses per day. The more that the Kevo is used, the lower the overall battery life. The highest drain on your batteries within the Kevo system is the motor that drives the lock mechanism. Make sure that the deadbolt and strike are aligned properly so that there is no unnecessary resistance, as this will make the motor work harder to lock/unlock and will drain the batteries more quickly. Also, make sure that you use all new batteries and not a combination of new and used batteries.

The Batteries In Kevo Convert Run Low – Quickly. Possible Reasons Why?

Due to temperature changes and humidity, doors can become ‘warped’. This is common and more likely for older doors. If that happens, the deadbolt and the strike plate could be misaligned, so the deadbolt might not extend freely into the strike hole. As a result, there could be strong ‘friction’ as the deadbolt tries to extend. The friction between the bolt and the strike can impact the battery performance of Kevo Convert. More friction means that the motor needs to work harder to lock your door, so your battery life may be impacted. To improve your battery life, make sure you adjust your door prep for the least amount of friction possible. Follow the steps in the Warped Door Kit Installation Guide
