The Hubitat Lock Code Manager app allows you to add and manage users on supported locks, set access limits or completely block access privileges. Keypads are also supported.

Installing Hubitat Lock Code Manager

  1. From the sidebar of your hub, select Apps and press the Add Built-In App button.

Renaming users

  1. On first run, Lock Code Manager attempts to automatically import existing codes from your locks and keypads. If no existing codes have been imported, an option to manually retrieve codes will appear.
    • NOTE: Please remember that while locks may support up to 8 digits, stand-alone keypads only support 4 digit codes.

  2. Imported codes will not have names associated unless programmed via the driver in advance. Lock Code Manager allows you to easily assign and change names.
    • NOTE: Schlage locks do not allow the export of any existing codes. To use Lock Code Manager with Schlage locks, it is recommended to delete the existing codes on the lock and instead enter them via Lock Code Manager or the lock driver so they will be readable by Lock Code Manager.
