Schlage makes something similar. I have a Smartkey on the front door...as the guy above me mentioned, it's mechanical. You stick in the current key in, turn, stick the tiny ass rekey tool (IE, a thin piece of metal) into the rekey slot, remove old key, put in new key, turn 180 degrees, and it's rekeyed.

Before I bought it, I thought it was a stupid idea, but considering the number of contractors and such as we've had in the house in the 4 months we've owned it, it's become well used.

A friend of mine put one on his rental property. I don't remember the brand, but I thought the idea was great. That's a perfect use for that system.

The Kwikset 909 SmartCode Electronic Deadbolt featuring SmartKey is the Amazon deal of the day...the lock is normally around $100 and they are on sale today for $70.99

I would like to get one for the door from my garage into the house, but it only has a single knob...Would I have to drill another hole to be able to use this?

That is just a deadbolt. You will need quite a bit of work to install it in your current door.

Get the satin nickel

Agreed. It was made for stuff like that You don't have to worry about the doods making copies b/c it renders that moot.
