TEEHO TE003 Keypad Door Knob, Satin Nickel, One-Time Codes & Auto-Lock
Product description
The TEEHO TE003 has a satin nickel finish and a keypad door-knob format that combines code entry with the familiar operation of a handle. It supports up to 20 individual user codes, one-time passcodes, and two physical backup keys, giving households and property managers options for everyday entry and temporary access.
For a bedroom or home office, the interior knob provides a straightforward way to lock the door for privacy. For a rental room or shared entry, individual and one-time codes offer a practical alternative to handing out a physical key.
Best use cases
Use the TE003 on a compatible front, back, side, garage, bedroom, or office door when keypad access suits the routine. A one-time code can be assigned to a guest, cleaner, or service person, while up to 20 user codes support regular access for different people. Passage Mode keeps the door unlocked during periods of frequent entry, such as moving items or hosting guests.
The lock is designed for standard U.S. wood and metal doors with a 2-1/8-inch hole, a 2-3/8-inch or 2-3/4-inch backset, and a thickness of 1-3/8 to 2 inches. Installation uses a screwdriver and does not require drilling. This makes it a useful choice when replacing a compatible door knob, rather than selecting a lock for a door with different measurements.

Strengths
Flexible access is the main advantage: permanent user codes cover routine use, while one-time codes suit short visits without relying on a shared everyday code. Anti-peeping password entry lets users add random digits around the actual password, helping make code entry less visible to someone nearby. The backlit keypad supports entry in low light, and a battery indicator signals when power is running low.
Auto-lock can be set between 10 and 99 seconds, or left off, and one-touch locking is activated by holding any keypad number for two seconds. The interior knob also allows a quick manual lock. IP54 weather resistance and the satin nickel finish suit a range of residential entry points, while Passage Mode is handy when a door needs to remain unlocked during ongoing activity.
Buyer feedback highlights convenient keyless access, appearance, and code options. Some buyers also report problems with operation or latching, and opinions on battery life and door fit are mixed. Matching the door measurements to the listed fit is a practical step before installation.
What to clarify
How can the door be unlocked? Enter a user code or a one-time passcode on the keypad, or use one of the two physical backup keys. Passage Mode is available when continuous entry is needed.
Which door measurements should I check? The specified fit is a 2-1/8-inch hole, a 2-3/8-inch or 2-3/4-inch backset, and a door thickness of 1-3/8 to 2 inches. It is designed for standard U.S. wood and metal doors.
How do auto-lock and one-touch locking work? Auto-lock is adjustable from 10 to 99 seconds and is off by default. For one-touch locking, hold any keypad number for two seconds.
Is it worth it?
The TE003 is suited to buyers who want keypad access in a traditional door-knob format, with distinct options for household members and temporary visitors. Its user codes, one-time access, backup keys, and adjustable locking modes make it especially practical for bedrooms, home offices, and compatible rental or entry doors where flexible access matters.
