# How to Change the Code on a Schlage Door Knob or Handle With a Key Code
Schlage electronic door security provides an additional level of intruder protection compared to standard key locks. Many of the company's electronic locks combine a door handle or knob with a numeric keypad. To open the door, users must enter a four-digit code and pull the hand or turn the knob.
