My Master Lock Bluetooth lock box will not re-lock. How can I fix this?

If your lock box door will not relock, you will need to unlock the door again using either one of the codes (Primary, Secondary or Temporary Codes) or Bluetooth from the App.

The lock box will make a clicking noise (one or three clicks may occur) and the ring will turn green to indicate that it has unlocked.

Then close the door and wait until the unit clicks and the ring flashes blue to indicate the unit has relocked. Then pull firmly on the door to confirm that is locked in place.

If you are still having issues relocking the lock box, try:

  1. Loosening the top two screws 3 or 4 turns (only for wall mount units).
  2. Looking at the bottom plastic piece inside the bottom of the lock box. If the pin on the right is bent or missing it will not push the sensor letting the lock know the door is closed. You may need to replace the pin.
  3. Changing the battery. The lock box takes a CR123A battery.
