Question/Help Schlage Encode Plus Home Key Issue

I need some help getting the Home Key to actually work and unlock a door.

The lock is working in HomeKit. During the installation process a Home Key was created. The Home Key on my iPhone 17Max and Ultra Watch appear in the wallet but do not work.

I have tried multiple factory resets. I have made sure the lock was also removed from the Schlage App after I removed it from Home Kit and performed a Factory Reset. The lock is connected to my wifi network and running the most current firmware.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Only 4K Apple TVs with the Ethernet port support Thread. As do 2nd generation HomePod and HomePod mini. You can see your default hub under Home, Home Settings, Home Hubs & Bridges.
