Passcode problem iPhone11

Hi - My husband set up his new iPhone11 yesterday. He doesn’t remember being asked to input a passcode.

today, I picked up his phone to check on progress of a downloading app. Presumably because it didn’t recognise me, it required a passcode to use face recognition. He has no passcode & now the phone is disabled.

is the iPhone passcode the same as his iPad code? Can anyone help?

thankyou

In order to use face id a 4 to 6 digit code needs to be set up, whether it's the same code as his ipad, only he would know.
