SOURCE: i have a kwikset deadbolt

I had the same question as my son installed the lock. Instructions should be printed on the cover you remove (inside the house). They need to make removing that cover MUCH easier, I'm always afraid I'll break it. Anyway, you press the button once for the first number. To enter a "guest" code, press the button twice then enter the 2nd code in the keypad and press the lock button. Now try both main # and guest #, both should open ttthe lock.

Will all kwikset keys unlock all kwikset locks?

I've heard of this problem happening. Whenever the key is changed, check it several times before locking the door. If you have keys duplicated, the duplicates must be very accurate or they might not work reliably. Difficult to know what causes this, unless someone is tampering with the lock, or resetting it improperly. Or could be defective cylinders - which would be disappointing. Pin-tumbler cylinders do not have this problem, it's something unique to Kwikset
Smartkey.

How do I rekey smartkey when original keys are lost?

the only way to fit a new key to the ' smartkey ' lock system is to use the Kwikset smartkey reset tool, then after the cylinder is reset - you can put a new key in it for alignment.
this tool is availible at most lockshops and they will reset the lock for about 5 dollars.

We have a kwikset smart key and the deadbolt part worked fine for months and then suddenly it won't work. Not happy. What to do? Shirley Johnson

You will have to buy a new lock once the "smartkey" locks up its toast. Very bad design unlike the traditional kwikset pin tumbler lock which can be repaired if something like this were to happen but hardly ever does.

Kwikset Smart Key Deadbolt Won't Unlock

Kwikset Smart Key locks are complete junk. I am a locksmith and I am constantly going from house to house replacing these "dumb key" locks with original kwikset pin tumbler locks. What happens is either your key or the wafers inside the lock wear slightly, slightly enough to cause your keys to not turn, and since these locks cannot be picked due to a side bar system, they must be drilled off and thrown away when this happens Unless you have another access point to get in the house. If you do remove lock from the inside, throw it in the trash, buy original kwikset and replace.

How do i remove exterior handle kwikset titan?

Hi,
You need to insert the key and turn it clockwise, then insert a stiff metal tool like a straightened out heavy paper clip into the hole on the shaft of the lock by the circular flange next to the door. Push it in until you feel it give and pull out on the handle at the same time. If you need more help please contact me.
Best of Luck,

Lost keys to my Entry door lock

Visit your local Home Depot and purchase a Kwikset re-keying kit. They're inexpensive and work fine but stay alert and follow the instructions properly. This kit comes complete with proper pins as well as new keys. Good Luck!
