Why when you press you code to unlock it you press the code then follow up with the kwikset button? Wi just press the code with no need to press kwikset and it immediately unlocks my door
@DAT-TEXAS-DUDE this is the programming process. Once it's programmed you don't have to press the kwikset button before or after anymore. Unless you want to turn on the back light, or restart your input if you put in the wrong number
I have always been a Schlage person. Had them on every exit door at our old house. She moved into new house in August I put the Schlage locks on two exit doors that work with the app to lock/unlock or set codes to allow access for others if need be. Need a code lock for a closet door with valuables and bought this lock and absolutely love it. The keypad is easier to use than the Schlage I bought.
The best video for the kwikset lock. Straight to the point. I finally got rid of the annoying beeping sound that kept waking my kids up. And his other lock tips are very helpful!
@michellevilaysith9250 you have time use the whole thing. They do have versions of this that are just a deadbolt. Like this one ua-cam.com/video/J6QMUmSzxnk/v-deo.htmlsi=0FTAY2EklVhjhBvU
My kwikset lock not working - no beeps or flash when I touch buttons. I replaced the battery but still nothing. However it does beep when I move lock/ unlock lever on back. I did the factory reset which beeps like it should but then no beep or flash when trying any program functions. Any suggestions?
Thank u but still not working, beeps when lock/ unlock lever is turned and the Program button beeps, but nothing when I hit front keypad. I will have to request landlord replace it unless anyone has suggestion
My key turns but it doesn’t open the the door. It allows the handle to move as if it’s unlocked but it doesn’t allow it to open, doesn’t actually disengage the door knob. Help?
@@GrantButler it does. I figured out that you simply turn the key to the right and leave it in that position while turning the knob. Operator error lol. Thanks for the reply! I added your link into our company directory for reference when needing to figure out issues or change codes. Very useful video!
Did you actually watch the video? From your previous comment, you weren't following the on-screen instructions. You may have to do a Factory reset & start over.

That's what I was going for! Thank you!

can I change out the latch mechanism to a deadbolt or do I have to use the one that comes with it
@michellevilaysith9250 you have time use the whole thing. They do have versions of this that are just a deadbolt.

How does the interior lever work will it unlock itself if pulled down? Have a toddler and dont want them to be able to open door by themselves.
Inside is always unlocked (that's fire code)
I tried to turn off the sound with 5 present and it still didn't turn off the sound
You might have a different model
Lifesaver!
@@ricknicely2006 so glad I could help
Thank u
So happy my video could help
How do you change the side the handlr is on? The direction they come with are terrible
@luvbug1396 check out my install video where I show how that works!

@@RayWilson-w3s it may have gone into security mode. Come back in an hour and see if it's still unresponsive.

Once you've disabled the program button ..how do you set a new lock code?
You can't disable the program button, you can only disable the master / programming code
What to do when to when the code continuously beeps red and will not accept any commands or factory reset???
It may be "locked" from wrong entries. So if you can't wait you may have to factory reset it
Is there a way to lock the door from outside by pressing the kwikset button?
I don't think so. You can either flip the auto-lock switch on the back, or wait for the auto-lock timer.
Help installed my new stepped outside left the keys inside and automatically lock what do I do I can't get back in my apartment please help
You should still have either the default code setup or be able to use the new code you set up on it
@@GrantButler where do I find the default code
@aztecjoe29 I can't seem to find one. Hope you figured it out, or called a locksmith. Sorry
what could be wrong if the key pad shows the right light/sounds but the door is not locking automatically?
@@ailisneezy898 is the latch on the back turned?
does all of this work for a Kwikset 917?
I'm not sure. I know its not the same as my other Keikset pinpad locks.
Can you set multiple codes with this lock?
Yes
@@GrantButlerhow?
@@GrantButlerI need to be able to change codes for renters, as they come and go, but keep a primary code for my family.
@@raymondhawkins8060 you can do exactly that
@@GrantButlerwhere’s that video? Haha do I just need to select 1. And continue entering new codes?
Trying to disable all codes. I press the program button, then 4, then Kwickset. But it blinks red after?
Follow the instructions at 1:42
4 is to DELETE all user codes.
6 is to disable it
How do I eliminate the auto lock?
Just turn the switch on the inside. I just made a #short for you on how it works.
Just for you 👍

Does the key turn in the cylinder?

How do you change it from what hou had to something else?
Change what?
What stops intruders from sticking a pin in the reset and using their own key to break in?
You have to have the original key before it will allow you to reset it
So I was able to change my code once and now I can't do it again
You may have to factory reset it
When I press “ 1 kwikset” the light doesn’t blink green it blinks red… Why????????
Are you pushing the program button first?
I don't have this lock. I can't program using this video
@@veralynnaument2842 that is correct
Does this come with a key
Mine came with 2 keys.
I just tried the process to delete all codes and it beeped red and the keypad went dead
Did you actually watch the video? From your previous comment, you weren't following the on-screen instructions. You may have to do a Factory reset & start over.
@@GrantButler no. I didn’t watch the video. 🙄 Thanks for the wise ass response.
Nothing on here of what to do when you change out the battery
@@indianoutlaw2419 shouldn't have to do anything when replacing the battery. It should keep everything stored in it's memory
After I deleted all the codes, now it’s not letting me add a new code
Are you using the program button?
How do I lock it!!!
Push the Kwikset button on the front or flip the lock on the back
My kwikset button won’t lock mine? What am I doing wrong?
the factory reset doesnt work that you instructed
Interesting. That's what the manual says word for word
Maybe not holding it long enough until it beeps
What if you lost the keys to your door😢
Then you can only use the codes
What do ya do if it won’t let you enter a user code? Just blinks red when trying to enter
Have you put in the wrong code too many times?
1:42 you may also have user codes disabled
