Why Using Kwikset Locks
Kwikset locks are among the most popular in American homes due to their balance of affordability, reliability, and user-friendly features. Whether you're upgrading curb appeal or changing locks after a move, Kwikset has solutions to fit your needs.
Advantages include easy installation, SmartKey technology for fast rekeying, and a wide range of mechanical and electronic styles. Kwikset also offers ANSI Grade 1 deadbolts, which provide strong resistance to forced entry.
While not as high-security as brands like Medeco or Mul-T-Lock, Kwikset’s versatility and compatibility with smart systems make it a top choice for homeowners and landlords alike.
From modern designs to traditional finishes, Kwikset locks work with nearly any door setup and are widely supported for service and parts.
Kwikset Lock Rekey
One of Kwikset’s most praised features is SmartKey rekey technology. This allows a locksmith—or even the property owner with the proper tool—to rekey the lock without removing it from the door.
It’s an ideal solution for landlords, real estate agents, or homeowners needing fast, secure key changes without new hardware. However, correct technique is important to avoid misalignment or lock failure.
Our locksmiths can rekey most Kwikset models on-site in minutes. Rekeying costs typically range from $25–$59 depending on lock style and volume.
Smart Locks
Kwikset offers a range of electronic and smart locks under product lines like Halo, Aura, and Kevo. These locks support features such as keyless entry, remote access, and voice assistant compatibility.
Standard Kwikset smart locks replace your existing deadbolt with a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth-enabled unit. These allow control via app, scheduled lock codes, and activity logs, depending on the model.
Retrofit options are limited, so smart lock upgrades often involve complete hardware replacement. However, most Kwikset models are designed to fit standard door preps with minimal modification.
With a sleek design and user-friendly interface, Kwikset smart locks provide security with modern convenience at an affordable price point.
Do It Yourself VS Using Professional Locksmith
Kwikset locks are often marketed as DIY-friendly, but issues like poor fitment, stripped screws, or SmartKey damage can arise from incorrect installation. This compromises your security and voids warranties.
Our locksmiths ensure proper installation, alignment, and secure anchoring for all Kwikset models. We also test for latch smoothness, keypad response, and connectivity in smart locks.
Using a licensed locksmith means your locks are installed professionally and backed by a 6-month warranty on parts and labor. It’s peace of mind that DIY can’t offer.
