Stylish and efficient lock

These products have replaced a similar system that was almost 19 years old. They are of considerable weight and well constructed - very much like our old ones. The finish is immaculate and the Venetian bronze is the same color as it appears on the computer screen. All the necessary parts were in the package and were easy to assemble. Recoding is possible. This is convenient and also saves money. The prices are great as we carefully researched a replacement system for our front door. It's theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Something different

Installed quickly, looks great!

quick and easy installation. In 30 minutes I replaced an existing brass kit with a fiberglass door I installed about 15 years ago (if drilling a new door I would say add 30 more minutes but most doors are standard). The instructions are easy to follow and even have the correct screw diagrams for each step, as well as a template if you need to drill (I didn't). The color is a nice looking oily bronze and slightly lighter than my photos. It has a nice tight feel, spins very smoothly, and feelsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • cable is shorter than other picks

The second block with peelable coating on the handles.

This is my second door handle! When I first unpacked it, I noticed that the coating on the inside handle was peeling off. So I returned it and got a replacement because I love the style of my new front door. I inspected the new one very carefully before installing it. I only installed it about a week ago and the coating on the outside handle is now peeling off! I am beyond disappointed with this product. I thought it was a well known quality brand. I have now installed this handle on my newโ€ฆ

Complicated instructions + a part is crushed when pasting.

I used this product to replace a front door handset that fell out of a friend's door. It was installed by us homeowners when we bought a new door in 2009. Unfortunately we had no documentation to prove purchase or a lifetime warranty. I love the product and the look and it goes perfectly with our old phone. .The installation was a challenge though. All the instructions are in graphical format with very little text so some key information was left out which made it a bit mysterious and took more

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great Price

Elegance at an affordable price

I am completely satisfied with this set. I used to have the same unit in another house and never had a problem. I'm not a lock and knob snob so I don't have any luggage. I have always been happy with Kwikset and plan to continue purchasing Kwikset to replace the door blocks in my home. I like handle sets because I have big hands and inevitably knock/scratch the door frame with my knuckles or twist my wrist awkwardly when opening. Another benefit of pens is that they can be used by hand. I'mโ€ฆ
