Easy to open, really light

I am sure this lock will suit most people. However, if you are learning lockpicking and are a total beginner, don't expect too much trouble. I haven't installed it, but it seems pretty standard.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Good price! on Door Hardware & Locks

For $11 you can't win! I was going to order a "smart key" but I've been hearing nightmares about people being locked at home so I went with this traditional one instead. An extra key won't kill me.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • New competitors appeared

Affordable, durable lock

Bought to replace my old lock that would no longer lock. Very easy to install yourself. I would squirt some WD-40 into all the nooks and crannies for extra lubrication. Closes clean and well. Excellent price and quality.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Minor issues

Not a great product.

The first keys ordered were not the same. Sent back and the replacement was used and the threads in the long screws were stripped. There was no replacement option so I returned it and had to drive to Lowe's. What a waste of 5 days.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

I have a bad stick

It sticks really strong so I bought another one and it doesn't stick after inserting another lock. It's ok, maybe it's a good buy for others, but it wasn't for me. Great seller, very fast. I will buy from this seller again but not this product.

Pros
  • Easy to read panel
Cons
  • Not sure

Easy to install, smooth operation, nice lock

Very easy to install, first time to install a deadbolt lock and took less than 10 minutes. I replaced the same brand deadbolt lock which made the installation very easy. Very nice lock, works smoothly with no problems. The best price I could find online for this lock!

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Interchangeable

Kwikset Universal Security Pin Lock (Good for the price)

LOCK OPENING -------Honestly a $15 job, that's not bad at all for a two pin safety latch. If you love picking locks, this is a good cheap lock to practice picking the security pins. HOME INSTALLATION----------Home installation, this is a cheap hasp. The bezel attached to the frame is 2.02mm thick and the latch frame in the door is 1.75mm thick and made of an unknown metal; not very good for security. The latch protrudes approximately 1 inch/25.42 mm. If you rely on templates for DIY projects…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Periodicity
