Kiwkset 272 Keying Kit

This kit worked perfectly for my kwikset locks. Great for rental properties. You can rekey the locks to fit any key and also to use a master key to fit multiple locks which is great when you have several rent houses. The instructions are not as thorough as I’d like but videos on you tube will help if you have a hard time at first. Also there are enough supplies to rekey a ton of locks.

We have a rental house in addition to multiple door locks on outdoor storage units so it was a real money saver to acquire this kit instead of going to the hardware store and paying $15 per lock to have them re-key the lock. The color-coded pins make it super simple to re-key a lock in just a couple of minutes, literally. The included directions explain all the details of disassembling a lock, how to re-key one, and get it put back together again. I changed the locks on our front door (knob and deadbolt), basement entrance door (also with deadbolt) to all match so now I only need one key for all four locks. I've just about paid for the kit in labor and time savings alone.This is the EXACT same kit that our local hardware store uses and I'm VERY happy I won't ever be giving them any more of my money to re-key locks for us.

Someone tried to break into our house (we think they had a key). So instead of paying over $100 to have someone rekey them, I figured I would do it myself for only $80 and some of my time.This locking set is GREAT! Comes with extra springs and housing for the pins, which was important since my first keying attempt was a journey. After you rekey one lock, you can do other locks in a couple of minutes.Word of Advise: I have a Kwikset knob lock I needed to rekey. The directions and online guides say you must press a spring in the back of the lock to release it from the knob. After hours of trying to engage this spring, I found a little known fact that some of their Ultramax Knob sets only require you to release the lock in the back, then insert the key and turn it 180 Degrees. The lock will pop right out (no spring to engage)! Double check this before you waste hours trying to engage a spring that isn't there.Overall, this Keying Kit is well worth the money!

this was the perfect Kit for my needs. I have had contractors in and out of my house for 4 months now and once things started coming up missing it was time to relinquish them of their access. This kit allowed me to change all the bolts and all other locks in the house with plenty left to spare. Well worth the money. It even came with instructions if you're not familiar with how the locks are disassembled.

Very nice ,easy to use comes with instructions. If you watch a quick YouTube makes it even easier to use. My 16 year old daughter who knows nothing of this was able to do a lock.

A quality item made right here in the USA.I used it to rekey 2 non Kwikset locks.

Have used the same set in the past. Good price and on time delivery. Should be familiar with locks as re-keying can be a little difficult for some people.

This Kit has everything you need to do some master locksmithing on Kwikset locks (anybody else notice the typo in the product title?). I used an older version of this kit back in the mid-90s when I worked as a handy man for apartment complexes. I've wanted to have my own set ever since, and now I finally do. I just re-keyed my whole house this weekend & taught my kids how locks work - a lot of fun. The kit comes with instructions, which surprised me (I had to figure it out by trial & error back in the day). Regardless, I'm sure there are better instructions on YouTube these days.You can do it all with this kit: re-key locks, repair locks, make a master key, make a construction key, upgrade your top pins to the newer anti-pick style, etc. This is a professional kit and I'm having fun pretending to be a pro!

Excellent pin kit to repin locks based on the kwikset pins.Comes with all the needed pins as well as master pins, springs and everything else you need to start repining right away.
