description Kwikset SmartKey Keypad Deadbolt Overview
Kwikset SmartKey keypad deadbolts combine electronic code entry with a conventional keyed cylinder using Kwikset's SmartKey Security system. Authorized owners can re-key the cylinder to another compatible key without removing the lock or calling a locksmith, while the keypad permits entry without carrying a key. Features such as code capacity, automatic locking, connectivity, and finish vary by model, so they cannot be established from this generic product name alone.
help Kwikset SmartKey Keypad Deadbolt FAQ
How can I re-key a Kwikset SmartKey keypad deadbolt?
Kwikset SmartKey Security lets you change the keyed cylinder to another compatible key without removing the deadbolt. The usual process uses the current key, a SmartKey tool, and the new key, so the keypad assembly can stay on the door.
Can I unlock the Kwikset deadbolt if the keypad batteries die?
Yes, the keypad accepts an authorized code and the conventional keyed cylinder provides a physical backup. If the batteries are depleted, use the key, while the exact battery type and code features depend on the model.
Will a Kwikset SmartKey keypad deadbolt fit my existing door?
Check the existing deadbolt preparation, door thickness, backset, and bore dimensions against the exact Kwikset model. SmartKey changes the keying of the cylinder, but it does not make every door physically compatible.
Why choose a Kwikset SmartKey keypad deadbolt over a standard deadbolt?
It combines electronic code entry with mechanical key access and SmartKey re-keying. That lets an owner change access codes or re-key the cylinder without calling a locksmith, provided the replacement key is compatible.
