In all my 52 years of carpentry, I never encountered the lock with hidden screws under a face plate. I'm now ready for my future encounter, thanks to your video.

@outtadarkness1970 Год назад

Fortunately it was the inside face and not the exterior one.

@mrjoesmith5930 Год назад

Some old Dexter brand locks do/did that also.

@GoodlyEarth Год назад

This is great, so many people might look at that lock and just give up. You made it look so easy Leah!

I'm a locksmith I love locks. That security screw you can push down n turn hard with a flat screwdriver, or notch it with a Dremel slot.

@alfredharvey9410 22 дня назад

I had visible screws on the face plate of the deadbolt and thought that was it. What i didn’t know was they were inside two more screws that could only be accessed by taking down the key plate. This video helped out SOOOOO much. Thank you!!

Leah always keeps her promises: I can do this! On the surface, it might look like an impossible task, but Leah will show how its done. Thank you so much for taking the time, even for the little explainers, e.g. what is a double keyed deadbolt. For a moment there I thought I might have to google it, but no, Leah delivers as always 🙂

@rosepelzel4244 Год назад

I love learning from you, Miss Leah!! You are the best!!

@tonydelapa1911 Год назад

Great demonstration, as always. Thank you. PSA: I’d like to add a note that locks requiring a key to get out are unsafe (fire) and against code in most cases. You should be able to exit by simply turning a one-sided thumb turn.

@seejanedrill Год назад

Great point!

@agate_jcg Год назад

My daddy taught me that double-keyed deadbolts are needed to secure doors with glass lites in them. Otherwise people can just break the glass and turn the thumb turn from the outside. Is there another option that gives you both fire safety and break-in security? (Besides "don't have windows in your doors, stupid!")

@helidude3502 Год назад

When a live meat bag is inside, they can leave the key used for entry in the lock. There can also be one kept nearby.

@helidude3502 Год назад

Anecdotal story. A local gun shop was having problems passing the fire inspection before opening for business. The fire marshal had issue with the security doors not being able to be opened from the inside. “What if a burglar breaks in through the roof, there is a fire, how will he escape?” The response “He’s stealing from a gun store. Why would you want him to escape?” They were able to open for business shortly thereafter.

@judih.8754 Год назад

I would think a lock like that would be best in a door with a window in it. That way a thief couldn't break the glass and turn the latch.

@Spiker985Studios Год назад

Hey Leah, just a word of warning, the frame at 0:38 where the key is entirely sideways is enough for someone to be able to cut a copy of your key. Deviant Ollam has a few videos on this topic. Stay safe out there!

@erepsekahs Год назад

Yeah, I made two copies and went down to the address she supplied and robbed the place. I scored a 1984 Mitsubishi TV and a lawn mower.

@mr.g937 Год назад

To be fair, these locks are not all that secure in general, someone who is able to cut that key is likely also skilled enough to operate a basic lock-picking set.

@Spiker985Studios Год назад

@@mr.g937 While true, it is *infinitely* easier to get a key cut than to perform a bump or pick the lock All locks are simply meant to dissuade people wanting a quick steal, and to be marginally more secure than your neighbors. If someone wants something bad enough, they'll just cause damage instead of be stealthy

@blueferral3414 Год назад

The security screw is there because some tenants love to change out the deadbolt so the landlord can't come in ever and see they are subleasing or some other violation of the lease.

@derschwartzadder Год назад

With that lock, as long as you have a key that works, you can re-key it in 3 seconds. Just google kwikset re key.

@tonymusolino2369 Год назад

Some deadbolts have set screws that are hidden . They wont have an inside cover plate, instead if you remove the side plate that covers the bolt, and look down the bolt shaft. Where the bolt meets the lock housing, you may see an inner and an outer set screw. Usually allen keys will operate these set screws.

@jasond.8281 Год назад

You can also use a reverse (aka left hand) drill bit, I've used this method on removing stripped fasteners. This will also prevent the drill bit from tightening the screw more as you drill into it.

You're right....couldn't find my set

@franceswatts4001 Год назад

@libbyd1001 Год назад

The cap on the screw access side of the lock is on the interior of the house. No point thwarting removal if a person is doing so from inside the house.

I noticed that the deadbolt you replaced was a Kwikset Smart Key lock. Did you consider taking advantage of that lock's toolless rekeying capability? You can buy a Kwikset Smart Key rekeying set for less than $20 and rekey it in place. That saves a lot of time and expense.

Thanks, while our lock wasn't quite like this . . . it did allow us to see the "innards" so I knew my options. Previous owner of house had used some sort of glue where there was supposed to be a set screw . . . and we couldn't get it disassembled the "right" way . . . so we just drilled that plate so we could get to the screws underneath. There's more than one way to skin a cat!
