5 Tools You Require When Resetting Your Kwikset Smart Key Lock.
One of the best things about a Kwikset Smart Key Lock is the fact that you can very easily reset the key. This means that you have the chance to take any old useless key in the house and turn it into the main key. This comes in handy when you already have the copies of the old key as it is more convenient for everyone than having to make new copies. It is also useful when you want to render someone’s key useless without having to change the entire lock. Either way, the feature is something very useful. Lock resetting is a pretty easy project and is something that you can try if you don’t mind getting your hands a little dirty. But before you get into the entire process, you will need to have your tools. Below is all that you need for successful key resetting and why you need it.
1. Screw driver
The first thing that you will need when resetting your key is the appropriate screw driver. The term appropriate here means that the screw driver matches the screw heads on the lock. The screw driver will help you take apart the lock in order to gain access to the lock cylinder to make the necessary changes.
2. The existing lock cylinder
This is the most important part in this entire project. The existing lock cylinder contains the parts that make it possible to rest the key. This includes the tumbler barrel. You will get the lock cylinder by using the screw driver to take apart the lock. You don’t have to take the entire lock apart. You just need to release the part with the cylinders.
3. The keys
You will need to sets of keys. The first key is the specific key designed by the manufacturer for your lock. This comes in handy in the first few steps aimed at reconfiguring the tumblers. The second key is the old key that you intend to use as the new key for your lock.
4. Tail piece removers
The process of lock resetting involves taking the cylinder apart and you will need appropriate tools to do this. The tail piece remover allows you to safely remove the tail piece and the rings from the cylinder and to accurately replace them once the job is done.
5. A metallic pick
This is used to remove the tumbler from the cylinder. The metallic pick is usually a part of a locksmith’s set of picking tools. Unless you are licensed, handling one of these could get you in a lot of trouble. You can therefore substitute it using the existing key. It will be a little more difficult but is a better option than jail.
6. Reset tool
Finally, you will need the resetting tool. This is what you use to configure the tumblers to the specifications of the key you want to use.
Bottom line
The best part about these tools is the fact that they are all very easily available and even more easy to use. This ensures that you do it yourself resetting process runs as smoothly as possible. All you need is to ensure that you know all the steps and that you know which instrument to use in the different steps. If you have all this information, the process should be fairly simple and massively successful.

@RWBHere 4 года назад

Wait! Is that a _plastic_ barrel and cylinder? That makes it very vulnerable to various attacks. So how come it can claim to give Grade 1 home security? I would never use that Kwikset to secure anything more valuable than my lunch..

@@RWBHere don't worry, the only plastic is a pin-retainer, that is completely enclosed by metal.

My husband took this lock to the locksmith to be rekeyed and they told him it could not be done without the existing key, which we had lost. Followed your simple instructions and worked like a charm :) Thanks so much!

@S.E.Locksmith 5 лет назад

So other locksmiths don’t really know this Kwikset Smartkey reset ? Well I learned this by myself after playing with this cylinder few minutes. Happy that you could save some money and learn something new

@maintayne 3 года назад

Absolutely incredible video man. I botched the reprogram and none of th regular troubleshooting worked. I followed your procedure and it works flawlessly. Took 5 minutes with a phillips and flat screwdriver and I was done. Thank you so much!

@MrBettinhuge Год назад

This was me to a tee. Botched the initial program. NEVER thought I’d find a video to fix my screw up - but low and behold - found this. Thought I just tossed $45 for a wasted deadbolt but 5 minutes following this video - and I’m back in business. THIS IS THE KINDA STUFF THE INTERNET WAS MADE FOR. BROTHERS HELPING BROTHERS. Thank you to the original poster big time!

@TheFabulousCube 10 месяцев назад

Same! Only I have the old style and everything fell apart. It took more than 5 minutes, but still less than half an hour! This deadbolt is on a back door and I **have** the key to the door lock and it matches the deadbolt on the front door. So, I've never really cared I didn't have a key to the deadbolt for the back door. It's nice to have it fixed, though!

@EricDuchin Год назад

This is such a great video! One tip for people who might have struggled putting the tailpiece and C clamp back on. If you are forcing the C clamp on and it wont go on as easy as the video, check the opposite side. There is a small hole there that it fits correctly into. If you are struggling, you are on the wrong side, turn the cylinder 180 degrees and it will slide in as easy as the video.

Awesome. I bought a house with two Kwikset keypad deadbolts that I've programmed a code, but I wanted a key in case the batteries died so I could still get in. I bought a third for the front door to replace a Schlage deadbolt and wanted them to be keyed the same, but I couldn't find an original key for the other two units. Now I can re-key them for the same key thanks to this video.

@squizai6350 4 года назад

I purchased 6 new Kwikset Smart Key exterior locks for my home, but I had only a 50% success rate re-keying the locks (after precisely following the instructions each time), and my children heard me use language I shouldn't use. Thankfully, this video allowed me to reset all of the inoperative locks in less than an hour's time, using tools I had at home. The only advice I would add is to make sure that you have the tumbler oriented as shown in the video (3:13), so that when you remove the part holding the side pins, it is facing up. Otherwise the side pins will fall out. It's not a big deal to replace them, but just a little bit annoying. Also, when you have re-set the side pins and are making sure the side bar slides back and forth (4:00), I found that it was useful to remove and insert the key several times, checking to make sure that the side bar slides back and forth after each insertion. Once, I didn't do this, and after reassembling the lock I discovered that the key did not turn. For some reason the re-keying hadn't worked. So I had to take it all apart again. Thanks again for a very useful video!

My kwikset was a bit different but enough info on ur video to figure out mine. It had 2 C-clamp style pins but cylinder once released was same. I screwed up my rekey and this video helped get back on track. Lock oil tough to wash off hands, next time gonna wear gloves. Thx

Saved me once again. Second time I’ve used this tutorial. Thanks so much. ( I’ve got to do a better job of rekeying!!)

Excellent tutorial. My quick set lock had an extra clip but for the most part this was spot on. This saved me from getting a locksmith

After watching this video several times, after lots of trial and error, I got it to work. Thanks for this one, you're the man!

Priceless video. Helped me sort out my mistake of taking it apart. Now back together again. Best!

All the videos you have out there are great. Perfect lightning, so we can see what you are actually doing and how you explain. I watched a few videos on how to fix an upside down key slot, I found one but the lightning was to dark to see. You should give some folks a heads up about the like plastic cover on it, because if it comes off so do 5 little springs. Thank you

I messed up rekeying a brand new set (which explains why I needed this video, I'm an idiot.) Even I was able to reset the lock thanks to this video! I used a pair of tweezers I had laying around the house instead of the special tool. Very informative and easy to follow instructions. Thank you! You saved me much frustration!

Had a smart key cylinder similar to the one you demonstrated with. During rekeying I managed to make it not work with any keys. Without your video I would have needed to buy another lock because a locksmith would probably cost more. Thank you !!

I just bought a used Montara handleset and didn't have the active key. You saved me a lot of trouble. Thank you.

Great to hear that

Great video. There is an even newer version of the lock, but the video still has enough info to figure it out. Saved having to buy a new lock.

Your video was awesome. About 3 years ago I bought a Kwikset deadbolt and when I tried to re-key it, something went wrong and it didn’t re-key. The original key didn’t work either. I left the deadbolt on my front door and never used it.....until today. I followed your instructions and within 15 minutes I had my deadbolt re-keyed and now it works perfectly. Thanks for the great video. You saved me $70!

Kwikset SmartKey reset is definitely one the most important video I make over the years and I’m very happy that it really helped a lot of people

Well, if I hadn't dropped two pieces on the shop floor and one into a bag of tools this would have been a 2 minute fix. Finally found them and got it done. Thank you so much for the great video.

Thank you for your clear and understanding instructions. I was able to use a couple of small flat headed screw drivers to get the black collar off and used the key that cam with it to get the main out. I was able to reset mine in about 30 minutes thanks to you. Perfect video and instructions!

Great video! I tried rekeying my new locket and did something wrong and neither the original key nor the new key would work in the lock. This video saved me a long call to customer service! Worked like a charm! Thanks much!
