How difficult is it to rekey this lock?
Asked by: DIYer
Traditional pin and tumbler locks can be re-keyed using re-keying kit 272 or 236. A locksmith can also re-key your locks for a nominal charge. Please contact build.com for pricing and availability.

Does this storeroom lock only unlocks on the outside with key and always unlocked for exit traffic? The installation instructions show a lock button on the inside.
Asked by: TomL
Hello TomL,
Thank you for your interest in Kwikset model# 781KNL 11P SMT. As a storeroom lever, this model remains locked at all times (requires a key for entry) but allows exit with no key.
Sincerely,

You didn't answer the real question from BCN:
Would this model work for a condo entry door where you need simple turn to exit, and requires a key to re-enter (and the lock cannot be made to stay unlocked regardless of which way you turn the key)???
Asked by: condoHOAguy
Hi condoHOAguy,
We are sorry for the incomplete response. This model lock #781KNL 26D SMT is a Storeroom function which is always locked unless opened with a key. When the door is closed, the lock automatically reverts back to a locked position. From inside the room, the door will open freely at all times to allow someone inside the room to exit. I hope this helps answer your questions.
Thank you,
Kwikset Support Team

How would I remove the cylinder where the key goes on this product
Asked by: Oasis
Hello Oasis,
Thank you for your interest in Kwikset model # 781KNL-3-SMT. To remove the cylinder the tool that was included with the unit must be pushed in on the side of the lever until a click is heard then the lever will come off of the shaft. Once the lever is removed the cylinder is held in by a silver clip that can be removed using a flat head screw driver. Once the clip is removed the cylinder can be removed from the shaft.
Thank you,
