Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed locksmith or general contractor following the door hardware manufacturer instructions and local building code requirements. Ensure the door is properly prepped with the correct cross-bore and edge-bore dimensions before mounting the knob assembly. Confirm latch and strike alignment before tightening all fasteners to avoid binding. Re-keying via SmartKey should be performed using the Kwikset SmartKey tool following the manufacturer procedure.
