Kwikset 9260CNT-26S Smartcode Keypad Electronic Deadbolt

Product Description

The KWIKSET 9260CNT-26S is a contemporary-style keypad electronic deadbolt designed for residential door applications. It features SmartKey Security technology, which allows rekeying without removing the lock from the door, and a backlit keypad for keyless entry via user-programmed access codes. The unit ships in a Bright Chrome finish and is suited for exterior door installations on residential entry points. Measuring 10.1 inches in length, 5.6 inches in width, and 4.3 inches in height, the lockset weighs 3.2 pounds. Locksmiths, general contractors, and experienced DIYers are the typical installers for this type of hardware.

This deadbolt is intended for residential exterior doors where keyless entry and rekeying flexibility are priorities. The contemporary profile suits modern door styles and standard door prep configurations. The SmartKey cylinder accepts rekeying to most Kwikset keyways without disassembly, making it practical for rental properties, newly purchased homes, or any installation where key control needs to change over time. The electronic keypad eliminates the need for a physical key as the primary entry method while still accommodating a key override through the SmartKey cylinder.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed locksmith, general contractor, or qualified DIYer familiar with door hardware. Power down or remove batteries before servicing internal components, and verify door prep dimensions match the lock requirements before installation. Follow local building codes and the manufacturer instructions for proper alignment of the bolt and strike plate. Do not force the bolt mechanism during installation, as improper alignment can damage the electronic drive assembly.
