Kwikset Tustin Entry Lever featuring SmartKey in , Venetian Bronze/Standard Packaging

I love this product and it’s just the color I expected and match great with my color scheme

Great door latch. Love the way it installs.

Overall, we really like the set and having the ability to re-key the lock is awesome. For anyone who might have an issue with arthritis or some other disease that affects the joints this handle is great. Very light action and it feels very sturdy. The only downside we have found is that the thumb lock on the interior (I hope you put it on the interior) it sticks quite often and you have to jiggle the handle to get it to turn fully.

My wife and I manage multiple properties and having the locks changed over to Kwikset Smartkey was the best decision we made. So easy to change from one key to another on all locks in a home. This saves us a lot of time and money and keeps our tenants safe.

Took me 20 minutes to install which was a lot because it was complicated. I replaced a closet door to add a lock feature. The handle curve on the outside is the opposite of all the other handles. Lets see how long it takes for the wife to notice.

I have lived in my current home less than 5 years and this is my 3rd Kwikset Tustin and now it is not working. The little screw that holds the handle on fell out and is lost. This happened with the last one I had. Also the little knob on the inside that locks the handle will not turn. The current handle broke in less than 1 year. You may ask, Why do you keep buying if it keeps breaking?. The reason is that it matches all the other handles in the house. I have had no problem with the inside handles just the back door handle. The front door is a different brand and we have had no issues with it. I may have to buy that brand for the back door as well. That brand is Schlage in case you wanted to know. I would avoid buying this lock.

Using on outdoor gate as the old one broke after 8 years of abuse. It is a direct replacement, only have to rekey. Seems to have less freeplay than old one. Installation was easy but had to take out the handle and flip around as my lock is on the other side. Dont lose the tool that disconnect the handle, over time the lock might come loose and require tightening, you need the tool to take off the handle to expose the screws.

Easy to install and looks great. I returned it because i did not need the lock. I got the same thing without the lock.

The Kwikset smart key is a great innovation in locksets and allows all doors to be keyed alike without calling the locksmith. I have eight of these, interior and exterior, and am able add another or to re-key in the event of lost keys. This would be a great option for rental property. Do be aware that there is a left and right to them, and although I have a few installed of the wrong swing, no one notices but me. The clear finish applied over the brushed nickel yellows and chips off in the sun and the escutcheon is starting to rust on one of the exterior doors after a few years. Otherwise, I would give 5 stars.

Absolutely love the handle. I bought these to replace all the mismatch knobs in my home. Easy installation and great quality!
