I would like to rekey this lock with the house key that fits all house locks. The other house keys are not likely all Kwikset. Will this tool work? Thanks.

Keys have two security features - The groves in the side of the key and the cuts in the Top. Only kwikset keys will fit into a kwikset lock . So this will only work on Kwikset locks with the Newer re-key funcyion

This kit will work with the Smartkey Kwikset locks. If you have an older lock system, this kit is not meant for it. If you have a Smartkey kwickset lock, then you should not need this kit. Just rekey the lock to your existing key that works for the rest of the locks.This kit is only a set of six keys to rekey a smartkey Kwikset lock. The smartkey kwikset lock system can be rekeyed in minutes. Check out this website.http://www.kwikset.com/SmartSecurity/Re-Key-Technology.aspx

All of the locks in the house would have to changed to the Kwickset Locks that have the SmartKey feature. Then the tool could be used to single key the entire house.

Yes. You can tale the lock with the key you use now and have them match it. Both Home Dept and Lowe's do this.

Hi, Yes we have these locks keyed alike. If you order more than one they will use the same key. Thank you.

Not necessarily. You will get a random set of pins and keys that match. If you happen to be lucky, you might get the pins that match they key you have (unlikely). There are much more expensive sets (~$100+) that will allow you to rekey a lock to any particular key.

Amazon furnished me with three all keyed alike and they work great. Had I not been able to get then keyed alike I would have taken them to my favorite locksmith down here in Denton and had them key them alike. I believe it would be easy since the entire key tumbler assembly slides into the open when you open the lock.

I know "Keyed alike" does NOT mean that every lock manufactured uses the same key. You want just four "keyed alike" . Have a locksmith do it.

Hi Sara, What key number do you have? We only have 11 units left of the 40KADPF Key#0501. If this key number is not the same as yours, I recommend you contact Master Lock to see if they can match your key number. Thanks! Kaming

Hello Mr. Morris, basically, there are 2 different cylinders in the Kwikset 816. The black cylinder is for the owner and the keys (gold color) has a different profile then the standard kwikset keys. That means, you can't rekey the standard cylinder (silver) with the "golden owner key". But you can replace the black cylinder against a standard kwikset cylinder in few minutes if you want. Best regards AJ

It would be easier to just get the 8-lock Schlage kit. Lowes might rekey the seventh lock to your key, but you would have to pay for the service. I am also quite sure the Prime-Line people would be happy to help, for a small fee.

Yes every key works on all the locks. Each lock comes with two keys, all keys work on all locks. I have had no issues with a single lock. I'm considering ordering another set.

With this handle won't work with your existing lock handle, since that one you have now its with key. You can used this one but it has to be combo. With the one the comes with... or. Order one exactly like the existing one that you have...

Yes you can change the combo and re-key the lock. There are no instructions on how to change the combo but it is possible. After some trial and error I was able to set mine to the combo I desired.

Don't know for sure. Some online companies can do it to order. I imagine if you ordered two sets they would come with two different Keyes. A lock smith might be able to rekey one set.

I don't see any reason why you could not. I personally had mine rekeyed to match to the other locks on my house. The key cylinder is a standard pin and tumbler. I had Lowes re key mine.

No as far as I know 2 will use one key and the other 2 would have thier key. Maybe the seller could talk with master lock and get u all 4 locks keyed alike

I keyed my new lock to my house keys by exchanging the complete tumbler. I used the tumbler from the lock I replaced with my new keypad lock. I'm sure a locksmith could exchange the pins in the tumbler to accomidate your house key as well. Schlage is a very high quality lock that is designed to be keyed to other similar locks.

Hey Ginancas,You would not be able to order this lock with the same key set as another you may order or own, but a locksmith will be able to key these locks with others you may have. Hope this helps.
