This may sound like a stupid question, but will this kit also rekey non-Schlage locks as well? Specifically, I've got the hardware to a Defiant brand set that I would prefer to keep, simply because they already match the style and color of my new...

No. It is for Schlage locks only. It comes with Schlage keys that will only fit in Schlage locks.

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.

I don't think so. One key will open both locks in each set, but not the other set. At least, it shouldn't!

I just tried the key from the Master Lock deadbolt in a kwikset lock and it slides right in. When I try it in a Schlage lock it will not go in. Hope that helps you out.

I'm not sure about the specific model you mentioned, but the locksmith was great at rekeying our Schlage deadbolts and door locks (including a keypad entry) so they all use the same key. And reading the reviews I say that someone had rekeyed them before they were installed -- made a lot of sense, so we did too! Saved us the cost of a locksmith coming out. Just dropped off the locks after we received them and the locksmith rekeyed them in an hour. We had them installed and have never had a problem. Love them!!!

Yes it would work. But the pin sizes are not standard Schlage pins. You would be better off buying a Schlage kit with all the correct pin sizes and the tools. I got a set by e builders from amazon. Very fast service. You get fifty of each size pin plus the tools needed and a key gauge which will tell you what size pins you need to match a key

I had this deadbolt rekeyed to match the Schlage locks on our house. These were not keypad entry locks, so unfortunately I don't know if it can be rekeyed specifically for that particular type of lock. However, I would assume that as long as the key styles match, this should be possible.

Baldwin Estate locksets have a C-keyway. That is not the same as an F keyway. I don't understand what you meant when you wrote, "Would like to replace handle." If your lockset needs a new lever ("handle") you can buy a replacement from Baldwin. I would be very surprised if any Schlage parts fit Baldwin locksets.

yes.... some home depots will do it.. otherwise.. go to your local lock guy.. it is a breeze especially if you have your key code to help... I had all 3 of my entry locks keyed alike..

Hello, I am not sure. Normally locks are purposely shipped with random keying. In my experience you normally have to order "keyed alike" locks directly from the manufacturer or from a major reseller/wholesaler. When I was researching this purchase I did come across order links from both Master and several wholesalers. Hope this helps.

I was told AND read the answer is "YES" ... but with all things in life, I don't 100% believe it until I see it... they ship a special tool to put into the lockface with YOUR keys.. after a few seconds/beeps and it is rekeyed to YOUR keys... BUT, as I have not tried this myself yet, I caution you... make sure you don't need a certain type or special key .....

You may want to watch this kwickset instructional video before you rekey. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHhwYBGz2kU You'll actually need the new key to change the pins if you follow the recommended procedure. I purchased a set of keys at the hardware store before rekeying. Lowe's had packs of 2, and then the key guys made me 2 more copies of those keys. I then went home and keyed all my locks to that key. I got the keys locally because I didn't want to order them online. No good having someone with both my address and possibly copies of my keys. To answer your question directly: I've never tried taking the numbers in, but that is really a non-starter, since you have to have the keys in hand to do the rekeying. Good luck, I hope it works for you.

it is a Weiser keyway, however i tried a Kwikset key and the cylinder accepted it, so I would think it could be re keyed to your existing Kwikset key an exception may be the age of your Kwikset locks some of the older locks had different keyways to the present

Absolutely. I bought two sets and rekeyed 8 locks. You just have to use the pins pattern from the first six locks and disregard the new patten. Hope this helps!

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.

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.

That means its a Kwikset key blank used. So if you were to ever get a duplicate key made they would use a KW1 blank for it. Also you can have them rekeyed (the locks) at most hardware stores, but most likely they will come different.
