How does the thumb lock works?

In theory, you press on it, and it unlocks the lip (after you have used the key to actually release the bolt on the upper part) - so it's not a thumb lock, just a hold/release mechanism rather than a handle. Having said that, you should be aware that 2 of the units I purchased were faulty and other reviewers are having the same issue. I replaced mine with Kwikset Tavaris Single Cylinder Handleset w/Vedani Lever which is actually nicer looking and has worked perfectly since I installed it 7 months ago.

Great. No problem. I had the exact same lockset in brass and the thumb latch was an ongoing problem.

No, a thumb grip for real gangsters. The button kind don't always lock. It makes it seem like you stabbed your foe but instead the blade accidentally slides back down. This is the best way to go if you got to stab someone with style.

Sorry for the delay in responding. I just tried working the axis lock with my thumb only, and it's a breeze. You should not have any trouble.

The slide release is a ratchet click operation you operate with your finger. The key lock is used to lock the release from being operated. Once my bike is loaded, the bar is pushed down to secure the bike and it can be locked at that point to stop any unauthorized movement or left unlocked so when you reach your destination, a simple push releases the ratchet.

There's no thumb screw to lock the position. The tilt is, as you say, via a ratchet type click mechanism. There is a large phillips head screw and nut that can adjust tension on the tilt, but it won't lock it in position. I found it best at a moderately firm tightness, that allows the head to easily tilt without sagging.

Sorry, but I don't know the answer because I always have my thumb on the button out of habit. I will see if there is something in the book that came with it later today. OK The book says slide the thumb lock back and squeeze the trigger. When the trimmer is running release the thumb lock and should run until you release the trigger. Hope that helps. Don

first you put your thumb through the opening, and then you wrap the brace around your hand/wrist. Works for both hands!

To open, you press on a lever like part of the blade. Basically top center of assembly in picture of it when open. Its mild pressure and almost an assisted open. Much easier than thumb opening. I have used mine daily for quite a while and works flawlessly.

The lock accepts the unlock command,. If your Controller supports it you should be good to go

The devise moves up toward the slide when you push up to lock the slide. The only issue I can foresee is will your thumb be able to contact the slide release/lock with a thicker grip. For me, I would modify the grip before I would give up the lock, it make locking and releasing the slide much more reliable, especially doing malfunction drills.

Put your fingernail under it, pull, and lock it. If it doesn't work, it's defective.

Dear Sara. I bought it for my wife a "coon's age" ago. We've never used it (but I'm sure there is no lock). You just depress the top button to use. Sorry, can't help much.

Yes it locks great! There is a little button on top that you push down. Locks and unlocks very easily!

The handle does NOT have a lock function at all...only the deadbolt locks as is typical with most door locks of this type/style. The handle (thumb latch and/or lever) are essentially what is commonly referred to as a "Passage" set which means they are always open and do not have any locking capability. The deadbolt is the means by which you lock your door with this hardware. And if you are concerned that you only have one lock instead of two, don't be...the one deadbolt lock is enough and it is built like a tank! My wife and I absolutely love the one we have. Keyless entry is awesome!

Yes, on the small end piece there is a small piece of plastic that you push up or down to lock or unlock. It purposely is difficult to move so that you don't do it accidentally. Use your finger nail to switch it the opposite direction and it should be unlocked.
