Keep the hardware that still works

Kwikset is one of the residential lock brands Cairn installs, adjusts and services. A lock that still operates properly may only need its key changed. A worn cylinder or a latch that does not engage calls for a closer inspection.

Kwikset SmartKey cylinders allow rekeying while the lock remains on the door. We also work on the Kwikset Halo smart lock. The technician checks the hardware and door operation before recommending work.

The right work for your Kwikset lock

Changing a key, correcting a faulty lock and replacing worn hardware are different jobs. Cairn inspects the lock before setting out the work and price.

  • Install a Kwikset lock

    We fit the lock, check the strike and test that the door latches and locks without needing to be pushed or lifted.

  • Change who has a working key

    Rekeying changes which key operates the cylinder. With SmartKey hardware, this can be done without taking the lock off the door.

  • Repair a lock that binds

    A stiff key or a bolt that catches may involve the lock or door alignment. We inspect both before recommending a repair.

  • Replace or upgrade hardware

    Replace worn hardware or move to a Halo smart lock. We check the door dimensions and operation before installation.

Service work, not dealer authorization

Cairn installs and services Kwikset hardware but is not an authorized Kwikset dealer. The manufacturer's warranty applies to the hardware. Cairn provides a separate 12-month workmanship warranty on its installation, rekeying and repair labor.

Before we work on your Kwikset lock

These answers cover SmartKey rekeying, the Halo smart lock, keying Kwikset locks alike with other brands, and what to do when a key is hard to turn.

Call (702) 000-0000All questions
Does a Kwikset SmartKey lock have to come off the door to be rekeyed?

No. A SmartKey cylinder can be rekeyed with the lock still installed. Rekeying changes the working key without replacing the entire lock.

Can you service my Kwikset Halo smart lock?

Yes. Cairn services the Kwikset Halo. We inspect the lock and check that the deadbolt moves freely before deciding what needs attention.

Can my Kwikset lock use the same key as another brand?

Only when the cylinders have compatible keyways. Different brands may use different keyways, so a single key cannot necessarily operate every lock. We check compatibility before proposing common keying.

Do I need a new lock if my Kwikset key is hard to turn?

Not necessarily. The trouble may involve the cylinder, latch or door alignment. A technician checks the hardware before recommending repair or replacement.
