Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the convenience of keyless entry and the ability to grant access via codes to family and guests, with many highlighting straightforward installation and elegant design. However, a substantial portion report severe battery drain lasting only weeks, mechanical failures where the deadbolt doesn't fully engage, and a keypad that doesn't illuminate in low light. While most appreciate the core concept, recurring reliability issues and the need for frequent troubleshooting undermine the product's promise of dependable convenience.

I purchased my first lock and it failed within warranty, company replaced with a new one. This one failed again and no warranty coverage if over a year. Average lifespan seems to be 1-1.5 years of use. Electronics warranty is one year, lifetime warranty is for finish and the manual lock for key that you do not use, so it is pretty much a useless warranty. Average in & out per day is 10-20 times for our home. Again the product is wonderful when it works but I am not a fan of the short lifespan a...

I bought this product from a box store and found it had been opened and things were missing. The company quickly mailed me a complete replacement which is now working well.

Best Installation Design of all Locks
Would RecommendI've had other digital locks by other competitors. Funky installation designs with wire management as it were an afterthought. The Kwikset 913 is thought out so completely the install is about five minutes, and the batteries are easily replaceable.

Easy diy deadbolt
Would RecommendIt was pretty easy to install into door . Harder time removing old deadbolt than install new one . Also keeping with Kwikset key and tool to keep old key was awesome . No new set of keys . Also programming was easy . Didn’t want to go fully into smart locks with WiFi and still wanted to keep my own key . No worry if battery goes out I have key with me .

Very smooth reliable operation
Would RecommendInstalled two months ago and worked great on our side gate. Unfortunately did not realize its an indoor lock, and with our torrential winter rains, the keypad stopped working, although the lock button still worked to electronically close after manually opening. Now that it dried out a week, it works again. Since it never claimed to be waterproof, advise using a rain shield for outdoor installations, or for covered doorways.

kwikset smart code lock
Would RecommendPurchased this lock over a year ago. Just replaced batteries in January only to start a yearly battery replacement plan. The batteries were still good after all this time of six daily uses. The product has worked extremely well for us, I'm fixing to purchase another same lock for the back door. I'm not one for instructions, I grew up in a construction family, but I had to read the instructions. If you don't read the instructions, maybe three times if need be, you don't take your time, your not...

Love the ease of installing and use!!!
Would RecommendLove Kwikset... have installed all locks with Kwikset Smartkey feature and can change all the locks with a different kwikset key (6 door and 3 zwave) in about 10 minutes: great feature if you have rentals. The warranty is second to none and the zwave works with my IRIS system faultlessly- have had a couple of issues and customer service was great in helping solving these issues. Thank you for a great product line!!!

1-year Electrical Warranty is not Enough
Would Not RecommendI purchased this unit in March 2016 and it worked really well for about a year. I noticed the unit was going through batteries like crazy, but didn't think anything about it. Well, if finally died. I called Kwikset Customer Service and was told the motor was out. The also told me the motor is part of the Electrical 1-year Warranty and that I would need to replace the unit. I will never buy a Kwikset product again, had I bought a Schlage, they would be replacing the unit as they have a 3-year Ele...

Not money's worth back cover sux
Would Not Recommendwaste of money, useless back cover. No access to battery and reset button. Should have bought a diffrent brand, with access to reset button and battery pack. You need to unscrew the whole thing.
