Product Description

Protect your belongings and home with the Kwikset Nickel Stainless Steel Lock. This bored thumbturn lock offers a relatively quick and easy installation process, usually only requiring you to drill two holes in the door. With a single locking mechanism, this Kwikset lock is simpler for kids to use since it has a thumbturn key on the inside of the door. It features a left and right-handed design, which allows the hinges and lever on the door to be adjusted by anyone. Built with a cylindrical lock type, it is significantly tougher than other common locks.

This lock has a nickel build, which maintains its initial appearance so that you can rely on it lasting for years to come. With an anti-bump construction, it allows the pins to stay in their original place and counters break-ins. Featuring an anti-drill design, it ensures that the internal mechanisms won't snap, resulting in a more durable lock that will guarantee the door stays closed. With an adjustable latch, this lock will fit any standard door. It has a key and thumbturn and is suitable for use in domestic locations.
