Kwikset 83260 SmartKey Reset Cradle - Quantity 1

Kwikset smartkey is a good concept. User must be careful to insert the smart key tool in the correct orientation and push in all the way. Also, should turn the new key SLOWLY when re-keying. I believe I turned the new re-key too quickly and the cylinder tumblers did not align properly. I then ended up with a cylinder that neither key would fit. Enter the smartkey reset cradle. It was very easy and quick to recover the cylinder tumblers to a key. Just follow the quick, simple procedures. It actually takes about 30 seconds to perform. Reading the instructions takes longer than actually doing the job. Great tool. It's in my toolbox in the event I ever need it again. Beats pulling the lock and taking to the locksmith.

After messing up a new kwikset lock this device allowed me to fix it in 5 minutes. After installing another kwikset lock I discovered that there were no keys it in the box and again this device allowed me to reset it to any key.
