Kwikset CP912TNLZW500-11PS Tustin Lever Lockset in Venetian Bronze

This lock has worked well and reliably for many years. The batteries generally last six months to one year depending on the seasonal temperatures and use. I have used this with both Smart things and currently a Hubitat c-7 hub. For initial set-up, both required the lock to be in close proximity of the hub for inclusion. The device works well with Siri through Homebridge and has been tested with Alexa. Alexa was not used many years ago for security concerns, but now properly configured, Alexa should work. Since this is installed below a Kiwikset Smart deadbolt it was necessary to shorten the height of the device and this does require loosening and tilting the assembly to remove the battery pack for battery replacement. The height could be easily shortened by the manufacturer since the style is cosmetic. To do this, one needs a Dremel type cutter, a scape piece of plastic, super glue and some paint.

this is the third lock I'm ordering over the past 5 yrs. the first one was trashed when I washed the door. the second during a rainstorm. i love everything about the lock save this defect, if kwikset could find a way to make the electronics more water resistant, it would rate 5 stars
