The cover pivots to expose lock. Yes, it is stiff but protects opening from elements. I don't think I would try to remove but rather swivel. Hope this helps.

I had a few moments myself with the cover. Press your finger down and slide to right or left....presto! The key chamber should appear.

It just pivots out of the way. Just take your thumb and slide it out of the way. I don't think it needs to be removed.

I had a key get damaged. I emailed customer service who promptly send me a new one. Taking the old one off and putting the new one on is a little tricky but if you have small tools and some patience it can be done. The key is held on by a metal pin that you can pop out and replace by prying up on the broken key.

To get the round cover off, you need to remove the lever and shaft assembly on one side of the latch. You will need a 2.5mm or 3/32 hex key to remove one of the levers/shaft piece. (these are supplied when you buy the set new) There is an hex screw on one lever/shaft assembly look for it on the right side of the shaft. Undo the screw and slide the lever and shaft assembly off. Carefully grip the round cover and turn it counter clockwise while pulling it toward you-it is a friction fit and should come off easily. A pair of rubber nitrile gloves can help you "get a grip" -do not use any metal tool like pliers or a screwdriver as the cover is light duty and easily damaged Once you remove the cover, you will see the 2 phillips screws that hold the latch together. There is no need to remove the other cover on the other side as the lever/shaft assembly on that side is fixed permanently anyways

There are 4 grey circles on the front of the case around the key pad. These circles are the threaded rods which hold in the lock. If you can drill through them the lock will fall out. It will ruin the case. You could take a 3/4 drill bit and drill 3 holes in a row near the hinge side leaving very little spacing between them then use a sawzall to cut down the length of the case it will allow you to remove the door with a little muscle. There is no easy in/ a way to get in without destroying the case.

Not hard at all. I used a smallish, flat-head screwdriver to pry it open with very little trouble. There should be a little quarter-inch gap on the bottom (closest to the hole for your key ring) where you can wedge the screwdriver in. Then just keep wiggling it up and down til it pops open. Then you grab the inside mechanism, pop it into the new casing and click it closed. Hope this is helpful.

The two silver clips holding the black cover are hard to remove. Just pull them off but you may need a tool (something like a pliers to pull). Pull gently, they do come off.

I haven't tried to remove it myself, but the only way I could even see it being removable at all would be to completely take your keyboard apart (which I believe voids the warranty, I'm not sure) and pull it out from underneath.

No, it is not designed to be removed. Why would you want to remove it? The Cover serves a purpose to keep it clean and prevent unwanted keys to be hit when not in action.
