Can you modify the lock so that turning the inside knob unlocks it. Already locked myself out.

I have put in a lot of Schlage locksets and I have never known of a way to do what you are asking to any of them- Including this one.

I've just spent two days with Kwikset "tech support" and they are clueless on how to reverse the lock operation for yours and my situation. I'm positive it can be done but they couldn't tell me how. Ended up buying the Schlage lockset Schlage FE595 CAM 619 ACC Camelot Keypad Entry with Flex-Lock and Accent Levers, Satin Nickel Best decision ever!

Yes, on the small end piece there is a small piece of plastic that you push up or down to lock or unlock. It purposely is difficult to move so that you don't do it accidentally. Use your finger nail to switch it the opposite direction and it should be unlocked.

They sent your question to me as I have ordered a new handle in the past. Mine is not keyed. It is intended to only lock from the inside. If you cand figure out the knock out and instructions try. But I would call a lock smith.

A locksmith can probably do that. I think it uses a Schlage style key blank if I recall. I would not attempt it yourself.

You have to have the key that currently works in the lock to activate the key-change procedure. Odds are against that, I hope.

You can program the lock to auto lock or to manual lock, whatever your preference is. You did need to know that you can open the door from the inside while it remains in the locked position. This could be an issue if you are used to a door that the knob will not turn from either side of the door while locked.

This can only be locked / unlocked with a key. There is no thumb-turn on the inside knob. That is correct.

Yes, you can set that manually with the knob at the bottom left.3 positions: in & out, in only, fully locked.

Chris; I'm not a locksmith, but the image that you copied and sent was a "Passage Door Knob." there is no lock mechanism. There are various Entrance Locks that have knobs and a keypad as well. I would think that as long as you are using a brass lockset, I can't imagine the building not allowing a lever type lock. The lever locks came about primarily because of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act.) If you had trouble grasping a door knob, they (by law) would have to supply you with a lever type lock. I put in a bright brass lever keypad lock like the one pictured to the left. My family all thought that I was nuts, but now they love it. There are several models. The one pictured here has "Z-Wave" capabilities which would allow you to unlock the door remotely if you spend the money on the interface. What I don't like about it, is it is very easy to hit the unlock button on the inside while you are going in or out of the house. I wished that I got the model where you have to manually unlock the door from the inside if you want to disable the keypad. Otherwise, I LOVE IT&gt;

It is basically easy all you have to do is unscrew the 2 screws on the inside the door take off the Lock then take off the 4 screws on the back of the front of the lock with the combination. Hold in the sea button this is a little difficult and then change the lock combination to what you wanted to be. On some models you have to keep the C button pressed in the whole time, the directions will tell you

No, unless you turn the lock on the inside, the door knob remains locked. As for having them keyed alike, I cannot answer that one. We purchased two knobs and have not re-keyed them. We have been very pleased with these knobs.

I did at Home Depot but the "head" at the top of the key they provide is narrow on one side so it allows for the key to be turned to lock and unlock. The one made at Home Depot did not have the narrow "head" so I have to find a way to grind it down. I wonder if I can order more from the manufacturer or just have to make do.

Sorry but I return the it. I may have had a defective one because I couldn't change the combination to my own. Bought the master lock instead.

Hi There,We don't advise that you try and change the combination as it is tricky and more often than not the change does not work properly. Your best bet might be to use a local locksmith. You can however change the combination yourself with a change key that we have at our factory. If you wish, we could send out the key to you at no cost but your warranty on the lock will be void.Sincerely, Blue Dot Safes

I don't think it can--how else are you going to lock yourself out? (kidding!) That's how these locking entry knobs are designed to work, it's a safety feature allowing emergency exit. Schlage does make other styles that do what you want. See http://answers.schlage.com/entries/20379577-When-the-door-is-locked-I-can-still-open-the-door-Emergency-Exit-

Put your code in and retract the door locks by turning the handle clockwise
