Internal handle us wobbly. Need to know how to remove to be able to tighten screws

We cant get the set screw out so we can tighten the lever. Waiting for a contractor to come. Hoping that happens soon.

Kwikset - DEFECTIVE MERCHANDISE PITTED
Kwikset - DEFECTIVE MERCHANDISE PITTED - Image 2

Hello, I AM AN ADVID BUYER OF KWIKSET MERCHANDISE .

THREE YEARS AGO I PURCHASED FROM HOME DEPOT A SET OF DOUBLE ENTRY HARDWARE IN THE SUM OF

$275.00 ( approximately)

THESE ARE MOUNTED ON A MILLION DOLLAR HOME.

IM HOPING I CAN SEND PICTURES TO SHOW KWIKSET THE PITTED AND DISCOLORED METAL.

HOME DEPOT SUGGESTED I WRITE TO KWIKSET TO OBTAIN A REPLACEMENT PACKAGE . HOME DEPOT DOES NOT HAVE A RECORD OF MY PURCHASE AND I. DO NOT HAVE A RECEIPT.

I BELIEVE I PAID CASH.

I DONT WANT SOMETHING FOR NOTHING BUT THIS HARDWARE LOOKS LIKE IT IS 30 YRS OLD

THANKYOU FOR YOUR HELP IN THIS MATTER

Step one fail

Kwikset - Step one fail - Image 2

Step one requires me to call a 800 number that disconnects in the menu tree every time a human is required like they are out of business. I cant have a lock from a company that isn't professional.

disgusting. I'm not good enough to be able to contact them. not chat, nothing.

I'm returning the lock those jerks made no matter how good it was because the corporation is incompetent. A front door lock that connects to the home network requires better than this for sure!

I believe the inset screw that needs to be removed to tighten the door handle is stripped as i cant move it counterclockwise at all yet the 3/32 Allen wrench turns. What do I do to get this off?

I have tried using an elastic band, rubber glove and cant unscrew.

Help. I dont want to have to saw the whole door ensemble etc off.

Kwikset Smartkey Padlocks

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have purchased several of the subject padlocks from Amazon and am very pleased with the product. I decided to order some more and discovered they were out of stock.

Called Kwikset Customer Service this morning and learned that the Smartkey padlocks are no longer available. Im very disappointed that such a great product (as far as Im concerned) is no longer available.

Trying not to be nosy but am very curious as to why the product was discontinued.

I wish I had known about their existence earlier as I would have purchased more of them. To me its a great way to minimize the number of keys I have to keep up with and the price of the padlocks was very economical.

Sincerely,

Daniel Webster

I watched a Yuutube video and after a while I got the lock on. Thank you.

I was locked out of my house for 4 hrs. Went to Lowes and purchased the lock.

I hv never put a lock on before and I was frustratingly stuck.

Although I got several follow up emails after I reached out-I ended up watching a man on you tube assemble the lock. Worked out.
