Operating Instructions
The Weiser Smart Key Deadbolt is operated using a key from both sides of the door.
Locking the Deadbolt:
- Insert the key fully into the keyway on either the interior or exterior side of the deadbolt.
- Turn the key clockwise until the deadbolt bolt is fully extended into the door frame.
- Remove the key.
Unlocking the Deadbolt:
- Insert the key fully into the keyway on either the interior or exterior side of the deadbolt.
- Turn the key counter-clockwise until the deadbolt bolt is fully retracted from the door frame.
- Remove the key.
SmartKey Rekeying Functionality:
The SmartKey feature allows you to rekey your lock to a new key in seconds, providing convenience and enhanced security. This is particularly useful if you lose a key or wish to consolidate multiple locks to a single key.
- Insert Current Key: Insert your currently working key (the "old" key) fully into the deadbolt cylinder and turn it 90 degrees clockwise.
- Insert Rekeying Tool: While the old key is still turned, insert the SmartKey rekeying tool (included with the lock) into the small hole next to the keyway. Apply firm pressure until you feel a click.
- Remove Old Key: Remove the old key while keeping the rekeying tool inserted.
- Insert New Key: Insert your new key (the key you wish to use from now on) fully into the cylinder.
- Remove Rekeying Tool: Remove the rekeying tool.
- Test New Key: Turn the new key 90 degrees counter-clockwise to return the cylinder to its original position. Test the new key by locking and unlocking the deadbolt several times. Ensure the old key no longer operates the lock.
Note: The rekeying process permanently changes the lock's keying. Ensure you have the new key readily available before starting the process.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and smooth operation of your Weiser deadbolt.
- Cleaning: Clean the exterior of the deadbolt with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or a silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for locks into the keyway. Do not use oil-based lubricants as they can attract dirt and debris.
- Screw Tightness: Check mounting screws periodically and tighten if necessary to ensure the deadbolt remains securely fastened to the door.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Weiser Smart Key Deadbolt, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Key does not insert or turn smoothly. | Debris in keyway, worn key, or lack of lubrication. | Clean keyway with compressed air. Try a new or spare key. Apply graphite or silicone lubricant to the keyway. |
| Deadbolt does not extend or retract fully. | Misalignment of lock components, loose screws, or door/frame issues. | Check and tighten all mounting screws. Ensure the strike plate on the door frame is properly aligned with the deadbolt. Verify the door frame is not warped. |
| SmartKey rekeying fails. | Rekeying tool not fully inserted, old key not fully turned, or incorrect new key. | Ensure the old key is fully inserted and turned 90 degrees. Press the rekeying tool firmly until a click is felt. Use a new, uncut key for the rekeying process. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, contact Weiser customer support for further assistance.
