This video shows how to easily reset or program a Kwikset Powerbolt 2 deadbolt door lock. How to use the programming chart that comes with the lock. Follows all the steps to reset the lock back to its original factory defaults. Change the Master code, adding new user codes, deleting user codes along with how to enable the Auto Locking feature. For SECURITY reasons I show you how to change the factory Master Code and delete the factory User Code so that criminals can not enter using those well known codes. If you have a problem I have listed some solutions below.
DISCLAIMER: I am not associated with Kwikset or any lock company nor am I a locksmith. Be sure to read and follow all safety instructions that came with the lock. If there are any conflicts between what I have said and those instructions from the factory always do what the factory says.
I read all comments but I do not reply due to the many requests for help. Please refer all problems to Kwikset or to the place you purchased the lock from. I have listed some solutions to address the most commonly asked for help concerns.
PROBLEMS can be 1 of 3 Categories: Software; Hardware or Defects.
1) Check to make sure you have FRESH BATTERIES.
2) If you have any problems Always start at the beginning and RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULTS.
3) The MASTER CODE (MC) does NOT open the lock only the USER CODE (UC) opens the lock.
(the Master Code is a like a password to change, delete, or create new USER CODES)
4) HARDWARE: If its a newly installed lock, problems might be an alignment issue or something
like the left or right knob not set up correctly. Refer to the installation instructions that came with
with the lock.
5) DEFECT: Refer to Kwikset or the place you purchased the lock from.
I hope this video helps you. I enjoy reading all the comments please:

After going through 10 useless videos and 3 manuals i stumbled onto this video and thanks to you its set properly now
I spend so much time wasted on the factory manual on how to program this thing. Almost gave up and about to uninstall and returned to home depot. Until i watched this. He made it so easy to understand and so clear. Thanks for making this video.
I was also about to give up. I had messed it up so bad it wouldn’t even work just beep at me. Even the lock was over my shit. This gentleman saved the day
This man needs to have two things done 1) paid by kwikset for making such a great and easy to follow video. 2) kwikset needs to hire this man to make all of their “how to” videos moving forward. Well done Sir, thank you so very much.
Agreed. Love Kwiksets animations BUT... I procrastinated setting up these locks for so long as I didn't know I needed to factory reset and then do left and right hand config! Lol
Don’t you mean Weiser? I was losing my temper with the instructions that came with my power bolt 2. Thanks 🙏
Totally agree
I agree 100%
Brilliant how he gave the employees codes. Very smart. Kwikset should be paying him for this video. So clear and concise. Love it.
I think Kwikset needs to put a link to this video in every package. This is the most helpful and easy to follow instructions! I couldn’t have done this without this man! Thank you so much.
3 years later you are still helping people, thank you very much followed this and took less than 5 minutes after spending over 30 with the given instructions.
Now it’s SIX years lager and this sweet gentleman kept me from freaking out. I had it so messed up it would only beep at me. Wouldn’t even lock anymore. This guy saved the day
Excellent!!! KwikSet customer service was zero help! This man is my hero!!! Thank you very much Sir!!!
How could anyone give this a thumbs down? The gentleman went out of his way to help you.
People that are too stupid and couldn't figure it out with his easy instructions. You can enter their house by entering 1234 and open lol.
They're jealous he has butlers,and maids.
They are probally part of Far left probally,hes white and all right..
@@devinonred.3917 literally. Straight up haters cuz they can’t be him
The thing that tripped me up for about 20 minutes was thinking the "Master Code" was used to lock/unlock the lock. Once I figured out its the code to gain access to the rest of the settings for the lock this tutorial was amazing.
Thank you Sir. You are a Meticulous Detailed individual. I usually have trouble because the instructions on You Tube videos are not precise. These instructions are Precise. Thank you thank you thank you
This is the only video that helped me set up new codes. Thank you Sir.
This video was amazing!! We moved into our new house and have been trying forever to program this damn thing with no luck. I was actually going to pay someone to help and I watched your video and its programmed like that. Thank you so much!!!
Same! I swear i did all the same exact steps and it didnt work but when i followed along with him, it worked immediately. Which is somehow more frustrating hahaha but hey! I can use my lock now!
Amazing and simple instructions to follow!!! Thanks so much Ron!! The best 17 minutes to know how to program an electronic lock.
I can’t thank you enough for this video!!! I was lost, lost, lost trying to get it programmed!!! Your instructions are so clear and easy to follow! Thank you again!! I give it a BIG thumbs up!!! 👍🏻 👍🏻👍🏻
Can we just give this man props for having 2 maids, a butler and a cook
Word. I thought me having a cleaning lady come by once a week was stellar enough! #LifeGoals
Hope you thanked this gentleman for making your door lock so successful.
This was so helpful. I talked directly to kwikset and they couldn't help me. After walking through this it worked fine. Thank you!
Ooôôôôooooô ooôôôôooooô il y
The factory must pay you for this
Amazing video
Yes, Kwikset needs to pay this guy! Thank you sir
Thank you so much for this how to video.bought a house over a year ago it has a kwikset lock .didn't know to program it been locked out of my house twice forgot my keys. Was searching for videos about this lock. found this one and it took me about 5 minutes to get it up and working .so thank you much love and respect.
Your tutorial was spot on!! I never saw any tutorial that made everything so simple!! Great job!!!
Simple? I would hate to see complicated.
I CAN NOT THANK YOU ENOUGH! my boyfriend and I literally spent at least an hour individually trying to set up our code. You explained everything down to the T!! Especially deleting the code “1234” other videos were NOT clear of that very IMPORTANT piece of information! THANK YOU THANK YOU SIR!!! 🥰
my neighbor has tried first a year to change her master code, I got it first try with the help from your video. Thanks
You are incredible.
Thoughtful in your words and description. I am not mechanically inclined and have never been. I spent 4 hours watching videos and reading manuals until I found you.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Ron: You're the best! No one could figure out how to program it! After months of waiting to resolve it, I came upon your video, and voila! Thank you, thank you for the simple, step-by-step instructions that made it so easy and frustration-free. God bless you!.
I agree with the previous comments! This video is amazing! Very easy to understand and follow. Thank you for making a video for someone like myself who is not technically inclined. Kwikset should defiantly put you on payroll! Thanks again
Thank you so very much! I have spent hours (if not days) trying to figure this out. Finally after watching your video I got it to work!!! Mu wife thinks I'm a star!!
WOW!! Thank you!! The factory direction we're TOTALLY useless. Your video was the first one the popped up on u-tube and ..... You put so much time into your mock-up door and lock, and printing out step by STEP..... Very very well done!!
Thank You!!! I am now subscribe to your channel
Awesome explanation!! Thank you so much!!

OMG you saved me. Directions in the box didn't make sense. Once you explained that you will have to do all that is in each column and showed me I got it. Thanks
So glad I found your video. I wanted my lock to go back to auto locking. I did the factory reset and the lock was not working. Didn't know I had to program it to lock. Got that done. Never gave a second thought to criminals using the factory 1 2 3 4 user code. Removed that. I'm a safe happy camper now. Thank you so much!
I watched another YT vid on how to install the lock and do the initial programming. It worked perfectly. I then read over the instructions to learn how to do additional programming and was immediately lost. Your vid made everything so easy, and more importantly, covered the part about deleting the factory UC. Thank you!
Thank you for your explanation for this lock..!! Once I watched your video and listened to your directions I was able to easily understand how to manipulate the lock..!! 👍
Wow!
I was pulling my hair out until I found you!
Thank you so much!!
I lost the instructions, and just when i was about to give up came up on ur video... Most helpfull video ive ever seen thanx
Greatly appreciate your help and time making this video for people like me who find it quicker and easier to watch it being explained than read through the instructions! A million thank you's!
Thank you only person who explained like I could understand it
This is the best instructional video on CZcams!!!
Thank you I installed then went to bed watched this video only to find out 1234 was still a default key... Ran downstairs and deleted that code... Thanks for the heads up
Excellent video Ron! Thank you for all of the time and energy you put into it. Kwikset should be giving you a kickback. Their instructions were confusing. Thanks Again.
Thank you, you remind me of one of my professors in college, calm, analytical and concise. The funniest part was when you fired the cook because after 10 years ended using too much salt so, no more access code for him. Again THANKS, I couldn’t have set the darn lock without your thorough explanation.
ugh - thank you! bought my house almost 5 years ago - only recently need to change the battery and wiped everything. I'll be making some notes so that I'm not clueless in the future! And bookmarking this video.
Excellent video. Kwikset should give you big thanks for keeping their customers happy. Thanks again. ?:-)
Thank you!! I’m a visual learner and this video helped me relieve a headache!
You came to my rescue again! Thank you for posting this video.
Kudos for this video, lost a lot of time with the instructions inside the box, simply didn't work. Tried factory reset a least a half dozen, didn't work. This video got me up and running in 15 minutes. Thanks
Excellent video even after 6 years. I am going to give a try as you instructed. Thanks very much Toolalot
Excellent video! My lock came with only Spanish instructions. The install was easy but the programming was a little difficult until I watched this video. Good job!
Thank you for the video. I have used it three times to reprogram door locks as tenants changed.
Thank you, this is an amazingly helpful video. I was completely lost trying to follow the directions to get this thing to work. But your video was so easy to follow and everything works now.I couldn’t complement you more. Thank you
I purchased this lock 3 days ago and I had a locksmith install it today I’m so glad that I came across this video it has been so helpful I was able to delete the default UC as well as change the MC . Thank you so much for this video, explained in great detail and very easy to follow…🦋🦋🦋
WOW! You deserve an Award for this … it was very very helpful! It was sooo much easier to view your video to program and to even understand the visual aid back of battery cover. Thx a bunch!
Very informative video. Thank you! Kwikset should include this video in their instructions.
After tons of frustration with the written instructions, you saved the day. Many thanks!
Thank you !!!!! I was so frustrated I began taking that thing off the door to box and return it as defective. Then I thought "You Tube". I found your tutorial, which is clear and simple. You're awesome for sharing.
Wonderful video. Saw for just first 5 mins and understood the concept. My lock company is not even the above one!
Thank the Lord!! I'm pretty tech savvy but for the life of me I couldn't decipher the directions that came with this lock!! This was what I needed.
Thank you so much for making this video. As someone else said, Kwikset should hire you to write their instructions and also put the URL to this video on their instructions. Thanks again.
Thank you for making this video and making it make sense. If you was to ask me Kwikset should have the link to this video on the box. And pay you of course a a respectable amount. I couldn't make sense of the directions they made them over complicated. Of course once you learn it just like anything it becomes easy. But for most of us this is are first time installing something like this. You made the process very understandable and less stressful with how you spoke and how you enlarged the process diagram. I thank you for taking time out of your life to help total strangers that you'll never meet. And like I said Kwikset should so you gratitude and appreciation and send you a thank you check no less tan $1000 and But this video link on their box... I thank you again sir.
Thank you so much for this detailed directions. I had this lock for couple years and didn’t know about 1234 code that comes with the lock. Also added few more users, thanks to your easy to follow video.
Year 2022, and your video is still helping people out here!! I had to watch twice, but I’m just slow sometimes! I couldn’t grasp I needed to go from step 1 instead of skipping to new UC haha.
You are awesome!!! I’m property manger for many homes and I couldn’t figure it out until I saw your video!!! Thank you very much
Great video!!! Saved me from hours of frustration.
working on it for about an hour gave up and looked up your video ,withing a minute i got it going .thanks appreciate your tutorial
This has to be the best video out there for programming this particular lock! Thanks so much! The directions are very unclear and I’ve been trying to figure it out for a month! Kwikset needs to use this video to explain the process!
Thank you bro.
I was having a hard time reprogramming my codes after a year installation.
You helped me a lot.
This is the second time I have used your video and thank you so very much. What I hate is it is that easy to do when you finally figure it out but you make it easy to get there. GREAT VIDEO
The instructions inside the box were terrible. Thank goodness for this video!!!
Thank you, thank you! Your pictures and instructions made the process crystal clear. Saved me from calling a locksmith.
This was incredible, after trying it several times without success, I decided to seek explanatory visual help. Following all your steps I managed to do it without problems. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. It helped me greatly. God bless you!
You are a genius!!! Thanks to you I learned to use and create a new codes for the first time!
The company that manufactures the lock should give you royalties on your excellent publicity The way you teach and explains the instructions!!!!
They were supposed to give clearer operating instructions and therefore for me this company is one big failure.
Thanks again dear man!
Thank you so much for this video it was a big help. All your steps were easy to follow and understand. I felt like a pro after I fixed our lock even my husband was surprised I got it done without his help thanks to you.
Thank you.. as most mentioned here.. factory directions were useless. You saved a lot of time for me. Thank you very much!
This was the best video explanation I’ve ever used. Great job!
I only needed 14 minutes of your video and had mine working. Excellent video!
Thank you!! I was really frustrated after inheriting this project from my husband - who was frustrated first! ;) Turns out he must have programmed some code into the system, because resetting it completely was all I needed to do. You're a life saver!
Excellent video. Simple but shows how much work you had to put to get this video done. Spent all evening following the instructions manual but nothing worked. You saved the day. Thanks again
This is very helpful! Thank you!
Wow I looked everywhere and no one could explain it as well as this man. Thank you for making this video!
you should be a math teacher! So patient and detail
This worked for me on our Kwikset Venetian Bronze Front Entry Hawthorn X Juno Knob Handleset Single Cylinder. I've needed to delete codes for so long. Thank you!!!
Bless you I was ready to send this lock back. Thanks so much.
This is the best video on CZcams
You are a genius! I struggled for two days! You saved me. You got a new subscriber!! Thank you sir
directions in the box made no sense, thank you for helping me set the codes correctly :)
Thank you soooooo much for this video!! You have no idea how much this helped!! I couldn’t reprogram this damn lock to save my life !!
Thank you for your help. The instructions on the lock where useless and in different languages :) the factory should pay and sponsor you for your great work.
Always wanted this for my house but was so confusing, Thanks for the Step by Step looking forward to it now
I agree the subject was completely covered with all options slowly, clearly and concisely!❤
This video has helped more than once. Thank you !
You are better than the manual. Thanks!
Thank you so much, your video is a million times More Helpful than the company video!!!
Thank you so much for this video I bought a Kwikset smart code lock 909. I did not know there was a built-in code. But this video you helped me delete it. thank you
a very good slide and instructions, like a professional instructor.
This is the best video and best instructed one on here to see !! Two thumbs up
Thank you so much, this video make it so much easier to reset and program the lock.
Thank goodness I found this video. I was so confused by the instructions.
this video was most helpful!!! thank you so much for all of the effort you put in to make it so effortless for the rest of us
Love, love, love your detailed and perfect directions!!! Thank you SO much!
So great! After 3 wasted evenings with no success, I'm hopeful that this will help me get it done!
This very same item is branded as Weiser through Lowe's Canada. Great upload, lots of detail, thank you.
Thank you so much for braking it down. 5 ⭐️ for describing it in to detail.
