- Problem
- The house needed a keypad deadbolt — codes instead of hiding a spare key, with a key override still on the lock.
- Diagnosis
- A Powerbolt is a keypad deadbolt on standard door prep. The door still has to latch and the strike still has to line up or the motor and the batteries will fight the door.
- Work
- Fit the Kwikset Powerbolt to the door.
- Confirm the bolt throws, the keypad operates, and the key override still works.
- Result
- Keypad deadbolt on the door, key override retained.
