Where Is The Program Button On A Kwikset Lock?

Kwikset locks have a program button on the side of the lock. You can press it with a pen or paper clip to open the door. The location of the program button varies depending on the model of Kwikset lock you have:

  1. For some models, such as SmartCode 912 and 910, you’ll see a small button next to the keyhole. The button has three dots on it, which are usually painted in red, blue and yellow.
  2. For other Kwikset locks, such as SmartCode 914 and 913, you’ll find the program button on the side of the lock’s faceplate. It’s most commonly located at the top-left corner (as seen from outside), but it might be more central if there’s not enough room at one end.

How to Add A User Code When Master Code is Enabled?

On a Kwikset Smart Lock, you can add a user code when the master code is either enabled or disabled. So we will first learn how to add a user code when the master code is enabled:

  1. Always make sure that the door is wide open to avoid yourself being locked out.
  2. Now press the program button to put the lock in programming mode. This will set off the check mark to light five times accompanied by five beeps.
  3. Now input the master code and hit the button with lock symbol one time only.
  4. You will have to add the new user code (4 to 8 Digits) and then again hit the lock button.

Now if you see the check mark light and make a beep, it will confirm that the new user code has been added to the lock successfully. Just to be sure test the code if it unlocks the door or not.

Keep in Mind that if the lock flashes Three “X” pattern along with three beeps it means that the user code is not added. If this happens you have to again add the user code and the latter user code must be different from the former one.

How to add a User Code When The Master Code is Disabled?

You can add the user code by performing the following steps:

  2. Input the new user code (4 -8 Digits) and hit the lock symbol.
  3. If the above process was successful, the check mark will light along with a beep. Make sure to test the code to see if it really works.
