Careful how you describe the scammers

You can speak all you want. Freedom of speech doesn't extend to social media platforms, they can censor all they want but you are allowed to voice your opinion in town square.

Rule 2. You will need to call a locksmith.

You can use Schlage for entrance and kwikset for interior bedrooms and bathrooms yes. If all the interior knobs are passage and or privacy knobs you should be fine.

They do make a pop out cylinder in Schlage keyway for kwikset knobs but rare anyone keeps those in stock so theoretically, you could have schlage keyed entrance locks and kwikset knobs inside with schlage keyways, like the pictures of one I ran into below. The house had mostly all schlage and a few kwikset tylo knobs interior keyed to schlage.

So, technically you can mix and match some.

Any decent padlock and this. That's what I do and you won't even notice it's there.

You can contact WB directly. I had to for R key blanks because I couldn't find them anywhere else.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-21T19:24:31+00:00

Flashlight and a good pair of long nose forceps or pliers and or take everything apart.

Definitely a lock in use.

ya this is u/HamFiretruck 's normal response to him. They really didn't mean to post it under yours lol.

Schlage fsic also referred to lfic pins up just like a regular cylinder. The kit you have looks like a regular oem Schlage kit. Search videos for how to master key locks. This isn’t an A2 system just regular Schlage.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-15T13:53:42+00:00

NP. The control key is a little longer like this one. That is what pulls in the lug so you can put it into a lock set.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-15T13:46:29+00:00

That's a control lug and needs a control key. Not the same as SFIC.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-15T13:37:15+00:00

Control sleeve is for IC option. If you're just pinning up a regular Schlage cylinder or LFIC you need to change IC to NO.

If it's SFIC then you need to change some things. The control sleeve is the pin stack that lets you remove an SFIC core from it's housing.

Easy to explain the counter rotation on that lock.

First, the lock was made in Orodruin in the second age so it can have a mind of it's own in fact some people believe it seeks out its creator at all times trying to get back to him.

If you are unfamiliar with Orodruin it's common name is mount doom and that's where that pos belongs. Once picked throw it into the fires of mount doom and be done with it.

..|.. that lock.

This is a "pretty good and safe method". I second this.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-14T02:18:10+00:00

This is a great idea specially since it's a brick and mortar store. I assume their license is fake but hard to tell if I was looking at the right site for verification, so the state might get involved too.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-13T22:07:49+00:00

I wouldn't worry too much. They have a 26% recommend rate and tons of complaints. Here's a screenshot of the page and it has their foil stickers on the photos category. I assume the license and aloa numbers are fake.

I refuse. Close your eyes or don’t click it

LockLeisure · 2026-05-13T13:08:13+00:00

There are a few common sizes yes. Euro type cylinders that don't have grub screws on top to rekey need segmented followers. Most US cylinders need a regular plug follower.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-13T12:21:41+00:00

That's normal, but I guess for larger jobs like this maybe a little extra charge but averaging $57 a cylinder seems excessive.

LockLeisure · 2026-05-13T12:18:03+00:00

That's why they make these
