I got all the cores of the locks at my home replaced free of charge. I explained a problem I had with one of my locks, they asked me to tell them the key number (s) for the locks, and they mailed me six cores plus 6 matching keys, with a set of instructions on how to remove the old cores and install the new ones.

Originally Posted by rrtechno Thanks rrtechno, I looked at the warranty -- it appears I have to send the lockset back to them at my expense for repair or replacement -- but then I don't have a front door handle for however long it takes to get it back to me. If it's something simple, I'd like to just do it myself. I will call them after the holiday though and see what the options are.

Additional giveaways are planned. Metal fire-resistance rated door with a lockset consisting of a locking latchbolt operated by lever handle with an escutcheon that encompasses the locking mechanism. A lockset (alternatively lock set) is the hardware and components that make up the locking or latching mechanism that can usually be found on a door or other hinged object but can also include sliding doors and dividers.
[1] The components of a lockset can include (but are not limited to) the door handles (commonly both inside and outside), latchbolt, dead bolt, face plate, strike plate, escutcheon, thumbturn, push button, turn button, and other trim. The lockset and associated hardware typically defines a door's function and how a user could (or could not) access the two adjacent spaces defined by the opening associated with the lockset. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, under Title III, and many state and local governments regulate locksets in buildings occupied by the public. Typically, locksets that employ door knob controlled latches are forbidden for public use in favor of lever handles, which are easier to operate by gravity instead of the grasping and turning required by knobs. Many municipalities also regulate locksets in terms of fire rating, using standards determined more broadly by national or international organizations such as Underwriters Laboratories in the United States or the International Code Council, which are often supplemented by local governmental organizations, e.g. New York City's Materials and Equipment Acceptance (MEA) Division of their Board of Standards and Appeals (BSA),[2] or by local building codes.
For example, mandates of building code may outlaw, e.g., E2141/F16 "Double-Keyed Deadbolt" from group occupancies, or require, e.g., F93/F15 on hotel or motel doors. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI), a private non-profit organization, and the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association (BHMA) administer and coordinate the voluntary standardization to develop and maintain performance standards for builder's hardware. Locks and handle sets are covered by standard A152.2, deadbolts by A156.5, and finishes by A156.18. The grade specified according to the standards of ANSI/BHMA indicate the security and durability of the lockset. The lockset's latching (resp., locking) mechanism may be of the mortise or cylindrical type.[3] The mortise mechanism resides in a (usually metal) box, requiring for installation a rectangular cavity mortised into the door. The cylindrical mechanism is typically installed into the door via a cavity that can be simply bored into the door, say with a hole saw.
A lockset may incorporate a latchbolt, a deadbolt, or may integrate both into a single lockset. A lockset may be fitted with a keyable lock on inside, on outside, or not at all, the latter being known as a non-keyed lockset. If the lockset has a single keyed side, it is called a keyed, single-cylinder lockset, if both, a keyed, double-cylinder lockeset. In this aspect, the word "cylinder" refers to any type of keyed cylinder lock, rather than to the type of mechanism of the lockset. Locksets come in many variant types, each appropriate to a particular use.[4] Lockset manufacturers may describe a lockset product in terms of how a door is operated by a user, while ANSI/BHMA assign standard alphanumeric codes to the function of a lockset.[7] For accurate and precise descriptions, the standard function code should be used when specifying a lockset. ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t ^ a b c d e f ^ a b c d e f g h Click on the "SUPPLIERS LIST" below to view our complete
