Gibson Sectional Keyed Handleset with Single Cylinder SmartKey Lock 4.6 5 16 18
Great experience! "Very happy with this purchase. It was sent to me very quickly and cost less than I would have paid locally". July 5, 2010
Great looking I'm very happy with the purchase of this handleset. It was easy to install, and it looks great on my door. I would recommend using handlesets.com to anyone in the market looking for hardware for their door. August 2, 2011
Great door Handleset It's difficult to find a door handle with both a dead bolt and handle lock. This is a great looking and functioning handle. Some may not like the panic feature, where you can open the door from the inside with the handle locked... if you close the door on yourself (say to get the mail), the handle will have you locked out. The Dead bolt is very sturdy. easy to install. Love it June 11, 2011
Just what I wanted Wanted a lock that had a dead bolt AND a lock in the handleset--- this was just what I was looking for. I also wanted the outside a different finish than the inside - again just what I wanted. Would order again. Great finish, weight and look! May 19, 2011
Great buy and looks great Looks great. Price was right. Like the smart key feature. Don't have to replace lock sets if I misplace a key April 20, 2011
LOVE MY HANDLESET Wonderful product, excellent customer service and best of all it was an exact match to the Kwikset pair that I had installed on my double entry doors nearly ten years ago. Thank you Handlesets.......Review of Kwikset 553GN-LIP-S November 19, 2010
Product is fine, service was excellent. This product works fine, and actually is about the only set that works and fits the doors in the complex, so it works, and i can't really say more. What I can say is the amazing service and good price from Handlesets.com. I often need these handlesets, and have ordered them twice, getting the product in two days with no hastle. Great job, Thanks September 30, 2010
Dissapointed I purchased this lock after having another Kwikset lock for 5 years. It suddenly fell apart, not the bolt, but the rest so we were left with a partial lock. Went to the store to purchase just the bottom half but had to purchase a new system so it would match. Unfortunately this continues when I tried to put in the lock in our steel door and it did not match up with the new one. SO we spent more money and time, called a locksmith to finish the job, then if we had gotten a different quality of lock.The directions were backwards for most of the installation. The new lock was jammed even tho never used,so we had to use parts from the old system. Lookin' good does not mean it is good.Be careful. July 23, 2010
Very happy with this purchase. It was sent to me very quickly and in a very protective box. Seems to be a solid handset . This is a replacement for me as the other set finish was not a lifetime finish. I trust this finish will not deteriorate. January 22, 2010
Very good product, Great Customer Service The product was very good quality, fit as a replacement relatively well. Very efficient order processing and shipping. Keep up the good work! January 2, 2010
