We ended up exchanging this model for the slimmer version kzbin.infoUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU because it was too wide for the only door trim area that made sense to mount it on. However, we should have just noted the dimensions prior to purchasing. Otherwise, we love the doorbell. It works perfectly, and the video is very clear, even at night.

Very Helpful Video. Nicely Done. Thank You

[@rlucas12348]

Great video! However I did spot one mistake. You didn’t tighten the set screw that holds the cylinder from turning. I really enjoyed the video though! Very informative! 👍🏻

Need to set the screw for the cylinder

[@g.davies1365]

It was accidentally edited out of the video.

[@nyceguy7543]

Nice video. From the orientation of the latchbolt, it appears to me that the door opens to the outside. If so, how common is this type of handedness? Thanks.

[@g.davies1365]

Not as common as inswing, but fairly common on closets and other tight spaces.

[@andrewfrey5562]

My lock isn't resetting when I unlock the deadbolt leaving my exterior hand stuck in a locked position. Is there a toggle to adjust that?

[@drewinstallshardware]

I’ve seen that if sometimes the deadbolt doesn’t retract all the way. Maybe an alignment issue?

[@andrewfrey5562]

@drewinstallshardware I think it was a malfunctioning unit. I took it back to my vendor and had them replace it.

[@johndododoe1411]

Any videos of how to install similar European style locks, such as Scandinavian ASSA and the continental ones for Euro Cylinders? Both types use nuts+bolts instead of most of the wood screws on these US style locks, with the nuts and bolts interlocking with the lock box inside the door in different ways.

[@abushufiyan559]

Good technology

[@leozmaxwelljilliumz3360]

Any help with re assembling the lock incase I stupidly opened it and cant figure out how to get it back together?

[@adnguyen2305]

If the deadbolt doesn't extend correctly how can I fix?

[@brandonlong5276]

It bucks me that you have to to turn the deadbolt to the left instead of the direction it moves.

[@drewinstallshardware]

Never thought about that! But now I do 😂

[@timbutler5690]

Need to order some internal pats

[@The-greek82]

how to replace the cylinder in case it broke

[@saltypipefitter4618]

he literally showed you

[@henrywang3942]

where to buy this lock?

[@tataed8035]

How to lock it from the outside with the keys? We tried it but we cannot pull out the keys from the lock

[@drewinstallshardware]

I would guess you may have the wrong cam on the back of the cylinder.

[@srcr9529]

What hand is this lock?

[@drewinstallshardware]

I don’t see any hinges so I’m not sure! 😂

[@g.davies1365]

Right Hand Reverse

[@saltypipefitter4618]

locks can be handed bro not sure what you are talking about @@drewinstallshardware

[@mohammadabdulraheem6766]

storeroom function lock can be changed to class room function..... is it possible?? please advise

[@g.davies1365]

If you have a BEST UNR universal function, yes. If it's a function-specific lock case, it's not advised to try.

[@andremassy1664]

What does it mean when the lock doesn’t close all the way like it’s stuck???

[@johndododoe1411]

Maybe something is actually jammed in the door, or the strike plate isn't the same distance from the frame edge as the center of the lock center from the door edge.

[@mikethrasher6447]

Man....just tell me why the heck these are failing on me..... I've literally replaced 30 lock bodies in the past 6 months.

[@drewinstallshardware]

Dang! Did u ever figure out what was going on??

[@saltypipefitter4618]

they are repairable bro

[@martinlumiere98]

Kaba exper T où GEGE?

[@patrickmcdonald4365]

Does the Best 40H series replace the 80H series?

[@g.davies1365]
