This tool makes it easy to pop out the lock cylinders on Kwikset locks so you can flip them 180 degrees. It didn't won't work on some really old Kwikset locks in our house. But it works great on the ones that we installed recently. You can use a couple of thin screwdrivers to pop the locks, too (there are a number of online videos that show how to do this), but this tool is so much faster and easier.

Handy tool that allowed me to rekey my side door rather than buying a whole new set of locks or hiring a locksmith. You can dismantle 90% of the Kwikset lock without it (what I attempted to do on my first attempt), but it's so much easier with this.Pros: Only costs a few bucks, not a huge loss if it doesn't work out. Both ends are designed for specific functions. The rounded end allows you to disengage the spindle to get access to the cylinder. The end with the two points dislodges the cylinder and can remove the locking clips.Cons: Does not come with instructions, but there are a number of guides or videos online that will walk you through the process.

Doesn’t come with directions but you can use YouTube. I got a Kwikset lock where, when installed made the key go in upside down. Kelsey says that’s fine but it wasn’t for me. Found a video. Used this tool and switched it to the right way in about 10 minutes. It’s worth the $ to avoid ruining locks.

I'm glad to have this in my toolbox. Prior to getting this, I'd been removing lock cylinders using only screwdrivers and curse words. This little tool is so simple to use and has likely added years to my life.

I had an upside down key on a left handed door. Used this removal tool for Weiser Troy GA531 and the cylinder assembly instantly came out. Much easier than using other tools that may damage the lock. Surprised this item is not being sold in stores next to the hardware. The website has a user manual.

This tool is used to rotate the cylinder so that your key hole is not upside down. It can be done without this tool but it is a lot easier with it. It did not come with instructions so you have to look online for instructions. This works for the knob type handles. DOES NOT WORK WITH LEVER TYPE HANDLES (ex. Lido). For the lever type you need a small flat head screwdriver to pull out a pin holding the cylinder in place. The description of this product should have mentioned this.
