What door hole diameter is required to install Halo and Aura locks?

Halo Keypad, Halo Touchscreen, and Aura locks are compatible with 1-1/2” (38mm) and 2-1/8” (54mm) door holes.

Halo Touch fingerprint locks require 2-1/8” (54mm) door holes.

What do I need to correct a door that is warped or has been affected by weather?

Please refer to the Warped Door Installation Guide for the necessary adjustments to properly prepare your door for a smart lock installation.

Installation

How do I install Halo or Aura lock on my door?

To install your Halo or Aura lock, refer to the following instructions:

• Halo / Aura Interactive Guide
• Halo Touch Installation Guide PDF
• Halo Touchscreen Installation Guide PDF
• Halo Keypad Installation Guide PDF
• Aura Installation Guide PDF

Why is the lock performing the opposite when I’m locking or unlocking the door using the Kwikset app?

Perform the following steps to correct the issue:

1. Check that the lock orientation is correct. Note: “UP” on latch should be facing up (Fig. 1).
   
2. If incorrect, reinstall the lock to correct orientation. Installation Guide links can be found in Question 2A.
   During installation, ensure that turnpiece shaft is pointing up (Fig. 2). To rotate turnpiece shaft, put the cover back on the interior and rotate the turnpiece until it is pointing up. You may hear a click.
3. Perform Manual Door Handing steps.
4. If the above steps do not fix the issue, call our support center at 1-800-327-5625 to order a new latch.

What is “handing” or latch calibration?

Handing, or latch calibration, is the way that the smart lock learns the orientation of your door (left- or right-handed).

How do I “hand” or calibrate my lock?

A1: The first time the battery is inserted, the lock will perform automatic calibration, or “handing.” You will know the handing is taking place when the latch bolt retracts and extends on its own.

A2: The first time that lock or unlock is performed using the Kwikset app or access code, the lock will automatically perform latch calibration.

A3: Perform Manual Door Handing steps.

The turnpiece is difficult to turn by hand.

Perform Manual Door Handing steps.

My lock is giving me a jam error.

A1: With the door open, press the lock button. If you do not get a jam error with the door open, the strike pocket on your door frame may not be deep enough. Ensure that the strike pocket is at least 1” (25mm) deep.

A2: Perform Manual Door Handing steps.

Batteries

How do I replace the (4) AA batteries?

1. If the security screw is not installed, slide the interior cover window up.
   
   If the security screw is installed, remove the entire interior cover.
   
2. Remove the battery pack.
   
3. Replace the batteries.
   

How can I tell if the batteries need to be replaced?

A1: For Aura and Halo Keypad, the keypad flashes red with fast beeping sound for three to four seconds after a motorized operation, such as locking or unlocking with an access code.

For Halo Touchscreen, the checkmark and lock symbols flash simultaneously five times with five beeps after a motorized operation, such as locking or unlocking with an access code.

For Halo Touch, the exterior LED flashes red and beeps after a motorized operation, such as locking or unlocking with a fingerprint.

A2: A battery level indicator is also available in the Kwikset app, along with a notification when the battery level is low. In addition, the interior status LED will blink red.

What can I do if I frequently need to replace batteries?

A1: Check that the Kwikset app is updated to the latest version and that your lock’s firmware does not need to be updated.

A2: Check that the door is properly aligned. For helpful tips on getting the door to align, refer to the Warped Door Installation Guide. Resistance to both locking and unlocking because of door misalignment will reduce both motor and battery life.

A3: Check that the lock is properly installed, and the cable is routed and stored correctly (Fig. 3).

A4: Perform Manual Door Handing to make sure that the lock knows the correct direction for locking and unlocking.

A5: Make sure that the lock has a strong Wi-Fi connection with the router. For better Wi-Fi coverage within the home, please investigate using a mesh Wi-Fi network where several endpoints are deployed to provide the best Wi-Fi coverage.

A6: Call our support center at 1-800-327-5625 for additional help and product replacement if needed.
