Yes, the striking plate is included.
Does anyone know the distinction between these locks’Â
The Kwikset lock’s basic design is called Tylo. Juno has a more rounded shape.
Does this include the inner pack as well or is this just the external pack?
It has a deadbolt lock and inside knob that match.
Is Kwikset Smart Key Lock installing this simple?
This is fairly simple to install if the new door has pre-drilled holes or if you are switching out an existing lock set. There are a tonne of YouTube videos that demonstrate installation as well.
Should the $30 set include one door lock or two?
Absolutely, at that cost. Two-piece door sets are required. It’s wonderful that you can switch out the key for a new key without going to a key store for new ones because I found it to be really helpful when they could use the same key for both.
