[QUOTE="LaRue Medlin, post: 983513, member: 52676"] Bob, no experience with your problem. I just know these locks are crap. Schlage has discontinued making them also. HORRAY... The blue key had a different grove than the standard sc1 key. That's what helped it go into rekey position. As far as I know, it was never intended to be the actual "working" key. I don't have any but I do think it was a little larger in thickness. Not sure. Just did some more checking, A lot of locksmiths are blogging that the 1 st and or 2nd pins get caught an won't allow the key to go in. Others complain about the lock going into rekey mode while using the regular key. I've hated these things since day one. The Kwikset locks are still not the best made but I use them a lot more and 90+% of the installed are still working. The is a company that makes a commercial u-changit lock that works well but it's just a commercial mortise lock.
