The Kwikset 96900-381 690T 15 SMT BBPKG Tylo Entry Combo Set in Satin Nickel is a complete door hardware solution designed for residential entrances. This set integrates a secure deadbolt and a keyed entry knob, both finished with a consistent satin nickel coating that resists tarnishing and everyday wear. The design follows a clean, transitional aesthetic that complements a wide range of architectural styles, from modern to traditional. Each component is engineered for straightforward installation on standard doors, reducing the need for professional assistance.

Craftsmanship is a central focus. The body is constructed from robust zinc alloy, while the internal mechanisms feature hardened steel components to withstand repeated use. The satin nickel finish is applied through a multi-step process that enhances corrosion resistance and maintains a smooth, matte appearance over time. The included latch and strike plates are precision‑aligned to ensure a snug fit, minimizing wobble and potential misalignment.

All moving parts are pre‑lubricated, allowing the knob and deadbolt to rotate and retract with consistent, low‑effort action. Functionality is anchored in security and convenience. The lock set incorporates a re‑keyable cylinder system, enabling homeowners to change the keying themselves without removing the lock from the door. This is especially useful when moving into a new home or updating access privileges.

The deadbolt features a tapered bolt design that self‑aligns during closing, reducing binding. The exterior knob includes a built‑in locking button that prevents unauthorized entry while still allowing emergency egress via the interior turn piece. Both the knob and deadbolt are ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 rated, indicating solid durability for daily residential use. The Satın Nickel Tylo Combo Set is intended for standard 2⅜” or 2¾” backset doors with a 1½” diameter bore.

It fits door thicknesses from 1⅜” to 2”. The satin finish resists fingerprints and smudges, making it a low‑maintenance option for busy households. Because this set is offered at a very affordable price point, it represents a strong value for those seeking reliable entry hardware without overspending. The combination of sturdy materials, user‑friendly re‑keying, and a timeless finish makes it a practical choice for both new installations and replacements.
