Customers say
Customers like the appearance, functionality, and value of the lock. They mention it looks fantastic, works well, and is inexpensive. Some also like the fit. However, some customers have reported that the product is cheaply made and not heavy-duty. They also mention the key doesn’t operate the door latch lock and the knobs on the shank are hard to operate.
