This vintage Kwikset \"K\" Locksets Installation Kit was built for professional installers and locksmiths back when tools were meant to last decades, not job sites. Housed in its original black hard case with bold yellow branding, this set includes the specialized jigs, guides, and hardware tools required for proper lockset installation. The interior instruction panel is intact and still clearly illustrates correct usage - a rare bonus. Honest wear throughout tells the story of real trade use, not shelf display.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eITEM IDENTIFICATION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrand\/Maker: Kwikset\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eItem Type: Lockset Installation Tool Kit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModel\/Series: \"K\" Installation Kit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEra\/Year: Estimated 1970s-1980s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterials: Steel tools, metal jigs, hard composite case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColor: Black case with yellow lettering\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA (Kwikset era-appropriate)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncluded: Original case, multiple installation tools, instruction panel (see photos)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCONDITION STATEMENT\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsed, vintage condition.
