Weiser, like Kwikset, offers a range of keyless door locks. The process to change the battery in a Weiser keyless door lock is generally similar across models, but there might be slight variations depending on the specific model you have. Here’s a general guideline on how to change the battery:

  1. Open the Door: Always start with the door open to prevent accidental lockouts.
  2. Locate the Interior Assembly: This is the part of the lock inside your door.
  3. Remove the Cover:
    • Most Weiser locks have a cover on the interior assembly that protects the battery compartment and internal mechanisms.
    • This cover might snap on and off or be secured with screws. If it’s the latter, you’ll need a screwdriver to remove the screws and cover.
  4. Access the Battery Compartment: Once the cover is removed, you should see the battery compartment. Depending on the model, it might use AA, AAA, or 9V batteries.
  5. Remove the Old Battery: Take out the old battery or batteries.
  6. Insert the New Battery:
    • Insert the new battery or batteries, ensuring you place them in the correct orientation by following the positive (+) and negative (-) signs.
    • For models using 9V batteries, connect the battery snap connectors properly.
  7. Reattach the Cover:
    • If the cover snaps on, press it back into place.
    • If it was secured with screws, replace the screws using the screwdriver.
  8. Test the Lock: After replacing the battery, always test the lock to ensure it’s functioning correctly. Enter your code on the keypad to ensure the lock engages and disengages properly.

If you’re unsure about any step or your lock seems different, refer to the user manual specific to your Weiser lock model. You can often find a digital version on the manufacturer’s website if you’ve misplaced the manual.
