I want to purchase this for a new pedestrian gate made of iron. do i need the other part (gb2020 gate lock box steel gate box - for double keypad)?

If your gate does not have a Standard boar hole or plate to mount to, we highly recommended using the JounJip GB2020 Gate box for this lockset. It will need to be welded onto the gate. It comes unfinished so you will need to brush, seal, and paint the box to prevent corrosion or rust.

How do you keep someone from simpliy uncrewing it to gain entry?

Some customers add mesh or steel plates to their gate to prevent people from easily reaching around with a screwdriver and unscrewing. Also, there are putties that can be put inside to prevent easy access. Just know in case you have to service the lock or change the code, you will need to access those screws.

We installed ours but ppl can still get in by pushing in where it latches, doesn't lock automatically. Did we do something wrong?

That locking mechanism or should I say the strike bolt, has a little half round type bolt on the back side of the main angled portion of the strike where it is supposed to close into the latch plate. You must make sure that that little half round bolt on the backside of the strike is fully depressed when it is closed in the door. Otherwise somebody can just throw a credit card, for a little butter knife or just about any flat piece of anything in there and pop the door open. So you need to adjust the strike plate so that when you close the door it depresses the little half round bolt on the back of the tapered strike that latches the door closed. The problem is most people don't take that into consideration when mounting any lock on a door. If you don't depress the safety lock mechanism within the strike bolt it will be able to be opened easily. It is kind of a tight adjustment but if you get it right And the little half bolt in the back side of the strike depresses and stays depressed when the door is closed the door cannot be opened easily. If you look at the instructions you will see that it states that the safety latch needs to stay depressed when the door is closed. Sometimes it requires that the strike plate be adjusted back slightly to tighten up the latching mechanism or there's also a bendable tab on the strike plate itself that can be manipulated with a pair of pliers so that when the door closes the little half bolt stays depressed.

Can this product installed in existing Kwikset deadbolt cutouts without modification?

You will need to check the dimensions of your Kwikset. The keypad for the JOUNJIP Lever lock is 5 9/16" inch long by 1 5/8" inch wide. If your door has the standard boar hole, the only possible modification you will need to make is drilling a hole for the top screw. This lever lock does not have a deadbolt option. It is a latch-style lock as shown in the picture. If you have further questions you can contact us at help@madorganizer.com
