Key Lock Function for 82-080 Handle Set?

Question

The operator on the internal handle has broken. We cannot lock the door from the inside (still able to lock exterior with a key). Will we be able to use our current external key with this handle? If not, can we order this handle with an exterior key lock that will accept a Kwikset cylinder?

As long as your original handle is the same as the 82-080, then you should probably be able to use your old key lock. If you want to just play it safe, though, then consider our 82-081 instead. This is the same thing but comes with a key lock already.
