The '''Titan''' is a [[pin-tumbler]] lock made by [[Kwikset]]. It is a modified version of the [[Kwikset Classic]] that uses six pins instead of five, and has a slightly different key to accommodate this. The KW10 keyway used by the Titan is nearly identical to the KW1 keyway; but it has an additional slot at the top, allowing for the insertion of the longer KW10 key.

The Titan is slowly being phased out(?) by the [[Kwikset SmartKey]] due to concerns over [[key bumping]].

== Principles of operation ==

:''See also: [[Pin-tumbler#Principles_of_Operation|Pin-Tumbler (Principles of Operation)]]''

The Titan is a traditional pin-tumbler that uses six pin stacks. To open the lock, all pin stacks must be aligned at the [[shear line]] to allow the [[plug]] to rotate. There are six key pin heights and seven key cut depths with the use of [[Master keying|master pins]]. The Titan has a [[MACS]] of 4. Many Classic cylinders come with [[construction keying]] dimples on the plug.

The Titan uses the same Classic key pins that are slightly tapered on both ends. Neither Classic nor Titan cylinders make use of [[security pin]]s.

== Disassembly instructions ==

The Titan can be disassembled with standard pin-tumbler disassembly. The design of the pin-chamber casing facilitates quick disassembly and full rekeying.

{{Pin-tumbler standard disassembly}}

==== Removing cylinders from Kwikset knobs ====

# Using the Cylinder Removing Tool, rotate the round spindle until the tab lines up with the bolt stems.<ref>[http://www.kwikset.com/Libraries/Literature/Rekeying_Manual.sflb.ashx Kwikset Rekeying Manual]</ref>
# Slide the tool under the spring housing behind the spindle and push to release the retainer. Pull out the spindle without rotating it.
# Slide the tool into the empty spindle chamber, angling it to bypass the cover at the top of the hole. Push the tool all the way in and apply pressure until the cylinder is forced out of the front of the knob.

== Vulnerabilities ==

The Titan may be vulnerable to one or more of the following:

* [[Lockpicking]]
* [[Bumping]]
* [[Impressioning]]
* [[Decoding]]

'''Notes'''
* Though far less than on the classic, poor tolerances with the Titan allow [[tryout keys]] to work.
