• How do I register my Kryptonite keys?

  You can register your keys through the Key Safe program on the Kryptonite website. This allows you to request replacement keys if they are ever lost. Registration details are typically found under the Customer Service section online.

• What maintenance does my Kryptonite lock require?

  Lubricate the lock cylinder several times a year with a silicone, graphite, or Teflon-based lubricant. Do not use WD-40, as it is a solvent that will remove existing lubrication.

• What is the Anti-Theft Protection Offer (ATPO)?

  The ATPO is an optional program that reimburses registered customers for a specific amount if their bicycle or powersport vehicle is stolen due to the forceful opening or breaking of the lock. Registration is required within 30 days of purchase.

• Does Kryptonite manufacture truck parts?

  Yes, there is a separate brand known as Kryptonite Products that manufactures heavy-duty steering and suspension parts for trucks. Manuals for these products may also be found in this category.
