The advertisement on the internet fails to mention a couple of things:
1) The numbers in the combination can be entered in ANY ORDER, exponentially reducing the number of possible combinations. If you choose 2345, you could also open the lock if you push 5432, 3245, any other order of those digits, or if you push those 4 digits simultaneously.
2) The lock as purchased only allows you to choose up to 4 digits for your combination. You have to send away and pay more for the other 2 digits.

I purchased the Kaba Ilco LL1011-26D (with a left hand lever) on Amazon for 1/2 price that I could buy this locally. The product arrived at my pick up location in Niagara Falls, NY, two days after I ordered with the Super Saver free shipping option. This is a very heavy duty, high quality, industrial duty door lock. It is made in the USA.
Before installing the lock, I read the instructions cover to cover. I found the instructions to be clear and concise, and the lock was a breeze to install. You will need a 2 1/8" holesaw and a 1" holesaw to install.
The combination is easy to change following the instructions in the manual. There are five keys (1-5) on this door lock. For the combination, you can only press each key once, so the maximum combination is limited to five keystrokes. Also, to make it a bit more difficult to figure out the combination, it is possible to program a combination where you press two keys at the same time.
Be careful when ordering. The photo of the left hand lever door lock and the right hand lever door lock are identical on Amazon.com. The photo that is shown for the Kaba Ilco LR1011-26D right hand lever (above) is incorrect. The photo actually depicts the left hand lever version. There is no explanation of this in either description. I had to spend some time researching this online before I ordered mine. Everything turned out OK, but I was still a little apprehensive that I might have to return the lock until I actually opened the box and saw that it was the correct one. My recommendation is that the vendor take an actual photo of the product they are selling rather than using this generic photo. This would definitely eliminate any possible confusion.
Based on my internet research, I learned that my door is considered to be a "right hand" door (ie. the door handle is on the right hand side of the door when the door is pulled open toward me), however, it takes a "left hand" lever door lock - a little bit confusing for a novice like me.
Other than the potential "left hand" vs. "right hand" lever confusion, I am very happy with this purchase on Amazon.com.
