Baldwin locks are very solid. Personally, I'd keep it. You could always get it rekeyed if that's the issue.

Yeah i think breaking eufy smart lock is not that hard. The outer plastic will break with a hammer.

The old lock was getting stuck and was hard to open with key

Ah. Yes, they will do that, but they should be easy to clean and lubricate. Something like WD40 should help. It may be very simple if you have the cover plates off.

Looks like i could have replaced the deadbolt keeping the rest of the assembly. But lets see if smart locks provides more convinience
