Kaba Ilco 220-53-41 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What keyway does the Ilco night latch cylinder use, and can I key it to my existing Kwikset keys?
It ships in KW1, the standard Kwikset keyway. If the rest of your building is on Kwikset KW1, a locksmith can key this latch into that system without swapping the cylinder. Running a different keyway (Schlage SC1, or a restricted system)? Order the less-cylinder version and drop in your own rim cylinder instead.
2) What's the difference between the hold back and no hold back Ilco night latch?
The standard night latch has a slide button that holds the bolt retracted, so you can leave the door on free passage during business hours and flip it back at close. The no hold back model deletes that button, the bolt throws every time the door shuts. Pick no hold back where you don't want staff or tenants defeating the lock during the day, pick the hold back version for a shop or office that needs the door open on a schedule. The no hold back version is offered less cylinders in a box pack.
3) Should I order the Ilco night latch with a cylinder or less cylinder?
Two ways to go. Box pack and clam shell pack come complete with the KW1 cylinder, which is what you want if you're keying to Kwikset or don't care what key it takes. The less cylinder options (box pack, and the no hold back box pack) come without one, for locksmiths and integrators fitting their own rim cylinder to match a building masterkey system or a restricted keyway. If you're a distributor stocking for counter sales, clam shell is the retail-facing pack.
4) How does the Ilco night latch operate from each side of the door?
Key outside, turn knob inside. There's no outside knob or lever, so it's an auxiliary lock, you add it above an existing lockset rather than using it as the primary latch on the opening. Egress is always by the inside turn knob, no key needed to get out.
5) Can I use a night latch instead of a deadbolt on a rental unit or storefront back door?
They solve different problems. A night latch mounts on the face of the door and latches by spring action every time the door closes, so it secures the opening without anyone remembering to throw anything. A deadbolt has to be deliberately thrown and requires boring the door edge and face. This Ilco is the surface-mounted route: 1-1/4 inch crossbore only, 2-3/8 inch backset, and it works on doors 1-1/4 to 2-1/4 inch. Where you need the bolt to resist a jack or a pry attack on an exterior entry, a night latch is a supplement to a deadbolt, not a replacement.
6) Is the Ilco night latch handed, and what finish does it come in?
No handing to specify. The latch is surface applied with a rim strike, so it works on a left or right hand door without ordering differently, which is why it's an easy fleet item for a property manager stocking a few for turnovers. Finish is painted brass across the packs.
7) Is the Kaba Ilco night latch rated for commercial use?
It's a commercial-rated auxiliary lock. Ilco positions it as the economical end of the range, so it suits multi-family unit doors, back-of-house doors, storage rooms and light-traffic commercial entries rather than a high-cycle main entrance. For a main door on heavy public traffic, put the cycle load on a Grade 1 mortise or cylindrical lockset and use the night latch as the secondary.
