Kwikset 1000-26D-FD-4L-STRKP-KS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset 1000 Unite deadbolt fit my existing door prep, or do I have to re-drill?
The 1000 Unite drops into a standard prep. The latch is adjustable between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backset, so it covers both common bore locations without a new hole, and the cross bore is the standard 2-1/8 inch. Door thickness range is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, which covers standard commercial 1-3/4 doors and older 1-3/8 interior doors. Install is screwdriver only.
2) Can I reuse the strike that is already in my door frame with a Kwikset 1000 Unite?
Usually yes. The 1000 Unite ships with both round corner and square corner strikes, so it matches either frame prep, and the latch has two interchangeable faceplates (round corner and square corner) for the door edge. Deadbolt throw is 1 inch, so the strike pocket has to be deep enough to take a full inch of bolt.
3) How many resident codes can a Kwikset Unite 1000 multifamily deadbolt hold?
Up to 500 user codes. That is what makes it workable on a multifamily building or an amenity door with turnover, rather than a single-household lock where you only need a handful. It runs on 4 AA batteries, included with the lock.
4) Is there a key override on the Kwikset 1000 Unite, or is it code only?
Code entry outside, manual thumbturn inside. The 1000 Unite is an electronic x manual thumbturn deadbolt with no keyed cylinder, so there is no brass key backup on the exterior. If your building policy requires a mechanical key override on an electronic deadbolt, the Codelocks CL200 surface deadbolt is a keyed-override option we carry.
5) Does the Kwikset 1000 Unite meet ADA and carry a fire rating?
It meets ADA/ANSI A117.1 requirements, is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certified, and the latch carries a 90-minute UL rating. Kwikset states it meets or exceeds UL testing requirements for its grade. Note it is classified as residential duty, so for a heavy-traffic commercial opening a Grade 1 deadbolt such as the Cal-Royal CRB800 with its UL 3-hour fire rated latch is the heavier option.
6) I am replacing a mechanical Grade 2 deadbolt on apartment doors with an electronic one. Will the Kwikset 1000 Unite go in the same holes?
In most cases yes. A standard Grade 2 tubular deadbolt like the Arrow DBX61 or the Dexter DB2000 uses the same 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset the 1000 Unite's adjustable latch covers, and the Dexter DB2000 shares the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. What changes is the door face: an electronic escutcheon is larger than a round rose, so check clearance to the door edge and to any glass or lite frame before you swap.
7) The door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. What deadbolt fits instead?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite is built for doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a thicker leaf, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Deltana 7312KA2 is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Both are keyed mechanical deadbolts, so the opening gives up code entry in exchange for the thickness range.
8) What is the closest keypad deadbolt to the Kwikset 1000 Unite for a multifamily door?
The Delaney KP400 is the nearest electronic peer: it is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote. The Kwikset 1000 Unite is also ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certified, stores up to 500 user codes, and runs on 4 AA batteries that ship with the lock. Both are code-driven deadbolts rather than cylinder-and-key hardware, so a property manager rekeying by code rather than by pinning can move between them without changing the door prep.
9) Which electronic deadbolt should I use for a hotel or student housing property with RFID credentials instead of keypad codes?
The Dormakaba Nova-D is an RFID multihousing smart electronic deadbolt, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and Electronic Lock Override. Both read a credential card or phone rather than a typed code. The Kwikset 1000 Unite works from a stored code set of up to 500 codes with a manual thumbturn on the inside, so it fits properties that issue codes to residents rather than cards to guests.
10) What is a simpler mechanical alternative if the unit does not need electronic access?
For the same opening without electronics, the Dexter DB2000-SCT is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Arrow DBX61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn function. The Kwikset 1000 Unite covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range and is also Grade 2 with an interior turn piece, so a mechanical swap lands on the same door prep and the same grade, keyed rather than coded.
11) I need a heavier duty deadbolt than the Kwikset 1000 Unite for a commercial corridor door. What steps up?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certified and its data lists it as residential. Where a Grade 1 deadbolt is called for, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty deadbolt with an adjustable backset, and the Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three are keyed mechanical locks rather than code-entry hardware.
12) My door has no cross bore. Is there an electronic deadbolt that mounts on the surface?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore in the door face. Where boring the door is not an option, the Codelocks CL2200 is an electronic surface deadbolt in a medium duty rating with a brushed steel finish, and the Codelocks CL200 is a mechanical surface deadbolt with key override in a light duty rating. Surface hardware mounts to the face of the door rather than through a bored hole.
13) Is the Codelocks CL2210 electronic mortise deadbolt a drop-in substitute for the Kwikset 1000 Unite?
No. The CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt, which requires a mortise pocket cut into the edge of the door. The Kwikset 1000 Unite installs through a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a latch adjustable from 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset. Both are code-entry deadbolts, but the door prep is not the same and one will not go into the other's opening without new machining.
14) What deadbolt has a fire rating stated for the opening?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite carries a 90-minute UL rating. Among mechanical peers with a fire rating stated, the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder, and the Cal-Royal CRB800 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch. The 1000 Unite also throws 1 inch, matching the 3215 on bolt projection.
15) What other electronic deadbolts should I look at instead of the Kwikset Unite for a multifamily property?
Depends on how you want residents to get in. The Unite is a keypad code lock with 500 codes. If you want RFID credentials on multihousing doors, the Dormakaba Nova-D and the Saffire LX-D (RFID with BLE and electronic lock override) are the credential-based options. The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote. For surface-mounted electronic on a door you do not want to bore, the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty surface deadbolt and the CL2210 is a mortise version.
16) Is the Kwikset 1000 Unite handed? Do I need to know which way the door swings?
No handing to specify. It is a tubular deadbolt with a keypad outside and a thumbturn inside, so it installs the same on a left hand or right hand door. What you do need to check is the backset in your existing bore and the door thickness, since the latch adjusts 2-3/8 to 2-3/4 inches and the lock covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
17) Can the Kwikset 1000 Unite be the only lock on an apartment entry door, or do I need a latch too?
It is a deadbolt only, no latching function, so it will not hold the door closed. Pair it with a passage or entry knob or lever on the same door. If you would rather have both functions in one unit, the Falcon H2101 is an interconnected entry lock with a single cylinder deadbolt built in, though that one is mechanical rather than electronic.
18) Will the DynaLock 1300 electric deadbolt do the same job as the Kwikset 1000 Unite?
They solve different problems. The DynaLock 1300 Series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt, meaning it is thrown and retracted by an access control system wired to the frame or door. The Kwikset 1000 Unite is a standalone battery unit running on 4 AA batteries with codes entered at the door and a manual thumbturn inside. If there is no access control head end and no power to the opening, the 1300 is not a substitute.
19) I need a deadbolt that can be locked and unlocked by key from both sides. What replaces the Kwikset 1000 Unite?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite has a manual thumbturn on the interior, so the inside always releases without a key. For key-both-sides openings, the Dexter DB2000-DCT is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway for the same thickness range, and the Delaney LU Series 320601 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt in stainless steel US32D. Confirm local egress code before specifying double cylinder on a dwelling unit.
20) Which deadbolt should I use where the facility standardizes on interchangeable cores?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite is a code-entry lock rather than an SFIC-cored one. For a keying program built on cores, the Arrow E61 26D IC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep less core covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 interchangeable core deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Delaney LM Series 301702 is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome US26D. Each accepts the core your facility already pins.
21) What mechanical deadbolt also has an adjustable backset so it drops into either standard prep?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite latch adjusts from 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset. Mechanical peers with the same flexibility include the Cal-Royal ED500, a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with adjustable backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon D111 Grade 1 deadbolt with adjustable backset, and the Brinks Raleigh E2401, a single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset. Fixed-backset options such as the Accentra D111 at 2-3/8 inch and the Deltana CL200LA at 2-3/4 inch must be ordered to match the hole already in the door.
22) Is a mortise deadbolt like the Dormakaba D900 the same thing as the Kwikset 1000 Unite?
No. The Dormakaba D900 is a small case mortise dead bolt in cylinder x thumbturn function, keyed different with SC keyways, and it seats in a mortise pocket in the door edge. The Kwikset 1000 Unite is a bored deadbolt using a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 4-way adjustable latch and both round corner and square corner strikes supplied. A door prepped for one is not prepped for the other.
23) Do I need a deadbolt or an interconnected lock for a unit entry door?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite is a deadbolt only, so it pairs with a separate knob or lever for latching. Where a single device should handle both, the Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt, combining bolt and latch in one trim. If the door already has a working passage or entry set in the lower bore, the 1000 Unite goes in above it.
24) What is the difference between the Kwikset 1000 Unite and the Arrow E60 exit deadlock?
The Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock in blank plate x thumbturn function for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, meaning there is no outside operation at all. The Kwikset 1000 Unite covers the same door thickness range but takes credentials on the outside from a code set of up to 500. Use the E60 where the door must never be opened from outside, and the 1000 Unite where residents or staff need to get in.
25) What finishes does the Kwikset 1000 Unite deadbolt come in?
Four: Satin Nickel, Polished Chrome, Satin Chrome, and Black. If you are standardizing a building, pick one finish and stay with it across the openings, since the same lock is what you will be ordering again for turnover.
26) Do the Kwikset Unite deadbolt's touch surfaces have any antimicrobial treatment for a shared entry?
Yes, Microban antimicrobial protection is built into the hardware, which Kwikset states keeps the surface 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. Relevant on shared multifamily doors, amenity rooms, and common corridors where the keypad gets touched all day.
27) I want a deadbolt with square trim to match the rest of the doors. What are the options?
The Kwikset 1000 Unite uses a round rose. For a square-trim program, the Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn, the Brinks Mendocino E2402 is a contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset, and the Baldwin Reserve DC.CSD is a double cylinder contemporary square deadbolt. Round-trim counterparts include the Bravura 310RC Elite and the Baldwin Reserve DC.CRD.
28) The Kwikset 1000 Unite comes in Satin Nickel, Polished Chrome, Satin Chrome and Black. What if I need a bronze or brass deadbolt to match existing trim?
For warmer finishes on a deadbolt, the Emtek #11 Tuscany is a lost wax cast bronze deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn function, and the Emtek 8323 Modern Disc is a brass double cylinder deadbolt. Both are mechanical keyed hardware rather than code entry, so a mixed property can run the Kwikset on the units and a matching decorative bolt on the front-of-house doors.
