Kwikset 405DL-26DSMC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Kwikset 405DL Delta lever handed, or can I use it on either swing?
Fully reversible. The Delta lever installs on right hand and left hand doors without any parts change, so you order one part number regardless of swing. For a property manager stocking a few spares across a building, that means one SKU covers every opening.
2) Can I key the Kwikset 405DL SmartKey lever to the Schlage keys already on my building?
No. The 405DL SMC uses the SC1 keyway on a SmartKey cylinder, and SC1 is the Schlage residential 5-pin keyway, not the 6-pin Schlage C commercial keyway. If your other doors are already on SC1 keys, the SmartKey cylinder can be rekeyed to that key yourself with the learn tool, no disassembly. If your building runs Schlage C commercial cylinders, look at a lever built for that keyway instead, such as the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C cylinder.
3) How does the 405DL Delta lever lock and unlock, and does the outside lever stay locked?
Entry/office function, single cylinder. You lock and unlock from inside with a turn button on the interior lever, or from outside with the key. Once locked, the outside lever stays locked until the key or the inside turn button releases it, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for egress. That is the right function for a main entry or an office door, not for a classroom or a storeroom where the outside lever must stay locked at all times.
4) Is the Kwikset 405DL Delta lever heavy duty enough for a commercial or high traffic door?
It is a Grade 3 residential lockset, which is the light duty tier. For an apartment unit door, a rental house, or a low traffic office it is fine. For a commercial entrance, a school, or a corridor door taking constant use, step up to a Grade 2 or Grade 1 cylindrical lever such as the Hager 2525 Grade 2 commercial entry lever or the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 entry/office lever, both of which also cover 1-3/8 to 2 inch and 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors respectively.
5) What do I have to specify when ordering the Kwikset 405DL SMC Delta keyed lever?
Two choices. Finish: 619 satin nickel or 626 satin chrome. And keying: keyed different if each lock gets its own key, or keyed alike if you want a run of them opening on one key, which is what most landlords want for a unit's front and back door. There is an optional field for a specific key code if you are matching an existing SC1 key already in service.
6) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Kwikset 405DL Delta keyed entry lever?
The Master Lock BC Series RL01 return style lever is the nearest like-for-like: it is a Grade 3 keyed entry lockset, matching the 405DL Delta's Grade 3 rating and Entry/Office lock function. Both are keyed lever sets for a main entry door. The difference is the cylinder platform - the 405DL Delta carries SmartKey Security on an SC1 keyway, which lets the owner rekey the lock themselves without pulling the cylinder; the Master Lock RL01 does not carry that feature. If the requirement is simply a keyed entry lever at Grade 3, the RL01 covers it; if the property is being rekeyed between tenants, the SmartKey cylinder is the reason to stay with the 405DL.
7) What should I use instead of the Kwikset 405DL Delta lever on a commercial corridor or high-traffic opening?
The 405DL Delta is a Grade 3 residential lever. For a commercial opening that sees continuous traffic, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical lever with the same entry function - the Dexter C1000 Series entry/office lever is Grade 1 with a clutching, keyed entry/office function and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same thickness range the 405DL Delta covers. Falcon's B511CP6D is a middle step: Grade 2, medium duty, entry/office function. All three lock and unlock the outside lever for keyed entry; the difference is the cycle and strength rating behind the trim.
8) Is the Cal-Royal AUS00 a substitute for the Kwikset 405DL Delta lever?
They match on the two specs a buyer checks first: the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Kwikset 405DL Delta is Grade 3 with an Entry/Office function over that same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range. The AUS00 has a solid brass forged body. Where they part company is keying: the 405DL Delta runs SmartKey Security on an SC1 keyway, while the AUS00 is a different cylinder platform, so the two will not key alike to each other on the same building master.
9) For a storage room where the outside lever must stay locked at all times, what takes the place of the 405DL Delta?
The 405DL Delta is an entry function - the inside turn button leaves it to the occupant whether the outside lever is locked, which is wrong for a store room that must never be left open. A storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked permanently and retracts the latch by key only. The Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
10) Which keyed entry lever fits a door thicker than the 405DL Delta will take?
The 405DL Delta covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. On a thicker leaf, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Deltana's entry levers also run 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch across the Manchester 6201, Morant 6411 and Linstead 6431. If the opening is a 2-1/4 inch door in a passage application rather than keyed entry, the Falcon K101 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Measure the leaf before ordering, since the through-bolt length is what sets this limit.
11) I need a keyed entry lever on a Schlage C keyway to match the rest of the building - what are my options?
The 405DL Delta runs SmartKey Security on an SC1 keyway. If the building is keyed on 6-pin Schlage C and the new lock has to fall onto that system, the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever on a 6-pin Schlage C keyway, keyed different, with a 2-3/8 inch backset, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For the same keyway in a classroom function, the Cal-Royal AG03 is the 2-3/4 inch backset version. Confirm the backset at the door before ordering, since those two are fixed at different backsets while the 405DL Delta latch adjusts between 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch.
12) Will the Kwikset Delta lever drop into the strike already cut into my frame?
It ships with a 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike. If your frame has a square corner strike cut, you will need to either swap the frame prep or reuse your existing strike. The latch itself comes with two interchangeable faceplates, round corner and square corner, so the door edge prep is covered either way.
13) Can I rekey the Kwikset 405DL SmartKey lever myself instead of calling a locksmith?
That is the point of SmartKey. The cylinder is rekeyed in place with the learn tool and the current key, so when a tenant moves out you rekey the unit in under a minute without pulling the lock off the door or ordering new pinning. Across a portfolio that removes the recurring locksmith visit on turnover.
14) Is the Kwikset Delta lever set approved for a fire rated door?
A UL 1/3 hour fire rating is available as an option across the Delta functions rather than being standard on every lock. If the opening is a rated door, specify the UL version. Within the Delta family the 409DL keyed entry lever is the UL listed counterpart to the 405DL.
15) Should I use a keyed entry lever or a privacy or passage lever on this door?
Pick by what the door has to do. Keyed entry, which is what the 405DL Delta is, secures a door to the outside with a key and an inside turn button. A bedroom or bathroom door only needs privacy, a push button with an emergency release and no key. A closet or hallway door needs passage, which just latches and never locks. In the Delta family the 300DL is the privacy lever and the 420DL is the passage version, so you can hold one lever style across a whole house and only change the function.
16) Is there a Grade 3 entry lever alternative to the Kwikset 405DL Delta from another brand?
Two same-grade options. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body, covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range as the Delta. The Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 return style keyed entry lever. Neither carries SmartKey, so if do-it-yourself rekeying on turnover is what you are buying, the Kwikset is the one that does it.
17) I want a keyed lever on a closet or hallway door - is the 405DL Delta the right lock?
No. The 405DL Delta is keyed with an Entry/Office function, which means it locks. A hall or closet door that only needs to latch takes a passage lever, which has no key and no locking mechanism: the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in a satin nickel finish, and the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando are Grade 2 round trim passage leversets. For a commercial hall door, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed passage lever. Choosing passage where entry is not needed also removes the keying decision from the order.
18) What replaces the 405DL Delta on a classroom door where the teacher should not be able to lock people out?
An entry function like the 405DL Delta locks from the inside turn button, which is not what a classroom opening calls for. A classroom function locks and unlocks the outside lever by key only, with the inside lever always free. The Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever on a 6-pin Schlage C keyway, keyed different, with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Dexter C1000 Series classroom lever is Grade 1, clutching and keyed, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the C1000 classroom security version adds key control of the inside lever as well.
19) If I want keyless entry instead of a keyed lever, what do I use in place of the 405DL Delta?
The 405DL Delta is a keyed single cylinder lever on an SC1 SmartKey cylinder. To get rid of keys entirely, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and the Emtek Classic Keypad Leverset is a code-entry lever in the Classic trim family. For a mechanical pushbutton with no batteries and no wiring, the Lockey 2835 is a keyless pushbutton lever with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 heavy duty keypad lever set covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. Note the Lockey units listed here are passage function, so they latch and unlatch by code rather than holding a locked outside lever the way a keyed entry set does.
20) Does the Baldwin Estate 5103 lever work as a replacement for a Kwikset 405DL Delta keyed entry?
Not directly, because the Estate 5103 is not sold in a keyed entry version among the peers here. The Baldwin Estate 5103 comes as a passage lever, a privacy lever, and left hand and right hand half dummy levers, all on the 5048 rose. The 405DL Delta is keyed entry with a single cylinder, so the 5103 privacy version locks with a thumbturn and no key, and the dummy versions do not operate a latch at all. Note also that the 5103 half dummies are handed left and right, while the 405DL Delta lever is fully reversible and installs on either hand.
21) Is a knob lockset an acceptable alternative to the 405DL Delta lever?
Mechanically yes for the same function, but the trim is the deciding factor. The Arrow HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same thickness range the 405DL Delta covers, and it locks the same way - a turn button inside, key outside. The difference is the handle: the 405DL Delta is a lever, which is what ADA-governed openings and anyone carrying a load through the door will want, while the Arrow HK11-BB is a knob.
22) What is the difference between the Kwikset 405DL Delta and the Callan Artino or Callan Bennett entrance levers?
All three are Grade 3 entrance levers. The Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset and the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied as a combo with a deadbolt, which is the one to look at if the opening needs a second point of security on the same key. The Kwikset 405DL Delta is the lever alone, keyed single cylinder on SmartKey, with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike in the box.
23) What lever should I use on a fire rated opening instead of the 405DL Delta?
The 405DL Delta Delta series offers an optional UL 1/3 hour fire rating across its functions, so specify that option if the opening is rated. Among the peers, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever carrying a fire rating for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with a fire rating covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both of those are passage function, so they suit a rated corridor door that does not need to lock rather than a keyed entry.
24) For a utility or institutional room, is the 405DL Delta the right function or do I need something else?
An entry function lets whoever is inside decide whether the door is locked, which is not how a utility or patient room is meant to run. An asylum or institution function is keyed on both sides with no free-turning lever: the Dexter C1000 Series asylum lock is Grade 1 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum lock with a ball knob on a conventional Schlage C keyway cylinder. Both are a step up in grade from the Grade 3 405DL Delta.
25) What is the difference between the Kwikset 405DL and the 406DL Delta keyed lever?
Both are keyed entry Delta levers. The 405DL locks and unlocks the outside lever from a turn button on the inside lever. The 406DL is the free interior version, meaning the interior lever is always free and is not the piece carrying the lock control. If you want the tenant able to throw the lock from inside without a key, the 405DL is the one.
26) Will the Delta lever finish match the satin nickel hardware already on my other doors?
The Delta keyed entry lever comes in 619 satin nickel and 626 satin chrome. 619 is the warmer, slightly brushed tone that pairs with most residential satin nickel hinges and pulls; 626 satin chrome is cooler and is the more common finish on commercial hardware. Match to whichever code is already stamped on what is in the building rather than by eye.
27) What tools and prep do I need to install the Kwikset Delta keyed lever?
A screwdriver. The Delta lever installs into a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, which is what nearly every pre-drilled door already has, and the adjustable 2-3/8 to 2-3/4 inch backset means you do not have to know which bore spacing your door was drilled to before you order. Nothing else is required to finish the job on an existing prepped door.
28) Can I use a dummy lever to match the 405DL Delta on a door that does not latch?
A dummy lever is pull trim only - it does not retract a latch and takes no cylinder, so it never substitutes for the keyed 405DL Delta on an operating door, but it is the correct partner on an inactive leaf or a false door in the same run. The BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty equivalent, and the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. Emtek supplies dummy pairs in the Arts and Crafts and Hammered lever styles for double door openings.
