Kwikset 405DNL.SMC.15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Kwikset 405DNL SMC Dorian lever fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or does it need a 1-3/4 inch door?
Either one. The Dorian 405DNL SMC keyed entry lever covers doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, and the backset adjusts between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, so it drops into standard residential bores prepped at either backset.
2) Does the Dorian 405DNL SMC keyed lever need to be ordered left or right hand?
No handing to specify. The Dorian lever is fully reversible, so the same unit installs on a left or right hand door. That also means one part number covers every opening in a building instead of stocking two.
3) What is the difference between the Kwikset 405DNL SMC and the 405DNL SMT version?
Keyway. The SMC ships keyed to the SC1 (Schlage C) keyway, while the SMT is the Kwikset KW1 keyway version of the same Dorian keyed entry lever. SmartKey Security lets you re-key it yourself in seconds, and the technology supports either KW1 or SC1. If the building is already on Schlage-cut keys, the SMC is the one that will key into that system.
4) Is this Kwikset lever rated for a commercial building or a fire door?
The Dorian 405DNL SMC is an ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 residential lockset, with an optional UL 1/3 hour fire rating available across the Dorian functions. For a commercial corridor or a labeled opening where Grade 1 or Grade 2 is specified, look at a heavy duty cylindrical lock instead, such as the Falcon T101 Grade 1 or the Hager 2525 Grade 2 entrance lever.
5) Can I order a batch of these Dorian levers all on one key?
Yes. Keying is selected at order time as either Keyed Different or Keyed Alike, and there is an optional key code field if you need them cut to an existing code for the property. Keyed Alike is what you want when several doors in a unit or building should open with the same key. Each lock comes with 2 keys.
6) What is the closest Grade 3 keyed entry lever to the Kwikset 405DNL SMC Dorian?
The Master Lock BC Series RL01 return style lever is a Grade 3 keyed entry lockset, matching the 405DNL SMC Dorian on both ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 and entrance function. The Callan Artino 360201 and Callan Bennett BN3001R are also Grade 3 entrance leversets, with the Bennett supplied as an entrance lever and deadbolt combination. The Kwikset keeps SmartKey re-key technology and Microban antimicrobial protection, which those peers are not described with.
7) I need a keyed entry lever for a commercial corridor with heavy traffic - is the Kwikset Dorian 405DNL SMC the right choice?
The 405DNL SMC Dorian is a Grade 3 residential-rated entry/office leverset. For heavier commercial traffic, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium-duty cylindrical lever with entry/office function. If the opening calls for Grade 1, the Dexter C1000 series offers keyed cylindrical levers in classroom and classroom security functions.
8) What should I use instead of the Kwikset 405DNL SMC on a storeroom door that must stay locked?
The 405DNL SMC Dorian is an entry/office function, so the lever unlocks from the inside turn button and can be left unlocked. For a door that stays locked at all times with the outside lever always requiring a key, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
9) Can a Schlage C keyway entrance lever replace the Kwikset 405DNL SMC if the building is keyed to Schlage?
The 405DNL SMC Dorian uses the SmartKey Security cylinder, re-keyable by the owner and offered in KW1 or SC1 keyway options. If you want a conventional Schlage C cylinder instead, the Cal-Royal AG00 is an entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever in the AG series uses the same 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset. Those take standard Schlage C keys rather than SmartKey re-keying.
10) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Kwikset 405DNL SMC Dorian fit, and what else works?
The 405DNL SMC Dorian covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch door thickness with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. For a 2 inch door, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers are each listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Hager 2525 Grade 2 entry lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon K101 goes to 2-1/4 inch but is a passage function rather than keyed.
11) How does the Dorian 405DNL entry lever lock and unlock?
Single cylinder entry/office function: key from the outside, turn button on the inside. Turning the interior button locks both levers; the outside key releases it. It's the standard front-door or office-door arrangement, not a classroom or storeroom lock that stays locked outside at all times.
12) I need a lever on a closet or hall door to match this entry lock. What do I use?
Stay in the Dorian family: the 200DNL is the passage lever for halls and closets, the 300DNL is the privacy lever for a bath or bedroom, and the 488DNL is a half dummy for a non-latching door. Same Dorian lever design as the 405DNL SMC keyed entry, so the look carries across the openings.
13) Is there a Grade 3 entry lever from another brand that does the same job as this Kwikset Dorian?
A few. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever that covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range, the Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry return-style lever, and the Callan Artino 360201 is a Grade 3 entrance leverset. None of those carry SmartKey, so if re-keying the lock yourself or matching an SC1 system without a locksmith matters, the Kwikset 405DNL SMC is the one that does it.
14) Does this Kwikset lever include a deadbolt?
No. The 405DNL SMC is the keyed lever only, single cylinder, with the latch and strike. If the opening needs a deadbolt as well, the Callan Bennett BN3001R is a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied as a deadbolt combo.
15) Is there a cheaper non-keyed lever that matches the Kwikset Dorian on a closet or hall door?
For an opening that does not need a key, the Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset, the same grade as the 405DNL SMC Dorian. Grade 2 passage options include the Bravura Atlanta BV333002, Bravura Orlando BV333602, and the Hager 2510 Withnell passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. None of those are keyed, so you lose the SmartKey cylinder and the interior turn button the Dorian entry lock uses.
16) Which levers look like substitutes for the Kwikset 405DNL SMC Dorian but will not lock a door?
Dummy and passage levers share the same rose and lever appearance but have no cylinder and no latch security. The Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy, the BEST 9K Series 1DT and BEST 7KC 1DT are single dummy trims, the Baldwin Estate 5103 comes in left and right hand half dummy versions, and the Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy. The 405DNL SMC Dorian is a keyed single cylinder entry lock, so none of those substitute for it on an exterior or secured opening.
17) What is an alternative to the Kwikset 405DNL SMC Dorian if I do not want to issue keys at all?
The Dorian 405DNL SMC is key operated with a SmartKey cylinder and two keys supplied. For keyless access on a lever, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, the Lockey 2835DC adds double combination, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock if you want an electronic code instead of a mechanical one.
18) Is there a Grade 3 entrance lever with a forged brass body I can use in place of the Kwikset Dorian?
The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever lock with a solid brass forged body, rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the same thickness range and the same entry/office function as the 405DNL SMC Dorian. The Kwikset side keeps the SmartKey re-keyable cylinder and reversible lever for right or left hand doors.
19) For a bedroom or bathroom door, should I order the Kwikset 405DNL SMC Dorian or something else?
The 405DNL SMC Dorian is a keyed entry lock intended for exterior doors and main entrances, so a key is needed from the outside. A bath or bedroom door normally takes a privacy function instead: the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose, or the Arrow MK02-TA privacy cylindrical lock for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Those use an inside thumbturn with emergency release rather than a cylinder.
20) I want a keyed entry lock with a knob instead of a lever - what is the equivalent to the Kwikset 405DNL SMC?
The Arrow HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder, covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range and entrance function as the 405DNL SMC Dorian, which uses a lever handle. Note that lever operation is generally what ADA-driven specifications call for, so confirm the requirement for the opening before switching to a knob.
21) What finishes does the Kwikset 405DNL SMC Dorian lever come in?
Three: 605 Polished Brass, 510 Venetian Bronze, and 619 Satin Nickel. The rest of the Dorian collection (200DNL passage, 300DNL privacy, 488DNL half dummy) uses the same lever style, so you can match keyed and non-keyed openings across a unit.
22) Is the Microban coating on the Kwikset Dorian lever worth anything for a multi-family or healthcare property?
The Dorian 405DNL SMC carries Microban antimicrobial product protection built into the hardware surface, which Kwikset states keeps the hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. It is a surface-cleanliness feature on high-touch trim, not a substitute for cleaning protocol, and it does not change the lock's Grade 3 residential duty rating.
