Kwikset 439CNL-26DS.LK.23155 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How does a storeroom function lever work day to day compared to an entry lever?
On the 439CNL Carson, the outside lever stays locked at all times and is retracted only with a key; the inside lever always turns free for egress. Locking is set by pressing the push button on the interior of the lock. That is the difference from an entry/office lever, where the outside lever can be left unlocked for the business day. Use storeroom on a supply room, mechanical room, or vestibule that should never be left open by accident.
2) Is the Kwikset Carson 439CNL handed, or will one lock do both left and right hand doors?
One part covers both. The Carson lever is reversible, so the same set installs on a right hand or left hand door without ordering a hand. For a property manager buying a dozen at once, that means no per-opening hand survey before the order goes in.
3) Can I rekey the Kwikset 439CNL myself, and does it take a Schlage key?
SmartKey Security lets you rekey the cylinder yourself in seconds with the learn tool and a new key, no cylinder removal and no pinning kit. It accepts either the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the SC1 (Schlage) keyway, so you can bring it onto an existing SC1 key system without swapping cylinders. That is the main reason maintenance departments standardize on it across a building.
4) Is the Kwikset 439CNL Carson lever heavy duty enough for a commercial storeroom with constant traffic?
It is an ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 lock, the residential-duty tier, and Kwikset positions the Carson as residential hardware. For a light-traffic storeroom in an apartment building or a small office it is a fair fit. For a high-cycle commercial opening, step up: the Hager 2580 Withnell storeroom lever is Grade 2 and fits 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG05 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt is Grade 2 over 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
5) Which lever looks like a substitute for the Kwikset 439CNL Carson storeroom lever but will not lock the door?
Passage and dummy levers share the same trim look but have no keyed function at all. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed cylindrical passage lever, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando are Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim. Dummy trim such as the BEST 7KC Series single dummy or the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy does not operate a latch at all. The Kwikset 439CNL Carson is keyed with a single cylinder in a storeroom/vestibule function, so none of these will secure the opening.
6) What is the difference between a storeroom lever like the Kwikset 439CNL Carson and a classroom lever?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson is a storeroom/vestibule function: the outside lever is locked by pressing the push button on the interior of the lock, and the key retracts the latch. A classroom function, such as the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway or the Grade 1 Dexter C1000 classroom lever, is locked and unlocked from the outside by key rather than from inside. The Dexter C1000 also comes in a classroom security version, which is keyed on both sides. Pick by who needs to change the lock state and from which side of the door.
7) What is the closest commercial equivalent to the Kwikset 439CNL Carson storeroom lever for a Grade 2 opening?
The Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Kwikset 439CNL Carson is a Grade 3 storeroom/vestibule lever that fits the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, so the door prep carries over. The Hager 2580 is also a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, which reaches thicker doors than the Carson does.
8) I need a Schlage C keyway storeroom lever, not SmartKey. What are my options?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson uses SmartKey Security, which re-keys to a Kwikset KW1 or Schlage SC1 keyway. If your building is keyed to a 6-pin Schlage C system, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever are both supplied with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different, and both are AG Series levers, so the AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever is the AG Series member that matches the storeroom function.
9) I need a fire rated lever for a storeroom door. Does the Kwikset 439CNL Carson qualify, and what else is rated?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson carries a fire rating and ships with a round corner full lip UL strike. Other fire rated cylindrical levers include the Grade 1 Falcon K101 passage lock, which fits 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Grade 1 Corbin Russwin CL3110 vandal resistant passage/closet lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Both of those are passage function, so on a fire rated storeroom opening the Carson is the one of the three that locks.
10) Will an adjustable backset lever other than the Kwikset 439CNL Carson fit a 2-3/4 inch backset prep?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson uses an adjustable latch set to either a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, so one part number covers both standard preps. Among the alternatives, the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever is supplied at a fixed 2-3/4 inch backset and the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever at a fixed 2-3/8 inch backset, so the backset has to be matched to the door at the time of order. The Lockey 1150 keypad lever set is also built with an adjustable backset.
11) Will the round corner latch on the Carson 439CNL fit my existing square corner door prep?
Not without work. The 439CNL comes with a round corner faceplate on the latch and a round corner full lip strike. If your door edge is mortised square corner and your frame carries a square corner strike, the round corner parts will sit in an oversize cutout and leave a gap. Round corner is the standard prep on factory-machined doors and hollow metal frames; square corner preps are common on older wood doors mortised in the field.
12) I have several Carson levers already on the doors. Will the 439CNL storeroom match them?
It will. The Carson collection runs the same lever and rose trim across functions, so the 439CNL storeroom sits beside the 407CNL passage, 408CNL privacy, 438CNL keyed entry, and 488CNL half dummy with identical trim. Match the finish and the doors read as one set: the 439CNL comes in Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, and Satin Chrome.
13) Does the Kwikset 439CNL SMT come with keys?
This configuration ships less keys and keyed alike to a common key group, so all the locks in the order operate on the same key. Order keys separately, or cut them yourself on the KW1 or SC1 keyway the SmartKey cylinder accepts. If you want a set that arrives with keys in the box, the 438CNL SMT keyed entry Carson is the sibling to look at.
14) What do I need to install a Kwikset Carson lever set, and does it need a deadbolt too?
A screwdriver is the only tool, and the set includes the adjustable latch and the strike, so a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door needs nothing else. It is a single cylinder keyed lock, not a lock and deadbolt combination. If the opening needs both, look at a lever with a matching deadbolt such as the Callan Bennett CLN-BN3001R entrance leverset with deadbolt combo.
15) I need a Grade 1 storeroom lever for a hospital or school corridor, not a Grade 3. What should I look at instead?
Grade 3 residential hardware is the wrong tier for an institutional corridor. From the heavy duty cylindrical levers we carry, the Dexter C1000 Series is Grade 1 and runs classroom, classroom security, entry/office, and asylum functions across 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors (asylum to 2 inches). The Falcon K Series K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty and fits 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors with a fire rating. Corbin Russwin's CL3100 Series is Grade 1 vandal resistant and fire rated for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
16) Is a Grade 1 lever available for a high traffic storeroom door instead of a Grade 3 Kwikset Carson?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson is ANSI/BHMA Grade 3. For heavier traffic on a keyed opening, the Dexter C1000 Series is Grade 1 and comes in an entry/office function and a classroom function, both clutching and keyed, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door range the Carson covers. The Dexter C1000 asylum version is Grade 1 and reaches 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Note that these are different lock functions than the Carson's storeroom/vestibule function, so confirm which behavior the opening needs before ordering.
17) What Grade 3 keyed lever can I pair with the Kwikset 439CNL Carson on doors that only need entry function?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson is a Grade 3 keyed lever in storeroom/vestibule function, where the outside lever stays locked. For openings on the same run that need an entry lever instead, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset, and the Master Lock RL Series is a Grade 3 return style keyed entry lockset. All sit at the same Grade 3 level as the Carson.
18) The Kwikset 439CNL Carson is reversible. Do I have to order handing on the alternatives?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson lever is reversible and installs on right and left hand doors from one part number. Among the alternatives, the Falcon B101 and Falcon K101 are non-handed cylindrical levers, so handing does not have to be specified either. Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy trim is the exception: it is ordered as a distinct left hand or right hand part, so the door swing has to be confirmed before you place that order.
19) What is the heavy duty commercial alternative to the Kwikset Carson lever line for an institutional utility room?
The Kwikset 439CNL Carson is a Grade 3 residential lever in storeroom/vestibule function. For an institutional utility opening, the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty asylum/institution/utility lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder in a Schlage C keyway, and the Dexter C1000 asylum (F87) is Grade 1 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon T101 is a heavy duty Grade 1 cylindrical lever with pressure release technology, though in passage function.
20) Is there a keyless option instead of the keyed Carson storeroom lever for a shared storage room?
If the goal is getting several people in without issuing keys, a mechanical pushbutton lever removes the key entirely. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical keyless lever lock covering 1-3/16 to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 1150 heavy duty keypad lever set with adjustable backset covers 1-1/8 to 2 inches. Trade-off: the Carson 439CNL keeps a key system you can rekey yourself with SmartKey and key alike across a building, which the keypad locks do not do.
