Kwikset 814AVH-15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon handleset work on its own, or do I need to order something else with it?
The 814AVH Avalon is an exterior pack only, and it needs a matching interior pack to complete the door. The handle grip is a dummy, so it does not latch or lock anything by itself, and there is no deadbolt in this configuration. Order the interior pack alongside it or you will have a plate on the outside of the door with nothing on the inside.
2) What does a dummy handleset actually do, and when should I buy one instead of a keyed entry handleset?
A dummy handleset is a non-functioning pull. Nothing turns, nothing latches, nothing keys. You buy one for the inactive leaf of a double door, for a French door slab held by a flush bolt or multipoint, or for a door where another lock already does the securing and you just want the same look. If the door needs to actually lock, the 814AVH is the wrong part, and a keyed entry handleset like the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever or the Sure-Loc Madison keyed entry handleset is what you want instead.
3) Will the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
No. The Avalon 814AVH is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, the standard exterior slab thickness. For a thinner 1-3/8 inch door, the Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy handleset with New Heaven lever covers the same range.
4) Will the Avalon 814AVH handleset drop into my existing door prep?
The Avalon latch has an adjustable backset that sets to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, which are the two backsets used on standard residential door prep, so it goes into a bored door without re-drilling the cross bore. It also comes with a 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike, matching a round corner mortise in the jamb. If your existing jamb is prepped square corner you will need to either swap the strike or chisel the corners.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon dummy handleset from another brand?
The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon is a non-keyed dummy handleset, exterior only, with no deadbolt. The nearest equivalents in function are the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever and the Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob, both listed as dummy function. The Emtek 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan brass mortise handlesets are also dummy function. The 814AVH fits 1-3/4 inch doors, while the Weslock 2815 and 6695 cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
6) Which handleset should be used instead of the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon on a door that needs to lock?
The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon is dummy function and non-keyed, so it does not latch or lock. For an opening that has to secure, use a keyed entry handleset such as the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent Lever, a Grade 2 entrance handleset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti Knob, single cylinder, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Sure-Loc Aspen AN507 and Madison MA507 are keyed entry handlesets with adjustable backset. Baldwin's Wesley handleset with Alcott or Carnaby knob is entrance function.
7) What handleset gives the look of a dummy exterior handle but still turns and latches the door?
A dummy handleset like the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon has no working latch at all. If the door needs to open and close without keying, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville Lever is a non-keyed entry function handleset, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Schlage Residential JI18/19 interconnected unit is passage function with a keyed deadbolt and Torino lever, also 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Both operate the door, where the 814AVH is trim only.
8) Is the Emtek 3002 Memphis dummy handleset interchangeable with the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon?
Both are dummy function handleset trim, but they are not the same preparation. The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon is a tubular Signature Series handleset with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike. The Emtek 3002 Memphis, along with the 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan, are brass mortise entrance handlesets in dummy function, which means mortise-style trim rather than a bored tubular prep. Confirm the door prep before treating one as a drop-in for the other.
9) Do I have to specify left or right hand when ordering the Avalon 814AVH handleset?
No handing to specify. The Avalon 814AVH is reversible, so the same part goes on a left hand or right hand door and you can stock one unit for either opening. That matters if you are buying for several units and do not want to sort handing at the door.
10) Does the Kwikset Avalon 814AVH come keyed, and can it be keyed alike with my other locks?
The 814AVH Avalon is non-keyed. There is no cylinder in it at all, because it is a dummy grip, so it cannot be keyed alike into a suite. If you need the Avalon look on a door that has to key into your existing system, you want a keyed Avalon handleset rather than the 814 dummy.
11) Is the Kwikset Avalon handleset rated for commercial use?
The Avalon 814AVH is a residential handleset. It carries a Grade 1 rating, which is the highest ANSI/BHMA durability tier, so it is built heavier than typical builder-grade trim, but the product itself is specified for residential openings. For multi-family unit entry doors that is usually fine; for a commercial opening under a spec, you should be buying commercial-listed hardware.
12) I want the Avalon look but the door needs a working deadbolt. What should I order?
The 814AVH is the lower grip with no deadbolt, so it will not secure the door. The Avalon family includes single cylinder handlesets with a deadbolt, and the 802AVH is the dummy version that includes both the door handle and deadbolt trim if you only need the appearance of a deadbolt. For a door that truly has to lock, order a single cylinder Avalon handleset rather than any of the dummy versions.
13) Can I use the Kwikset Avalon 814AVH dummy handleset on a fire rated door?
Kwikset states an optional 1/3 hour UL fire rating available for all functions except 802, 819 and 502. The 814 is not on that exclusion list, so the optional rating applies to it. If the opening is fire rated, you need to order the UL rated version specifically, not the standard one, and the rating is 20 minutes.
14) Does the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon carry a higher ANSI/BHMA grade than other residential handlesets?
The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon is rated Grade 1. Among residential handlesets, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona, the Schlage Residential JI18/19 and the Master Lock HDLB series single cylinder deadbolt handleset are all Grade 2. If a specification calls for Grade 1 trim on the opening, the 814AVH meets it and those four do not.
15) Which handlesets fit thicker doors than the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon?
The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. For thicker stock, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti Knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX and BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock touchscreen deadbolts with Ridgefield handleset also cover 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest and Deltana 810871 Montego handlesets run 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
16) Can the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon be used as mortise entry trim on a door with a mortise lock body?
No. The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon is a non-keyed dummy handleset for exterior use with a tubular latch at an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. Mortise trim is a different item: the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is entrance function mortise trim for 1-3/4 inch doors, offered as single cylinder (6542ENTR) and double cylinder (6542DBLC). Those dress a mortise lock body; the 814AVH does not.
17) What is a simpler alternative to a keyed handleset for a door that does not need to lock?
The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon Signature Series handleset is dummy function, reversible, exterior only with no deadbolt, so it serves a fixed or inactive leaf without any cylinder to key. Other dummy-function options are the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven Lever in the Premiere Essentials Series and the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa Knob in the Elegance Series. Keyed alternatives such as the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset and the Deltana 825871 Kingston and 815871 St. Ann solid brass handlesets are entry function and bring a cylinder that has to be keyed.
18) Which handlesets have an adjustable backset like the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon?
The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon has an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset latch, which covers both standard residential bore centers. The Sure-Loc Aspen AN507, Alta AT507 tubular, Coral CR507 and Madison MA507 handlesets are also built with an adjustable backset. That matters when standardizing across doors bored at different centers, since one part number covers both.
19) What is the difference between the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon and a handleset that includes a deadbolt?
The Kwikset 814AVH Avalon is the lower door handle only, exterior side, with no deadbolt and no keyed function. Handlesets that include a deadbolt are a different item: the Master Lock HDLB series HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset in entrance function, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson Knob is single cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Order the 814AVH when the opening already has its deadbolt handled separately or does not need one.
20) What finishes does the Kwikset 814AVH Avalon handleset come in?
Two finishes on the Avalon 814AVH: 510 Venetian Bronze and 619 Satin Nickel. If you are matching other Kwikset hardware already on the building, those are the standard Kwikset finish codes, so the same 510 or 619 on other Kwikset trim will match.
21) What style is the Kwikset Avalon handleset, and will it look right next to my existing trim?
Avalon is a transitional design, so it sits between traditional and contemporary and reads as neither ornate nor strictly modern. In practice it mixes acceptably with both older colonial trim and cleaner current trim, which is why it is a common pick when you are refreshing some doors in a building but not all of them. Finish is the bigger match question: Venetian Bronze or Satin Nickel.
