Kwikset 814TVH-26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris dummy handleset come with the interior side, or do I need to order that separately?
Exterior pack only. The 814TVH Tavaris ships as the outside gripset with no interior trim, so you have to order the matching Tavaris interior pack to complete the door. There's also no deadbolt in the box, and the handle is non-functioning, it doesn't latch or retract anything.
2) What does a dummy handleset actually do, and when should I use one instead of a keyed entry handleset?
A dummy handleset is a pull, nothing more. The 814TVH Tavaris has no cylinder, no key, and no working latch, so it's what you put on the inactive leaf of a double door or on a door that's held shut some other way, and you want the exterior to match the active door. If the door has to lock, you want a single cylinder handleset instead, like the Kwikset 800TVH Tavaris in the same collection.
3) Will the Kwikset Tavaris latch drop into my existing round corner door prep?
It should. The latch on the 814TVH Tavaris has a round corner faceplate, and the strike is a 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike, which is the standard prep on most residential exterior doors and jambs. If your existing latch and strike are square corner, you'll be chiseling the mortise corners or swapping the strike.
4) What is the closest equivalent to the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris dummy handleset from another brand?
The Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy handleset with New Heaven lever is the closest match in function - it is a dummy handleset like the Tavaris 814TVH, so it mounts as a non-operating exterior grip with no latch or deadbolt to throw. The Weslock 2815 fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, while the 814TVH is set up for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob is the other dummy-function handleset option, also covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and pairs a knob rather than a lever on the trim.
5) The door needs a working lock, not a dummy grip - what takes the place of the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris?
The 814TVH Tavaris is a dummy, non-keyed handleset, so it will not secure an opening. For a keyed exterior door, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is a Grade 2 entrance-function handleset fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob is another keyed option, covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Sure-Loc Aspen AN507 single cylinder keyed entry handleset comes with an adjustable backset, the same arrangement as the Tavaris backset of 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch.
6) Are the Emtek 3002 Memphis and the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris interchangeable dummy handlesets?
Both are dummy-function handlesets, but they are prepped differently. The Emtek 3002 Memphis is a brass mortise entrance handleset in dummy form, so the door side it suits is a mortise pocket rather than the standard bored prep the Tavaris 814TVH uses with its adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset and 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike. Emtek offers the same mortise dummy in the 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose, and 3006 Manhattan designs. Confirm which prep the door already carries before swapping between them.
7) Is the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris handleset left hand or right hand?
Reversible, so one part number covers both swings. You don't specify handing when you order the Tavaris dummy handleset, and a property manager buying several for different openings can stock a single item.
8) What finishes does the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris dummy handleset come in?
Five: Venetian Bronze (510), Satin Nickel (619), Polished Chrome (625), Satin Chrome (626), and Matte Black (622). If you're matching other Kwikset hardware already on the building, those finish numbers are the ones to match against, and the rest of the Tavaris collection, including the 800TVH keyed handleset and the 802TVH dummy with deadbolt, runs the same family so the openings stay consistent.
9) What's the difference between the Kwikset 814TVH and the 802TVH Tavaris dummy handlesets?
Length of the plate. The 814TVH is the lower door handle only, no deadbolt section, so it's for a door where nothing sits above the grip. The 802TVH Tavaris dummy covers both the handle and the deadbolt area, which is what you want if the active door beside it has a full handleset with a deadbolt and you need the two leaves to read the same.
10) Is the Kwikset Tavaris handleset rated for a commercial building or is it residential only?
Residential. The 814TVH Tavaris is a Kwikset Signature Series product built for homes, and while it carries a Grade 1 rating, the intended application is residential openings, not a commercial or institutional door schedule. For a Grade 2 residential handleset from another brand, the Schlage F60 Addison and the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset are both in the same class.
11) What else could I use instead of the Kwikset 814TVH if I want a solid brass or mortise style dummy handleset?
The Emtek 3000 series brass mortise entrance handlesets are the dummy-function alternative from another brand: the 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose, and 3006 Manhattan are all brass mortise handlesets in dummy function. Weslock also does the 6695 Belmont dummy with an Impresa knob and the 2815 Hillcrest dummy with a New Heaven lever, both of which include interior trim rather than being an exterior pack like the Tavaris.
12) Which handleset gives the handleset look without a key, other than the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris dummy?
The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona style handleset with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry-function handleset, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch - it operates the latch but takes no key. The 814TVH Tavaris is non-keyed in a different way: it is dummy trim that does not operate at all, and it is Grade 1 for a 1-3/4 inch door. Pick the JE285 where the door has to open and close by handle, and the Tavaris where the leaf is fixed or inactive.
13) Is the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont trim a substitute for the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris?
No - they solve different problems. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is entry mortise trim, offered single cylinder and double cylinder, for a 1-3/4 inch door, and it dresses a mortise lock body that does the latching and locking. The 814TVH Tavaris is dummy trim with no operating function at all, on the same 1-3/4 inch door thickness. If the opening carries a mortise lock case, the 6542 is the trim that goes on it; the Tavaris will not drive it.
14) Which handleset matches the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris adjustable backset for doors bored at either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch?
The Tavaris 814TVH carries an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch, so it drops onto either standard bore. Among other brands, the Sure-Loc Alta AT507 tubular handleset, the Sure-Loc Coral CR507, and the Sure-Loc Madison MA507 keyed entry handleset all ship with an adjustable backset as well. The Sure-Loc units are operating handlesets; the Tavaris 814TVH is dummy trim and reversible, so hand does not need to be specified.
15) How does the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris compare to a Grade 2 handleset for a rental unit front door?
The 814TVH Tavaris is a residential Grade 1 handleset in dummy function, so it is style hardware rather than the securing point of the door. Grade 2 handlesets in the set include the Master Lock HDLB series HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset in entrance function, and the Schlage Residential F60 Addison keyed entry handleset with Accent lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a unit door that has to lock, the keyed Grade 2 units are the working hardware; the Tavaris covers the inactive leaf or a fixed panel in the same opening.
16) How hard is the Kwikset Tavaris handleset to install on an existing bored door?
It's a screwdriver job. The 814TVH Tavaris goes into standard door prep because the latch adjusts to either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so on a door already bored for a handleset you're removing the old exterior trim and mounting the new one. No special tooling, and there's a drilling template and installation sheet available if you're cutting a fresh door.
17) Is the Kwikset Tavaris a traditional or contemporary looking handleset?
Contemporary. The Tavaris is Kwikset's contemporary-styled handleset collection, which matters if you're matching it against existing hardware. If the building leans traditional, the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont mortise trim or the Deltana Hanover and Kingston solid brass handlesets are the more traditional shapes we carry.
18) Which handleset replaces the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris when keyless keypad entry is wanted on the same door?
The Tavaris 814TVH is non-keyed because it is dummy trim, not because it offers another way in. For keyless operation on a 1-3/4 inch or thicker door, the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset fits 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, as does the BYRD256 CBARX Assure key free touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield passage handleset and trim. The Yale BYRD256CBARX Assure Lock 2 key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset covers a wider 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch range.
19) What is an alternative to the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris for a solid brass handleset on an entry door?
The Tavaris 814TVH is a contemporary-style dummy handleset. For a solid brass operating handleset, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover in entry function, the 815871 St. Ann in entry function, and the 825871 Kingston in entry function, all solid brass. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch; the Tavaris is set for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Deltana units latch and key; the Tavaris does not.
20) What handleset pairs a knob rather than a lever, as an alternative to the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris?
The Tavaris 814TVH is an exterior-only handleset with no interior trim included, so the interior style is decided separately. For a factory knob pairing, the Baldwin Wesley handleset comes with the Alcott knob as 180WYHXATK and with the Carnaby knob as 180WYHXCYK, both entrance function. The Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob is the knob-trimmed option that keeps the dummy function the Tavaris 814TVH has.
21) Is the Schlage JI18/19 interconnected lock a substitute for the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris?
No. The Schlage Residential JI18/19 is an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and Torino lever in satin stainless steel, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch - deadbolt and latch retract together from the inside lever. The Tavaris 814TVH is a dummy handleset, exterior only, with no deadbolt in the package. They prep differently and serve opposite purposes: the JI18/19 for a code-driven single-motion egress door, the Tavaris for decorative exterior grip.
22) Which entry handleset covers both 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch doors where the Kwikset 814TVH Tavaris does not?
The Tavaris 814TVH is specified for a 1-3/4 inch door. The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset in satin nickel fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch in entry function, which covers a mixed stock of slab thicknesses on one part number. The Tavaris 814TVH is the dummy counterpart and comes in five finishes including 619 satin nickel.
