Kwikset 815CEH-L03 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea handleset come with a deadbolt?
No deadbolt is included. The 815CEH Chelsea is the lower handleset with a Hancock interior knob only, and it is non-keyed. If your door already has a deadbolt above the handle and you're only replacing the grip and interior knob, that's exactly what this is for. If you need the deadbolt too, the Chelsea 800CE single cylinder handleset covers the grip and deadbolt together.
2) What backset does the Kwikset 815CEH need, and will it fit my existing bore?
The latch is adjustable between a 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backset, so it drops into either of the two standard residential preps without ordering a specific version. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore; if it lands on either of those, you're covered.
3) Do I have to order the Kwikset Chelsea 815CEH handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The Chelsea 815CEH is reversible, so one part number works on either a left or right hand swing. For a property manager buying several at once, that means one line item covers every door regardless of which way it opens.
4) Will the Kwikset 815CEH latch into the strike plate that's already in my jamb?
It ships with a 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike, and the latch has a round corner faceplate. If your jamb is already cut for a round corner strike of that size, the existing mortise should take it. Square corner prep will need the pocket squared off or the new strike's corners filed, so plan for a few minutes of chisel work there.
5) Is the Kwikset Chelsea 815CEH keyed, and can I key it to match my other doors?
It isn't keyed. The 815CEH is a non-keyed handleset, so there's no cylinder in it to key alike with anything else. Keying on the opening would come from the deadbolt above it. If you want the grip itself keyed, the Chelsea 800CE SMT with SmartKey or the 800CE SMC on the SC1 keyway are the keyed versions of this collection.
6) The door needs a handleset plus a separate deadbolt operated together. Does the Kwikset 815CEH do that?
No. The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is the lower handleset with a Hancock interior knob and carries no deadbolt. For an interconnected arrangement, the Schlage Residential JI18/19 is an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and Torino lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a single cylinder deadbolt handleset in an entrance function. Within Kwikset's own Chelsea trim, the 802CE is the dummy handleset that includes both the door handle and deadbolt sections.
7) I need a handleset that actually takes a key, not the Kwikset 815CEH. What should I order?
The Kwikset 815CEH is non-keyed and carries no deadbolt, so it will not accept a cylinder. For a keyed opening, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset with an Accent lever, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest is a single cylinder handleset with a Hudson knob, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset with an Eleganti knob, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder handleset in satin nickel. The Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a single cylinder deadbolt handleset in an entrance function.
8) My door is 1-3/8 inch thick. Will the Kwikset 815CEH work, and if not what will?
The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is specified for a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. For a thinner door, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison, the Schlage JE285 Barcelona, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington all cover 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest, Weslock 2815 Hillcrest, Weslock 6695 Belmont, and Deltana 810871 Montego all cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
9) Is a dummy handleset the same thing as the Kwikset 815CEH?
No. The Kwikset 815CEH is non-keyed but is a working entry/office function trim with an operating Hancock interior knob and a latch. A dummy handleset is fixed trim that does not operate a latch at all - the Emtek 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan brass mortise handlesets are all dummy function, as are the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest. Order a dummy only for an inactive leaf or a fixed panel.
10) Which handlesets meet a Grade 1 spec like the Kwikset 815CEH?
The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is a Grade 1 residential handleset. Among the residential handleset alternatives, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison, the Schlage JE285 Barcelona, the Schlage JI18/19 interconnected lock and the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D are all Grade 2. If a Grade 1 line item is written on the drawing, the 815CEH meets it where the Grade 2 units do not.
11) My door is prepped for a mortise lock. Can I use the Kwikset 815CEH?
No. The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is a bored 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, so it suits a standard bored door prep. For a mortise case, the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim is available in single cylinder and double cylinder versions, both for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Emtek Memphis, Hamilton, Melrose and Manhattan brass mortise handlesets are mortise trim in a dummy function.
12) I need a handleset that fits a thicker door than 1-3/4 inches. What should I buy instead of the Chelsea 815CEH?
The Chelsea 815CEH is a single-thickness handleset built for 1-3/4 inch doors, so a thicker slab needs a different part. Options that state a wider range: Deltana 810871 Montego and Weslock 2810 Hillcrest both cover 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches. Measure the slab at the edge before ordering.
13) What grade is the Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea handleset, and is it strong enough for a rental property front door?
Grade 1, which is the top of the three ANSI/BHMA operational grades and above the Grade 2 most residential handlesets carry. For comparison, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison and the Master Lock HDLB single cylinder deadbolt handleset are both Grade 2. It's a residential product, so it's aimed at single family and multi-family entry doors rather than high-traffic commercial openings.
14) What's the difference between the Kwikset 815CEH and a dummy handleset like the 814CE?
The 815CEH is a working lower handleset: the thumbpiece operates a latch, and the Hancock knob on the inside retracts it. A dummy handleset such as the Chelsea 814CE is a surface-mounted pull with no latch at all, used on an inactive leaf of a pair or a door held shut by other means. If the door needs to latch, you want the 815CEH. If it's fixed or bolted, the dummy is the cheaper and simpler part. The Emtek 3002 Memphis and Weslock 6695 Belmont are dummy-function handlesets from other brands if that's what the opening calls for.
15) I want the same Chelsea handleset but with a lever inside instead of a knob. Is there one?
Yes. The 815CETNL is the same Chelsea lower handleset with a Tustin interior lever in place of the Hancock knob. Same collection and same exterior look, so you can mix knob and lever doors in one building and still have the fronts match. Levers are the usual choice where an occupant has limited grip strength.
16) Is there a non-keyed handleset from another brand comparable to the Kwikset 815CEH?
The closest peer we carry is the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever, a non-keyed entry handleset in the J Series, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Against the Chelsea 815CEH, the Schlage takes a wider door thickness range and the Kwikset is Grade 1 with a lever version (815CETNL) if you want to match interiors across a building.
17) What handleset should I use on a thick 2-1/4 inch entry door?
The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. Where the door runs thicker, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Yale Real Living Ridgefield handleset packages BYRD226CBARX, BYRD226NRRX and BYRD256 CBARX also cover 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, with the Assure Lock 2 package under BYRD256CBARX reaching from 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
18) What is the alternative to the Kwikset 815CEH if the resident wants keyless electronic entry?
The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is a mechanical, non-keyed handleset with a Hancock interior knob. For an electronic opening, the Yale Real Living Assure line pairs a touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield handleset: BYRD226NRRX is standalone, BYRD226CBARX adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and BYRD256 CBARX is a key free Wi-Fi touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield passage handleset and trim. All three are for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, so confirm the door thickness before swapping.
19) I want a traditional brass handleset look instead of the Chelsea. What are the options?
The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is a transitional style handleset offered in Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel and Lifetime Polished Brass. For solid brass traditional trim, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann and the 825871 Kingston, all solid brass handlesets in an entry function, plus the 810871 Montego for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Baldwin's Wesley handleset is offered with an Alcott knob or a Carnaby knob, both in an entrance function.
20) What tools do I need to install a Kwikset Chelsea 815CEH handleset?
A screwdriver. The Chelsea handleset installs in minutes on a standard prepped door, with no special tools, and the adjustable latch means no swapping parts to match your backset. Kwikset publishes a drilling template and an installation sheet for it if the door is unprepped.
21) Does the Kwikset 815CEH have any antimicrobial coating?
Microban antimicrobial protection is built into the 815CEH Chelsea handleset, which Kwikset states keeps the hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. That's the reason this one gets specified in senior housing, clinics, and shared-entry multi-family, where the grip gets touched constantly.
22) Do I need to specify handing when substituting for the Kwikset 815CEH?
The Kwikset 815CEH Chelsea is reversible, so one part number covers a left or right hand door and no handing call-out is needed when standardizing across a building. Handing is worth confirming separately on any substitute you order against it, including the Baldwin Wesley handleset with Alcott or Carnaby knob and the Deltana 825871 Kingston entry handleset.
