Kwikset 83186 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What doors is the Kwikset 83186 adjustable drive-in latch compatible with?
This latch fits standard residential doors with 2-1/8" bore holes. The adjustable backset works with both 2-3/8" and 2-3/4" door preparations. Verify your door thickness is between 1-3/8" and 1-3/4" for proper fit.
2) How do I adjust the backset on this replacement latch?
The latch features an adjustable mechanism that extends or retracts to match your door's backset. Simply pull or push the latch body to the desired position before installation. The adjustment locks in place once properly seated.
3) Will this latch work with my existing Kwikset deadbolt?
Yes, this is designed as a direct replacement for Kwikset deadbolt latches. It works with most Kwikset Grade 3 deadbolts. Check your current latch part number or measure the existing latch to confirm compatibility.
4) Does the latch accommodate both left and right-hand doors?
This is a universal latch that works on both left-hand and right-hand doors. The drive-in design eliminates the need for separate handed versions. Simply orient the latch properly during installation.
5) What grade rating does this latch provide?
This latch is designed for Grade 3 residential applications. It provides adequate security for standard home use but is not rated for commercial or high-security applications.
6) How do I install this drive-in latch?
Remove the old latch by unscrewing the faceplate. Adjust the new latch to match your door's backset. Insert the latch into the door edge and secure with the provided screws. Test operation before reinstalling the deadbolt.
7) What tools are needed for installation?
You'll need a Phillips head screwdriver and possibly a flat-head screwdriver. No special tools or drilling is required since this replaces an existing latch. Have a pencil ready to mark screw hole positions.
8) Can I use this latch with other deadbolt brands?
This latch is specifically designed for Kwikset deadbolts. While dimensions may be similar to other brands, compatibility is not guaranteed. For best results, use with Kwikset deadbolt hardware.
9) What if my door frame strike plate doesn't align?
Check that the latch backset is properly adjusted first. Minor misalignments can often be corrected by adjusting the strike plate position. For major alignment issues, verify the door hasn't sagged or shifted.
10) How often should I maintain or lubricate this latch?
Apply a small amount of graphite or dry lubricant to the latch mechanism every 6-12 months. Avoid oil-based lubricants which can attract dirt. Check that screws remain tight and the latch operates smoothly.
11) What are the exact dimensions of this latch?
The latch fits standard 2-1/8" bore holes with adjustable backset from 2-3/8" to 2-3/4". The faceplate is standard size for most residential applications. Verify measurements against your existing latch before ordering.
12) Are replacement parts available for this latch?
Individual components like springs or faceplates are typically not available separately. This latch is designed as a complete replacement unit. For additional door hardware components, check our full selection.
