Kwikset 953OBN-HFLRDT-11P – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset 953 Obsidian deadbolt fit my existing door prep, or do I have to re-drill?
The 953 Obsidian uses the standard residential deadbolt prep with an adjustable latch that sets to either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so it drops into most existing bored doors without new drilling. Kwikset publishes a drilling template with the lock if you are prepping a fresh door. The latch is also reversible, so the same unit works on a left or right hand door.
2) Does the Kwikset 953 Obsidian have a key override if the batteries die?
No key, and that is the point of this one. The 953 Obsidian is keywayless, with no cylinder to pick or bump, so there is no mechanical override. For a dead-battery situation you touch a 9V battery to the exterior contacts to power the lock long enough to enter your code. If your building policy requires a physical key override on every door, pick a keyed electronic deadbolt instead.
3) Can I use the Kwikset 953 SmartCode deadbolt on a commercial or multi-family entry door?
It's built and rated as a residential lock, not a commercial one. For an apartment unit door or a single-family entry it's a fit; for a commercial opening where a facility spec calls for a graded deadbolt, look at something like the Cal-Royal CRB800 Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt or the Design Hardware D1 Series Grade 1 extra heavy duty deadbolt.
4) How many user codes can the Kwikset 953 Obsidian hold, and can I manage them for tenants?
Up to 16 user codes, with a Mastercode for adding and deleting them, which is enough to give each tenant, cleaner, and trade a separate code on a small property. Three wrong codes in a row triggers an alarm and a temporary screen lockout. There is no app or remote management on the 953; codes are programmed at the keypad. If you need remote control of codes, the Kwikset 954 Obsidian with Z-Wave is the version to look at.
5) Is this Kwikset 953 order just the deadbolt, or does it include a lever too?
It comes as a set: the 953 Obsidian touchscreen deadbolt plus a Halifax lever passage set on a round rose, with an RCAL latch and RCS strike for the lever. The lever is passage function, meaning it does not lock, so all the security on the opening comes from the deadbolt. If you want the handle to lock independently, order a keyed or privacy lever instead.
6) What is another keypad electronic deadbolt if the Kwikset 953 Obsidian touchscreen deadbolt is not the right fit?
The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt in the KP400 series that adds a programmable remote, which the Kwikset 953 Obsidian does not use - the 953 is operated from a touchscreen reader with user codes entered directly on the door. Both are non-keyed electronic deadbolts for residential openings, so the choice comes down to whether you want remote operation or code-only entry at the door.
7) I need an electronic deadbolt for a multifamily or hotel property with credential-based access rather than user codes. What should I look at instead of the Kwikset 953 Obsidian?
The Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a residential electronic deadbolt operated by a touchscreen with user codes. For RFID credential access, the Dormakaba Nova-D is an RFID multihousing smart electronic deadbolt in the Nova series, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override in the Saffire series. Those two read a card or phone credential rather than a typed code.
8) Can I use the Kwikset 953 Obsidian on a fire rated door, and what deadbolt should I use if not?
The Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a residential electronic deadbolt. For an opening where a fire rating is required, the Hager 3115 Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt, the Hager 3215 single cylinder deadbolt with 1 inch throw, and the Hager 3118 Grade 1 classroom deadbolt are all fire rated and fit doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches; the Cal-Royal CRB800 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch.
9) What should I use instead of the Kwikset 953 if I want an electronic deadbolt with credential or RFID access?
The 953 Obsidian is code entry only, through a touchscreen keypad. For card or fob credentials, the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override is the RFID option, and the Dormakaba Nova-D RFID multihousing smart deadbolt is aimed at multi-family. The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote if you want keyfob operation without RFID infrastructure.
10) Is the Kwikset 953 deadbolt keyed alike or can it be rekeyed to my building's system?
Neither applies. The 953 Obsidian is non-keyed, with no cylinder at all, so it can't be keyed alike or brought into an existing master key system. On a property that runs one keyway across every unit, you'd break that standardization on this door. A keyed deadbolt like the Hager 3115 (Schlage C keyway) or the Arrow E61 with SFIC prep keeps a door on your keying system.
11) Is there a keypad deadbolt I can mount on the surface of a door instead of boring for the Kwikset 953 Obsidian?
Yes. The Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a bored tubular deadbolt with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Codelocks CL2200 is an electronic surface deadbolt in the CL2000 series, rated medium duty and offered in a brushed steel finish, and the Codelocks CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt. Pick the surface unit when the door cannot take a standard bore, and the mortise unit when the door is already prepped for a mortise case.
12) What is the simplest keyed deadbolt to put on a door where the Kwikset 953 Obsidian electronic lock is more than the opening needs?
The Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a non-keyed electronic deadbolt with a touchscreen. If a plain mechanical bolt is enough, the Dexter DB2000 single cylinder deadbolt is Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, and the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with adjustable backset in the Chelsie ED series for the same door thickness range. Both operate by key outside and thumbturn inside instead of a code.
13) Will a Corbin Russwin DL3011 or Arrow E61 work as a substitute for the Kwikset 953 Obsidian touchscreen deadbolt?
No, those are not code-entry locks. The Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock in a cylinder x blank configuration for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, and the Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock prepped for a small format interchangeable core, supplied less core, for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. Both are keyed commercial deadlocks, while the Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a non-keyed residential electronic deadbolt with no keyway at all.
14) Is the Kwikset 953 Obsidian an interior one-sided deadbolt, or do I need something like the Callan 205S?
The Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a two-sided electronic deadbolt: a touchscreen keypad outside and an interior assembly with programming buttons behind a tamper-resistant cover. If you need a true one-sided unit that only bores partway through, the Callan 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt, and the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock with a blank plate outside and thumbturn inside for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches.
15) I need the deadbolt to release with the lever on the same door. Is the Kwikset 953 Obsidian the right choice?
The Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a standalone electronic deadbolt; the lever that ships alongside it is a passage lock, so the bolt and the lever operate independently. If you want the inside lever to retract the deadbolt in one motion, the Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt in the H2 series.
16) Is there an electric deadbolt I can tie into an access control system instead of using the Kwikset 953 Obsidian keypad?
Yes. The Kwikset 953 Obsidian is a battery-powered standalone lock programmed at the door with up to 16 user codes. The DynaLock 1300 series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt, which mounts in the frame or door and is released by a signal from an access control system rather than by a code entered on the lock.
17) What finishes does the Kwikset 953 Obsidian touchscreen deadbolt come in?
Two: 510 Venetian Bronze and 619 Satin Nickel. The touchscreen face itself is a flat glass-like panel in a contemporary low-profile shape, so on a building where the other openings run traditional rosettes it will read as a different look rather than a match.
18) Can someone read my code off the fingerprints on the Kwikset 953 touchscreen?
That's what SecureScreen is for. Before accepting your code the screen prompts you to touch random digits, so the smudge pattern left on the glass doesn't map to your actual code. It's a patented Kwikset feature on the 953 Obsidian and it matters on any door facing a public corridor or street.
19) I want a contemporary round or square deadbolt in the same modern look as the Kwikset 953 Obsidian but without electronics. What matches?
The Kwikset 953 Obsidian carries a contemporary styling with a flat glass-like face. For a mechanical lock in that same design language, the Bravura 310RC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary round deadbolt and the Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt, both cylinder x thumbturn. The Baldwin Reserve contemporary round and contemporary square deadbolts are double cylinder versions of the same round and square trim shapes.
