Kwikset 300DNL-15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset Dorian privacy lever fit a door bored for a 2-3/8 inch backset, or do I need the 2-3/4?
Either. The Dorian privacy set ships with an adjustable 6AL latch that sets to a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, so it drops into standard door prep without ordering a backset-specific latch. Those two are the usual backsets on residential and commercial wood doors, so measure from the door edge to the center of the bore and set the latch to match before you mount the roses.
2) Is the Kwikset 300DNL Dorian lever handed, or can I use it on both left and right hand doors?
No handing to specify. The Dorian lever is fully reversible, so the same set works on a right hand or left hand door and you decide at install rather than at order. That matters if you are buying a dozen for a building and do not want to survey every opening first.
3) Does the Kwikset Dorian 300DNL lever take a key, or is it just a thumbturn?
Thumbturn only. This is a privacy function set: it locks with a turn piece on the inside of the door and has no keyed cylinder. That is what you want on a bedroom or bathroom. If you need a key on the outside of that door, a privacy lever is the wrong function and you want an entry or keyed-lever set instead.
4) Can I use a Kwikset Dorian privacy lever on an exterior or front door?
No. The Dorian 300DNL is an interior privacy lever, built for bedroom and bathroom doors, and it is a residential-duty set. There is no key cylinder and no deadlocking security function, so it should not go on an entry door. Use a keyed entry lever or a knob-and-deadbolt combination on any opening to the outside.
5) Is the Kwikset Dorian privacy lever tough enough for apartment turnover across a building?
It carries an ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 certification, which is the residential duty level, and Kwikset states it is tested for durability and performance. Grade 3 is appropriate for apartment bedroom and bath doors and single-family interiors. For a high-traffic commercial corridor, an office suite, or an institutional restroom, step up to a Grade 2 or Grade 1 commercial cylindrical lever instead.
6) What finishes does the Kwikset Dorian 300DNL privacy lever come in?
Two: Venetian Bronze and Satin Nickel. Those are the finishes to match against the hinges and the other levers already hanging in the unit, and both are common enough that mixing this set into an existing Kwikset-trimmed building is straightforward. Pick the one that matches your existing hardware and order the whole opening group in it.
7) Does the Kwikset Dorian privacy set come with a latch and strike, or do I order those separately?
Both are included. The set ships with the 6AL adjustable latch and the RCS strike, so a complete opening needs nothing else from the hardware side. All you need is a screwdriver, and Kwikset rates the install at a few minutes per door.
8) Should I use a privacy lever or a passage lever on a bathroom door?
Privacy, if the door needs to lock. A passage set latches only and has no locking function at all. The Dorian 300DNL is the privacy version: a turn piece on the room side locks it, which is what a bedroom or bath needs. If the door is a closet, a hallway, or a laundry, passage is the correct and simpler choice, since a lockable closet door creates more problems than it solves.
9) Will a lever work where I currently have a Kwikset privacy knob, or does the door need new prep?
A cylindrical privacy knob and this cylindrical privacy lever use the same door prep, so a lever swap on a standard 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset bore is a direct change with no new boring. The Dorian is a cylindrical lock with an adjustable latch covering both backsets. Levers are also the choice where you want the handle usable without gripping and twisting.
10) What does Microban protection on the Kwikset Dorian lever actually do?
The Dorian lever is treated with Microban antimicrobial product protection, which Kwikset states keeps door hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. It is built into the finish rather than applied as a coating you maintain. This is a point that comes up on assisted living, healthcare, and hospitality bath doors where the lever gets touched constantly.
11) Can I match the Kwikset Dorian lever across other doors in the same house or unit?
The Dorian is a collection, so the same traditional lever style is carried across functions, and specifying Dorian in one finish keeps the openings in a unit consistent. Buy the privacy version for bedrooms and baths and the matching passage or entry function for the rest of the doors, all in either Venetian Bronze or Satin Nickel.
