Kwikset 300T-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset 300T Tylo privacy knob fit a door bored for a 2-3/8 inch backset, or do I need the 2-3/4 inch version?
Either one. The 6AL latch that ships with the Tylo 300T privacy knob is adjustable between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, so one part covers both standard bore preps. Set the latch to match the hole you already have before you drop the knob in. Those two backsets are the only ones you will find on a standard residential door, so there is no separate part number to chase.
2) Is the Kwikset Tylo 300T knob handed, or will it work on a left-hand door?
Universal handing. The Tylo 300T privacy knob works on right-hand and left-hand doors as it comes out of the box, with nothing to reverse or reorder. For a property manager buying a dozen at once for bedroom and bathroom doors, that means one part number regardless of which way each door swings.
3) My existing latch faceplate is square cornered and the new one is round. Do I have to chisel the door edge?
No. The 6AL latch supplied with the Tylo 300T privacy knob carries two interchangeable faceplates, one round corner and one square corner, so it drops into whichever mortise your door edge is already cut for. Pick the plate that matches and skip the chisel work entirely.
4) Is a Kwikset Tylo 300T knob strong enough for apartment turnover work, or do I need a commercial grade lock?
The Tylo 300T is certified to ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 and is built as a residential lock, which is the normal spec for bedroom and bathroom doors in a house or apartment unit. For a commercial corridor, a school, or anywhere the door gets institutional traffic, step up: the Dexter C2000 privacy knob is Grade 2, and Grade 1 options in this family include the Schlage D10S and the Falcon X101. Grade 1 is the heaviest cylindrical duty rating, Grade 2 is the middle, Grade 3 the light-duty residential tier.
5) The door needs a key from the outside - what replaces the Tylo privacy knob?
A privacy knob such as the Tylo 300T has a turn piece inside and no cylinder, so it cannot be keyed. For a keyed opening, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway, which lets it key into an existing Kwikset-keyed system, and it fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Pamex FTF Baron in entrance/office function is another Grade 3 keyed option at the same door thickness range, and the Dexter C2000 entry/office ball knob is a Grade 2 keyed set.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Kwikset 300T Tylo privacy knob from another brand?
The Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in privacy function is the nearest match: it is a Grade 3 knob lockset with a Privacy/Bed/Bath function, the same grade and function class as the Tylo 300T, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Cal-Royal BER20 is a second Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim, also for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Any of the three will serve a bedroom or bathroom door where a turn button inside and no keyway outside is what the opening calls for.
7) What privacy knob should I use on a commercial door instead of the Kwikset Tylo?
The Tylo 300T is a residential Grade 3 knob. For a commercial corridor or a multi-family building hallway where the traffic is heavier, the Dexter C2000 Series privacy knob is a Grade 2 cylindrical ball knob lock in Privacy/Bed/Bath function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Grade 2 is the step up in ANSI/BHMA cycle and strength testing from Grade 3, so it is the usual specification for tenant bathroom and dorm-style doors.
8) Which knobs look like a substitute for the Tylo 300T privacy set but are not?
Dummy knobs are the common mix-up. The BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, the Schlage A170 single dummy trim, the Bravura Biloxi dummy knobset, and the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg dummy pair are all knob trim with a dummy function - they mount to the face of the door and do not latch or lock at all. The Tylo 300T carries a latch and a turn piece for privacy, so a dummy set will not hold a bathroom or bedroom door closed.
9) What knob do I use on a fire-rated door in place of a residential privacy set?
The Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock with a fire rating and a passage/closet latch function on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire-rated passage knobset with an interchangeable core for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both are passage function, so they latch without locking. The Tylo 300T is a residential privacy knob and its published rating is ANSI/BHMA Grade 3.
10) Does the Kwikset 300T privacy knobset come with a strike plate, or do I order that separately?
Everything needed for the opening is in the box: the knob set, the 6AL adjustable latch, and an RCS strike for the frame. No separate strike or latch to add to the order. Install is a screwdriver job, no special tools.
11) I need a privacy knob that matches the passage knobs on the rest of the doors. Does Kwikset Tylo come in a passage version?
Tylo is a full Kwikset collection, and the 300T is the privacy function within it, thumbturn inside, no key. Bedroom and bathroom doors take the privacy; closets and hall doors take a passage knob, which latches but does not lock. Order both in the same finish and the trim reads as one set down the hallway. If you are matching to another brand's family instead, the Pamex Baron FTF line runs privacy and passage on the same knob design, both Grade 3.
12) What is the difference between a privacy knob and a dummy knob for a bathroom door?
A privacy knob like the Kwikset Tylo 300T has a working latch and a thumbturn that locks the door from the inside. A dummy knob, such as the BEST 6K single dummy trim or the Bravura Biloxi, is a fixed pull with no latch and no lock at all, used on a door held shut by a ball catch or on the inactive leaf of a pair. If someone needs to lock themselves in a bathroom, the dummy is the wrong part.
13) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch - what privacy knob fits it?
The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob is rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, so it covers thicker slabs than the 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range that Grade 3 residential privacy knobs such as the Cal-Royal BER20 and Pamex FTF Baron privacy cover. If the opening is a heavy commercial door, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 non-keyed cylindrical knob is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, though it is a passage/closet function rather than privacy.
14) I need the same knob on a closet or hall door with no lock at all - what do I order?
Use a passage knob rather than a privacy knob; a passage set latches but has no turn button. The Dexter C2000 Series passage knob is a Grade 2 cylindrical ball knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob is a Grade 3 set for the same door thickness range, matching the Tylo 300T's Grade 3 rating. Arrow's MK01 and RK01 are also Grade 2 non-keyed passage knobs for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
15) I am buying the front door and the bedroom doors at the same time - what pairs with the Tylo 300T?
The Tylo 300T handles the interior privacy doors. For the entry, the Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which matches the Tylo's adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset latch and its round corner and square corner faceplates. Master Lock's BC Series biscuit knob is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob, the same grade as the Tylo, and Callan offers Grade 3 entrance knobsets in the Canova and Santo styles.
16) What is the heavy duty knob to standardize on across a facility where the Tylo is too light?
For heavy duty openings, the BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder entrance knob lock, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed passage knob with an orbit knob. The Tylo 300T is a Grade 3 residential privacy knob for bedroom and bathroom doors, so it sits in a different service class than any of the three.
17) Is there a keyless combination knob I can use instead of a privacy knob on an interior door?
The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch. It opens on a code rather than a turn button, which suits a supply room or office where you want controlled access without cutting keys. The Tylo 300T works differently: it locks with a turn piece on the interior and is intended for bathroom and bedroom privacy.
18) Which knob has the antimicrobial coating if I am specifying for a healthcare or hospitality property?
The Tylo 300T latch is treated with Microban antimicrobial product protection, which keeps door hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces, and it is universal handing so one part number covers right hand and left hand doors. If the same opening needs a higher grade instead, the Dexter C2000 privacy knob is Grade 2 and the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder.
19) What finishes does the Kwikset Tylo privacy knob come in?
Five: Satin Nickel, Bright Chrome, Satin Chrome, Bright Brass and Antique Brass. If you are matching hallway hardware that is already installed, Satin Nickel and Bright Brass are the two that most often line up with existing residential trim. Every finish is the same 300T privacy function, so mixing finishes across a building does not change the way any of them operate.
20) What does the Microban treatment on the Kwikset Tylo knob actually do?
Microban antimicrobial protection is built into the hardware and keeps the surface 99.9 percent cleaner than untreated hardware. It inhibits growth on the knob itself; it is not a disinfectant and does not replace cleaning. It is the reason this knob gets specified in healthcare, hospitality and multi-family bathroom doors over an untreated equivalent.
