Kwikset 405DL-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset 405DL Delta lever fit a 2-3/8 inch backset door, or do I need the 2-3/4?
Either one. The Delta 405DL ships with a 6AL latch that adjusts between 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset, so it drops into both standard bores without ordering a different latch. Those are the only two backsets used on residential doors, so one part covers whatever is already drilled.
2) Is the Kwikset Delta 405DL handed? I have a left hand swing entry door.
No handing to specify. The Delta lever is fully reversible and installs on right or left hand doors, so you order it the same way for every opening in a building and sort the swing out at install.
3) How does the Kwikset 405DL Delta lever lock and unlock, and does it take a key from outside?
Keyed entry function. Outside is key operated and two keys come in the box; inside there's a turn piece you throw by hand to lock it. That's the standard front or side door setup, not a storeroom lock, so anyone inside can lock and unlock without a key.
4) Can I get several Kwikset Delta 405DL locks on one key?
Yes, keying is a choice you make at order time: keyed alike, so one key runs every lock you buy, or keyed different, so each lock gets its own. Property managers replacing several doors in a unit usually take keyed alike; landlords turning over separate units take keyed different.
5) I need a lever for a commercial corridor, not a house. What should I use instead of the Delta 405DL?
The 405DL Delta is a residential keyed entry lever at ANSI/BHMA Grade 3. For commercial openings, step up to a Grade 1 keyed lever: the Dexter C1000 Series entry/office lever DEX-C1000-ENTR is Grade 1 with a clutching keyed lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. At Grade 2, the Hager 2525 is a commercial cylindrical entry lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty entry/office lever.
6) The unit door needs to lock behind the tenant every time. Is the Delta 405DL the right function?
No - the 405DL Delta locks by a turn piece on the interior, so someone has to set it. For a door that stays locked and is always keyed from outside, use a storeroom function: the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with a Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Kwikset 405DL Delta keyed entry lever from another brand?
The Master Lock BC Series RL01 is the nearest match: it is a Grade 3 return style lever keyed entry lockset, the same ANSI/BHMA grade and the same entrance function as the 405DL Delta, which is Grade 3 certified keyed entry with an interior turn piece. If you want a forged brass body in a similar role, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Callan Artino CLN-360201 is another Grade 3 entrance leverset.
8) Is a dummy lever the same as a keyed entry lever like the Delta 405DL?
No. A dummy lever is a fixed pull with no latch and no cylinder, so it will not secure an opening. The Callan Bentley CLN-BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever, the BEST 7KC Series 7KC-1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta YAL-AU-455LN is a Grade 1 single dummy in the 5400 Series. The 405DL Delta is for exterior doors where keyed entry and security is needed and comes with 2 keys, so a dummy is not a substitute for it - dummies go on the inactive leaf of a pair or on a surface bolt door.
9) I want to stop carrying keys for the back entrance. What keyless lever replaces a Delta 405DL?
A mechanical pushbutton lever removes the key from the equation. The Lockey 2835 LOC-2835-SC is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the 2835DC adds a double combination on the same door thickness range. The Lockey 1150S is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever with adjustable backset for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, which covers a wider range of door thicknesses than the 405DL Delta's adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset addresses. For an electronic keypad instead of mechanical, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock.
10) What keyed lever should I use on a classroom door instead of a Delta entry lever?
The 405DL Delta is an entry function that locks with an interior turn piece, which is not a classroom function. The Dexter C1000 Series classroom lever DEX-C1000-CLRM is Grade 1, clutching and keyed for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch; the C1000 classroom security DEX-C1000-CSEC adds the second cylinder for locking from inside on the same door range. The Cal-Royal AG03 is a classroom lever in the AG Series with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/4 inch backset.
11) Can I key a Delta 405DL into a Schlage C system the rest of the building uses?
The 405DL Delta is ordered keyed different or keyed alike within its own set. If the building keyway is Schlage C, specify a lock built on that keyway instead: the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different with a 2-3/8 inch backset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS asylum lock uses a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway. Keying two different keyways alike is not something a lever set does on its own.
12) Do I need a fire rated lever, and is the Delta 405DL one?
The 405DL Delta is a residential Grade 3 keyed entry lever. Where the opening requires a fire rated lock, specify a peer that carries the rating: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lock with a fire rating and non-handed levers for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 fire rated vandal resistant passage/closet lever for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a fire rated privacy lock for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
13) Do I need a new strike plate and latch, or does the Kwikset 405DL include them?
Everything for the door comes with it: the 6AL adjustable latch and an RCS round corner strike are in the box. No separate latch or strike to order. Install is screwdriver only, a few minutes per door.
14) Should I use a keyed entry lever like the Kwikset Delta, or a lever plus a separate deadbolt on my exterior door?
The Delta 405DL is a keyed entry lever on its own, which is enough where you want a locking handle and nothing more. If the opening needs a second point of security, add a deadbolt above it, or use a combined set instead: the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset sold as a deadbolt combo. For a door that only needs to latch and never lock, a passage lever such as the Callan Asheville is the right part instead.
15) I want to get rid of keys on a rental. What lever can I use instead of the Kwikset 405DL?
The Delta 405DL is key operated, so if you want code entry, look at a keypad leverset instead. The Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock, and the Lockey 1150S is a mechanical pushbutton keypad lever with an adjustable backset that covers doors 1-1/8 to 2 inches thick. Mechanical keypads need no batteries, which is why they turn up on gates and back of house doors.
16) The interior doors on the same job do not need a key. What lever goes with a Delta keyed entry set?
For the bedroom and bath doors, a privacy lever such as the Hager 2540 with Withnell lever or the Arrow MK02-TA covers the same openings without a key; the MK02-TA is fire rated and the 2540 fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. For closets and halls, a passage lever such as the Callan Asheville CLN-AH5011, a Grade 3 passage leverset offered in satin nickel, matches the grade of the 405DL Delta, and the satin nickel pairs with the satin nickel finish the Delta is offered in. The Hager 2510 passage lever is a Grade 2 option for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
17) My doors are 2 inches thick. Will a Delta 405DL work, or do I need something else?
The 405DL Delta is a residential lever with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset for standard door preparations. For thicker doors, look at peers that state the range: the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers all cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Hager 2525 entry lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Dexter C1000 asylum function covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Above that, the Falcon K101 passage lever handles 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
18) Is there a keyed entry lever with a knob instead of a lever, or a matching deadbolt combo?
For a knob rather than a lever, the Arrow HK11-BB is an entrance function cylindrical lock with a ball knob and a turn-pushbutton, using a conventional cylinder on doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch - the same turn-and-lock idea as the 405DL Delta's interior turn piece, in a knob. If you want the entry lever and deadbolt together as one set, the Callan Bennett CLN-BN3001R is a Grade 3 entrance leverset with a deadbolt combo, matching the Grade 3 rating of the Delta.
19) The Delta 405DL is reversible - do I still have to worry about handing when I pick a substitute?
With the 405DL Delta the lever is fully reversible and installs on right and left handed doors, so one part number covers both. Not every alternative works that way: the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is ordered by hand, BAL-5103-LDM for left hand and BAL-5103-RDM for right hand. Others are non-handed by design, such as the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage lever and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock, both described as non-handed.
20) What finishes does the Kwikset Delta entry lever come in?
Five: Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome and Satin Chrome. If you're matching hinges and a deadbolt already on the door, Satin Nickel and Venetian Bronze are the two that pair with most existing Kwikset residential trim.
21) What is the Microban protection on the Kwikset Delta lever and does it matter in a healthcare or multi-family setting?
Microban antimicrobial protection is built into the finish and keeps the hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. It's a surface treatment on the lever and rose, not a substitute for cleaning, and it does not change the lock's function or grade. It's the reason this lever gets specified on high touch residential doors.
22) What is a decorative alternative to the Delta lever for a front door in a period home?
The Deltana entry levers give you a traditional trim in the same keyed entry role: the 5851 Claremont, the 6201 Manchester, the 6411 Morant and the 6431 Linstead are all entry function levers, with the Manchester, Morant and Linstead fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The 405DL Delta comes in Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome and Satin Chrome if you would rather stay with a contemporary lever and pick the finish to suit.
