Kwikset 687AMDLIP-26DS.DS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset Amador handleset fit my existing door bore, or do I need to re-drill?
No re-drilling needed on a standard prep. The Amador handleset latch has an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch, which covers both of the backsets used on residential doors, so it drops into standard door preparations.
2) Can I key the Kwikset Amador handleset to match my other locks?
Yes, and you can do it yourself. The Amador uses SmartKey Security, so the cylinder re-keys in seconds without pulling the lock apart. It works with either the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the SC1 keyway, so a property with Schlage-keyed SC1 keys can be brought onto one key. Two keys ship with the lock.
3) Is the Kwikset Amador handleset deadbolt strong enough for a main entry door?
The handleset deadbolt is ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 certified with a 1 inch deadbolt throw, which is the full throw a residential entry deadbolt is expected to have. Grade 3 is the residential tier of the standard, and this set is catalogued for residential use, so for a commercial or high-traffic opening you would want a Grade 2 or Grade 1 product instead.
4) Do I need square corner or round corner latch faceplates for the Kwikset Amador?
Either works, because both are in the box. The Amador ships with the round corner faceplate installed (RCAL latch) and both the entry latch and the deadbolt latch include interchangeable round corner and square corner faceplates, so you can match whatever your door edge is already mortised for.
5) Is the Kwikset Amador keyed on both sides or does it have a thumbturn inside?
Single cylinder. The key cylinder is on the exterior only and the deadbolt is operated from inside by a turn piece. If a glass-front or sidelite door means you need a key on the inside too, a double cylinder set such as the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont double cylinder entry mortise trim is the configuration to look at.
6) What is a comparable single cylinder keyed entry handleset to the Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S from another brand?
The Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is the closest cross-brand equivalent. It is a Grade 2 entrance-function handleset fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Kwikset Amador handleset is a single cylinder exterior handleset whose deadbolt is ANSI/BHMA Grade 3 certified, with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch latch backset, a 1 inch deadbolt throw, and SmartKey Security re-keying that works with the KW1 or SC1 keyway. The Amador uses an interior turn piece; the F60 pairs the exterior handle with an Accent lever inside.
7) Which handlesets look like the Kwikset Amador but will not lock a door?
Watch for dummy-function trim. The Emtek 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan brass mortise entrance handlesets are all dummy function, as are the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever. The Schlage JE285 Barcelona handleset with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function. The Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S is a keyed single cylinder exterior handleset with a Grade 3 deadbolt and a 1 inch throw, so only the keyed units are interchangeable with it on a main entry.
8) What strikes come with the Kwikset Amador handleset, or do I have to order them separately?
Both strikes are included. You get the 5303 full lip round strike for the latch, which has a 1/2 inch latch throw, plus a round deadbolt strike. Nothing extra to buy for the frame side on a standard jamb prep.
9) What are the alternatives to the Kwikset Amador if I need a thicker door or a lever instead of a knob grip?
For a thick entry door, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale colonial handleset covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. For a keyed handleset with a lever, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is listed Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. If you want a keypad instead of a key, the Yale Assure BYRD226NRRX standalone touchscreen deadbolt comes with the Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
10) Is the Kwikset Amador a working lock or just decorative trim?
It is a functioning keyed entry handleset for exterior doors, with a working latch and a deadbolt. Decorative-only sets, like the Emtek 3002 Memphis or Emtek 3004 Hamilton mortise entrance handlesets, are dummy function and have no latch or lock at all, which is what you would use on the inactive leaf of a pair.
11) Which keyed entry handlesets have an adjustable backset like the Kwikset Amador handleset?
The Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S latch adjusts from a 2-3/8 inch to a 2-3/4 inch backset so it drops into either standard bore spacing. Among other brands, Sure-Loc offers adjustable-backset keyed entry handlesets in the Aspen (AN507) and Madison (MA507) series, plus the Alta tubular handleset (AT507) and the Coral handleset (CR507). If you are ordering for a mix of doors bored at both backsets, any of these avoids sorting parts by opening.
12) Which entry handleset should I use on a 1-3/4 inch mortise-prepped door instead of the Kwikset Amador?
The Amador 687AMDLIP-S is a tubular-style single cylinder handleset with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch latch backset. For a mortise-prepped opening, look at the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim, offered single cylinder (6542ENTR) or double cylinder (6542DBLC), both entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors. Emtek also builds brass mortise entrance handlesets in the Memphis, Hamilton, Melrose and Manhattan patterns, though those are dummy function.
13) What is the alternative to the Kwikset Amador handleset if I want keyless or app access at the front door?
The Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S is a mechanical single cylinder handleset keyed with SmartKey and supplied with 2 keys. For electronic access on the same style of opening, Yale Real Living pairs a Ridgefield handleset with a touchscreen deadbolt: the BYRD226NRRX is a standalone touchscreen deadbolt, the BYRD226CBARX adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and the BYRD256 CBARX is a key-free Wi-Fi touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield passage handleset and trim. The BYRD226 and BYRD256 CBARX units list a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range.
14) I want a handleset with a knob inside rather than a turn piece - what are my options next to the Kwikset Amador?
The Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S locking mechanism works from a turn piece on the interior. If you want an interior knob or lever instead, the Baldwin Wesley handleset is offered with an Alcott knob (180WYHXATK) or a Carnaby knob (180WYHXCYK), both entrance function, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial single cylinder keyed entry pairs with an Eleganti knob. The Schlage F60 Addison uses an Accent lever.
15) Is the Schlage JI18/19 interconnected lock a substitute for the Kwikset Amador handleset?
No. The Schlage Residential JI18/19 is an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and Torino lever in satin stainless, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the lever itself is passage function and the security comes from the separate deadbolt. The Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S is a single cylinder exterior handleset with a Grade 3 certified deadbolt, 1 inch throw and an interior turn piece. Different trim style and different door prep, so treat them as separate specifications.
16) Is there a satin nickel single cylinder handleset alternative to the Kwikset Amador?
The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset comes in a satin nickel finish, entry function, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S is also offered in Satin Nickel, along with Satin Chrome, Bright Chrome and Matte Black, and adds SmartKey re-keying on the KW1 or SC1 keyway.
17) What finishes does the Kwikset Amador handleset come in?
Four: Satin Nickel, Satin Chrome, Bright Chrome, and Matte Black. If you are standardizing a building, pick the one that matches existing trim, since the Amador collection styling carries across all four.
18) What tools does a Kwikset Amador handleset install take?
A screwdriver. The Amador mounts with through-bolts on a standard bored door and no drilling is required if the existing prep is 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, since the latch adjusts to both.
19) Which solid brass handlesets compare with the Kwikset Amador for an entry door?
Deltana offers several solid brass entry handlesets: the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann and the 825871 Kingston, all entry function. The 810871 Montego handleset lists a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. The Kwikset Amador 687AMDLIP-S is a residential single cylinder exterior handleset and comes in Satin Nickel, Satin Chrome, Bright Chrome and Matte Black.
