Kwikset 720KAL-15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Katella 720KAL fit a 2-3/8 inch backset door, or do I need 2-3/4?
Either one. The 6AL latch supplied with the Katella lever is adjustable from 2-3/8 inches to 2-3/4 inches, which covers standard residential and commercial door prep, so you do not pick a backset when you order.
2) Is the Kwikset Katella lever handed? I have a left hand door.
Handing is not an issue. The Katella lever is fully reversible and installs on right hand or left hand doors, so one part number covers every opening in the building. No handing to call out on the order.
3) Does the Katella passage set meet ADA requirements for lever hardware?
Yes. The Katella 720KAL meets ADA and ANSI A117.1 requirements, and it carries ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certification. That combination is what most residential and light-commercial specs ask for on an interior passage opening.
4) My door is bored for a square corner latch faceplate. Will this latch drop in?
Yes. The Katella set ships with the 6AL latch and an RCS strike, and the latch includes two interchangeable faceplates, round corner and square corner. Swap to the square plate and it seats in an existing square-cut mortise with no chisel work.
5) Is the Kwikset Katella lever rated for a commercial building or just houses?
Kwikset lists the Katella as residential hardware, Grade 2. For apartment interiors, single family, and light traffic it is the right call. For a school, hospital corridor, or anything with heavy cycle counts, step up to a Grade 1 commercial passage lever such as the Falcon K101 or the Corbin Russwin CL3110, both Grade 1 passage sets.
6) What is the closest Grade 2 passage lever alternative to the Kwikset 720KAL Katella?
Several Grade 2 cylindrical passage levers match the Katella's grade and function. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever in the 5300 Series, and the Accentra 4601LN carries the same Grade 2 passage function with Augusta trim in the 4600 Series. The Arrow GL01 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lever with a Sierra lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever with the Withnell design covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lever with a non-handed design, comparable to the Katella's fully reversible lever.
7) What is a commercial-grade equivalent to the Kwikset 720KAL Katella passage lever for a high-traffic corridor door?
The Kwikset 720KAL Katella is a residential ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 passage leverset. For heavier commercial traffic, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lock with non-handed levers and a fire rating, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick. The Falcon T101 is another Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors with a fire rating. All three are latch-only passage function, so the door operates the same way as with the Katella.
8) I need a locking lever instead of the Kwikset 720KAL passage function - what should I order?
The Katella 720KAL is passage function only, for interior doors that need no locking. For a bed or bath door, the Hager 2540 and Baldwin Estate 5103 are offered in privacy function, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock. For a keyed opening, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 entrance lever and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt. For a classroom door, the Cal-Royal AG03 is a classroom lever with a Schlage C keyway and the Dexter C1000 is a Grade 1 classroom lever.
9) Which alternatives to the Kwikset 720KAL Katella passage lever carry a fire rating?
The Katella 720KAL is a Grade 2 passage lever meeting ADA and ANSI A117.1 requirements. When the opening is a rated door assembly, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever both carry a fire rating in passage function. Among privacy-function options, the Arrow MK02-TA is fire rated as well.
10) What is a Grade 2 equivalent to the Kwikset Katella passage lever from another brand?
Several Grade 2 passage levers cover the same function. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta and the Accentra 4601LN are Grade 2 passage/hall/closet cylindrical levers, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 non-handed passage lever, and the Hager 2510 Withnell is Grade 2 passage with a 1-3/8 to 2 inch door thickness range. Bravura also offers Grade 2 passage leversets in Atlanta, Orlando, and Tampa trims if you are matching a look rather than a spec.
11) Can I use a dummy lever in place of the Kwikset 720KAL on a door that does not latch?
No - the 720KAL Katella includes a 6AL latch and RCS strike and physically latches the door closed. On a door with a roller catch or a fixed inactive leaf, order a dummy instead: the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 non-keyed single dummy trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy, the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy lever, and the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummies are handed, sold as left hand or right hand, while the Katella lever itself is fully reversible.
12) Is there a lighter-duty passage lever than the Kwikset 720KAL Katella for low-use interior doors?
The Katella 720KAL is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 2. If a lower grade suits the opening, the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset offered in a satin nickel finish, the same finish family as one of the Katella options. Within Grade 2, the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando and Miramar passage leversets use round trim and the Bravura Tampa uses square trim, so the choice there is trim shape rather than duty.
13) What passage lever should I use if the Kwikset 720KAL backset range does not fit my door?
The Katella 720KAL latch adjusts from a 2-3/8 inch to a 2-3/4 inch backset and fits standard door preparations. If door thickness rather than backset is the constraint, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. For thicker commercial doors, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage lever is specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Design Hardware J75 and X75 passage levers are built for 1-3/4 inch doors.
14) Does anything else offer keyless code entry where the Kwikset 720KAL Katella passage lever would go?
The Katella 720KAL is a mechanical passage lever with no locking or code entry. If the door needs code access, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick, and the Lockey 2835DC adds a double combination. The Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set covering 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock if you want electronic rather than mechanical code entry.
15) I want a knob instead of the Kwikset 720KAL Katella lever - what are the options?
The Katella 720KAL is a lever trim. If the opening calls for a knob, the Arrow MK02-TA uses a Tudor knob in privacy function, the Arrow HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum function lock with a ball knob and a Schlage C keyway cylinder. Note that levers, not knobs, are what meet the ADA and ANSI A117.1 requirements the Katella is certified to.
16) What does the Microban protection on the Katella lever actually do?
The Katella levers are treated with Microban antimicrobial product protection, which Kwikset states keeps the hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. It is built into the finish, not a coating you reapply. Property managers and hospitality buyers usually ask for it on high-touch interior doors.
