Kwikset KWI-730PVLRCT Prava Lever with Rectangular Rose Privacy Door Lock with 6AL Latch and RCS Strike

Either one. The 6AL latch shipped with the Prava privacy set is adjustable from 2-3/8 inches to 2-3/4 inches, so it covers both standard residential door preparations without ordering a different latch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore, set the latch, and go.

Fully reversible. The Prava lever installs on right hand and left hand doors without any conversion, so a property manager buying a dozen of them for bedroom and bath doors doesn't have to count handing per opening.

Privacy is the correct function for a bathroom or bedroom. The Prava locks by pressing a push button on the inside lever, with no key and no keyway on the outside. If you want a door that latches but never locks (a closet, a hallway, a pantry), you want passage function instead, like the Bravura Atlanta or Falcon B101 passage leversets. If you need a key on the outside for an exterior or office door, privacy is the wrong function entirely.

Yes, the Prava lever meets ADA/ANSI A117.1 requirements, which is the accessibility standard that drives lever handles instead of knobs on interior doors. It is also ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certified.

No extra part needed. The 6AL latch comes with three interchangeable faceplates: round corner, square corner, and a drive-in collar. That covers a factory-bored door with either corner prep, or a door with no faceplate mortise at all, where the drive-in collar is used. An RCS strike is included with the set.

Residential. The Prava privacy lever is a Grade 2 residential leverset built for interior bedroom and bath doors in homes and apartments. For a commercial corridor, classroom wing, or anything taking institutional traffic, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical lock such as the Corbin Russwin CL3110 or the Falcon K101, or a Grade 2 commercial line like the Hager 2540 privacy lock with the Withnell lever.

The Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever is a Grade 2 cylindrical privacy lock, the closest lever-style privacy match to the Kwikset Prava, which is also ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and carries a privacy push-button on the interior. The Hager 2540 fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is another lever privacy option if a decorative round rose suits the door better than the Prava rectangular rose.

A closet or hall door takes a passage function, which latches but never locks. The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever uses the same 5048 rose as the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever, so a bedroom and closet pair match visually. In a commercial passage lever, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with the Withnell design, matching the Hager 2540 privacy lock in the same family. The Kwikset Prava itself is a privacy function only, so the closet needs a separate passage set.

The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy bed/bath cylindrical lock that is fire rated and fits doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch thick, though it uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever. For a lever in heavier commercial duty, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock, fire rated, covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, but it is passage function with no locking. The Kwikset Prava is a residential product, so a fire-rated commercial opening should be specified from the commercial lines.

Dummy and passage levers are the common mistake. The Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 single dummy trim lever - a dummy is a fixed pull with no latch at all, so it will not close a bathroom door. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage function lever and the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 passage lever, both of which latch but have no locking mechanism. The Kwikset Prava locks by a push button on the interior side, which is what a bedroom or bathroom needs.

The Prava privacy set is a locking function only, so a closet or hall door needs a passage lever. Kwikset builds the Prava in passage and dummy functions with the same rectangular rose, which is the clean match. If you are cross-shopping brands, the Baldwin Estate 5103 comes as privacy, passage, and half dummy in both hands off one rose, which lets you run a whole floor on one trim design.

Screwdriver only, a few minutes per door, on a standard bored preparation. There is no special tooling and no template drilling if the door is already prepped, because the latch adjusts between the 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets and ships with the faceplate options for round corner, square corner, or drive-in.

For a keyed lever on the same style of interior or entry door, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Kwikset Prava is a non-keyed privacy set, so neither accepts a key from the outside.

The Baldwin Estate 5103 lever with the 5048 rose is the decorative option, offered in privacy, passage, and handed half dummy versions - the Baldwin Estate 5103 left hand half dummy and right hand half dummy are ordered by hand. The Emtek Classic Brass Cortina lever dummy pair and the Emtek Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair are decorative dummy sets for inactive or closet doors. The Kwikset Prava is fully reversible and installs to either hand without ordering by side.

The Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the widest range among comparable levers. The Lockey 1150 keypad lever set covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 2835 keyless lever lock covers 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch. The Deltana 6201 Manchester lever entry covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Kwikset Prava latch adjusts between 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset to fit standard door preparations.

The Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in a satin nickel finish and the Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Grade 3 is a lighter-duty certification than the ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 the Kwikset Prava carries, and none of these three is a privacy function, so a bedroom or bath door still needs a privacy set.

The Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in passage function, fitting 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance, fitting 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors. The Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock at Grade 2, and Emtek offers a Classic keypad leverset. The Kwikset Prava meets ADA/ANSI A117.1 requirements but locks only from the inside by push button, with no code entry from the corridor side.

An asylum or institutional function is the usual specification there. The Dexter C1000 Series asylum lock is Grade 1 with an F87 asylum function, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum, institution and utility function lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder in Schlage C keyway. The Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit rated Grade 1 with an apartment exit and public toilet function. The Kwikset Prava has no outside key override.

Four: Satin Nickel, Satin Brass, Matte Black, and a two-tone Matte Black with Satin Brass. If you are matching a run of doors in a building, the two-tone is the one to be careful with, since it will not read the same as a straight Matte Black set on the adjacent opening.

The Prava lever carries Microban antimicrobial product protection, which Kwikset states keeps the hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. It is built into the finish rather than applied as a coating you reapply. Worth specifying in multi-family, hospitality, or healthcare interiors where touched surfaces get scrutiny.
