Kwikset 740PSKRDT-26DS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Kwikset Pismo entry knob handed, or does one lock work on both left and right hand doors?
Universal handing. The Pismo entry knobset installs on both right hand and left hand doors, so there's no left/right version to specify when you order. That's the reason it works well as a fleet standard for a landlord or maintenance shop buying several at once, since one part number covers every swing in the building.
2) Can I rekey the Kwikset Pismo SmartKey lock myself to match my other doors?
Yes. SmartKey Security is a self-rekey system, so you can rekey the Pismo entry knob in seconds with the tool and your existing key rather than pulling the cylinder. It accepts either the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the Schlage SC1 keyway, which is what lets you bring it onto a key system you already run in the building.
3) My existing doors are keyed on Schlage keys. Will this Kwikset knob work on that key system?
It can. SmartKey on the Pismo knob is compatible with the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the Schlage SC1 keyway, so a door already running SC1 keys can be brought onto the same key without swapping the cylinder for another brand's. Pick the keyway to match the keys you already carry.
4) Will the latch on this Kwikset Pismo knob fit my door's existing latch prep?
The included 6AL latch ships with three interchangeable faceplates: round corner, square corner, and a drive-in collar. That covers the three common edge preps, so whether the old latch was radius corner, square corner mortised, or a drive-in with no faceplate at all, you can match it without chiselling the edge of the door. An RCS strike is included for the frame side.
5) Is the Kwikset Pismo entry knob suitable for a commercial corridor or high traffic building?
It's a residential product. The Pismo entry knobset is built for homes and apartment interiors, entry doors and main doors. For heavy commercial traffic you want a heavy duty cylindrical lock instead, like the BEST 8K Series entrance knob lock (Grade 1, heavy duty) or the Falcon X101 with an interchangeable core, which takes doors from 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches thick.
6) What is a comparable keyed entry knob to the Kwikset Pismo SmartKey knob if I want a Kwikset keyway without the SmartKey rekey feature?
The Cal-Royal BER00 is an entrance/office knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway, ANSI/BHMA Grade 3, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. It keys into the same KW1-style system the Pismo SmartKey lock accepts, but the rekeying is done at the cylinder in the conventional way rather than with the SmartKey tool. The Pismo keeps owner-performed rekeying to either a Kwikset (KW1) or Schlage (SC1) key.
7) The Pismo knob is a residential entry lock. What should I use on a commercial opening that needs a keyed knob instead?
For commercial duty, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the BEST 8K Series entrance function knob is also Grade 1 heavy duty. A Grade 2 commercial option is the Sargent 6G04 storeroom knob or the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Kwikset Pismo is a residential keyed entry knob with SmartKey rekeying.
8) What is the difference between this entry knob and a passage or privacy knob?
The Pismo is a keyed entry lock, meant for doors that need to lock and be opened with a key from outside. If the door is a hall or closet door that only needs to latch, a passage set such as the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob is the right function. For a bath or bedroom that needs a thumbturn but no key, use a privacy set like the Dexter C2000 privacy knob or the Cal-Royal BER20. Ordering an entry lock for a bathroom just means an unnecessary cylinder.
9) What other keyed entry knobs could I use instead of the Kwikset Pismo if I don't need SmartKey?
SmartKey self-rekeying is the Pismo's main draw; without it, several keyed entry knobs cover the same door. The Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office knob is Grade 3 and already cut to a Kwikset keyway, fitting doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. Pamex FTF Baron entrance/office is another Grade 3 option in the same thickness range. If you want a stouter unit, the Dexter C2000 entry/office ball knob is Grade 2 over 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) Does the Pismo knob come with the strike plate, or do I need to buy that separately?
Both the latch and the strike are in the box. The set ships with the 6AL latch and an RCS strike, so nothing additional is needed for the frame side on a standard prep.
11) I need the same knob style on interior doors that do not need a key. What matches the Pismo entry knob?
For non-keyed openings alongside a keyed entry, Pamex offers the Baron FTF family in matching styling: FTF30 passage and FTF10 privacy, both Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Dexter's C2000 Series also runs a matched set with passage and privacy ball knobs at Grade 2. The Kwikset Pismo covers the keyed entry function with SmartKey rekeying.
12) Is a Schlage F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob an equivalent swap for the Kwikset Pismo entry knob?
Both are residential-grade cylindrical knob products. The Schlage F500 Plymouth/Georgian is sold as a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so it bundles more than one function in the box. The Kwikset Pismo is a single keyed entry knob with a 6AL latch, RCS strike, universal handing, and SmartKey rekeying to a KW1 or SC1 key. If the building is already keyed to Kwikset, the Pismo stays in that keyway family.
13) Which knobs look similar to the Pismo entry knob but will not lock a door?
Dummy knobs share the round rose appearance but have no latch and no cylinder. Examples include the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, the Schlage A170 single dummy trim, the Bravura Biloxi round trim dummy knobset, and the Omnia 434/0 egg-shaped single dummy. None of these secure an opening. The Kwikset Pismo is a keyed entry knob with a latch and strike.
14) What entry knob should I use if the door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
Deltana's entry knobs cover heavier doors: the 3381 Egg Knob and 6171 Round Knob entry sets are rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thickness. On the commercial side, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office knob also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 knobset goes to 2-1/4 inch. These are alternatives when the opening falls outside standard residential door thickness.
15) Are there other Grade 2 keyed entry knobsets besides the Kwikset Pismo?
Yes. The Callan Edgewood and Callan Roland are Grade 2 entrance knobsets, and the Dexter C2000 Series entry/office ball knob is Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Kwikset Pismo is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certified with SmartKey rekeying and universal handing, and comes in Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Satin Chrome, Bright Chrome, Satin Brass, and Matte Black.
16) Is there a keyless alternative to the Kwikset Pismo SmartKey knob for a door where I do not want to hand out keys?
The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick. It uses a code rather than a cylinder. The Kwikset Pismo takes a physical key and lets the owner rekey it in seconds to a Kwikset (KW1) or Schlage (SC1) key.
17) Does the Kwikset Pismo work on a fire-rated door, or should I look at something else?
For openings where a fire rating has to be documented, the Falcon W101 Grade 2 medium duty passage knob with 2-3/4 inch backset and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset with interchangeable core are both fire rated. The Kwikset Pismo is a residential keyed entry knob intended for entrances and main doors.
18) What finishes does the Kwikset Pismo round rose entry knob come in?
Six finishes: Satin Nickel, Venetian Bronze, Matte Black, Bright Chrome, Satin Chrome, and Satin Brass. Satin Nickel and Venetian Bronze are the usual matches for existing residential trim packages, and Matte Black for newer builds.
19) Do I need special tools to install the Kwikset Pismo knob, or can my maintenance tech do it?
A screwdriver is all it takes. The Pismo entry knobset is a cylindrical lock that drops into a standard bored door and installs in a few minutes, latch and strike included, which is why it's a practical unit-turn replacement for a property maintenance crew.
20) What are decorative solid brass alternatives to the Pismo round rose entry knob?
For a more traditional look, the Deltana 6901 Portland Knob entry set fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with 5048 rose is offered in passage with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike. Emtek's Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown and Providence knobs are dummy pairs only. The Kwikset Pismo pairs a round rose with a keyed entry function and comes in six finishes including Venetian Bronze and Satin Brass.
21) I am buying knobs for a multi-unit turn. Is there a multi-pack alternative to ordering Pismo knobs individually?
The Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is sold as a 6-pack with adjustable backset, which suits repeat interior openings. The Kwikset Pismo is a keyed entry knob with SmartKey, which lets a property manager rekey units on turnover without pulling the lock, and comes in six finishes so a building can be standardized on one look.
