Kwikset 740TDL-15S – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset Trafford 740TDL SmartKey entry lever fit a 2-3/8 inch or a 2-3/4 inch backset door?
Both. The 6AL latch that ships with the Trafford entry lever is adjustable from 2-3/8 inches to 2-3/4 inches, so it drops into either of the standard residential door preps without ordering a different latch.
2) Do I have to order the Trafford lever handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The Trafford lever is fully reversible and installs on right hand or left hand doors, so one part number covers both swings across a building.
3) Can I key the Trafford SmartKey lock to my existing house keys?
SmartKey Security lets you re-key the cylinder yourself in seconds, and it works with either the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the SC1 keyway. If your existing keys are KW1 or SC1, you can re-key this lock to match them. Two keys come in the box.
4) If I'm buying several Trafford entry levers for one building, can they all use the same key?
Yes. Keying is a required choice at order time: keyed different, or keyed alike so a single key opens every lock in the group. For a rental property or a set of exterior doors on one unit, keyed alike is the one to pick.
5) Is the Kwikset Trafford lever strong enough for a commercial entrance?
It is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 certified, but Kwikset lists it as a residential product. For homes, apartments, and light multi-family exterior doors it is the right class of lock. A commercial entrance under heavy traffic or a code-driven spec usually calls for a Grade 1 cylindrical or mortise lock instead.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Kwikset Trafford 740TDL-S keyed entry lever from another brand?
The Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is the nearest match. Like the Trafford, it is an entrance function keyed unit and is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2, the same grade the Trafford carries. The Schlage F60 fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The difference is keying: the Trafford uses SmartKey Security, letting you re-key it yourself in seconds on either the Kwikset KW1 or Schlage SC1 keyway, while the F60 is a conventional cylinder re-keyed by a locksmith.
7) I need a handleset for an interior or decorative door where no key is required - what should I use instead of the Trafford entry lock?
The Trafford 740TDL-S is built for exterior doors where keyed entry and security is needed, so it is the wrong function for a non-keyed opening. For a non-keyed entry look, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona handleset with Seville lever is an entrance function unit without a key cylinder, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. If the door does not latch at all and you only need matching trim, the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever is a dummy handleset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
8) My door is thicker than standard - what handleset works if the Kwikset Trafford does not fit?
The Trafford 740TDL-S latch has an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset to fit standard door preparations, but for unusually thick slabs look at units that publish a wider thickness range. The Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial single cylinder handleset with Eleganti knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure standalone touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset also covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset spans 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
9) Is a Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry trim a substitute for the Kwikset Trafford 740TDL-S?
No. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is mortise trim, offered in single cylinder and double cylinder entry versions for 1-3/4 inch doors, and it requires a mortise lock body and a mortise pocket in the door. The Trafford 740TDL-S is a bored tubular entry lever with a 6AL latch and RCS strike that installs in a standard cylindrical prep with just a screwdriver. They are not interchangeable without changing the door preparation.
10) For a multi-family door that needs a deadbolt plus a lever, is the Kwikset Trafford enough or do I need something else?
The Trafford 740TDL-S is a single keyed entry lever that locks from an interior turn piece; it does not include a separate deadbolt. If the opening needs a deadbolt combined with lever trim, the Schlage Residential JI18/19 interconnected passage lock with keyed deadbolt and Torino lever is Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset in entrance function.
11) Does the Trafford entry lever lock with a key from inside, or a thumbturn?
Inside, it locks with a turn piece. Outside is keyed. That means no key is needed to get out, which is what you want on a bedroom-to-garage or unit entry door.
12) What faceplate options come with the 6AL latch on this Kwikset lever?
Three interchangeable faceplates ship with the latch: round corner, square corner, and a drive-in collar. So whether the existing mortise in the door edge is radius cut, square cut, or has no faceplate mortise at all, you can match it without routing.
13) What is a comparable keyed entry set to the Kwikset Trafford if I want a full handleset with a gripped exterior handle?
The Trafford is a lever on both sides, not a handleset. If you want the tall exterior grip plate look, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is a Grade 2 option covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Master Lock HDLB Series Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset is another entrance-function choice.
14) I need an entry set for a 2 inch thick door. Will the Kwikset Trafford work?
For thicker doors, look at the Weslock 1411 Traditionale colonial handleset, which covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, or the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
15) Do I need a locksmith to install the Kwikset Trafford entry lever?
No. It installs with a screwdriver in a standard prepped door, and the RCS strike and adjustable latch are included. The re-keying is also owner-done through SmartKey, so a property manager can rotate keys between tenants without a service call.
16) If I want keyless or app-controlled entry instead of the Kwikset Trafford's keyed cylinder, what are the options?
The Trafford 740TDL-S is a mechanical keyed entry lever with an interior turn piece and two keys supplied. For electronic entry on a similar handleset format, the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset offers Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the BYRD256 CBARX Assure key free touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield passage handleset is Wi-Fi for the same thickness range. Those are deadbolt-based systems rather than a keyed lever, so the door prep and interior trim differ from the Trafford.
17) Which handlesets besides the Kwikset Trafford have an adjustable backset for jobs where door prep varies?
The Trafford 740TDL-S latch adjusts from 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch and includes round corner, square corner, and drive-in faceplates. Among comparable handlesets, the Sure-Loc Aspen AN507 single cylinder keyed entry handleset, the Sure-Loc Madison MA507 keyed entry handleset, the Sure-Loc Alta AT507 tubular handleset, and the Sure-Loc Coral CR507 all carry adjustable backsets, which is useful when you are stocking one part for mixed existing preps.
18) I want a lever rather than a knob on an entry handleset - which comparable products match the Kwikset Trafford in that respect?
The Trafford 740TDL-S uses a fully reversible lever that installs on right or left handed doors. The Schlage Residential F60 Addison pairs a keyed entry handleset with an Accent lever, and the JE285 Barcelona pairs with a Seville lever. If a knob is acceptable, the Baldwin Wesley handleset is offered with an Alcott knob or a Carnaby knob, both entrance function, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder uses a Hudson knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
19) Are the Emtek 3002 Memphis and similar mortise entrance handlesets alternatives to the Kwikset Trafford entry lock?
They serve a different purpose. The Emtek 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose, and 3006 Manhattan brass mortise entrance handlesets are dummy function, meaning they are surface trim with no latching or keying. The Trafford 740TDL-S is a keyed entry lock with a turn piece on the interior and two keys supplied. Use the Emtek dummy units on an inactive leaf or a door pulled shut by a separate mechanism, not as a replacement for a locking entry door.
20) What finishes does the Kwikset Trafford entry lever come in?
Three: Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, and Matte Black. Pick the one that matches the deadbolt and hinges already on the opening.
21) Is there an antimicrobial option on Kwikset exterior levers for healthcare or hospitality use?
The Trafford lever carries Microban antimicrobial product protection, which Kwikset states keeps the hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. That is built into the finish, not an add-on to specify.
22) If I want keyless entry on the same style of opening instead of a keyed lever, what are my options?
For keyless, the Yale Real Living Assure line covers it: the BYRD226NRRX standalone touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset, or the BYRD226CBARX with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Both are listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, so check your door thickness before swapping from the Kwikset, which uses a 6AL latch sized for standard residential preps.
23) I need a satin nickel keyed entry handleset as a simpler alternative to the Kwikset Trafford - what is comparable?
The Trafford 740TDL-S is available in Satin Nickel among its finishes. The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset comes in a satin nickel finish and is an entry function unit for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. It is a conventional cylinder, so re-keying is done at the cylinder rather than with the Trafford's SmartKey self re-key feature.
