Kwikset 740TPLMDT-15S – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset Tripoli 740TPL lever fit a 2-3/8 inch backset door prep, or do I need 2-3/4?
Either one. The 6AL latch shipped with the Tripoli lever has an adjustable backset that sets to 2-3/8 inches or 2-3/4 inches, which covers both standard residential door preps. You adjust it on the latch itself before you drop it in the edge bore, no separate part to order.
2) Do I have to order the Kwikset Tripoli entry lever handed for a left or right hand door?
No. The Tripoli lever is fully reversible and installs on right hand or left hand doors as supplied, so property managers stocking spares only need one part number for the whole building.
3) Can I re-key this Kwikset entry lever to the keys I already use on the rest of the property?
SmartKey Security lets you re-key the lock yourself in seconds without pulling the cylinder, and it works with either the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the Schlage SC1 keyway. If your existing property keys are KW1 or SC1, you can bring this lock onto that key rather than issuing new ones.
4) My door edge has a square corner faceplate mortise, will this latch match or do I have to chisel it out?
The 6AL latch comes with three interchangeable faceplates: round corner, square corner, and a drive-in collar. Match the square corner plate to your existing mortise and you install without recutting the edge. The drive-in collar covers doors bored with no faceplate mortise at all.
5) Is the Kwikset Tripoli keyed lever strong enough for a commercial or school opening?
No, it is built as a residential entry lock. It is ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and rated Grade AAA for residential security, durability and finish, which suits apartment and house entry doors. For an institutional or high traffic commercial opening, look at a Grade 1 cylindrical lever such as the Falcon K series or the Corbin Russwin CL3100 series instead.
6) What is a comparable keyed entry lever if the Kwikset Tripoli 740TPL is not the right fit for a commercial opening?
The Kwikset Tripoli lever with Midtown rose is a residential ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 keyed entry lockset with SmartKey re-keying. For a commercial corridor or tenant entry, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical lever in entry/office function. Both are keyed entry levers like the Tripoli but are built for commercial door schedules rather than residential use.
7) Is the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever a substitute for the Kwikset 740TPL Tripoli?
They serve the same keyed entry opening but key differently. The Cal-Royal AG00 is an entrance lever built around a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different with a 2-3/8 inch backset, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Kwikset Tripoli uses SmartKey Security, which the owner can re-key in seconds and which accepts Kwikset KW1 or Schlage SC1 keyway options, and its latch adjusts between 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset. If a building is already keyed to a Schlage C system, the AG00 drops into that system directly.
8) What should I use instead of the Tripoli entry lever on a door that needs to stay locked from the outside at all times?
The Tripoli 740TPL locks with an interior turn piece, so anyone inside can leave it unlocked. For a storage or equipment room that must stay secured, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked and requires a key every time.
9) How does the Kwikset Tripoli lever lock from the inside, with a button or a thumbturn?
A turn piece on the interior rose locks it. Key from the outside, turn piece inside, which is the standard keyed entry arrangement for an exterior door. There is no pushbutton to remember to pop.
10) Does a strike plate come with the Kwikset 740TPL Tripoli entry set?
Yes, a full lip round corner strike (RCS) ships in the box along with the 6AL latch. If your frame is prepped for a square corner or T strike, that plate is not included and you would reuse the existing one.
11) I need a keyed entry lever but not Kwikset SmartKey, what else is comparable?
Several keyed entry levers cover the same function. The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock fitting 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry lever. The trade-off against the Tripoli is that none of those re-key in seconds the way SmartKey does.
12) What do I order for the interior doors so they match this Tripoli entry lever?
The 740TPL is keyed entry only, for exterior doors where you want key control. Bedrooms and baths need a privacy function and halls and closets need passage, so those are separate part numbers in the same Tripoli lever and Midtown rose trim. If you are matching trim across a whole unit, order by function and keep the lever and rose designation the same.
13) I need a lever that matches the Tripoli style but on an interior door that does not lock. What should I order?
The Tripoli 740TPL is a keyed entry function with an interior turn piece, so it is not used on hall and closet doors. For a non-locking interior opening, the Bravura Atlanta round trim passage leverset and the Bravura Orlando round trim passage leverset are both Grade 2 passage function levers with round rose trim similar in shape to the Midtown rose. The Callan Asheville is another Grade 3 passage leverset offered in satin nickel, which matches one of the Tripoli finishes.
14) Will a Baldwin Estate 5103 lever work in place of the Kwikset Tripoli 740TPL on a front door?
Not directly. The Baldwin Estate 5103 with 5048 rose is catalogued in passage, privacy, and half dummy functions, none of which are keyed. The Kwikset Tripoli 740TPL is a keyed entry lockset, so an Estate 5103 passage or privacy lever would leave the entry door without key control. The Baldwin 5103 half dummy is also handed, offered as left hand and right hand versions, while the Tripoli lever is fully reversible for right or left handed doors.
15) I want a keyed entry lever with no keys to hand out to tenants. What is the alternative to the Kwikset Tripoli SmartKey?
The Tripoli 740TPL is a key-operated entry lock with SmartKey re-keying, so turnover still means re-keying between tenants. Keyless alternatives in lever format include the Delaney LP250 Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset, and the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock, which is ADA compliant and fits doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch. The Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors with an adjustable backset.
16) Is there a heavier duty lever than the Kwikset Tripoli 740TPL for a high traffic multifamily entry?
The Tripoli 740TPL is certified ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and is a residential lockset. For higher cycle openings the Dexter C1000 series offers Grade 1 cylindrical lever locks for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch in classroom and classroom security functions, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever that is fire rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors in passage function. The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated passage lever covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
17) For a bedroom or bathroom door, is the Tripoli 740TPL the right Kwikset lever?
No. The Tripoli 740TPL is a keyed entry lock intended for exterior doors where keyed entry and security is needed. A bath or bedroom door takes a privacy function instead: the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 with 5048 rose is also offered in privacy function for a more decorative interior look.
18) What finishes does the Kwikset Tripoli lever with Midtown rose come in?
Three: Satin Nickel, Bright Chrome, and Matte Black. The Midtown rose is a round trim, so if you are matching other openings in a unit, check the rose shape as well as the finish.
19) What is the antimicrobial coating on this Kwikset lever, and where is it applied?
Microban antimicrobial product protection is built into the hardware, and Kwikset states it keeps door hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. It is a common ask on multi-family and healthcare-adjacent housing turnovers where touch surfaces get specified.
20) What tools do I need to install the Kwikset Tripoli SmartKey lever on an already bored door?
A screwdriver. On a door already bored for a standard cylindrical lockset the Tripoli goes in in minutes, since the latch adjusts between the 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets and carries the faceplate options to match the edge prep.
21) What matches the Tripoli lever on a closet or pantry door that only needs a fixed handle?
A dummy lever is the right part where there is no latch. The Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, the BEST 7KC series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed medium duty dummy lever, and the BEST 9K series 1DT single dummy trim is the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent. Emtek also offers its Arts and Crafts and Cortina levers as dummy pairs. None of these have a latch or key, unlike the Tripoli 740TPL which ships as a keyed entry set with a 6AL latch and full lip round strike.
22) What entry lever is comparable to the Kwikset Tripoli if I want a decorative rather than contemporary look?
The Tripoli lever pairs with the round Midtown rose and is offered in satin nickel, bright chrome, and matte black. For a more traditional entry lever, Deltana offers the 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant, and 6431 Linstead levers in entry function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the 5851 Claremont lever is also an entry function set. These are decorative entry levers rather than SmartKey re-keyable sets.
