Kwikset 802TVH-26D-LIP – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Kwikset 802TVH Tavaris exterior handleset come with the interior knob or lever?
No. The 802TVH Tavaris is sold as an exterior pack only, and it's a non-functioning (dummy) handleset. You get the exterior grip and plate side. If you need a working latch and an inside trim, you're looking at the wrong configuration and will have to source the interior half separately.
2) Will the Tavaris handleset fit my existing door bore and backset?
The latch supplied with the Tavaris handleset has an adjustable backset that sets to either 2-3/8 inches or 2-3/4 inches, which are the two standard residential bore-to-edge dimensions, so it drops into standard door prep without redrilling. The latch faceplate has round corners.
3) Is the Kwikset Tavaris handleset deadbolt strong enough for an exterior entry door?
The deadbolt on the Tavaris handleset is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified and throws a full 1 inch, which is the top residential security tier and the throw depth that lets the bolt reach past the jamb into the strike and framing. Make sure your strike is prepped deep enough to take the full 1 inch bolt.
4) I need a handleset that actually locks, not a dummy - what should I order instead of the Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH?
The Tavaris 802TVH is a non-functioning handleset, so it will not lock a door. For a keyed opening, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset with an Accent lever, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick; the Sure-Loc Aspen AN507 is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset with adjustable backset; and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest is a single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH dummy handleset from another brand?
For another non-functioning handleset in a similar format, the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest is a dummy handleset paired with a New Heaven lever and covers a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, and the Weslock 6695 Belmont is a dummy handleset with an Impresa knob over the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range. The Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH is supplied as the exterior pack only in a non-functioning configuration, with a latch whose backset adjusts from 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch.
6) Are the Emtek 3002 Memphis and the Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH interchangeable dummy handlesets?
They are both dummy-function handlesets but they are not prepped the same way. The Emtek 3002 Memphis, along with the 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose, and 3006 Manhattan, are brass mortise entrance handlesets in dummy function, so the door is mortise-prepped. The Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH uses a tubular latch with a backset adjustable from 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch to suit standard bored door preparations. Check which prep the door already has before substituting.
7) What finishes does the Kwikset Tavaris handleset come in for matching other doors in a building?
Five finishes: Satin Chrome, Bright Chrome, Satin Nickel, Venetian Bronze, and Matte Black. For a property manager standardizing a block of entries, Satin Nickel and Matte Black are the usual matches to modern trim packages, Venetian Bronze to traditional.
8) Is the Kwikset Tavaris handleset approved for commercial openings?
It's a residential-duty product. The Tavaris is part of Kwikset's Signature Series and is catalogued for residential use, so for a commercial opening under a code-required hardware schedule you should be specifying commercial mortise or cylindrical hardware instead. The Grade 1 rating applies to the deadbolt itself.
9) What other dummy handlesets could I use instead of the Kwikset Tavaris?
Several dummy-function handlesets sit alongside it. Emtek's brass mortise entrance handlesets in dummy function cover the Memphis 3002, Hamilton 3004, Melrose 3005, and Manhattan 3006 if you want solid brass styling. Weslock offers the 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob and the 2815 Hillcrest dummy with New Heaven lever, both of which are listed for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
10) I'm putting hardware on a double entry door. Can I use the Tavaris on the inactive leaf?
That's exactly what a dummy exterior handleset is for. The Tavaris is non-functioning trim, so it gives the inactive leaf a grip and plate that matches the active side without operating a latch. The active leaf still needs a keyed handleset with a working deadbolt.
11) If I want a non-keyed handleset that still latches, what is the alternative to the Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH?
The Tavaris 802TVH is a non-functioning exterior handleset, so it neither latches nor locks. If you want a non-keyed handleset that still operates a latch, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function handleset, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Schlage JI18/19 is a passage-function interconnected lock with a Torino lever and a keyed deadbolt over the same door thickness range if you want passage operation with separate key control.
12) What handleset should I use on a thicker door where the Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH backset range does not help?
The Tavaris 802TVH publishes an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset for standard preps. If the door itself is thicker than typical, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial 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 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
13) I want keyless entry on the front door instead of the Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH - what are the options?
The Tavaris 802TVH is a mechanical, non-functioning exterior handleset. For an electronic front entrance, the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX pairs a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the BYRD256 CBARX is a key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield passage handleset and trim over the same range, and the BYRD256CBARX Assure Lock 2 key-free Wi-Fi version covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
14) Which handleset has a higher-rated deadbolt than the Schlage F60 Addison?
The Schlage Residential F60 Addison keyed entry handleset and the Master Lock HDLB series single cylinder deadbolt handleset are both Grade 2. The Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH handleset deadbolt is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified with a 1 inch deadbolt throw, though the Tavaris is supplied as a non-functioning exterior pack, so it is an appearance and hardware-grade decision rather than a direct functional swap.
15) Do the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont trims work as a substitute for the Kwikset Tavaris handleset?
No, they solve a different problem. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is entry mortise trim for a 1-3/4 inch door, offered in single cylinder and double cylinder versions, and it dresses a mortise lock body. The Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH is a complete non-functioning exterior handleset with a tubular latch adjustable from 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset. If you want a full Baldwin handleset instead, the Wesley 180WYH is offered in entrance function with either the Alcott or Carnaby knob.
16) Which handlesets besides the Kwikset Tavaris offer an adjustable backset for a mixed set of door preps?
The Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH latch adjusts from 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset to fit standard door preparations. Sure-Loc offers the same adjustable-backset approach across several trims: the Aspen AN507 single cylinder keyed entry, the Alta AT507 tubular handleset, the Coral CR507, and the Madison MA507 keyed entry handleset. That range is useful when you are standardizing across buildings with inconsistent bore backsets.
17) Can one person install the Tavaris handleset without special tools?
Yes. A screwdriver does it. The Tavaris exterior handleset installs in minutes, and since the latch backset adjusts between the two standard settings there's no boring or chiseling if the door is already prepped.
18) Is there a smart lock handleset option if I want keyless entry instead?
Yes, if you want to skip keys entirely. The Yale Real Living Assure Lock line pairs a touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield handleset: BYRD226CBARX adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, BYRD226NRRX is standalone with no network, and BYRD256 CBARX is key-free with Wi-Fi. Those Ridgefield sets are listed for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, a thicker range than typical residential entries, so check your slab.
19) What solid brass handleset alternatives are there to the Kwikset Tavaris?
The Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH comes in Satin Chrome, Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Bright Chrome, and Matte Black. If you specifically want solid brass construction, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover, 815871 St. Ann, and 825871 Kingston handlesets, all solid brass in entry function. Note the Deltana units are entry function while the Tavaris exterior pack is non-functioning.
20) Is the Pamex Lexington FS7P31 a match for the Kwikset Tavaris in satin nickel?
The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder handleset in a satin nickel finish, entry function, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Kwikset Tavaris 802TVH is also offered in Satin Nickel, but it is a non-functioning exterior handleset rather than a keyed entry unit, so the two match on finish family rather than on function.
