Kwikset 819PTHLIP-15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Kwikset 819PTH Prescott exterior handleset come with the inside trim, or is it exterior only?
Exterior pack only. The 819PTH Prescott is a non-functioning handleset, so you get the outside grip, the deadbolt and the latch, and nothing for the interior face of the door. If you need a working interior thumbturn and knob or lever, this is not the part to order. It's meant for the second leaf of a double door, an inactive door, or a door where the operating hardware lives elsewhere.
2) Will the Kwikset Prescott handleset fit my existing door prep, or do I need to re-drill?
The latch has an adjustable backset that covers 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch, which are the two backsets used on standard residential door prep, so it drops onto an existing bore either way without re-drilling. The deadbolt throws 1 inch and ships with a round deadbolt strike, and both the latch and the deadbolt latch use a round corner faceplate, so it seats in a router-cut round mortise rather than a square one. If your current faceplates are square cornered you'll need to chisel the corners or swap the strike plate.
3) Can I re-key the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH myself to match the other doors in the building?
Yes, it uses SmartKey Security, which lets you re-key the cylinder yourself in seconds with the learn tool and a working key, no cylinder removal and no locksmith. It's compatible with the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the Schlage SC1 keyway, so a property manager already keyed to either of those can bring this door onto the existing key without changing the rest of the fleet. Two keys come in the box.
4) I need a keyed entry handleset, not a dummy - what should I order instead of the Prescott 819PTH?
The Prescott 819PTH is a non-functioning exterior handleset, so it will not accept a key in service. For keyed entry on a residential door, the Schlage F60 Addison Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Handleset with Accent Lever is a Grade 2 entrance-function handleset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest Handleset with Hudson Knob is a single cylinder handleset covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington Single Cylinder Handleset in Satin Nickel is an entry function unit for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Kwikset 819PTH Prescott exterior dummy handleset from another brand?
The Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob is the nearest match in function, carrying a Dummy product function like the Prescott, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever is the same dummy function with a lever instead of a knob on the interior side, and covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. Both differ from the Prescott in that the Prescott is an exterior-only pack with a non-functioning handleset and a Grade AAA rated deadbolt component, while the Weslock units are handleset-plus-interior-trim sets.
6) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Prescott 819PTH handleset work, or do I need something else?
The Prescott 819PTH latch has an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch to fit standard door preparations, but backset is the hole position, not the door thickness. For thicker doors, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial Handleset with Eleganti Knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock Standalone Touchscreen Deadbolt with Ridgefield Handleset also covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Among dummy-function options, the Weslock 6695 Belmont and Weslock 2815 Hillcrest both list 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
7) Are the Emtek 3002 Memphis and Emtek 3004 Hamilton dummy handlesets a substitute for the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH?
They share the dummy function but not the door prep. The Emtek 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose, and 3006 Manhattan are brass mortise entrance handlesets in dummy function, so they are built around a mortise pocket in the door edge. The Kwikset Prescott 819PTH uses a bored preparation with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a round corner faceplate. Swapping between the two means changing the door prep, not just the trim.
8) Is the Kwikset Prescott handleset deadbolt rated for security, and what grade?
The deadbolt is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified, and the handleset carries the BHMA Grade AAA designation, the highest residential rating for security, durability and finish. Paired with the 1 inch deadbolt throw, that's the top of the residential range rather than a light-duty entry set. Worth noting it's classified as residential hardware, not commercial.
9) What other dummy handlesets are available if the Kwikset Prescott style doesn't match my door?
Several. The Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy with New Heaven lever both cover 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. On the solid brass side, Emtek makes four brass mortise dummy handlesets, the 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan. The Kwikset Prescott differs from all of them in that it still includes a keyed, re-keyable deadbolt with a 1 inch throw, so it secures the door even though the grip does nothing.
10) How does the Kwikset Prescott compare to a smart deadbolt handleset for a rental entry?
Different problems. The Prescott is a mechanical, key-only handleset with a re-keyable SmartKey cylinder, so turnover between tenants means re-keying it by hand in seconds. If you want code or phone access instead, the Yale Real Living Assure Lock touchscreen deadbolts with the Ridgefield handleset cover that: the BYRD226NRRX is a standalone touchscreen, and the BYRD226CBARX adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Both fit 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, so check your door thickness before switching, since that's a heavier range than standard.
11) What can I use instead of the Prescott 819PTH if I want a handleset without a keyed cylinder on the outside but still latching?
The Prescott 819PTH is a dummy, meaning the exterior handle does not operate a latch at all. If you want a handleset that actually operates but takes no key, the Schlage JE285 Barcelona Style Handleset with Seville Lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed entry function unit for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Yale BYRD256 CBARX Assure Key Free Touchscreen Deadbolt with Ridgefield Passage Handleset and Trim is another key-free approach, using a touchscreen deadbolt with a passage handleset on doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick.
12) Which handlesets carry a published ANSI/BHMA grade like the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH?
The Prescott 819PTH deadbolt is ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified and the set is certified Grade AAA for residential security, durability and finish. Among the alternatives, the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is Grade 2 with an entrance function, and the Schlage F60 Addison keyed entry handleset and Schlage JE285 Barcelona handleset are both Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a facility standardizing on a stated grade, those are the peers that publish one.
13) Is the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry trim an alternative to the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH exterior handleset?
Not a direct swap. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is entry mortise trim for 1-3/4 inch doors, offered in single cylinder and double cylinder versions, and it dresses a mortise lock body rather than working as a standalone bored handleset. The Kwikset Prescott 819PTH is a dummy exterior handleset with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a 1 inch deadbolt throw with a round deadbolt strike. If the door is prepped for a mortise lock, the Baldwin trim is the right family; if it is bored, the Prescott is.
14) I want a solid brass handleset instead of the Kwikset Prescott - what are my options?
Deltana offers several solid brass entry handlesets: the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann, and the 825871 Kingston, all in entry function. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. These are keyed entry sets, where the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH is a non-functioning dummy exterior handleset, so the choice affects whether the outside handle operates at all, not only the material.
15) The Prescott 819PTH is rekeyable with SmartKey - what handlesets pair a handleset with an electronic deadbolt instead?
The Kwikset Prescott 819PTH uses SmartKey Security rekey technology compatible with the KW1 or SC1 keyway and ships with two keys. For an electronic deadbolt paired to a handleset, the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock combines a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield handleset on doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick, and the BYRD226NRRX is the standalone touchscreen version on the same door thickness range. The BYRD410BLERX Assure Lock 2 key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
16) What is the difference between the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH and a handleset with an interior knob or lever included?
The Prescott 819PTH is an exterior pack only, so it covers the outside face of the door and nothing on the inside. Sets that include interior trim include the Baldwin Wesley Handleset with Alcott Knob and the Baldwin Wesley Handleset with Carnaby Knob, both entrance function, and the Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. If the interior side of the opening still needs hardware, one of the paired sets covers both faces in a single order.
17) What finishes does the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH handleset come in?
Four: Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Matte Black and Bright Brass. If you're standardizing a run of units, pick the finish that matches your existing Kwikset openings, since the finish carries the same BHMA Grade AAA finish rating as the rest of the set.
18) Is the Kwikset Prescott handleset okay for a high-touch door in a shared building?
It has Microban antimicrobial product protection built into the hardware, which Kwikset states keeps the surface 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected hardware. That's a common ask on multi-family entries and shared exterior doors. It's rated for exterior use and carries the Grade AAA durability designation, though it is residential-duty hardware, not commercial.
19) What tools do I need to install a Kwikset Prescott handleset?
A screwdriver. The 819PTH installs in a few minutes on a standard pre-drilled door, and the adjustable 2-3/8 to 2-3/4 inch backset latch means no measuring or re-boring on standard prep. The round deadbolt strike is included. Kwikset publishes a drilling template and an installation guide for the handleset if you're cutting a fresh door.
20) Is the Schlage JI18/19 interconnected lock a substitute for a Prescott 819PTH handleset?
No. The Schlage JI18/19 is an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and a Torino lever in satin stainless steel, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and it is a lever-trim interconnected unit rather than a gripped handleset. The Kwikset Prescott 819PTH is a dummy handleset with a thumbpiece-style exterior grip and a 1 inch deadbolt throw. They present very differently on the door face even though both address a deadbolt and a latch on the same opening.
21) Which alternatives to the Kwikset Prescott 819PTH come in satin nickel or matte black?
The Kwikset Prescott 819PTH exterior handleset comes in Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Matte Black, and Bright Brass. Among the alternatives, the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington Single Cylinder Handleset is offered in a satin nickel finish and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Schlage JI18/19 interconnected lock comes in satin stainless steel for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Matching an existing fleet of doors is usually easier by staying within one collection than by matching finish names across brands.
