Kwikset CP818PGHPSKRDT-15S – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Kwikset Prague handleset fit my existing door prep, or do I need to redrill?
The Prague handleset's latch has an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch, so it drops into either of the two standard residential bore preps without redrilling. Set the latch to match your existing cross-bore centerline and the handleset mounts to the same holes.
2) Can I key this Kwikset Prague handleset to match the Schlage keys I already use in the building?
Yes, within limits. The SmartKey cylinder can be re-keyed by hand in seconds and accepts either the Kwikset KW1 keyway or the Schlage SC1 keyway, so a property manager standardized on SC1 keys can bring this opening onto the same key. It ships with 2 keys.
3) Is this a single cylinder or double cylinder entry handleset, and what is on the inside?
Single cylinder. Key outside, thumbturn inside, with a Pismo knob on round rose trim for the interior. If you need key access from both sides, such as a door with glass beside it, this is not the part; a double cylinder trim like the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont double cylinder entry mortise trim covers that case.
4) Will the 1 inch deadbolt throw work with my existing strike and jamb?
The deadbolt throws a full 1 inch, which needs a strike pocket bored to that depth in the jamb. A round deadbolt strike is included, so if your current strike is square-cornered or a different cutout you may need to chisel the mortise to suit. The deadbolt latch also ships with two interchangeable faceplates, round corner and square corner, so it can match the existing faceplate mortise either way.
5) Is there an electronic alternative to the Kwikset Prague handleset if I want keypad entry?
Yes. Yale Real Living offers the BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock standalone touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset and the BYRD226CBARX with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, both for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The BYRD256 CBARX is a key free touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield passage handleset on Wi-Fi. The Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT is fully mechanical and keyed, using SmartKey Security that lets you re-key the cylinder yourself and works with KW1 or SC1 keyway options, and it ships with 2 keys.
6) What is the closest single cylinder keyed entry handleset to the Kwikset Prague with Pismo knob from another brand?
The Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is the nearest equivalent from another brand - it is an entrance function handleset in the F Series rated Grade 2, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT is a single cylinder exterior handleset with a Pismo knob, an adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset latch and a 1 inch deadbolt throw. The main difference in the trim: the Kwikset pairs the exterior grip with an interior knob on a round rose, while the Addison uses a lever.
7) I need a keyed handleset for a door thicker than 1-3/4 inch - what should I use instead of the Kwikset Prague?
Look at the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial handleset with Eleganti knob, a single cylinder unit that lists a door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT is built around a latch with adjustable 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backset to fit standard door preparations, so for an oversized slab the Weslock range is the one to check against the opening. Weslock also lists the 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
8) Is the Kwikset Prague handleset rated for commercial use?
No. It is a residential product, certified ANSI/BHMA Grade AAA for residential security, durability and finish. That is the top residential rating, fine for apartments, single family and multi-family unit entries, but a commercial opening on a spec calling for ANSI Grade 1 or 2 cylindrical or mortise hardware needs a different device.
9) What are the alternatives to a Kwikset SmartKey handleset if I do not want re-keyable cylinders?
Plenty of conventional keyed handlesets cover the same opening. The Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is Grade 2 and fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset in satin nickel covers the same thickness range. For thicker doors, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob lists 1-3/8 to 2 inches. What SmartKey buys you is self re-keying in seconds without pulling the cylinder, which is why turnover-heavy portfolios pick it.
10) Do I need a separate deadbolt with this handleset?
No. The Prague handleset is a keyed entry unit with the deadbolt built into the grip assembly, single cylinder with a 1 inch throw, and it ships with its latch and round deadbolt strike. Nothing else is required to secure the opening. If you only want a decorative pull with no locking, a dummy handleset such as the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob is the other route.
11) Which handleset should I use on an inactive or closet door where no lock is needed, instead of the Kwikset Prague?
Use a dummy handleset. The Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy handleset with New Heaven lever covers the same range. Emtek also lists brass mortise entrance handlesets in dummy function, including the 3002 Memphis and 3006 Manhattan. The Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT is a keyed exterior handleset with a SmartKey cylinder and 1 inch deadbolt throw, so it is the wrong choice for a non-latching decorative opening.
12) What is the difference between the Kwikset Prague handleset and the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont mortise trim?
They are not interchangeable. 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 prepared into the door edge. The Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT is a complete tubular exterior handleset that comes with its own RCAL latch and RCS round deadbolt strike and installs with a screwdriver. Choose the Baldwin only if the door is already mortise prepped.
13) Is there a simpler keyed handleset than the Kwikset Prague if I do not need SmartKey re-keying?
The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset in satin nickel is an entry function handleset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and Sure-Loc lists several keyed handlesets with adjustable backset including the Aspen AN507 and the Madison MA507. The Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT carries SmartKey Security, which lets you re-key the lock yourself in seconds using KW1 or SC1 keyway options - the feature to keep if you rotate tenants.
14) I need a handleset with no keyed cylinder for an interior-facing entry - what replaces the Kwikset Prague?
The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona style handleset with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function handleset in the J Series, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Schlage also lists the JI18/19 interconnected passage lock with keyed deadbolt and Torino lever in the same thickness range if you want passage trim with a separate keyed bolt. The Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT is a single cylinder keyed unit with a 1 inch deadbolt throw and ships with 2 keys.
15) What finishes does the Prague handleset with Pismo knob come in?
Two: Satin Nickel and Matte Black. Both carry Microban antimicrobial protection on the hardware surfaces, which keeps the handle 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces, a point that matters on high-touch multi-family and hospitality entries.
16) What tools do I need to install this handleset?
If the door is already prepped for a standard handleset, a screwdriver is all it takes. The latch adjusts between the 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets by hand, and the deadbolt faceplate swaps between round and square corner without extra parts.
17) Do the Baldwin Wesley handlesets substitute for the Kwikset Prague with Pismo knob?
The Baldwin Wesley handleset is offered with an Alcott knob or a Carnaby knob, both in entrance function, so they serve the same keyed exterior role as the Kwikset Prague CP818PGHPSKRDT with Pismo knob. The difference is the cylinder technology: the Kwikset uses SmartKey Security, re-keyable by the owner in seconds and compatible with KW1 or SC1 keyway options, and its latch adjusts between a 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset.
