Kwikset SL5000WI-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Winston SL5000WI lever work with a 2-3/8 or a 2-3/4 inch backset?
Both. The latch on the Winston SL5000WI is adjustable between the 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets, which are the two standard bore positions, so you don't have to measure the door before ordering. Set the latch to match the existing cross-bore and it drops into a standard door prep.
2) Is the SL5000WI Winston lever handed, or do I need to specify left or right?
No handing to specify. The Winston SL5000WI is reversible and works on a left hand or right hand door, so one part number covers every opening in a building. That matters if you're stocking spares for a portfolio of units, since you carry one SKU instead of two.
3) How does the SL5000WI Winston lever actually lock, and does it lock from the inside without a key?
Entry/office function, single cylinder. There's a turnbutton on the inside and a keyed cylinder outside, and either one locks or unlocks both levers. So a tenant can thumb the button on the way out, and a manager keys in from the corridor. There is no key cylinder on the inside face.
4) Can I get several Winston SL5000WI locks keyed alike so one key opens all of them?
Yes. Keying is selected when you order: keyed different, or keyed alike so a single key runs every lock in the group. There's also an optional field for a key code if you're adding to an existing system and need the locks cut to a code you already carry. The cylinder is a KW 5 pin, so it keys into a Kwikset KW keyway system.
5) Is the Safe Lock Winston lever rated for a fire door?
The SL5000WI meets a UL 3 hour fire rating for all UL functions, UL reference #R7860. It is also ANSI A156.5/BHMA Grade 3 and ADA compliant, so the lever operates without tight grasping or wrist twisting. Note the Grade 3 rating is a residential duty level, not a commercial one.
6) What is an equivalent Grade 3 keyed entry lever to the Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston?
The Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever lock with a solid brass forged body and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, which matches the SL5000WI Winston's own Grade 3 rating and 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range. The Master Lock BC Series RL01 return style lever is also a Grade 3 keyed entry lockset. All three carry the same ANSI/BHMA grade and the same entry function, where the key outside and the turnbutton inside lock or unlock both levers on the Winston.
7) Which keyed entry lever holds up better than a Grade 3 residential lock on a commercial opening?
For an opening with commercial traffic, the Dexter C1000 Series entry/office lever is Grade 1 with a clutching keyed mechanism and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a medium duty Grade 2 entry/office lever. The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston is a Grade 3 residential lever set, so the Dexter and Hager options step up the ANSI/BHMA grade while keeping the same entry/office function.
8) For a classroom door, is the Winston SL5000WI keyed entry lever the right function?
No. A classroom opening calls for a classroom function, where the outside lever is locked and unlocked by key only and there is no inside turnbutton: the Dexter C1000 Series classroom lever is Grade 1, clutching and keyed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter C1000 classroom security version adds key control from the inside as well. The Cal-Royal AG03 is a classroom lever on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston is an entry/office function with a turnbutton inside, which lets an occupant lock the door without a key.
9) What keyed entry lever fits a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a thicker slab, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers all fit 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Hager 2525 Grade 2 commercial entry lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch as well. The Falcon K101 goes to 2-1/4 inch, though that one is a passage function rather than keyed.
10) I want a keyed lever on a Schlage C keyway instead of a Kwikset key - what are my options?
The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston uses a KW 5 pin cylinder. If the building is keyed to Schlage C, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is a Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever is the same 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Arrow MK33-BD-CS is another Schlage C keyway conventional cylinder lock, though on a knob in an asylum function.
11) What's another Grade 3 keyed entry lever if the Winston styling isn't right?
Two direct peers at the same duty level: the Cal-Royal AUS00 entrance/office lever is Grade 3 with a solid brass forged body and the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range, and the Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 return style keyed entry lever. The Callan Artino is another Grade 3 entrance leverset. All three are keyed entry function like the Winston, so the choice is trim design and keyway rather than how the lock behaves.
12) I need matching passage and privacy levers for the bedrooms and bathroom, not keyed. What do I order?
Stay in the Winston family so the trim matches: SL1000WI is the passage lever for hall and closet doors, SL3000WI is the privacy lever for bed and bath, SL4000WI is the push button privacy version, and SL7000WI is the half dummy for a non-turning one-sided application. The SL5000WI is only the keyed entry function.
13) What lever should I use instead of the Winston SL5000WI on an interior door that does not need a key?
On a closet, hall or interior door, a passage lever with no cylinder is the right part: the Callan Asheville CLN-AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel, matching the Grade 3 level of the Winston SL5000WI. In Grade 2, the Bravura Atlanta BVR-BV333002 and Orlando BVR-BV333602 round trim passage leversets and the Falcon B101 non-handed passage lever cover the same job. The SL5000WI itself is a keyed single cylinder entry lock, so those passage levers replace it wherever the key is not wanted.
14) I need a lever that locks from the inside for a bedroom or bathroom rather than a keyed entry - what takes the place of the Winston SL5000WI there?
A privacy lever is the correct part for a bed or bath door. The Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose covers the same function with a different trim style. The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston is an entry/office function keyed on the outside, so it is not the part for a room that only needs to lock from within.
15) Can I get the same entry function as the Winston SL5000WI without issuing keys to tenants?
Yes, with a keyless lever. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset is a keypad version of the Classic lever, and the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with ADA compliance for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick. The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston reaches the same opening with a KW 5 pin cylinder and a key, and it also complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
16) Is a knob lockset a substitute for the Winston SL5000WI lever?
For an opening that must meet ADA, no. The Arrow HK11-BB is a turn-pushbutton entrance cylindrical lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the same entrance function and the same door range as the Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston, but on a knob. The Winston is a lever set that complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act, which a round knob does not satisfy.
17) What holds up on a high abuse or vandal prone opening where a Grade 3 residential lever will not?
For abuse-prone traffic, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever lock with a fire rating for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty lever with pressure release technology. Both are passage function. On the keyed side, the Dexter C1000 asylum lock is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston is a Grade 3 residential keyed entry lever built with all-metal construction that meets a UL 3 hour fire rating for all UL functions.
18) Is the Winston SL5000WI all metal or does it have plastic internals?
All metal construction. The Winston lever is a mechanical cylindrical lockset with no electronics, which is what you want on a rental turn where the lock has to survive tenants and not batteries. If you do want keyless on the same opening, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton lever with no battery either, covering 1 3/16 to 2 inch doors.
19) Which entry lever should I use if the door is handed and I cannot use a reversible lock?
The Safe Lock SL5000WI Winston is reversible and works on left handed or right handed doors, so handing is not a concern with it. Where a handed part is required, the Baldwin Estate 5103 is sold as a left hand half dummy and a right hand half dummy with the 5048 rose, each ordered to the hand of the opening. Non-handed alternatives include the Falcon B101 and K101 levers.
