Kwikset 300MNKRDT-26 Maven Knob Privacy Lock Bright Chrome

Product Description

The KWIKSET 300MNKRDT-26 is a Maven knob privacy door lock featuring a round rose trim, a 6AL latch, and an RCS strike plate, finished in Bright Chrome. Designed for interior privacy applications, this lock installs on bedroom and bathroom doors where a turn-button or push-button interior locking mechanism is required without a keyed cylinder. The round rose trim provides a clean, traditional profile. At 0.8 pounds, the hardware set is compact and suited for standard residential door prep. The Bright Chrome finish delivers a polished appearance consistent across knob, rose, and strike components.

This privacy lock is intended for interior residential doors, most commonly bedrooms and bathrooms. The privacy function allows occupants to lock the door from the inside with a simple button or turn mechanism, while an emergency release on the exterior allows access when needed. It is a common replacement or new-construction specification for interior door hardware in single-family homes, apartments, and light commercial settings where a keyed lockset is not required but privacy is needed.

Key Features

• Maven knob style with round rose trim in Bright Chrome finish
• Privacy function with interior push or turn locking and exterior emergency release
• Includes 6AL latch for standard door bore and edge prep compatibility
• RCS strike plate included for complete, ready-to-install hardware set
• Lightweight at 0.8 pounds, suitable for standard interior door weight limits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install privacy knob lockset for standard residential interior door preparations with a 2-1/8 inch cross-bore and a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, consistent with typical residential door hardware specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, locksmith, or experienced DIYer using a screwdriver and, for new prep, a hole saw and chisel. Verify the door edge bore and backset measurement before installation to confirm latch compatibility. For retrofit applications, remove existing hardware completely before installing the new knob and latch assembly. Do not overtighten mounting screws, as this can bind the knob mechanism and reduce latch function.
