Kwikset 740PSKRDT-26S Pismo Entry Knob Lock Bright Chrome

Product Description

The KWIKSET 740PSKRDT-26S is a Pismo-style entry knob lock with a round rose trim, designed for residential entry door applications. It ships as a complete assembly including a 6AL latch and RCS strike plate, finished in Bright Chrome. The lock integrates SmartKey Security technology, which allows the user to rekey the cylinder without removing the lock from the door. This is a keyed-entry function, meaning the exterior knob requires a key while the interior side operates freely. Locksmiths, residential contractors, and property managers install this hardware during new construction, remodel, or lock replacement projects.

This knob set is suited for residential exterior entry doors in single-family and multi-family housing. The included 6AL latch and RCS strike simplify the rough-in by eliminating the need to source components separately. The Bright Chrome finish coordinates with standard residential door hardware suites. The SmartKey cylinder is compatible with Kwikset SmartKey rekey accessories, making it practical for rental turnover and property management scenarios where rekeying frequency is high.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed locksmith or residential contractor following the door prep requirements for a standard knob-bore and latch-bore layout. Confirm door thickness and backset measurement before installation to ensure proper latch and strike alignment. Remove all tension from the door and verify the strike plate mortise depth before securing the RCS strike. Follow local building codes for residential entry hardware requirements.
