Kwikset 83254-001 Set Screw Passage Privacy Interior

Product Description

The KWIKSET 83254-001 is a replacement set screw designed for use in Kwikset passage, privacy, and interior smart entry locksets. Set screws secure internal components within the lock assembly, maintaining proper alignment and preventing unwanted movement during operation. This small but critical fastener is sold as a single unit and is intended for use by locksmiths, door hardware technicians, and experienced installers performing service or repair work on compatible Kwikset locksets. At 0.1 pounds, the part ships as a single-piece replacement unit.

This set screw is applicable to residential door hardware installations where Kwikset passage, privacy, or interior smart entry locksets are in service. Passage and privacy applications are common in interior doors such as bedrooms, bathrooms, and hallways. Interior smart entry applications extend this use to connected and electronic locksets installed on interior-facing doors. The part is suited for repair or refurbishment scenarios where an original set screw has been lost, stripped, or damaged during servicing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified locksmith or experienced door hardware technician. Ensure the door is stationary and the lockset is fully removed from service before replacing any internal fasteners. A properly sized hex key or screwdriver is typically required to seat the set screw correctly. Do not overtighten, as doing so may damage internal lock components or affect proper operation.
