ProSource’s matte black deadbolt offers contractors a reliable Grade 3 security solution with adjustable backset compatibility and standard Kwikset keyway that makes sense for production builders. The adjustable backset and universal handing mean you’re not stuck ordering different SKUs for every door variation on a job site.
Installation Flexibility and Security Features
The adjustable backset (2-3/8” or 2-3/4”) and 6-way latch system make this deadbolt compatible with virtually any standard residential door prep. That flexibility matters when you’re dealing with existing door preps that might vary across a remodel project. Door thickness compatibility runs from 1-3/8” to 1-3/4”, covering everything from older hollow-core interior doors to modern insulated steel entries.
The hardware fits standard 2-1/8” cross bore prep, so you’re not drilling new holes or dealing with adapter plates. Universal handling allows for installation on both left and right-handed doors — one less thing to specify wrong when ordering.
Security Specifications
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| ANSI Grade | 3 (Residential standard) |
| Deadbolt Throw | 1 inch |
| Cylinder Type | Single cylinder (5-pin) |
| Keyway | Kwikset KW1 |
| Strike Plate Size (Deadbolt) | 25.3 mm x 57 mm |
Standard ANSI Grade 3 rating for residential security means this meets code for single-family homes. It’s not pretending to be commercial-grade hardware. The 1-inch deadbolt throw provides standard security engagement into the door frame.
Complete Package Contents and Value
Exterior Lever Handle, Interior Lever Handle, Single Cylinder Deadbolt, Adjustable Latch Sets, Strike Plates, Mounting Hardware (Screws), Two (2) KW1 Keys — everything needed for a complete entry installation comes in the box. That’s the difference between a professional product and homeowner-grade hardware where you’re making three trips back for missing strike screws.
The matte black finish hits the current trend in contemporary hardware design. Sleek matte black finish provides a modern aesthetic that works with contemporary Montana homes, especially those timber frame and modern mountain designs popular around Whitefish and Big Sky.

| Edge Bore Diameter | 1” (25 mm) |

Installation requirements: Standard door prep holes; no special tools beyond a screwdriver usually needed. The adjustable 6-way latch eliminates most fitment headaches during installation.
Bottom Line
This ProSource deadbolt makes sense for production builders and remodelers who need consistent, code-compliant hardware. The Kwikset KW1 keyway means replacement keys are available at any hardware store — practical for rental properties and spec homes.
Limited Lifetime Warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. The finish warranty for matte black is typically shorter (5 years) or limited to manufacturing defects. That’s standard for this product category — matte black finishes always show wear faster than polished brass or satin nickel.
ProSource is known as a reliable, value-oriented hardware brand, and this deadbolt fits that reputation. It’s not trying to compete with Schlage B-series or Baldwin prestige hardware. It’s aimed at contractors who need dependable, attractive hardware that works within project budgets on a 20-unit apartment complex or starter home subdivision.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does this compare to the Kwikset Juno or Tylo entry sets?
Similar Grade 3 rating and KW1 keyway. You’re getting equivalent security certification and key compatibility. The main trade-off is brand recognition if that matters to your customers.
Q: Will this work with my existing Kwikset keys?
Yes. The standard Kwikset KW1 keyway means it’ll work with any existing KW1 keys. You can also have it rekeyed at any locksmith or hardware store that handles Kwikset products.
Q: Is Grade 3 security adequate for residential use in Montana?
Standard ANSI Grade 3 rating for residential security meets all residential building codes. Not as durable or secure as Grade 2 or Grade 1 locks (e.g. Schlage Camelot or Baldwin), but sufficient for standard residential needs. For higher-crime areas or premium homes, consider stepping up to Grade 2.
Q: What’s included with the complete entry set?
Exterior Lever Handle, Interior Lever Handle, Single Cylinder Deadbolt, Adjustable Latch Sets, Strike Plates, Mounting Hardware (Screws), Two (2) KW1 Keys. Everything needed for a complete installation on a standard door prep.
Q: Can this be installed on any door thickness?
Door thickness compatibility: 1-3/8 in to 1-3/4 in. This covers standard residential doors. Thicker commercial doors or some premium entry doors over 1-3/4” won’t work without modification.
