Back in the day, 5 inch backset door hardware was pretty common, but today, almost everything uses the standard 2 3/8" or 2 3/4" backset. If you've been driving yourself crazy trying to find a knob or lever set with a 5 inch backset, you've come to the right place! We have plenty of options from Kwikset and Schlage, two well-known brands that still make backsets that work well with most of their handlesets, deadbolts, door knobs, and levers.

If you're a little unsure about choosing styles from these brands because you've already chosen hardware from a different brand for the rest of your home, don't worry. Products from Schlage and Kwikset can blend in with any design aesthetic, since there are so many styles and finishes for you to choose from. Alternatively, if you haven't shopped for any other hardware outside of your 5 inch backset door hardware, you could consider styling your entire home in Kwikset or Schlage, selecting standard backsets for all of your standard doors and a 5 Inch backset where you need it. To narrow your 5 inch backset door hardware results, check out our sub-categories: handlesets, deadbolts, door knobs, levers, and latches.
