Kwikset 300BL-26 Balboa Lever Privacy Door Lock Bright Chrome

Product Description

The KWIKSET 300BL-26 is a privacy lever door lock designed for interior residential door applications such as bedrooms and bathrooms. It ships complete with a 6AL latch and RCS strike, making it a ready-to-install assembly without the need to source additional hardware. The Balboa lever style is finished in bright chrome, providing a clean, polished appearance suited to a range of interior trim styles. At 2 pounds, it is a lightweight unit appropriate for standard residential door prep. Installation is handled by finish carpenters, general contractors, or experienced DIYers working on new construction or remodel projects.

This privacy lock is intended for interior doors where one-sided locking is required without a keyed cylinder. Common applications include master bedrooms, hall bathrooms, and guest rooms in residential construction. The turn-button or push-button privacy function allows occupants to lock the door from the interior, with an emergency release accessible from the exterior using a small tool or coin. The bright chrome finish coordinates with other 26-finish door hardware throughout a home.
