Product Description

The KWIKSET 3014 US3 is a polished brass entry deadlatch designed for residential and light commercial door hardware applications. A deadlatch provides automatic latching action when the door closes, with a deadlocking plunger that prevents the latch bolt from being pushed back without the proper key or lever operation.

This entry deadlatch is suited for exterior and interior entry doors requiring a secure, automatically latching mechanism. The polished brass finish coordinates with a wide range of door hardware styles. The rectangular face plate fits standard mortise pockets and door edge preparations.
