Kwikset 720HFLSQT-514 Halifax Lever Passage Lock Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 720HFLSQT-514 is a Halifax-style lever passage door lock featuring a square rose trim plate, a 6AL latch, and an RCS strike plate, finished in Matte Black. Passage locks do not key or latch with a thumbturn — they allow free movement through a door at all times, making them standard for hallways, closets, and common areas. The Halifax lever's straight, square-cornered profile fits contemporary and transitional interior design schemes. The included 6AL latch and RCS strike are pre-matched for a complete installation with no additional hardware required. At 1.8 pounds, the set is solid without being cumbersome to install.

This passage lock is intended for interior residential doors where no locking function is needed — hallways, living spaces, pantries, and closets. It is not designed for exterior applications or for doors requiring a privacy or keyed lockset. The square rose trim pairs well with modern rectangular lever hardware throughout a home. Installers working on new construction or remodel projects can specify this SKU to get the lever, latch, and strike in a single unit, keeping finish and style consistent.

Installation Notes

Passage levers are installed by carpenters, finish trades, or qualified DIYers familiar with door hardware. Verify the door bore diameter and backset measurement before installation to ensure latch and rose plate fit correctly. No electrical shutoff is required. Follow the fastener and adjustment instructions included with the unit — do not overtighten the through-bolts, as this can bind the lever mechanism.
