Kwikset 720KAL-514 Katella Lever Passage Lock Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 720KAL-514 is a Katella-style lever passage door lock supplied with a 6AL latch and RCS strike plate in a Matte Black finish. Passage locksets operate without a keying mechanism, allowing free passage from either side of the door — the lever turns and the latch retracts without a key or thumbturn. This hardware is designed for interior residential doors such as hallway, closet, and common-area openings where locking function is not required. The unit ships as a complete assembly including the lever trim, 6AL latch, and RCS strike, making it a single-SKU installation for finish-out work.

The 720KAL-514 is suited for standard residential interior door applications. It fits doors at typical finish-out stages in new construction and remodel projects. The Matte Black finish coordinates with contemporary and transitional interior design schemes. Installation is handled by finish carpenters, general contractors, or experienced DIYers working on residential interior door hardware replacement or new installation. The complete latch and strike inclusion reduces the need for separate component sourcing on standard projects.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, general contractor, or qualified DIYer.

Follow the manufacturer-included template and instructions for proper latch and strike alignment to ensure smooth lever operation and positive latch engagement.
