Kwikset 740HFLSQT-18GS Halifax Lever Entry Lock Gunmetal

Product Description

The KWIKSET 740HFLSQT-18GS is a Halifax-style lever entry door lock featuring a square rose trim and Gunmetal finish. It ships as a complete entry lockset, including a 6AL latch and RCS strike plate, so installers have all required hardware in one package. The lock incorporates SmartKey Security, a re-keying technology that allows the cylinder to be re-keyed without removing the lockset from the door. This unit is intended for residential exterior entry doors and is installed by locksmiths, general contractors, and finish carpenters. The lever design and square rose trim suit contemporary and transitional door styles.

The 740HFLSQT-18GS is suited for residential exterior entry door applications where keyed entry with lever operation is required. The SmartKey cylinder re-keying capability makes it practical for multi-unit or rental properties where rekeying between occupants is routine. The included 6AL latch and RCS strike are factory-matched to the lockset, reducing the likelihood of fitment issues during installation. The Gunmetal finish coordinates with other Gunmetal-finish door hardware in the Kwikset lineup. This lock is sold as a single unit and is also available in case quantities of 12 for volume installations.
