Kwikset 740MILSQT-26S Milan Entry Lever Lock Bright Chrome

Product Description

The KWIKSET 740MILSQT-26S is a Milan-style entry lever set with a square rose trim, finished in Bright Chrome. It is designed for residential entry door applications and includes SmartKey Security rekeying technology, a 6AL latch, and an RCS strike plate. SmartKey allows the lock to be rekeyed without removing it from the door, a feature useful for property turnover or lost-key situations. The lever and rose are finished in Bright Chrome (26S). The package ships as a single unit and weighs 2 pounds. This hardware is typically installed by locksmiths, general contractors, or knowledgeable homeowners on exterior entry doors.

The 740MILSQT-26S fits standard residential entry door preparations. The Milan lever design pairs with a square rose for a contemporary profile. The included 6AL latch and RCS strike are ready for installation out of the box, reducing the need for separate hardware sourcing. The Bright Chrome finish suits doors in both new construction and remodel applications where a polished metal appearance is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed locksmith, general contractor, or qualified installer following the door hardware manufacturer instructions and local building code requirements. Before installation or rekeying, confirm the door edge bore and cross-bore dimensions match the hardware specifications. SmartKey rekeying requires the SmartKey tool and a working key; follow the manufacturer rekeying procedure exactly to avoid lockout. Do not force the lever or over-torque mounting screws, as this can damage the internal mechanism.
