Kwikset 818PTHLIP-514S.STRKP Exterior Handleset Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 818PTHLIP-514S.STRKP is a single cylinder exterior handleset designed for residential entry door applications. It ships as a complete assembly that includes the Prescott-style lever trim, a 6AL latch, and a strike pack containing square corner, round corner, and 5303 round corner full lip strikes. The SmartKey Security cylinder allows the homeowner or installer to rekey the lock without removing hardware from the door. The matte black finish is factory-applied. At 4.2 pounds, this is a full handleset kit intended for professional installation on exterior entry doors.

This handleset is suited for single-family residential entry doors where a coordinated exterior trim set is required. It covers the typical rough-bore door prep and ships with multiple strike plate options to accommodate common door frame conditions, including both square corner and round corner mortise pockets. The included 6AL latch is compatible with standard door thickness and backset configurations typical in residential construction. Locksmiths, general contractors, and finish carpenters are the primary installers.

Disengage all access to the entry point and secure the work area before beginning. Refer to local building codes for any requirements related to egress door hardware on primary entry doors.
