Kwikset 819BFHLIP-514 Dummy Exterior Handleset Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 819BFHLIP-514 is a dummy Brentford exterior handleset finished in matte black. A dummy handleset has no latch or lock mechanism — it is a fixed, non-functional pull handle used where operation from one side only is needed or where a decorative pull is required without a latching function. This handleset is intended for exterior door applications and is installed by a finish carpenter, general contractor, or skilled installer. The matte black finish provides a consistent, low-sheen appearance suited to contemporary and transitional architectural styles.

This dummy handleset is used on exterior doors where a full latch or lock mechanism is not required — typically paired with a separate active hardware unit on a double-door entry or used as a stationary pull on a non-latching door. It is suited for residential entry applications. No keying, rekeying, or locksmith service is required for installation.
