Kwikset 83714-006 Adjustable Plain Latch Fd Rated

Product Description

The KWIKSET 83714-006 is an adjustable plain latch rated for FD (full dummy) applications, designed for residential door hardware installations. Finished in gunmetal, this latch fits into standard door prep and provides smooth, reliable latching action without a locking function, making it the correct component for closets, hallways, and passage doors where a lock is not required. The adjustable backset accommodates common door preparations, reducing the need for multiple SKUs on a job. Installers and finish carpenters working on residential builds or remodels will find this latch compatible with standard door bores.

This latch is suited for interior residential door applications where a non-locking passage or dummy function is specified. The gunmetal finish coordinates with matching door hardware in the same finish family. Its adjustable design supports both 2.375-inch and 2.75-inch backsets, making it adaptable across a variety of pre-hung and existing door configurations without requiring separate latch assemblies for each scenario. Sold individually, it is a direct replacement or upgrade component for residential interior doors.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, door hardware installer, or knowledgeable DIYer using a screwdriver and standard door hardware tools. Ensure the door is stable and not under load before removing or installing latch components. Verify backset measurement on the door before installation to select the correct adjustment position. Follow local building codes for door hardware requirements on interior passage doors.
