Kwikset 898DA-11P Dakota Handle Venetian Bronze

Product Description

The KWIKSET 898DA-11P is a Dakota series door handle set sold without a deadbolt, designed for residential entry and interior door applications. The set ships with an RCAL latch and RCS strike plate, providing a complete handle installation package in a Venetian Bronze finish. At 2.4 pounds, the hardware is built for standard residential door prep and is installed by contractors, carpenters, or knowledgeable homeowners during new construction or replacement projects. The Venetian Bronze finish coordinates with a wide range of door hardware and trim styles common in residential settings.

This handle set is suited for residential doors where a handleset without a deadbolt is required, such as interior passage doors or secondary entry points where a separate deadbolt is already in place. The included RCAL latch and RCS strike simplify installation by eliminating the need to source compatible hardware separately. The Venetian Bronze finish is a standard finish option within the Dakota product line and pairs with matching Kwikset products for a unified look across a home.
