Kwikset 971HFLSQF-514 Interior Lever Trim Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 971HFLSQF-514 is a single cylinder interior Halifax lever trim with a square full escutcheon plate, finished in matte black. This trim component pairs with a compatible Kwikset handleset to complete the interior-side door hardware installation on entry doors. The square escutcheon provides a clean, angular aesthetic suited for modern and transitional residential interiors. Weighing 2.2 pounds, it is a solid, installation-ready unit sold individually. This part is installed by finish carpenters, general contractors, or experienced DIYers working on residential door hardware projects.

This interior trim is designed for residential entry door applications where a matching interior lever completes a single cylinder handleset configuration. The Halifax lever style and square escutcheon profile are commonly specified in new construction and remodel projects seeking a consistent matte black hardware finish throughout the home. The trim mounts to the interior face of the door and connects to the existing lockset chassis. It is sold as a single unit and is also available in case quantities of four.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, general contractor, or qualified DIYer. Ensure the door latch and handleset chassis are fully de-tensioned and the door is secured open before beginning trim installation. Follow the hardware manufacturer's template and fastener guidance for proper escutcheon alignment and lever engagement. Do not overtighten escutcheon mounting screws, as this can distort the trim plate or restrict lever movement.
