Kwikset 973HFLSQF-514 Dummy Lever Trim Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 973HFLSQF-514 is a dummy interior lever trim in the Halifax style, paired with a square full escutcheon plate in a Matte Black finish. Dummy trim is non-functional hardware — it does not latch, lock, or operate a latchbolt. It is used on stationary doors, cabinet doors, and double-door applications where one door requires a pull handle only. The lever mounts to the door face and provides a grip point without a working mechanism behind it. The square escutcheon gives the installation a clean, contemporary framing. Door hardware installers and finish carpenters are the typical trade for this product.

This dummy lever trim is suited for residential interior applications where a paired or matched look is needed alongside an active door set. Common scenarios include the inactive door of a French door pair, closet doors, and decorative pass-through applications. The Halifax lever profile and square escutcheon are designed to coordinate with matching Kwikset Halifax series entry and privacy sets, allowing consistent hardware appearance across a room or home.

Installation Notes

Dummy lever trim is typically installed by door hardware installers or finish carpenters using a screwdriver and standard door hardware tools. No latch boring or spindle work is required since the trim carries no mechanical function. Confirm door prep dimensions match the escutcheon footprint before installation. Follow the manufacturer's included instruction sheet for fastener placement and trim alignment.
