Kwikset announced the launch of entry sets, a new collection of exterior door lock sets designed to bring style and security to every entrance of the home.
Designed for front doors, back doors, garage entry doors and side-of-house entrances, the new entry sets feature a deadbolt and handle or knob on interior and exterior backplates. The low profile backplates are designed to blend seamlessly with the door, creating an elevated appearance.
The entry sets are available across Kwikset’s Halifax, Sedona, Sora and Pismo collections, expanding each with a modern addition. Halifax features sleek lines and a smooth, straight handle for contemporary and transitional spaces. Sedona offers an updated wave shape with a slim profile. Sora features a refined traditional knob with detailing around the edges. Pismo delivers clean lines, smooth surfaces and a minimalist aesthetic for a modern look.
Each entry set has Kwikset’s patented SmartKey Security, which protects against advanced break-in techniques and allows homeowners to re-key their lock in seconds. The technology helps families secure multiple exterior doors with one-key convenience.
“Exterior hardware should do more than secure the front door. It should bring style and confidence to every entry point,” says Amanda Archer, group manager of product marketing at Kwikset. “With our new entry sets, homeowners can create a seamless look across the exterior of the home while enjoying the everyday convenience of SmartKey Security and the trusted performance Kwikset is known for.”
