Kwikset Introduces Brentford™ Handleset in Signature Series™ Collection

Kwikset®, a leader in residential security, has expanded its Signature Series™ Collection with the introduction of the Brentford™ handleset. This new product combines transitional design with the durability and security Kwikset is known for, making it a versatile choice for modern and classic home exteriors alike.

The Brentford handleset is designed for maximum versatility, available in keyed and dummy functions to suit single or double front doors. It complements a range of Kwikset interior knobs and levers, including Sora, Trafford, and Sedona, and comes in Matte Black and Satin Nickel finishes. Both finishes are equipped with Microban® antimicrobial protection, ensuring surfaces remain 99.9% cleaner than unprotected hardware, a significant benefit for high-touch entryways.

Keyed versions of the Brentford handleset feature Kwikset’s SmartKey Security®, offering bump- and pick-resistant technology that allows homeowners to re-key their locks in seconds without professional help. This innovation underscores Kwikset’s commitment to providing advanced DIY re-key technology, enhancing homeowner control and peace of mind.

Certified Grade AAA by the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association (BHMA) for security, durability, and finish, the Brentford handleset meets the highest performance standards. Its design includes a fully adjustable throughbolt for easy installation on a variety of door preps, requiring only a screwdriver for setup.

Amanda Archer, group manager of product marketing at Kwikset, highlighted the Brentford’s adaptability, stating, "Brentford is transitional by nature — clean and elegant, yet adaptable to nearly any style of home. It’s designed to deliver on both form and function, all while offering the security of SmartKey re-key technology."

Priced starting at $112.99, the Brentford handleset is now available through Kwikset’s professional distribution partners and will soon be available at major retailers and online platforms. This launch reinforces Kwikset’s position as a trusted name in residential security, offering products that combine aesthetic appeal with innovative security features.
