Kwikset Halifax, Door Handle Lever Passage Door for Hall and Closet with Microban, Square Rose in Matte Black

These are beautiful and feel so heavy duty. Extremely sturdy.

This is Kwikset Halifax but not the same as the similar looking Kwikset Halifax from Home Depot. They both look quite similar on the exterior. However, the latch does not have sufficient movement to engage the locking hole properly. See picture. The one on top is the one I got from Hime Depot. The one on the bottom is the one from Amazon. They are different model numbers. The mechanism is not made the same. You can see how much less area is available on the Amazon one to engage. It works, but hold just on the outer 20% or so of the latch. As a customer, I see Kwikset Halifax privacy lock in Home Depot. It works great. I love it. I need a second one and I also see Kwikset Halifax privacy lock on Amazon. I think, and so would you, that the two products are the same because they looks the same externally. But they are not. Amazon needs to sell these products with model number CLEARLY displayed to avoid such confusion. I have no idea how this product has such high review rating with such a fundamental design flaw.

Some modern designs are sharp. This one has a rounded edge so very good.

Product was bought during a remodel and could not be used. The 30 day return grace period expired. Amazon attempted to get a return label issued but could not due to manufacture’s (Kwikset) policy. I was able to return several other remodel new items to their manufacture with no issue. Brand new in box should be able to return. Very dissatisfied and disappointed with Kwikset.

other things of this handle is fine. I purchased 3 handles and 2 of them are great. the other one comes with 1 bad screw (1 out of 2) that break off during installation (towards the end) and now I have this 1.5inch screw pretty much completely stuck in the door with no way to remove it. I have to find an alternative and this is not a great experience.

I purchased 8 of Helifax door handles. All through Amazon used in good or like new condition. Only one was usable. People stuff their other cheaper handles they are replacing and send back in the Hellifax box to Amazon for a refund. Then the next person gets the used garbage. I received an assortment of different handles and different colors. 2 were the correct ones but missing essential hardware. I went 1 for 8 in this order and waiting for refunds. The real handle, in new condition is great and feels high quality. Gives my doors a heavier feel and a contemporary modern look.

my seven year old decided to lock the door from the inside and close it from the outside. for some reason the privacy unlock is not working at all so you’re completely stuck without being able to enter the bathroom… we have tried multiple Allen keys and other long, thin sticks to try to undo the privacy lock, but it is completely unworkable. not sure what to do

Easy to install. Looks nice!

Good quality, easy swap out. Replaced old brass door handles. Nice upgrade.
