Kwikset Sedona Interior Passage Door Handle Lever - Satin Brass

In this review the Kwikset Sedona passage lever stands out as a solid, well-made option for interior doors where no locking is required. Designed for closets and hallways, the lever's slim wave profile and satin brass finish give a modern look while the dual compression springs promise a never sag lever over time. Installation is straightforward and reversible for left or right handed doors, so a typical DIYer can have a clean, functional handle fitted in minutes with just a screwdriver and the included hardware.

Key Features

• Non-locking passage: Ideal for doors that require free turning; the latch lets the door open and close without a locking mechanism.
• Never sag lever: Dual compression springs keep the lever horizontal for the life of the handle, preventing the droop common with cheaper levers.
• Easy install reversible lever: The lever installs in minutes with a screwdriver and reversible handing for left- or right-handed doors.
• Fits standard doors: Works with doors 1-3/8' to 1-3/4' thick and offers an adjustable latch backset from 2-3/8' to 2-3/4'.
• Certified quality: Grade 2 BHMA certification means it is built to withstand everyday use and common forced entry attempts.
• Warranty protection: Backed by a lifetime mechanical and finish warranty for long-term peace of mind.

Who It's For

The Sedona passage lever is best for homeowners, renovators, and renters who want a clean, contemporary interior handle that looks expensive but installs easily. It is especially well suited to closet and hallway doors where a non-locking solution is appropriate and a stable, non-sagging lever is preferred.

It is not intended for exterior entry doors or applications that require keyed security; those seeking keyed, locking hardware should choose a model with a locking mechanism and the brand's SmartKey security instead.
