Antibacterial Door Handles with Ultimate Product Protection by Kwikset and Microban

Kwikset is the leading residential lock manufacturer, making homeowners feel safe since 1946. Kwikset works hard to understand the world you live in, so that we can do everything we can to protect it. The company’s unwavering commitment to meeting homeowners’ needs has inspired its innovative lock portfolio that now includes Microban product protection finishes.

Kwikset products with Microban will provide effective protection of the products through a unique coating innovation that will last for the lifetime of the Kwikset product finish. Microban works continuously to keep the door handle cleaner, fighting against bacteria that would normally double in number every 20 minutes. The finish will also enhance hardware durability to maintain the look and quality of the hardware throughout the products’ lifetime.

“Kwikset received very positive feedback from builders and architects about our partnership with Microban after introducing it at IBS 2016,” says Michelle Gangi, Kwikset Senior Product Manager, Spectrum Brands, Inc. – Hardware and Home Improvement Division. “We’re excited Kwikset products with Microban are now available to builders and architects for current and future projects, at no extra cost.”

Door Hardware Finishes for a Cleaner Home

With each and every interaction throughout the day, the products we use can be exposed to bacteria, which can double in number every twenty minutes. Kwikset safety knobs and hardware with Microban antimicrobial product protection stops microbes at the door.

Microban product protection is now available on select Kwikset products and finishes. Architects, designers, builders and homeowners can purchase Kwikset products with Microban at select retailers. The hardware with Microban ranges between $13 and $50 MSRP.
