Kwikset has launched Capetown, a new elegant arched trim available with select Kwikset levers, knobs and deadbolts. Designed to bring timeless character and visual continuity to the home, the collection pairs traditional architectural details with the trusted quality and everyday performance Kwikset is known for.
The Capetown arch trim is available with the Sedona lever and Sora knob, giving homeowners coordinated options for interior doors throughout the home. A matching Capetown 258 deadbolt extends the look to exterior entrances, creating a cohesive hardware story from the front door to bedrooms, bathrooms, closets and shared living spaces.
With its graceful curves and oversized silhouette, Capetown delivers classic charm without feeling dated. The versatile design complements a range of architectural and interior styles, and is especially well suited for traditional and historic homes, including neoclassical, colonial, traditional farmhouse and ornate Mediterranean.
The collection’s oversized trim creates an elevated, substantial appearance while also helping cover paint marks and surface imperfections that may remain after previous door hardware is removed. For exterior-facing doors, the Capetown 258 deadbolt features a sleek, low profile design that blends seamlessly with the door while delivering the trusted security of a standard deadbolt. The Capetown deadbolt and keyed entry knobs and levers feature Kwikset’s patented SmartKey Security, which protects against advanced break-in techniques and allows homeowners to re-key the lock themselves in seconds.
Capetown products are designed for straightforward, do-it-yourself installation and can be installed in minutes using only a screwdriver. All necessary installation hardware and detailed directions are included. The collection fits standard-size doors 1 3/8 to 1 3/4 inches thick, and all functions excluding the dummy feature an adjustable latch that accommodates 2 3/8- or 2 3/4-inch backsets.
Customers can select from Satin Nickel, Satin Brass and Matte Black finishes. The Capetown 258 deadbolt, and Sedona and Sora entry, passage and privacy functions are Grade AAA certified by the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association for security, durability and finish, and all products are backed by a lifetime mechanical and finish warranty.
