Explore our premium selection of Front Door Handlesets — elegant, secure, and stylish complete door hardware combinations that pair a decorative handle grip with a matching deadbolt or latch. Perfect for front doors, back doors, or any exterior entry where you want security and a polished, cohesive look.
A handleset typically includes an exterior handle grip (pull or lever), a matching interior latch or lever, and a deadbolt — all designed to work together as a unified system. This creates a strong, secure lock setup while giving your entryway a refined, finished appearance.
Our handlesets come in a variety of styles and finishes — from modern polished chrome to traditional oil-rubbed bronze or satin nickel — allowing you to match your door hardware to your home’s architectural style and existing finishes. The coordinated finish across handle, deadbolt, and trim components adds design harmony and elevates curb appeal.
Because handlesets combine both latch and deadbolt functions, they offer increased security compared with a simple knob or latch. The deadbolt adds a robust bolt locking mechanism that resists forced entry, while the latch/lever provides daily convenience and ease of use.

What is a handleset and why choose one?
A handleset is a complete door hardware system combining a handle (or pull), latch or lever, and a deadbolt — designed to work together for both security and aesthetics.
Are handlesets more secure than a standard doorknob or lever?
Yes — because a handleset includes a deadbolt, it provides a stronger locking mechanism than a simple latch or knob lock. The deadbolt’s bolt resists forced entry better than a spring-bolt latch.
Can a handleset fit standard residential doors?
Most handlesets are designed to fit standard US residential doors — standard backsets, door thicknesses, and latch/deadbolt cutouts. Many include installation hardware and instructions for easy setup.
Do handlesets come in different styles and finishes?
Absolutely. Handlesets are available in a wide range of styles — from classic and traditional to modern and contemporary — and finishes like oil-rubbed bronze, satin nickel, polished chrome, and more, so you can match them with your home’s design and décor.
Should I pair a handleset with a deadbolt or is the handleset enough?
A properly built handleset already includes a deadbolt (or bolt lock) integrated into the mechanism, which is one of its main advantages. This gives both convenience and security in one unified package — perfect for front doors and main entryways.
