Kwikset Launches Casey™ Light Commercial Lever and Adds Storeroom Functions to Milan™ and Halifax™ Lines

New product offerings bring modern design, enhanced security and professional-grade durability to multifamily and light commercial applications

LAKE FOREST, Calif. – May 8, 2025 – Kwikset®, a trusted leader in residential security and a registered trademark of ASSA ABLOY Americas Residential Inc., an ASSA ABLOY Group Company, today announced new product offerings for the multifamily and light commercial markets. The expansion includes the launch of the Casey push-button light commercial lever, along with upcoming storeroom function additions to the popular Milan and Halifax lever collections.

The Casey light commercial lever features a contemporary design and push-button locking, offering a modern aesthetic that meets the functional needs of today’s professional spaces. Designed for light commercial use, Casey is built to meet a three-hour UL fire safety rating and comes in five functions: passage, privacy, keyed entry, storeroom and dummy. It is offered in a range of finishes, including Matte Black, Satin Nickel, Polished Chrome and Satin Chrome.

The Milan and Halifax product families, known for their sleek design and Signature Series quality, are expanding to include a storeroom lever option. Both collections will now include a keyed storeroom function that offers enhanced security for shared spaces. The lever’s deadlatch prevents the latch bolt from being retracted with tools such as a knife or credit card, making it ideal for storage rooms, supply closets, laundry rooms, employee-only areas and public restrooms.

Milan features a minimalist design with a smooth handle, providing a clean, contemporary look ideal for modern interiors. Halifax offers a streamlined, squared-off profile, bringing a modern edge to any space. Both families meet ANSI Grade AAA certification for security, durability and finish, and select finishes include Microban® antimicrobial product protection.

“We’re focused on making it easier for multifamily and light commercial professionals to specify hardware that delivers both style and performance,” said Amanda Archer, group manager of product marketing at Kwikset. “With the launch of Casey and the storeroom additions to our Milan and Halifax lines, we’re providing durable, design-forward solutions that meet stringent safety standards while aligning with today’s architectural trends.”

The Casey, Milan and Halifax families feature SmartKey® Security on the storeroom and keyed entry functions, which allows users to rekey locks quickly and easily. Every product installs in minutes with just a screwdriver. All products fit standard 1 3/8-inch to 1 3/4-inch doors and are compatible with both right- and left-handed doors. The collections are ADA/ANSI compliant and backed by Kwikset’s limited lifetime mechanical and finish warranty.
