Kwikset and Building Homes for Heroes Celebrate 5 Years of Support
Five years ago, Kwikset, a brand of Spectrum Brands Inc.’s hardware and home improvement division, became involved with Building Homes for Heroes (BHH), a nonprofit organization that builds homes from the ground up or modifies existing homes to meet the needs of war veterans with severe wounds and disabilities.
Through this association, Kwikset committed to supplying a full complement of locks and door hardware to outfit the mortgage-free homes the organization produces. Kwikset kicked off its participation by supplying its smart locks that provide key-free access — specifically its SmartCode Electronic Deadbolts and Lever locks — and assorted hardware for a home in St. Petersburg, Fla.
