Kwikset 488BLLH-11P Balboa Lever Half Dummy Lock Venetian Bronze

Product Description

The KWIKSET 488BLLH-11P is a left-hand half dummy lever designed for interior door applications where no latch or lock function is required. This Balboa-style lever mounts on a single side of the door and provides a pull handle for closets, pantries, and other non-latching passages. Finished in Venetian Bronze, it delivers a consistent decorative look to match existing hardware in residential settings. The lever measures 5.9 inches in length, 3.2 inches in width, and 2.8 inches in height, and weighs 0.45 pounds. Installation is handled by finish carpenters, general contractors, or experienced DIYers during new construction or remodel work.

This half dummy lever is suited for residential interior doors that do not require a latch or locking mechanism, such as closet doors, wardrobe doors, and bi-fold or single-panel pantry doors. The left-hand designation indicates the hinge side and swing direction of the door, so verify door hand before ordering. The Venetian Bronze finish coordinates with matching KWIKSET hardware across the Balboa product family for a unified appearance throughout a home.

Installation Notes

This lever is installed by finish carpenters or general contractors and requires no latch bore preparation since no latch mechanism is included. Confirm the door hand — left-hand swing — before mounting to ensure the lever faces the correct direction. No electrical shutoff or special trade licensing is typically required for dummy lever installation. Follow the manufacturer template for accurate through-bolt placement to avoid door face damage.
