Kwikset 488BRNLSQT-15 Breton Lever Half Dummy Satin Nickel

Product Description

The KWIKSET 488BRNLSQT-15 is a Breton-style half dummy lever with a square rose in a Satin Nickel finish. A half dummy lever does not latch or lock — it functions as a pull handle only, making it the correct choice for closets, pantries, and double doors where passage hardware is not needed. The square rose provides a clean, contemporary backplate profile. This hardware is installed by general contractors, finish carpenters, and experienced DIYers during new construction or remodel projects.

This half dummy lever is suited for residential interior applications where a non-latching door pull is required. Typical installations include reach-in closet doors, bi-fold door conversions, decorative double door setups, and any interior door that swings freely without needing to stay latched. The Satin Nickel finish coordinates with a wide range of interior hardware and fixture finishes common in residential projects.

Installation Notes

Half dummy levers are installed by finish carpenters or general contractors and do not require a latch bore — only a mounting surface or existing rose plate hole pattern. Confirm door thickness and bore diameter before installation. No lock mechanism is involved, so no keying or programming steps apply. Follow the manufacturer's included template and fastener instructions for proper rose seating and lever alignment.
