Kwikset 488CSLRDT-26 Casey Lever Half Dummy Bright Chrome

Product Description

The KWIKSET 488CSLRDT-26 is a Casey lever half dummy trim with a round rose in a Bright Chrome finish. A half dummy lever has no latch mechanism and does not rotate to operate a latch — it is a fixed, non-functional lever used strictly for pull or aesthetic purposes. This piece is designed for interior door applications where latching or locking is not required, such as double doors, bypass doors, or decorative closet entries. Installation is handled by a general contractor, finish carpenter, or experienced DIYer. The Bright Chrome finish delivers a polished, reflective surface suited to contemporary and transitional interior designs.

The 488CSLRDT-26 is intended for interior residential applications where a lever handle is needed without a latch or lock function. Typical scenarios include the inactive panel of a double door, wardrobe doors, or any passage where only a pull handle is needed. The round rose backplate provides a clean mounting profile that sits flush against standard interior door prep. This unit is sold individually and ships as a single piece.

Installation Notes

Half dummy levers are installed by finish carpenters or general contractors as part of interior door hardware trim work. No latch bore or strike plate preparation is required for a half dummy application. Power tools are not required; a screwdriver and tape measure are typically sufficient. Confirm the door thickness and backset match the selected trim before installation.
