Kwikset 488LRLSQTRH-26 Half Dummy Lever Bright Chrome

Product Description

The KWIKSET 488LRLSQTRH-26 is a right-hand Ladera lever with a square rose trim, configured as a half dummy for non-latching interior door applications. Half dummy levers are non-functional hardware — they do not operate a latch or lock mechanism. They are used on single doors where a pull handle is needed without any latching action, or as the inactive side of a double door pair. This unit ships in Bright Chrome finish and is sold as a single unit. It suits residential interior installations where matching hardware style across a home is the priority.

This lever is intended for interior residential use on doors that require a handle for appearance and pull function only, such as closets, pantries, and bi-fold or bypass door applications where a stationary pull is appropriate. The square rose backplate gives it a contemporary profile that pairs with modern and transitional interior design schemes. Installation requires no key cylinders, latch bolts, or strike plates.

Key Features

• Half dummy configuration — no latch, no lock mechanism, pull function only
• Right-hand orientation for proper lever direction on applicable doors
• Square rose backplate for a clean, contemporary appearance
• Bright Chrome finish for a polished, reflective look
• Lightweight at 0.2 pounds — minimal door stress
• Sold individually (single unit per order)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style half dummy lever for residential interior doors where no latching or locking function is required. Intended for right-hand door applications.

Installation Notes

Half dummy levers are typically installed by finish carpenters or general contractors during interior door hardware installation. No latch bore preparation is required for a dummy-only application, though a standard cross-bore door may be used. Fasten the rose plate and lever spindle per the included hardware template. No electrical shutoff or plumbing isolation is necessary for this mechanical hardware.
