Kwikset 488T-15 Tylo Knob Half Dummy Lock Satin Nickel

Product Description

The KWIKSET 488T-15 is a half dummy knob designed for interior door applications where latching or locking function is not required. It installs on one side of a door only, providing the look and feel of a full knob set without any mechanical latch mechanism. The 488T-15 comes in a Satin Nickel finish and is suited for closets, pantries, and decorative applications where a door pull is needed but a working latch is not. Installation is straightforward and does not require any special tools. The unit weighs 0.35 pounds and ships as a single piece.

This half dummy knob is intended for residential interior doors such as closet doors, bi-fold single doors, and decorative pass-through applications. It is typically installed by homeowners or finish carpenters during new construction or renovation work. The Satin Nickel finish is a common choice for coordinating with other interior door hardware throughout a home. No key, latch, or strike plate is required for this installation.

Installation Notes

Half dummy knobs are typically installed by finish carpenters or homeowners and do not require a locksmith or licensed trade contractor. No door boring or latch prep is needed — the knob mounts directly to the door face using the included hardware. Ensure the door surface is clean and flat before mounting. Consult the included instruction sheet for proper fastener placement and alignment.
