Kwikset 488T-3 Tylo Knob Half Dummy Lock Bright Brass

Product Description

The KWIKSET 488T-3 is a Tylo-style half dummy knob designed for doors that require a pull or decorative function without any latching or locking mechanism. Half dummy knobs are single-sided and do not rotate to operate a latch, making them the correct choice for closet doors, pantry doors, and other passage applications where a passage set or privacy function is not needed. The 488T-3 ships in a Bright Brass finish and is sold as a single unit. Installation is straightforward and typically handled by a finish carpenter, general contractor, or experienced DIYer during new construction or renovation work.

This half dummy knob is suited for interior residential door applications where a matching knob appearance is desired without latch hardware. Common uses include double French doors paired with an active knob set, bi-fold door pulls, and decorative closet door handles. The Tylo knob profile is a classic round style that fits standard residential door prep and pairs with other Tylo-series hardware for a consistent look throughout a home or unit.

Installation Notes

Half dummy knobs are installed by finish carpenters or general contractors and require no mortise, latch bore, or strike plate — only the knob rose mounting to the door face. Power tools are not required; a screwdriver is typically sufficient. Always verify door thickness compatibility before mounting. No lock code or keying procedure applies to dummy hardware.
