Kwikset 788HFLSQT-514 Halifax Half Dummy Lever Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 788HFLSQT-514 is a Halifax lever with square rose half dummy door lock finished in matte black. A half dummy lever is a non-latching, non-locking trim piece used where door operation is not required — typically on inactive double doors, closet doors, or decorative applications. It mounts to the door face without a latch mechanism, providing a clean, matched look to a paired active lever set. The 788HFLSQT-514 weighs 0.6 pounds and ships as a single unit. Installation is straightforward and suited to finish carpenters, general contractors, or experienced homeowners.

Half dummy levers are used in residential interior applications where a functioning latch is not needed. Common installation locations include the stationary panel of French doors, bifold bypass doors, and shallow closets. The Halifax style with square rose complements modern and transitional interior design schemes. The matte black finish coordinates with other KWIKSET Halifax series hardware for a consistent look throughout a space. This unit is sold individually.

Installation Notes

Half dummy levers are installed by finish carpenters or general contractors and require no latch bore preparation beyond a standard through-bolt or surface mount. Confirm door thickness compatibility before installation. No electrical shutoff or special trade licensing is required for hardware-only installation. Follow local building codes for any associated door framing or accessibility requirements.
