Kwikset 788PSKRDT-11P Pismo Half Dummy Knob Venetian Bronze

Product Description

The KWIKSET 788PSKRDT-11P is a Pismo-style half dummy knob with a round rose, finished in Venetian Bronze. A half dummy knob is a non-turning, non-latching door knob used purely for pull function on doors that do not require a latch mechanism. It mounts to one side of the door only. This hardware is installed by finish carpenters, general contractors, and skilled homeowners during new construction or remodeling projects. The Venetian Bronze finish provides a dark, oil-rubbed appearance suited to traditional and transitional interior design schemes. At 0.1 pounds, the unit is lightweight and straightforward to mount.

This half dummy knob is intended for interior residential applications where a passage or latch function is not needed. Common installations include double doors, closet doors, pantry doors, and bi-fold door setups where the knob serves as a pull handle only. The round rose backplate provides a clean, low-profile mounting surface against the door face. The Venetian Bronze finish coordinates with matching KWIKSET hardware across the Pismo product line for a consistent look throughout a space.

Installation Notes

Half dummy knobs are installed by finish carpenters or general contractors and require no mortise or latch bore — only a standard through-bolt or surface-mount fastener hole is needed. Power down any adjacent smart lock or electronic hardware before working near wired door frames. Follow the door manufacturer's hardware installation template for proper rose alignment and fastener placement. Do not force the knob onto an incompatible spindle or rose configuration.
