Kwikset 788PSKRDT-15 Pismo Half Dummy Knob Satin Nickel

Product Description

The KWIKSET 788PSKRDT-15 is a Pismo-style half dummy knob with a round rose, finished in satin nickel. A dummy knob is a non-functional, non-locking door knob used purely for pull and appearance. It does not include a latch or rotating spindle mechanism. This unit is designed for interior residential applications where a door does not require a latch, such as a closet, pantry, or double-door entry. Installation is straightforward and is typically handled by a finish carpenter, door hardware installer, or experienced DIYer. The satin nickel finish provides a clean, neutral look that coordinates with a wide range of interior hardware.

This half dummy knob is suited for residential interior doors where latching or locking is not required. Common applications include double French doors, bypass closet doors, pantry doors, and decorative interior doors. A half dummy is a single-sided unit, meaning it mounts to one face of a door only, as opposed to a full dummy set that mounts on both faces. The round rose backplate provides a traditional mounting profile. It is sold as a single unit.

Installation Notes

Installation of a half dummy knob requires basic hand tools including a screwdriver. No door boring or latch preparation is needed for a dummy knob application. Power down any adjacent electronic hardware and ensure the door is stable and properly hung before mounting. Follow local building codes and the manufacturer's installation instructions for fastener placement.
