Kwikset 788SOK-514 Sora Half Dummy Knob Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 788SOK-514 is a half dummy knob featuring the Sora style paired with a traditional round rose, finished in matte black. A half dummy knob does not latch or lock — it turns freely and is used strictly for pull or decorative purposes. This hardware is intended for interior applications such as closet doors, pantry doors, or any passage where a latch mechanism is not required. Installation is straightforward and does not involve a latch bolt or strike plate. The matte black finish delivers a clean, contemporary look suited to modern residential interiors.

This half dummy knob is designed for residential interior door applications. Typical use cases include closet doors, bi-fold door pulls, pantry entries, and decorative cabinet or furniture doors where no latching function is needed. The traditional round rose provides a classic backplate profile that suits a wide range of interior door styles. Sold as a single unit, this piece is intended for one side of a door only. For double-sided dummy applications, two units are required.

Installation Notes

Half dummy knobs are typically installed by finish carpenters or general contractors during interior door trim-out. No latch bore preparation is required, but a standard cross-bore or surface-mount hole may be needed depending on door preparation. Ensure the door is fully hung and stationary before installing. Follow the manufacturer's template and fastener guidance included with the hardware.
