Kwikset 788TNLLH-15 Tustin Lever Half Dummy Satin Nickel

Product Description

The KWIKSET 788TNLLH-15 is a left-hand Tustin lever half dummy in a satin nickel finish, designed for non-latching interior door applications. A half dummy lever has no locking mechanism and no turn piece — it functions purely as a pull handle. This hardware is typically installed on the inactive side of a double door, on closet doors, or on any door that does not require a latch or lock. Installation requires basic hand tools and is handled by finish carpenters, door hardware specialists, or general contractors during new construction or renovation work.

This half dummy lever suits residential interior applications where a matching aesthetic is needed without a functional latch. Common uses include pantry doors, linen closets, wardrobe doors, and the fixed panel of a double entry door set. The Tustin style offers a traditional lever profile that coordinates with other Tustin-series hardware throughout the home. The satin nickel finish provides a brushed, low-sheen appearance that blends with a wide range of interior trim and fixture finishes.

Installation Notes

A licensed finish carpenter or experienced installer typically mounts half dummy levers using a standard screwdriver or drill driver — no latch bore or strike plate is required. Confirm door handing prior to installation; left-hand and right-hand dummy levers are not interchangeable. Ensure the mounting surface is solid and free of damage before fastening. No electrical shutoff or specialized trade licensing is required for this hardware type.
