Kwikset 788TNLRH-514 Tustin Lever Half Dummy Matte Black

Product Description

The KWIKSET 788TNLRH-514 is a right-hand half dummy lever in the Tustin style with a Matte Black finish. A half dummy lever does not latch or lock — it functions as a pull handle only, making it the correct choice for non-latching doors such as closets, pantries, and double-door setups where only one side requires hardware. The lever mounts to the door face without a through-spindle connection to a latch mechanism. At 0.6 pounds, it is a lightweight single-unit installation suited for interior residential door applications. Finish carpenters, general contractors, and skilled DIYers are the typical installers.

This half dummy lever is intended for interior residential applications where a functioning latch is not required. Typical installations include reach-in closets, pantry doors, wardrobe doors, and the inactive leaf of a double door. The Tustin lever style and Matte Black finish are designed to coordinate with matching Kwikset Tustin series hardware across a door set, allowing visual consistency between active and inactive door leaves.
