Kwikset 968TDL-11P Trafford Lever Dummy Trim Venetian Bronze

Product Description

The KWIKSET 968TDL-11P is an interior dummy handleset trim in the Trafford lever style, finished in Venetian Bronze. Dummy trim is a non-functional door hardware component — it has no latch, lock, or bolt mechanism. It is used on closet doors, pantry doors, French doors, and other passages where a pull handle is needed but no latching function is required. The Venetian Bronze finish provides a dark, oil-rubbed appearance suited to traditional and transitional interior decor. Installation requires no mortising or boring; the trim mounts directly to the door face. Door hardware contractors and finish carpenters are the typical installers.

This dummy trim is designed for interior residential applications. It is commonly installed on single doors that swing freely or on the inactive leaf of a double-door set where a matching active handleset is installed on the companion door. The Trafford lever profile offers a classic, elongated lever design that complements a range of interior architectural styles. Sold as a single unit.

• Trafford lever style in Venetian Bronze finish
• Surface-mount installation requires no door prep beyond fastener holes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style interior dummy trim for residential door applications. Verify door thickness and backset requirements before ordering to confirm fitment with your specific door configuration.

Installation Notes

Dummy trim is installed by a finish carpenter or door hardware contractor and does not require a licensed trade credential in most jurisdictions. Power tools are not required — a screwdriver is typically sufficient. Because there is no latch or electrical component, no lockout or power-down procedure is needed before installation. Confirm the mounting hole pattern on the door matches the trim footprint before securing.
