Kwikset 788MILRDT-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a half dummy lever like the Kwikset 788MIL Milan actually do on a door?
The Milan half dummy is a pull only lever. There is no latch and no moving mechanism, so the handle does not turn anything. It mounts on one face of the door and is used on interior doors where you only need something to push or pull, such as a closet door that catches on a roller or ball catch, or the inactive leaf of a French pair. If you need the door to actually latch shut, you need a passage lock instead.
2) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand version of the Kwikset Milan half dummy?
No handing to specify. The Milan lever is fully reversible and installs on both right hand and left hand doors, so one part covers either swing. That is worth knowing if you are buying for a building with mixed openings, because some half dummy levers are handed, like the Baldwin Estate 5103, which is sold as separate left hand and right hand versions.
3) Does one Kwikset 788MIL cover both sides of a door?
No. Half dummy means one lever, one side of the door. For a door that needs a lever on each face, order two, or look at a dummy pair such as the Emtek Arts and Crafts or Cortina dummy levers, which are sold as pairs.
4) What is a commercial-grade alternative to the Kwikset 788MIL Milan half dummy lever for a high-traffic opening?
The Kwikset 788MIL Milan half dummy is a residential lever with pull-only function. Where a heavy duty commercial dummy is wanted, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim cylindrical lever lock is Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy in the 5400 Series is also Grade 1. A medium duty option in the same dummy function is the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim, Grade 2.
5) I need a latching lever, not a pull-only dummy — what should I order instead of the 788MIL Milan?
The Kwikset 788MIL Milan half dummy has no latch; it is for interior doors needing push/pull only. For a latching non-keyed lever, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/hall/closet lever, the Bravura Atlanta round trim leverset is a Grade 2 passage set, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset. For a Grade 1 passage lever, look at the Falcon K101 or the Dexter C1000 Series passage.
6) Do I have to order handed half dummy levers like the Baldwin 5103, or is there a reversible option?
The Kwikset 788MIL Milan half dummy lever is fully reversible and installs on right hand or left hand doors, so one part number covers both swings. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy with 5048 rose is ordered by hand instead - 5103-LDM is the left hand half dummy and 5103-RDM is the right hand. On a multi-door job that is two part numbers to track versus one.
7) The bedroom door needs to lock - can I use the Kwikset 788MIL Milan lever?
No. The Kwikset 788MIL Milan is a half dummy for push/pull only and has no locking function. For a bed or bath door, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose covers privacy function, and the Hager 2540 with Withnell lever is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
8) Is the Kwikset Milan lever ADA compliant for lever operation?
Yes. The Milan lever meets ADA/ANSI A117.1 requirements, so it satisfies the no tight grasping, no twisting operable hardware requirement where that applies. Keep in mind it is a half dummy with no latch, so it is the pull hardware on the opening, not an operating lockset.
9) What tools and prep do I need to install the Kwikset Milan half dummy?
A screwdriver. The half dummy surface mounts to the door face and installs in minutes, with no latch to fit and no strike to mortise in the frame. There is no cross bore or latch bore to drill either, which is why it also works on a slab door that was never prepped for a lockset.
10) Will the Kwikset Milan half dummy match my other Milan levers?
Yes, it is the Milan collection with the round rose, so the lever shape and rose profile line up with the rest of the Milan trim from Kwikset. Order the matching finish from the five offered and the dummy will read the same as the passage and entry Milan levers on the other doors.
11) What is the difference between the Kwikset 788MIL half dummy and an Emtek dummy pair?
The Kwikset 788MIL Milan is a half dummy - a single pull-only lever on one face of the door. The Emtek Arts & Crafts lever dummy and Hammered lever dummy are supplied as pairs, as is the Emtek Classic Cortina lever dummy, giving a lever on both faces. For a closet or a French door where both sides need a pull, the pair is the match; for a single-face pull, the 788MIL half dummy is.
12) Is the Callan Bentley dummy lever a substitute for the Kwikset 788MIL Milan?
Both are dummy-function levers, so both are pull-only with no latch. The Callan Bentley in the Bentley series is rated Grade 2, while the Kwikset 788MIL Milan is a residential Signature Series lever with a round rose that meets ADA/ANSI A117.1 and comes in Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Bright Chrome, Satin Chrome and Matte Black. Trim style and finish match to the rest of the doors usually decides it.
13) If I want a keyed lever in the same interior opening instead of the 788MIL dummy, what are the options?
The Kwikset 788MIL Milan half dummy is non-latching and non-keyed. For a keyed lever, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 entry/office cylindrical lever.
14) What finishes does the Kwikset 788MIL Milan half dummy come in?
Five finishes: Venetian Bronze, Satin Nickel, Bright Chrome, Satin Chrome and Matte Black. If you are matching other Kwikset hardware already on the job, pick the same finish name across the passage and entry sets so the round rose trim reads consistently down the hall.
