Kwikset 788TNLRH-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a half dummy lever actually do, and when should I use one instead of a passage lever?
The Kwikset Tustin half dummy is a single lever on a rose with no latch and no working mechanism. It is fixed, so it does not turn or retract anything. Use it on interior doors that push or pull open, like closet bifolds, french door inactive leaves, and pantry doors held shut by a ball catch or roller catch. If the door needs a latch to stay closed, you want a passage lever instead, such as the Callan Asheville passage leverset or the Falcon B101 passage lever.
2) Is the Kwikset Tustin half dummy handed, and how do I know if I need the right hand version?
It is handed. The KWI-788TNLRH is the right hand lever, so the handle points to the right as you face the trim side of the door. Stand on the side the dummy will be mounted and look at which way you want the lever to sweep down; if it points left from that view, you need the left hand version instead. Dummy levers are cosmetic trim, so handing is purely about which direction the lever points.
3) The door needs a working latch, not a dummy. What lever should I order instead of the Kwikset Tustin half dummy?
The Tustin KWI-788TNLRH is dummy function, so it has no latch and does not move. For a latching interior door, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is the matching-trim passage option, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/hall/closet cylindrical lever. If the room needs to lock from inside, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever covers bed and bath.
4) What is a right hand half dummy lever equivalent to the Kwikset Tustin KWI-788TNLRH?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 right hand half dummy lever with 5048 rose is also a right-handed half dummy trim, so it covers the same single-side push/pull application on an interior door. The Kwikset Tustin KWI-788TNLRH is a residential dummy-function lever in the Tustin collection; the Baldwin uses the Estate 5103 lever on a 5048 rose. If the opening is left handed instead, Baldwin catalogs the Estate 5103 left hand half dummy.
5) Is an Emtek dummy leverset the same thing as the Kwikset Tustin KWI-788TNLRH half dummy?
No. The Kwikset Tustin KWI-788TNLRH is a half dummy, meaning trim for one face of the door. The Emtek Arts and Crafts and Cortina dummy leversets are sold as pairs, which trim both faces of a door such as a double or closet pair. Ordering a pair when only one side is trimmed leaves a spare lever, and ordering a half dummy for a two-sided application leaves one face bare.
6) Does a half dummy lever need a bored hole in the door?
No cross bore is needed for the function itself. The Tustin half dummy is surface mounted trim with no latch and no working parts, and Kwikset says it installs in minutes with just a screwdriver. That makes it a straightforward add to a closet or french door leaf that was never prepped for a lockset.
7) What finishes does the Kwikset Tustin half dummy lever come in so I can match the rest of my doors?
Seven finishes: Satin Nickel, Bright Chrome, Satin Chrome, Bright Brass, Venetian Bronze, Antique Nickel, and Matte Black. For a property manager matching a fleet of units, pick the same finish family you already run on the entry and passage sets so the closet and french doors do not read as a mismatch.
8) Is the Tustin lever ADA compliant for a multi-family or rental unit?
Kwikset states the Tustin lever meets ADA/ANSI A117.1 requirements. The lever shape is what does it, since it can be operated without grasping or twisting. Note this is a residential grade product, so for commercial openings under a spec you would be looking at a Grade 1 or Grade 2 commercial line instead.
9) I need dummy levers on both sides of a french door pair. Do I order two of these?
Yes, a half dummy is one lever on one face, so a pair of doors trimmed on both faces needs two units, and you will want the correct hand for each. If you would rather buy it as a set, Emtek sells dummy levers as a pair, including the Arts and Crafts and Cortina designs.
10) I want a matching half dummy in a more traditional or solid brass look. What else is there?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with the 5048 rose is available in both right hand and left hand, and it is the decorative counterpart if the Tustin styling is too contemporary. Baldwin also builds the 5103 in passage and privacy, so you can carry one lever design across the closet, bedroom, and bath doors in the same suite.
11) What is a Grade 2 dummy lever alternative to the Kwikset Tustin half dummy for apartment turns?
The Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT single dummy trim lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed medium duty dummy. Both carry a stated ANSI grade, where the Kwikset Tustin KWI-788TNLRH is a residential lever with Microban antimicrobial protection on the finish.
12) Do I need to worry about handing on dummy lever substitutes for the Kwikset KWI-788TNLRH?
Yes on half dummies. The Kwikset KWI-788TNLRH is the right hand Tustin half dummy, and Baldwin likewise splits the Estate 5103 half dummy into right hand and left hand versions. Single dummy trims such as the BEST 9K Series 1DT and the Accentra 455LN Augusta are catalogued without a hand in their description, so confirm lever orientation against the opening before you commit.
13) What is the Microban treatment on this Kwikset lever, and does it matter in a healthcare or hospitality setting?
The Tustin lever carries Microban antimicrobial product protection built into the hardware surface, which Kwikset states keeps the hardware 99.9 percent cleaner than unprotected surfaces. It works on the surface finish over time, it is not a disinfectant and does not replace cleaning protocols. For high-touch residential-grade openings in assisted living or short-term rentals, it is a reasonable spec point, but it carries no NSF or healthcare listing.
