Polished Chrome Dummy Door Knobs and Door Levers are decorative, non-functional hardware designed for doors that do not require a latch or lock. These fixed knobs and levers provide a clean, finished appearance while serving as simple pulls for interior doors.
Dummy hardware does not turn or operate a latch mechanism. This makes it ideal for closets, pantry doors, linen closets, storage doors, access panels, and double-door installations where one door is inactive. Polished chrome adds a bright, reflective finish that works especially well in modern, contemporary, and transitional interiors.
Installation is straightforward because no latch, lock cylinder, or door bore is required. Dummy knobs and levers typically mount directly to the door surface or use a simple through-bolt, making them a practical choice for remodels, retrofits, and decorative applications.
For a cohesive look throughout your home, polished chrome dummy hardware pairs well with matching chrome hinges, cabinet hardware, and other door accessories.
