Deltana ZMLR4U15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville lever actually latch the door, or is it just a pull?
It's a dummy lever, so there is no latch and no moving mechanism. The Mandeville ZMLR4 mounts to the face of the door and serves as a fixed pull or handle for looks. Use it on closet doors, inactive leaves of a pair, or French doors where a separate ball catch or roller catch holds the door closed. If you need the lever to retract a latch, you want a passage function instead.
2) Is the ZMLR4 sold as a single lever or as a pair for a French door?
Pricing and packaging on the Mandeville dummy lever are per each, one lever per unit. For a pair of French doors or a double door where you want a handle on both faces, order two. Emtek sells some of its dummy levers as a pair under one part, such as the Arts and Crafts Lever dummy pair, so the count differs by brand.
3) Is the Deltana ZMLR4 dummy lever handed, and what do I use if I need a handed half dummy?
The Mandeville ZMLR4 dummy lever is universal handing, so one part covers either side of the opening. If a project calls for a handed half dummy instead, the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy with 5048 rose is offered as a left hand version and a separate right hand version, so the hand must be specified at order.
4) What is a commercial-grade equivalent to the Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville dummy lever for a heavy-traffic opening?
The Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville is a zinc dummy lever built for residential use. For a commercial opening needing the same non-latching dummy function, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed cylindrical lever, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever lock in the 5400 Series. Both give you the pull-only dummy function in a graded commercial line.
5) I need a lever that actually latches the door, not a dummy. What should I order instead of the Mandeville ZMLR4?
The ZMLR4 Mandeville is a dummy lever, so it does not retract a latch. If the door needs to latch, a passage lever is the direct swap: the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage leverset, the Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset, and the Bravura Atlanta BV333002 is a Grade 2 round-trim passage leverset.
6) Can the Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville be keyed, and what should I use on a door that needs a key?
No. The ZMLR4 Mandeville is a non-keyed dummy lever with no cylinder. For a keyed opening, the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/8 inch backset, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt, and the Master Lock RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry lever.
7) Will the Mandeville ZMLR4 work on a bedroom or bathroom door?
The ZMLR4 Mandeville is a dummy lever with no locking mechanism, so it cannot secure a bath or bedroom. For privacy function, the Hager 2540 uses a Withnell lever and fits doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy leverset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose matches the Baldwin 5103 trim family.
8) My spec calls for a fire rated lever. Does the Deltana Mandeville ZMLR4 qualify?
The ZMLR4 Mandeville is a residential dummy lever and does not operate a latch, so it is not the part for a rated opening. Where the drawing calls for a fire rated lever, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lock with a fire rating and a 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever with a fire rating for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
9) Is a passage lever the same thing as the Mandeville ZMLR4 dummy lever?
No, and this is a common ordering mistake. The Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville is a dummy: the lever is fixed and there is no latch or bore hardware behind it. A passage lever such as the Arrow GL01 Sierra, a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lock for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, or the Design Hardware J75 flat lever, a Grade 2 passage lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, rotates to retract a latchbolt and holds the door closed.
10) What finishes does the Deltana Mandeville dummy lever come in?
Three: Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, and Polished Chrome. If you are matching a run of doors, Oil Rubbed Bronze reads dark and warm against wood, Brushed Nickel is the low-sheen silver most builder hardware is matched to, and Polished Chrome is the bright mirror finish. Pick the one that matches the working levers already on the adjacent openings.
11) Can I key the Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville lever or add a cylinder later?
No. The Mandeville dummy is non-keyed and has no cylinder provision at all, since there is nothing inside it to lock. For a keyed opening you need a different function entirely, and for a bed or bath door you need a privacy set with a thumbturn, not this lever.
12) I want the Mandeville look on the working doors too. Can I get this lever in a passage or privacy function?
The ZMLR4 itself is dummy only. To carry a single lever style across working and non-working doors you have to buy the matching function from the same series, since dummy trim cannot be converted. Other brands handle this the same way: Baldwin's Estate 5103 lever is offered as a half dummy, a passage, and a privacy set under three separate part numbers.
13) I need a dummy lever for a pair of French doors. Does the Mandeville ZMLR4 cover both leaves?
The Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville dummy lever is sold each, so a double-door application needs two. If you would rather order a single item that covers both leaves, Emtek lists dummy levers as pairs, including the Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair, the Hammered lever dummy pair, and the Classic brass Cortina lever dummy pair.
14) How does the Deltana Mandeville ZMLR4 compare to the BEST 7KC dummy trim?
Both are non-keyed dummy levers. The Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville is a zinc Elite Collection lever rated for residential use with universal handing. The BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical lever dummy, which is the choice when a project spec calls out an ANSI grade.
15) What is the closest alternative to the Mandeville ZMLR4 if I want a graded dummy lever at a residential trim level?
The Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever, so it keeps the same pull-only, non-latching function as the Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville while carrying an ANSI grade. The ZMLR4 remains the choice when you want the Deltana Elite Collection zinc trim in oil rubbed bronze, brushed nickel, or polished chrome.
16) What matches the Deltana ZMLR4 Mandeville dummy if I want the same decorative look in a full passage set on the adjoining doors?
The ZMLR4 Mandeville is a dummy-only lever in the Deltana Elite Collection. To carry a consistent decorative trim design across dummy and working doors within one family, the Baldwin Estate 5103 with 5048 rose is offered in dummy, passage, and privacy versions, so the same lever and rose appear on every door regardless of function.
17) What is the Deltana Mandeville dummy lever made of, and will the finish hold up on a closet door?
Zinc, both body and substrate, finished in Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, or Polished Chrome. Cast zinc is standard for residential decorative trim and is fine on a dummy application, where the lever is only ever pulled and never turned against a latch spring. If you want a forged or solid brass body, that is a different class of product.
