Emtek 11A5 Multi Point Lock Trim (Door Config #1) - Brass Plates, Modern Style (1.5" x 11"), Dummy Pair

Dummy means the pair is non-operating. The levers are fixed, there is no latch retraction and no key cylinder, so it goes on the inactive leaf of a French pair or a fixed patio panel where you only want the handle to match. If the door has to latch and lock, you need an operating multi point trim instead, not the dummy.

Yes. The 11A5 covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, which spans both the standard 1-3/4 inch patio door and thinner older units. Door thickness is entered when you order so the spindle and screw pack match your slab.

Config #1 puts the key cylinder below the handle with 3-5/8 inch center-to-center between the cylinder and the lever spindle. Pull the existing plate or check the lock body: if the cylinder sits above the handle, or the spacing is not 3-5/8 inches, this is the wrong configuration and you want a different Emtek config number. The 11A5 also uses an American style cylinder, not a Euro profile.

Yes, right hand or left hand is a required selection. Stand outside the door: hinges on your right is right hand. Even as a dummy the lever has to sweep the correct way and the plate orientation follows the leaf, so a handing mistake means an upside-down assembly.

Each plate measures 1-1/2 x 11 inches in the Modern square-edge profile. Lay that against what is on the door now: an 11 inch plate hides fastener holes within its footprint, but anything outside a 1-1/2 inch width shows. Slim contemporary plates like these are less forgiving than a wide traditional escutcheon.

Seven: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) and Satin Brass (US4). Note Unlacquered Brass has no clear coat, so it will patina over time and will not stay matched to lacquered brass on adjacent openings.

Lever style is a required choice and the list is long, 51 options running from the L-Square, T-Bar and R-Bar contemporary bars in Faceted, Hammered, Knurled, Tribeca, Straight Knurled and White Marble, through named levers like Athena, Poseidon, Stuttgart, Geneva, Milano and Wembley, to traditional shapes like Rope, Ribbon and Reed, Rustic and Arts and Crafts. Any brass lever works with this trim, so you can carry one lever design across the patio door and the interior openings.

Emtek classes the 11A5 as residential trim. For apartments, single family and light hospitality it is the intended application. On a commercial entrance where a graded, cycle-tested device is specified, this is not the part to put on the drawing.

Brass through the substrate, not a plated zinc casting, on both the plates and the handles. That matters on an exterior patio door where the trim sees weather and daily hand contact. Finish is applied over the brass, so a Flat Black or Oil Rubbed Bronze plate still has brass underneath.

No. The 11A5 is mechanical dummy trim with no electronics and no keyway. There is nothing to wire, power or program. If you want keyless entry on the patio door, this is the wrong trim entirely.
