Emtek 1L1R25 Multi Point Lock Trim (Large Multi Point Entry Set) - Brass Plates, Modern Rectangular Style (2.5" x 17.5"), Dummy Pair

No. The 1L1R25 is trim only, plates and handles. The multi point mortise lock box is not included. Because it is a dummy pair, there is no lock to operate anyway, so it is meant for a fixed or inactive patio door leaf where you want the handle set to match the operating door without any latching mechanism behind it.

The plate is 2.5 x 17.5 inches with a 3-5/8 inch center-to-center between the handle and the cylinder hole, and the cylinder sits above the handle. That 3-5/8 inch CTC and cylinder-above-handle layout is the G-U multi point pattern, which is what the trim is referenced to. If your existing plate measures a different CTC or has the cylinder below the handle, this set will not line up on the existing prep.

Handing is required, right hand or left hand. Even on a dummy set the plate is not symmetrical, so the wrong hand puts the cylinder hole and lever orientation on the wrong side of the door. Stand outside the door, on the swing side, and note which side the hinges are on before you order.

Lever style is a required selection on the set, so you choose it when you order and the handles come with it. There are 51 lever options across the Brass collection, including the L-Square, T-Bar and R-Bar bar levers in Faceted, Hammered, Knurled, Tribeca, Straight Knurled and White Marble, plus named levers like Athena, Poseidon, Milano, Coventry, Rope and Arts & Crafts. Any Brass lever can be ordered on it.

Seven finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) and Satin Brass (US4). Unlacquered brass is the one to note if you are matching a fleet of doors, it is left bare and will patina over time rather than hold the as-shipped color.

It is a residential grade set, and the intended application is swinging patio door hardware. For a commercial opening in a multi-family common area or a storefront you want a commercial rated lock, not residential multi point patio trim.

No cylinder is needed. The dummy pair is not keyed and has no working lock behind it. The plate is prepped for an American standard cylinder above the handle so it matches the active leaf visually, but there is nothing to key. Order the keyed active trim for the operating door and use this on the inactive one.

The 1L1R25 is the large multi point configuration, a 2.5 x 17.5 inch plate. Pick it when the door already has the large multi point prep or when you are matching an existing large plate on the adjacent leaf. If your existing hardware sits on a shorter plate, a large plate will not cover the same footprint and the holes will not align, so match the configuration you have rather than the look you prefer.

Both the plates and the substrate are brass, so you are getting brass through the plate rather than a brass-look coating over zinc. That matters on an exterior patio door where the trim sees weather and hand traffic.

Door thickness is an optional entry on the order. Provide it if your patio door is anything other than a standard thickness, since the through-spindle and fastener length on a multi point trim set are cut to the door. Measure the leaf edge and put the figure in rather than leaving it blank on a thick or custom slab.

The Modern Rectangular series is the contemporary rectangular plate profile in Emtek's Brass collection, and the same seven finishes run across it. If the interior doors and the entry are already Emtek Brass in, say, Satin Nickel US15 or Flat Black US19, the patio trim will read as the same family. The lever you choose does most of the matching work, so carry the same lever style through from the other openings.
