Emtek 3052 Middleton Brass Mortise Entrance Handleset - Dummy

The Middleton 3052 is a dummy handleset, so there is no latch, no cylinder and no working mechanism behind it. It mounts as a fixed pull for the inactive leaf of a pair of doors, a French door slab that is held by a flush bolt or a ball catch, or a closet or pantry door that only needs a grip. If you need the door to latch or key, you want the entrance version of the same trim rather than this one.

Yes, and it is not optional. Handing is required on all Emtek mortise handlesets, and the Middleton 3052 is ordered as either LH or RH, each available in all eight finishes. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is a left hand set, hinges on the right is right hand. Get it wrong and the thumbpiece and handle orientation will not match the door.

It ships as a complete set, but the inside trim is a choice you make on the order. Any Emtek brass knob or lever can be paired with it, from levers like the Stuttgart, Athena, Luzern and Milano to knobs like the Ace, Round, Egg and Victoria, plus crystal options such as Windsor and Georgetown. Pick one and it comes in the box with the exterior handleset.

That is the normal use for it. The dummy carries no latch, so the inactive leaf gets held by flush bolts or a surface bolt while the active leaf takes a working entrance handleset. Because both leaves take the same Middleton trim in the same finish, the pair reads as a matched set from outside. Order handing per leaf, since the two doors are opposite hands.

The Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever is also a dummy function handleset, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob is another dummy option, fitting the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range, with a knob rather than a lever on the interior. The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a brass dummy handleset and is handed, so a left or right hand must be specified when ordering; the Weslock dummy sets are described by door thickness range rather than by hand.

The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a dummy handleset and is non-keyed, so it does not lock. For a keyed opening, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Handleset with Accent Lever is an entrance function Grade 2 set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont Single Cylinder Entry Mortise Trim is an entrance function mortise trim for 1-3/4 inch doors, which keeps the mortise door prep the Middleton uses. The Kwikset 687AMD SMT Amador Single Cylinder Handleset is a Grade 3 entrance handleset for 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 3052 Middleton lists 1-3/4 inch as standard door thickness and asks that a thicker door be specified at order, and door thickness is a selectable option on it. If you prefer a set whose published range already covers the door, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest Single Cylinder Handleset with Hudson Knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Deltana 810871 Montego Handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial Handleset with Eleganti Knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.

Eight: Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19) and Polished Chrome (US26). All eight are offered in both left and right hand. Unlacquered brass is the one that changes with time rather than staying put, so if you are matching a fleet of existing doors that were done in US3NL, expect the new set to start bright and catch up.

Two in the same function without the mortise prep: the Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob, listed for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy handleset with New Heaven lever from the Premiere Essentials Series, also 1-3/8 to 2 inch. Both cover a wider thickness range out of the box than the Middleton's 1-3/4 inch standard build, which is worth knowing on an older door that measures 1-3/8. What they are not is mortise trim, so they do not share the Middleton's ANSI A115.1 pocket.

The dummy 3052 takes no cylinder at all, so there is nothing to key and nothing to match. Where the keying question does come up is on the working Middleton entrance sets in the same family, which run Schlage C keyway, so a property already keyed to Schlage C can bring the working openings onto the existing key while the dummy leaves stay unkeyed.

The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a solid brass handleset in an American Classic style. Comparable solid brass sets include the Deltana 803871B Hanover Handleset, the Deltana 815871 St. Ann Handleset, and the Deltana 825871 Kingston Handleset, all entry function. The Middleton is dummy function and accepts brass knob or lever inside trim; the Deltana sets are entry function, so they are the choice when the door needs an operating latch rather than a fixed pull.

No. The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a non-electronic brass mortise dummy handleset. The Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock pairs a Ridgefield handleset with a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the BYRD226NRRX is the standalone touchscreen version over the same thickness range. Those bore a deadbolt and carry electronics; the Middleton is a mortise-prepped, non-keyed set with no deadbolt of its own.

Both are non-keyed. The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona Style Handleset with Seville Lever is a Grade 2 set built on a J Series bored prep for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a solid brass dummy handleset on a standard mortise ANSI A115.1 prep with a UL 180 minute fire rating, and it requires handing. The JE285 operates a latch on entrance function; the Middleton dummy is a pull with fixed trim.

The Emtek 3052 Middleton is specified by fire rating rather than by residential grade: it carries a UL 180 minute fire rating and uses a standard mortise ANSI A115.1 door prep with an ANSI F20 or F13 UL function. Among the graded residential handlesets, the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D Single Cylinder Deadbolt Handleset is Grade 2 entrance function, and the Kwikset 687BW SMT Belleview Single Cylinder Handleset is Grade 3 entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a non-electronic dummy handleset. For a keypad opening, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente Handleset pairs a Halifax lever interior trim with a Contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt, SmartKey, RCAL latch and RCS strike, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX pairs a key free touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield passage handleset and trim, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a brass mortise dummy set, so it needs a mortise pocket in the door and a separate operating lock. On a bored prep, the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington Single Cylinder Handleset in satin nickel covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 687AMD SMC Amador Single Cylinder Handleset uses an SC1 keyway with SmartKey, Grade 3, for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are single-piece keyed entry sets rather than a dummy plus a separate mortise lock.

Purely mechanical, no wiring, no batteries, no power supply. If you want a handleset with an electronic deadbolt on the same door, that is a different product entirely, such as the Yale Assure Lock touchscreen deadbolts with the Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, or the Kwikset 815 San Clemente handleset with a SmartCode keypad deadbolt at 1-3/4 inch.

Residential. The Middleton is Emtek's brass residential trim, so it suits single family, high end multi-family unit entries and light hospitality rather than a commercial opening on a Grade 1 spec. If you are writing a facility standard that calls for a graded commercial lockset, this is not the line to standardize on.

The Emtek 3052 Middleton is ordered with any brass knob or lever for the inside trim, chosen at order. Baldwin offers the Wesley Handleset in paired trim configurations as well: the 180WYHXATK is the Wesley Handleset with Alcott Knob and the 180WYHXCYK is the Wesley Handleset with Carnaby Knob, both entrance function. The difference is how the pairing is made - the Wesley sets are ordered as fixed handleset-and-knob combinations, while the Middleton inside trim is selected against one dummy handleset.

They solve different openings. The Schlage Residential JI18/19 is an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and Torino lever, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - a lever and deadbolt that retract together on a bored prep. The Emtek 3052 Middleton is a mortise handleset on a standard mortise ANSI A115.1 prep, dummy function and non-keyed, with a full grip handle on the exterior.
