Emtek 4202 Melrose Dummy Entrance Handleset - Brass Tubular

It is a dummy set, non-keyed, with no working latch or bolt. The Melrose 4202 is surface mounted trim only, so it pulls the door and nothing more. Use it on the inactive leaf of a double door, on a closet or pantry door, or on a door held by a roller catch or ball catch. If you need the door to latch or lock, a dummy is the wrong function.

Handing is required because the inside trim has to be oriented, and Emtek calls it out specifically when a lever is used inside. You pick Right Hand or Left Hand when ordering the 4202. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right, it is right hand. Get this wrong with a lever inside and the lever points the wrong way.

Three things. The exterior finish, the inside knob or lever style, and the handing. The 4202 ships as a complete set, exterior grip plus the interior trim you chose, so there is no separate interior knob to order. A split finish, different finish inside from out, can be specified as well.

The 4202 Melrose is non-keyed dummy trim, so it neither latches nor locks. For a keyed opening in the same handleset format, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Handleset with Accent Lever is Grade 2 entrance function with a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, matching the Melrose thickness range. The Kwikset 687AMD SMT Amador Single Cylinder Handleset is Grade 3 entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont Single Cylinder Entry Mortise Trim is entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, so a 2 inch door is outside its range. The Deltana 810871 Montego Handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest Single Cylinder Handleset with Hudson Knob 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. The Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob is the dummy-function option in that group at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose is a residential handleset. Where a facility spec calls for a graded handleset, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Handleset is Grade 2, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona Style Handleset with Seville Lever is Grade 2, the Master Lock HDLB Series Single Cylinder Deadbolt Handleset is Grade 2, and the Kwikset 687BW Belleview Single Cylinder Handleset is Grade 3.

They are not the same function. The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona Style Handleset with Seville Lever is non-keyed but entrance function, so it operates a latch. The Emtek 4202 Melrose is dummy function, surface mount with no door prep required, meaning it is fixed trim with no latch behind it. If the leaf needs to close and stay shut, the JE285 is the working option; if it is a false or inactive leaf held by a roller catch or flush bolts, the 4202 is the pull.

Any brass knob or lever in the Emtek line can be ordered as the inside trim, and there are 89 styles to choose from, running from plain levers like the Cortina, Milano and Athena through knurled and faceted bar designs to crystal knobs like the Windsor and Bristol. That is how you match the dummy on an inactive leaf to whatever trim is already on the rest of the openings.

That is the common use. Because it is a dummy with no bolt and mounts on the surface, it gives the inactive leaf a matching grip without cutting the door, and the leaf is held by whatever flush bolts or catch you already have. Order it in the same finish as the active leaf's handleset and pick the same inside knob or lever style so the pair reads as one set.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose is offered in Satin Nickel (US15) along with Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Brass (US4), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), and French Antique (US7). If the opening needs a keyed handleset in that same tone, the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington Single Cylinder Handleset comes in a satin nickel finish and is entry function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, matching the Melrose thickness range.

Handing is required on the Emtek 4202 Melrose when a lever is used for the inside trim, and the set ships right hand or left hand accordingly; the 4202 can be ordered with any brass knob or lever for that inside trim and is sold as a complete set. Among comparable handlesets that also pair an interior trim piece, the Baldwin Wesley Handleset is offered as 180WYHXATK with the Alcott knob and 180WYHXCYK with the Carnaby knob, both entrance function, where the interior trim is fixed by the part number rather than chosen at order time.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose is non-electronic. For a keypad or smart handleset, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente Handleset with Halifax Lever pairs a Contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt with SmartKey on a 1-3/4 inch door, the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock Wi-Fi Bluetooth Touchscreen Deadbolt with Ridgefield Handleset covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX is the standalone touchscreen version of that same Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose is a tubular brass handleset in dummy function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, surface mounted with no door prep. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is mortise trim in entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, offered as the 6542ENTR single cylinder and the 6542DBLC double cylinder, so it dresses a mortise lock body rather than working as a tubular set. That makes the two different installs, not two versions of the same one.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose is brass but dummy function. In solid brass with an entry function, the Deltana 803871B Hanover Handleset, the Deltana 815871 St. Ann Handleset, and the Deltana 825871 Kingston Handleset are all solid brass entry handlesets, each in its own series - Hanover, St. Ann, and Kingston respectively. The Deltana 810871 Montego Handleset covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose is non-keyed dummy trim, so it does not provide a latch or a deadbolt. The Schlage Residential JI18/19 Interconnected Passage Lock with Keyed Deadbolt and Torino Lever combines a passage function with a keyed deadbolt, is Grade 2, and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same thickness range the 4202 Melrose covers. The Master Lock HDLB Series Single Cylinder Deadbolt Handleset is a Grade 2 entrance handleset with a deadbolt.

The Emtek 4202 Melrose covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so it handles standard interior and most residential exterior leaves but not thicker doors. Where a fleet includes 2 inch or thicker leaves, the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever runs to 2 inch, the Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob runs to 2 inch, and the Yale Real Living BYRD256CBARX Assure Lock 2 Key-Free Touchscreen Deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield Handleset spans 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The 4202 Melrose being surface mount with no door prep required means the same set drops onto any leaf in its range regardless of existing bore.

Not on the same opening. The Emtek 4202 Melrose is dummy function and surface mount with no door prep, so it is a fixed pull. A passage set operates a latch and needs the door bored for it - the Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX Assure Key Free Touchscreen Deadbolt with Ridgefield Passage Handleset and Trim is a passage-style handleset and fits 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, which is a different thickness range than the 4202 Melrose 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Order the dummy when the leaf does not move and the passage set when it does.

They fill a different need. The Kwikset 687AMD SMT Amador and 687BW SMT Belleview are single cylinder keyed entry handlesets supplied as exterior trim only, both Grade 3 entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the 687AMD SMC is the same Amador with an SC1 keyway and SmartKey. The Emtek 4202 Melrose is sold as a complete set and can be ordered with any brass knob or lever for the inside trim, so it arrives with both sides of the opening covered.
