Emtek 4706 Transitional Heritage Sectional Dummy Entrance Handleset - Brass Tubular

It's trim only. The 4706 Transitional Heritage handleset is a dummy function, non-keyed, with no latch and no cylinder. Nothing moves or secures the door. Use it on an inactive leaf of a French pair, on a fixed panel, or as a pull on a door that's held by a separate flush bolt or surface bolt. If you need the door to latch or lock, you need an entrance or single cylinder handleset instead.

No door prep is needed. The 4706 is surface mounted, so it fastens to the face of the door without a cross bore or latch bore. That makes it a clean choice for an inactive leaf you don't want drilled, or for a slab already finished. It suits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick.

The grip mounts on 5-1/2 inch centers. If you're swapping out an existing handleset, measure the existing fastener centers: at 5-1/2 inches the 4706 lines up with that spacing, and anything different means new holes and old ones to fill. Because the 4706 is surface mounted with no latch prep, an existing 2-1/8 inch cross bore from a keyed handleset will be left exposed unless the escutcheon covers it.

Handing is a required selection, right hand or left hand, and it matters if you pick a lever for the inside trim, since a lever has to point the correct way. Knobs are symmetrical, but the handing choice is still part of the order. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it's right hand.

It's sold as a complete set, and the inside trim is chosen as part of the order. Any Emtek brass knob or lever can be paired with it, and the selection list runs from levers like Stuttgart, Helios, Athena, Hermes, Luzern, Cortina and Milano through knobs such as The Ace, Spoke, Orb, Round, Egg, Providence and Victoria, plus crystal options like Windsor, Bristol, Diamond and Georgetown. You don't order a separate interior trim item.

Pair the dummy on the inactive leaf with a keyed handleset on the active leaf, matched in style and finish so the pair reads as one set. Among other brands ZenSupply carries, Schlage Residential's F60 Addison keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is a Grade 2 option covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset covers the same thickness range. Weslock also makes matched pairs within one series, for example the 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder and the 2815 Hillcrest dummy, both for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.

The Emtek 4706 Transitional Heritage handleset is a dummy function set in brass. Two other dummy-function handlesets are the Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever, both listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Emtek 4706 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so the Weslock sets reach thicker doors if the slab is over 1-3/4 inch.

Anything sold as a handleset with a deadbolt is not a swap for the Emtek 4706, which is a non-keyed dummy set that surface mounts with no door prep. The Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente pairs its handleset with a SmartCode electronic deadbolt, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock uses a standalone touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield handleset. Both need bored deadbolt and latch prep in the door and are for 1-3/4 inch slabs.

The Emtek 4706 is a dummy set - it is fixed trim with no latch. If you want non-keyed but working hardware, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona handleset with Seville lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed entry function set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same range the 4706 fits.

The Emtek 4706 is specified for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a 2 inch slab, the Deltana 810871 Montego handleset lists 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset also lists 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Above that, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial single cylinder handleset covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.

Seven finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) and Satin Brass (US4). Unlacquered brass is a living finish and will patina with handling, so it's not the pick if you want the entry to stay uniform across several openings. There's also a split finish option if you want the exterior grip in one finish and the interior trim in another.

The 4706 is brass, both material and substrate, and it is a residential product. For a commercial opening under a hardware schedule you want a Grade 1 or Grade 2 device instead. Brass holds up well in coastal and humid exteriors, which is the usual reason a builder specifies it for a front entry.

Tubular. The 4706 is a tubular type handleset in Emtek's brass Transitional Heritage line, not a mortise trim set. That matters if you're comparing against mortise entry trim such as Baldwin's Estates 6542 Tremont, which mounts to a mortise lock case in a 1-3/4 inch door and requires a full mortise pocket in the stile. Since the 4706 is a surface mounted dummy, no pocket and no bore are involved at all.

The Emtek 4706 is a surface mount dummy set, so backset is not a factor for it. If you need working hardware and the bore location is uncertain, the Sure-Loc Alta (SUR-AT507) is a tubular handleset with an adjustable backset, and the Sure-Loc Aspen (SUR-AN507) and Madison (SUR-MA507) are keyed entry handlesets with adjustable backset.

The Emtek 4706 is sold as a complete set, with the inside trim ordered as any brass knob or lever. If you need exterior trim only, the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder keyed handlesets are Grade 3 exterior-only sets for 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 4706 is a residential handleset. If your job calls out a graded set, the Master Lock HDLB series HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset, and the Schlage Residential F60 Addison is Grade 2 entrance function; the Kwikset 687AMD Amador is Grade 3.

Sectional. The exterior grip mounts as separate upper and lower sections on 5-1/2 inch centers rather than one continuous backplate, which leaves more of the door face visible. If you're matching an existing full plate handleset on an adjacent opening, a sectional will not look the same, so match the style family rather than just the finish.

No. It's fully mechanical, non-electronic, and non-keyed, so there's no power, no battery pack and no keypad to maintain. If you want a smart entry on the same door, that comes from a separate electronic deadbolt product, for example a Yale Assure touchscreen deadbolt with 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.
