Emtek 4806 Orion Dummy Entrance Handleset - Brass Tubular

It is a dummy set, non-keyed, with no latch and no locking. The Orion 4806 is a fixed trim pair used where the door does not need to latch, typically an inactive leaf of a double door or a pantry/closet door held shut by a roller catch or ball catch. If you need a locking exterior opening, you want a keyed entrance handleset instead.

1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, which covers standard interior slabs and standard 1-3/4 inch exterior doors. There is a door thickness field on the order so you can state the actual slab you are working with. If your door runs thicker than 1-3/4, look at the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy handleset, which is listed for 1-3/8 to 2 inches.

Handing is required when a lever is used on the inside trim, because the lever has to point toward the hinge side and cannot be flipped. You specify Right Hand or Left Hand on the order. If you choose a knob for the interior, the handing choice is still collected but the knob itself is symmetrical.

Check the center-to-center first. The Orion 4806 mounts on a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing between the upper and lower fixing points. If your existing handleset uses different spacing, or if the old set was bored through for a latch and deadbolt, the surface-mount Orion plates may not conceal the old prep.

The Emtek 4806 Orion is non-keyed dummy trim, so it cannot secure an opening. For a keyed exterior door, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is a Grade 2 single cylinder keyed entry handleset covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the 4806 covers. The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder entry handleset in satin nickel, also 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson knob is a single cylinder handleset for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.

The Emtek 4806 Orion is a dummy function handleset, so it has no latch or keying at all. Two other dummy handlesets cover the same job: the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever, a dummy function unit in the Premiere Essentials Series with a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, and the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob, a dummy function handleset in the Elegance Series also rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Emtek 4806 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and mounts to the surface with no door prep, while the Weslock dummies are styled traditional rather than the contemporary look of the Orion.

Yes. The Emtek 4806 Orion is dummy function, surface mounted with no door prep, so it does not latch. If you want a handleset that operates a latch but takes no key, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function handleset, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the same door thickness range as the 4806.

The Emtek 4806 Orion is rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a 2 inch door, the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy handleset and the Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset both cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 810871 Montego handleset is also rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. For thicker still, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial single cylinder handleset covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.

It ships as a complete set. You pick the interior trim when you order, from Emtek's brass knob and lever range, and it comes in the box with the exterior handle. Options run from contemporary bars and knurled knobs (T-Bar Knurled, L-Square Tribeca, Conical Knurled) through classic levers and knobs (Turino, Milano, Victoria, Providence) to crystal knobs like Windsor and Georgetown.

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). There is also a split finish option on the order if you want the exterior handle in one finish and the interior trim in another, which is common when the outside has to match exterior hardware and the inside has to match the rest of the house.

Two dummy handlesets worth comparing 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 to 2 inch doors. Both are dummy function like the Orion 4806, so they are trim only with no latching. The Emtek is the one to keep if you want brass construction and a wide choice of interior knob or lever styles.

No. The Emtek 4806 Orion is a non-electronic, non-keyed dummy handleset - it has no deadbolt and no electronics. If the opening needs a keypad, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset pairs Halifax lever trim with a Contemporary SmartCode electronic deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock standalone touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Yale BYRD226CBARX adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth over the same door range.

The Emtek 4806 Orion is a residential tubular handleset in a dummy function. Where a graded product is required, the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset in the HDLB Series, and the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is a Grade 2 keyed entry handleset. Kwikset's 687BW Belleview and 687AMD Amador single cylinder handlesets are Grade 3.

No - they prep the door differently. The Emtek 4806 Orion is a tubular handleset that surface mounts with no door prep required. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim, offered in single cylinder and double cylinder versions for 1-3/4 inch doors, is trim for a mortise lock body and needs a mortise pocket in the door. If the door is already mortised, the 4806 is not the replacement.

The Emtek 4806 Orion is a surface mount dummy with no door prep required, so backset is not a factor - but it also does not latch. If you need a working handleset and the backset is unknown, the Sure-Loc Alta tubular handleset, the Sure-Loc Aspen single cylinder keyed entry handleset, the Sure-Loc Madison keyed entry handleset and the Sure-Loc Coral handleset are all built with an adjustable backset.

They are not equivalent. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview are Grade 3 single cylinder keyed entry handlesets supplied as exterior trim only, for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek 4806 Orion is sold as a complete set with inside trim selected from Emtek brass knobs and levers, and it is a dummy, so no key or latch is involved.

The handleset is brass, both the material and the substrate, and it sits in Emtek's Brass collection with contemporary styling. It is classified as residential hardware, so for a commercial opening with traffic and code requirements you would specify a graded commercial lockset rather than this set.

The Emtek 4806 Orion is a solid brass handleset with a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing and contemporary styling, offered in finishes including Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Polished Nickel US14, Satin Nickel US15, Flat Black US19, Polished Chrome US26, Unlacquered Brass US3NL and Satin Brass US4. On the traditional side, Deltana's solid brass entry handlesets include the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann and the 825871 Kingston. The Deltana units are entry function; the Orion 4806 is dummy only.
