Emtek 4807-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek 4807 Ares dummy handleset need a bore or door prep?
No prep at all. The 4807 Ares is surface mount, so it fastens to the face of the door without boring a cross bore or latch bore. That is what makes it the usual choice for the inactive leaf of a French pair or a fixed door where you want the look of the working handleset without cutting the slab.
2) Why does a dummy handleset ask for handing?
Handing is required on the 4807 Ares when you spec a lever for the inside trim, because a lever has to point toward the hinge side and cannot be flipped after the fact. Order it right hand or left hand to match the door. If you pick a knob for the interior instead, the handing choice stops mattering to the way the trim sits.
3) Can I match the inside knob or lever on the Emtek 4807 to the rest of my doors?
That is how it is ordered. The interior trim on the 4807 Ares is a required selection, and the range runs across contemporary bar and square styles (L-Square, T-Bar, R-Bar in faceted, hammered, knurled, Tribeca and white marble), traditional knobs and levers (Providence, Waverly, Rope, Ribbon and Reed, Victoria, Milano, Turino), crystal knobs (Bristol, Windsor, Georgetown, Old Town), and named levers like Stuttgart, Helios, Athena, Hermes and Poseidon. Pick the same trim family already on your other openings and the pair reads as one set.
4) I want the same handleset look on both leaves of a French door pair. What do I order?
Order the working leaf as a keyed or entrance handleset and the inactive leaf as the 4807 Ares dummy. Because the dummy is surface mount with no bore, the inactive slab stays uncut, and specifying the same finish and the same interior knob or lever style on both sides makes the pair read identically from the outside.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek 4807 Ares dummy handleset from another brand?
The Emtek 4807 Ares is a dummy-function handleset, meaning it has no latch or lock mechanism and simply mounts to the door face. Two comparable dummy handlesets are the Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob, which carries a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever, also 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The 4807 Ares fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch and is built in brass. If the inactive leaf of a pair of doors needs a handleset that visually matches an active leaf, all three are dummy function and will do that job; the choice comes down to interior trim style and the finish family you are matching.
6) I need a handleset that actually locks, not a dummy. What should I order instead of the Emtek 4807 Ares?
The 4807 Ares is non-keyed with a dummy function, so it will not secure an opening. For a keyed exterior door, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Handleset with Accent Lever is a Grade 2 entrance-function set fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same thickness range the 4807 covers. The Kwikset 687AMD SMT Amador Single Cylinder Handleset is a Grade 3 entrance handleset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset. On a brass-collection interior door where the 4807 was chosen for looks, a dummy remains correct; on the front door, one of the keyed sets above is the part you want.
7) Which handleset works on a 2 inch thick door if the Emtek 4807 Ares does not?
The Emtek 4807 Ares Ares is rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so a 2 inch slab is outside its range. Handlesets that reach 2 inch include the Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset, both 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 810871 Montego Handleset at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. For thicker slabs still, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial Handleset with Eleganti Knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Measure the slab at the lock edge before ordering, since a handleset spindle and through-bolts cut for 1-3/4 inch will not make up on a heavier door.
8) Is the Emtek 4807 Ares handleset a substitute for a Baldwin mortise entry trim?
No. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont trim comes in single cylinder and double cylinder entry versions, both entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and is mortise trim that dresses a mortise lock body prepped into the door edge. The Emtek 4807 Ares is a tubular dummy handleset that surface mounts with no door prep. If the door already carries a mortise pocket, the 4807 will not fill or drive it, and the Baldwin 6542 single or double cylinder trim is the correct family. If the door is unprepped and only needs a pull-through appearance, the 4807 is the simpler part.
9) What finishes does the Emtek 4807 Ares handleset come in?
Seven: 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 the living finish, so it will darken and patina in use rather than stay as delivered. There is also a split finish option if you want the exterior plate in one finish and the interior trim in another.
10) What else could I use instead of the Emtek 4807 if I need a dummy handleset for a thicker door?
Two dummy handlesets we carry go past 1-3/4 inch: the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever, both rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If your slab is a heavy 2 inch entry door, those clear it where the 4807 Ares stops at 1-3/4.
11) Is the Emtek 4807 Ares sold as a complete set or do I buy the inside trim separately?
Complete set. The exterior Ares plate and grip ship with the interior knob or lever you select, so there is no second line item for the inside trim. What you specify is the finish, the interior knob or lever style, and the handing.
12) Is the Emtek 4807 Ares handleset meant for a commercial opening?
It is a residential product, tubular type and non-keyed, so it is not written to a commercial cycle or grade standard. For multi-family or hospitality work it suits interior and decorative openings where the door does not carry a lock; for a graded lockset on a rated or high traffic opening, look to a Grade 2 handleset such as the Schlage Residential F60 Addison or the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset.
13) What is a non-keyed handleset alternative to the Emtek 4807 Ares that still latches?
The 4807 Ares is dummy function, so it neither latches nor locks. The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona Style Handleset with Seville Lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed set fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the 4807 covers, and gives a working latch without a key. That distinction matters on a door that must stay closed against a draft or a stop: a dummy set only pulls, so if a landlord is replacing hardware on an interior door that needs to hold shut, the JE285 is the closer match, while the 4807 suits an inactive leaf or a closet slab that latches by another means.
14) Does the Emtek 4807 Ares handleset carry an ANSI grade like the Schlage or Kwikset handlesets?
The Emtek 4807 Ares is a residential handleset. Among comparable handlesets, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison is Grade 2, the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is Grade 2, and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador is Grade 3. Those grades describe cycle and strength testing of a working latch and lock, which is why they attach to keyed and latching sets. The 4807 Ares is dummy function with no latch or lock to cycle, so for a facility spec that calls out a graded entry set, one of the graded entrance handlesets above answers the requirement, and the 4807 covers the openings where the spec calls for matching trim only.
15) I want a keypad or smart handleset instead of the Emtek 4807 Ares. What are the options?
The 4807 Ares is a non-electronic handleset. For electronic entry, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente Handleset pairs Halifax lever interior trim with a Contemporary SmartCode keypad deadbolt and SmartKey, on 1-3/4 inch doors. The Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with the Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, the BYRD226NRRX is the standalone touchscreen version at the same thickness range, and the BYRD256 CBARX is a key-free Wi-Fi touchscreen with the Ridgefield passage handleset. These all need a prepped bore and, for the connected models, a network plan, none of which the surface-mounted 4807 requires.
16) Which solid brass handlesets compare to the Emtek 4807 Ares?
The Emtek 4807 Ares is brass through the substrate and belongs to Emtek's Brass collection. Comparable solid brass handlesets include the Deltana 803871B Hanover Handleset, the Deltana 815871 St. Ann Handleset, and the Deltana 825871 Kingston Handleset, all entry function in solid brass. The functional split is the deciding factor: the Deltana sets are entry function and are meant to secure a door, while the 4807 Ares is a dummy pull. Where a buyer wants the same brass look on both a working entry and a fixed leaf, pairing one of the Deltana entry sets with a dummy handleset is a common way to keep the elevation consistent.
17) What is the difference between the Emtek 4807 Ares handleset and a Kwikset exterior-only handleset trim?
The Kwikset 687AMD SMT Amador and the 687AMD SMC version with the SC1 keyway are single cylinder keyed entry handlesets supplied as exterior trim only, Grade 3 for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 687BW Belleview is the same arrangement in the Belleview style. Exterior-only means the interior side is not in the carton and has to come from a matching deadbolt and knob or lever. The Emtek 4807 Ares is sold as a complete set with the inside trim ordered as part of it, choosing from a knob or lever style, and handing is required when a lever is used inside. So the 4807 arrives ready to hang both faces; the Kwikset exterior-only parts are a half of an assembly and need the other half specified.
18) Is an interconnected lock the same thing as the Emtek 4807 Ares handleset?
No. 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, where the lever retracts the latch and the deadbolt together in one motion. The Emtek 4807 Ares is a dummy handleset with a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center grip and no latch, deadbolt, or key. They cover the same visual footprint on a door but do opposite jobs: the JI18/19 is specified for a unit entry that needs single-motion egress, while the 4807 is trim on a leaf that does not operate.
19) Are the Baldwin Wesley handlesets an alternative to the Emtek 4807 Ares?
The Baldwin Wesley Handleset is offered with Alcott knob trim and with Carnaby knob trim, both entrance function. Entrance function means the set secures the opening, so those are the choice for a door that has to lock. The Emtek 4807 Ares is a dummy set and would be the pick for the fixed leaf beside it or a decorative front-face application. Both approaches let you select the interior knob, so a buyer standardizing a building elevation can run the Baldwin Wesley on operating doors and a dummy handleset where no latch is wanted.
20) What is a simpler keyed handleset option covering the same door thicknesses as the Emtek 4807 Ares?
The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington Single Cylinder Handleset in satin nickel is an entry-function set covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, matching the door thickness range of the Emtek 4807 Ares. The Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range as a Grade 2 entrance set. Both are single-finish, single-configuration parts, whereas the 4807 is ordered by finish across seven choices with the inside knob or lever style specified separately. On a turnover where one door needs to lock and the schedule is tight, a fixed-configuration set is fewer decisions to get wrong.
