Emtek 4809-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek 4809 Lausanne handleset actually latch, or is it just a pull?
Dummy function only. The Lausanne 4809 has no latch and no cylinder, so it does not operate or secure anything. It surface mounts and needs no door prep. Use it on the inactive leaf of a double door, on a closet or pantry door held by a ball catch or roller catch, or wherever you want the look of the entry handleset without a working lock. If the door has to latch, you need an entrance or keyed handleset instead.
2) What is the center-to-center on the Emtek 4809 Lausanne handleset, and will it cover my old handleset's holes?
5-1/2 inches center to center between the grip and the lower trim. That is the number to measure against the existing holes on the door before you pull the old set off. Since the Lausanne mounts to the surface with no prep, matching that 5-1/2 inch spacing is what decides whether it lands cleanly over what is already bored.
3) Do I have to specify handing on an Emtek dummy handleset?
Handing is required, right hand or left hand, and it matters most if you pick a lever for the inside trim, since a lever has to point toward the hinge side correctly. Knobs are symmetrical, but the order still takes the handing selection. Stand outside the door: if it is hinged on your right, it is right hand.
4) My door is 2 inches thick - which handlesets cover that if the Emtek 4809 Lausanne does not?
The Emtek 4809 Lausanne covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a 2 inch door, the Deltana 810871 Montego handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, as do the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder with Hudson knob and the Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy with Impresa knob. Going thicker still, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
5) The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is a dummy - what do I order if the door actually needs to lock?
The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is a non-keyed dummy handleset, so it does not latch or lock. For a keyed opening, the Schlage F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is a Grade 2 entrance function unit covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the Emtek 4809 covers. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador single cylinder handleset is a Grade 3 entrance handleset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder entry handleset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) What is a comparable dummy handleset to the Emtek 4809 Lausanne if I need a knob on the inside instead of a lever?
The Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset ships with the Impresa knob as its interior trim and is a dummy function handleset like the Emtek 4809 Lausanne. The Emtek 4809 gets there a different way: the interior trim is chosen at order time from the Emtek brass knob and lever range, so a knob such as the Orb, Round, or Laurent knob can be specified on the 4809 itself. The Weslock 6695 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, while the Emtek 4809 covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
7) Is the Schlage JE285 Barcelona non-keyed handleset the same thing as the Emtek 4809 Lausanne dummy?
No. The Schlage JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a non-keyed entrance function handleset, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - it operates a latch without a key. The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is dummy function and surface mounts with no door prep, so it has no latch at all and is used on a fixed or inactive leaf. Both are non-keyed, which is why they get confused, but only the Schlage JE285 latches the door.
8) Which finishes does the Emtek Lausanne handleset come in for matching the rest of my door hardware?
Eight: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Brass (US4) and French Antique (US7). All are on solid brass. Unlacquered brass is the one that will patina over time rather than hold its as-shipped look, which is worth knowing if you are trying to match adjacent openings years from now.
9) Is the Emtek Lausanne handleset rated for commercial traffic?
It is a residential product, tubular construction, in solid brass. For an apartment unit door, a model home, or a single family entry it is in its element. For a commercial opening under heavy daily traffic you would be shopping a graded lock instead, such as the Grade 2 Schlage Residential F60 Addison keyed handleset or the Grade 2 Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset.
10) What is a dummy handleset like the Emtek 4809 used for versus a keyed entry handleset?
A dummy is trim, not a lock. It gives a pair of doors or an inactive leaf the same grip and knob as the working side, with nothing to turn and nothing to key. A keyed entry handleset does the securing. If the 4809 is going on the inactive half of a double entry, the active half needs a keyed or entrance set beside it, and it should be the same series and finish so the pair reads as one.
11) What other dummy handlesets are there if the Emtek Lausanne is not the right look?
Two dummy-function handlesets from Weslock cover the same job: the 6695 Belmont with the Impresa knob and the 2815 Hillcrest with the New Heaven lever, both listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, which is a wider thickness band than the Lausanne's 1-3/8 to 1-3/4. If the door is a straight 2 inch slab, those are the ones to look at. If you want a solid brass grip in a traditional profile, Deltana's Montego 810871 handleset also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
12) What is the difference between the Emtek 4809 Lausanne handleset and the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont mortise trim?
The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is entrance function mortise trim for 1-3/4 inch doors and is offered in single cylinder and double cylinder versions. The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is a tubular dummy handleset in brass for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Baldwin 6542 drives a mortise lock body and requires a mortise pocket in the door; the Emtek 4809 is surface mount with no door prep.
13) I want a solid brass handleset like the Emtek 4809 Lausanne but with an entry function - what else is solid brass?
Deltana offers several solid brass entry handlesets: the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann, and the 825871 Kingston are all entry function solid brass handlesets. The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is brass as well, but it is dummy function and non-keyed, so the Deltana entry sets are where you go when the opening needs a working latch in the same material.
14) Can I use an electronic handleset in place of the Emtek 4809 Lausanne on the same door?
The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is a non-electronic mechanical handleset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The electronic alternatives sit in different thickness ranges: the Yale Assure BYRD226CBARX Wi-Fi Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset and the standalone BYRD226NRRX both cover 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Kwikset 815SCEHFL San Clemente handleset with Halifax lever and contemporary SmartCode keypad deadbolt is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. On a 1-3/8 inch door none of those apply, and all three require deadbolt bore prep the surface-mounted Emtek 4809 does not.
15) Does the Emtek 4809 Lausanne carry an ANSI grade like the Schlage and Kwikset handlesets?
The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is a residential brass handleset in dummy function, which is a non-latching trim. Among the graded residential peers, the Schlage F60 Addison and JE285 Barcelona are Grade 2, the Master Lock HDLB series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is Grade 2, and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview are Grade 3. Those grades describe keyed and latching entrance functions; for a facility standardizing on a graded entrance set, the Grade 2 Schlage F60 is the closest match in the 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range the Emtek 4809 also serves.
16) The Kwikset 687 Amador is listed as exterior only - how does that compare to ordering the Emtek 4809 Lausanne?
The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder keyed handlesets are supplied as exterior trim only, so inside trim is a separate purchase. The Emtek 4809 Lausanne is sold as a complete set with the interior knob or lever specified at order time from the Emtek brass range. Both the Kwikset 687AMD and 687BW are Grade 3 entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, while the Emtek 4809 is a dummy for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
17) Can I get the Emtek 4809 with a different finish inside than outside?
Yes. A split finish is an optional call-out on the order, so the exterior grip can run one finish and the interior knob or lever another. Useful when the exterior has to match the other street-facing doors while the inside follows the room's finish scheme.
18) Is the Emtek Lausanne handleset solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass, both the material and the substrate, in Emtek's Brass collection. That matters on an exterior opening where a zinc casting under plating is the usual failure point, and it is why the unlacquered brass option can be left to weather rather than needing to be protected.
19) Baldwin Wesley handlesets come with the knob already paired - how is that different from ordering the Emtek 4809 Lausanne?
The Baldwin Wesley handleset is ordered as a fixed pairing, such as Wesley with the Alcott knob or Wesley with the Carnaby knob, both entrance function. The Emtek 4809 Lausanne instead takes the interior knob or lever as a selection at order time across the Emtek brass knob and lever range, and handing must be given if a lever is used inside. Note the Baldwin Wesley sets are entrance function while the Emtek 4809 is dummy.
