Emtek 7059-US7 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek 7059 Rope sideplate dummy set actually latch, or is it just decorative trim?
Dummy function, so nothing latches and nothing turns a bolt. The 7059 Rope sideplate set is fixed trim, sold as a pair for the two faces of a door that stays put or is held by a roller catch, ball catch, or magnetic catch you supply separately. Buyers who need a working latch should order the passage version of the sideplate instead, and one that locks should look at a privacy or keyed function.
2) Do I have to bore the door for an Emtek 7-1/2 inch Rope dummy sideplate?
No boring. The Rope sideplate dummy mounts on the surface of the door face, so there is no 2-1/8 inch cross bore and no edge bore to cut. That makes it a clean choice on a slab that has never been prepped, and on an existing door it will not cover a standard 2-1/8 inch hole from a previous lockset, so plug and refinish first if you are replacing a bored lock.
3) What door thickness does the Emtek 7059 sideplate dummy fit?
1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, which covers both the common older interior slab and standard modern door stock. There is also a door thickness field on the order, so if your door falls outside that band, state the actual measurement when you order rather than assuming it will make up the difference.
4) Is handing required when ordering an Emtek Rope sideplate dummy?
Handing is required on this set, right hand or left hand, and it is required for lever styles in particular so the lever falls correctly toward the stop. Stand outside the door, on the side it swings away from: hinges on your right is right hand. Get it wrong on a lever and the handle points the wrong way on both faces, since a dummy pair has no reversible spindle to flip on site.
5) What is the closest alternative to the Emtek 7059 Rope sideplate dummy set if the door also needs a working deadbolt?
The Emtek 7059 Rope is a dummy function set, so it has no live deadbolt at all - the trim is fixed and the door holds shut by other means. Where the opening needs a key-operated deadbolt integrated into the same sideplate look, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, and the Omnia D12036AC is the double cylinder version of the same lever lockset, which requires a key on both the inside and outside. Choose the 7059 for an inactive leaf or a closet-style opening, and the Omnia single or double cylinder where the door has to lock.
6) Is there another brass dummy sideplate set that works the same way as the Emtek 7059 Rope?
Yes. The Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates, in a double dummy function, with 5-1/2 inch center to center spacing between the plate and the lever. The Emtek 7059 Rope is also a dummy function set in brass, sized 7-1/2 inches on the sideplate, sold as a pair. Both are non-operating trim; the difference a buyer feels is the plate length and center to center layout, so measure the existing plate footprint before swapping one for the other.
7) What is included with the Emtek 7059 dummy sideplate pair, and what do I still need to buy?
It ships as a complete set, both sideplates plus the knob or lever trim you select. Because it is dummy function there is no working latch holding the door shut, so plan on a separate catch, and on a French or double door you will also need whatever flush bolts or a surface bolt the opening calls for. Hinges are not part of the set.
8) Can I match the Emtek Rope sideplate to the knobs and levers on my other doors?
The knob or lever style is a separate required selection on this sideplate, drawn from Emtek's full brass trim range, so the same 7059 Rope plate can carry a Rope Knob, Rope Lever, Providence Knob, Milano Lever, a crystal knob such as Windsor or Georgetown, or one of the modern bar and knurled styles like T-Bar Knurled or Conical Knurled. If a property has Emtek trim on adjoining openings, pick the matching style code and the dummy door reads as part of the same suite.
9) What finishes does the Emtek 7059 Rope sideplate come in?
Five: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and French Antique (US7). Two of those behave differently over time. Unlacquered brass has no coating and will darken and patina with handling, which is the point on a period restoration but a nuisance in a rental where a tenant expects it to stay bright. Polished Brass Lifetime holds its shine. On a dummy door the trim gets touched less than a working lockset, so patina develops unevenly against adjacent working knobs.
10) Is the Emtek 7059 sideplate lockset rated for commercial traffic?
It is a residential product, solid brass, in a traditional style. On the commercial side that puts it in owner suites, hotel guest room closets, executive offices, and multi-family unit interiors rather than on a corridor or stairwell opening. Facilities standardizing on graded hardware for high-traffic openings should be specifying a Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical or mortise lock instead.
11) What size is the Emtek 7059 sideplate, and will it cover the marks left by my old plate?
The plate is 7-1/2 inches, the dimension given for this model. Emtek sideplates run in more than one length, so if you are replacing an existing plate, measure the one on the door and any shadow or unfinished paint line around it before ordering. A 7-1/2 inch plate will not hide the footprint of a longer one.
12) I need a dummy sideplate pair but not in the Rope pattern. What else is there?
Omnia's D12036PD is a solid brass double dummy lever lockset with plates, at 5-1/2 inch center to center, so it is a shorter plate and a lever rather than a choice of knob or lever trim. If the same opening turns out to need a working bolt rather than fixed trim, Omnia builds the same plate design as the D12036A single cylinder and the D12036AC double cylinder deadbolt leversets.
13) The Omnia D12036A and the Emtek 7059 both look like sideplate sets - can one replace the other on a locking door?
They are not interchangeable on a door that must lock. The Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset, meaning it takes a key outside and a thumbturn inside. The Emtek 7059 Rope is non-keyed with a dummy function, so it provides trim only and no latching or bolting action. Substituting the 7059 onto an opening that currently carries the D12036A leaves the door with no security hardware.
14) Is the Emtek 7059 dummy sideplate keyed, and can it be keyed alike with my other doors?
There is no cylinder in it at all. The 7059 Rope sideplate is non-keyed dummy trim, so there is nothing to key, rekey, or bring into a master key system. A locksmith standardizing a keyway across a house or building should treat this opening as excluded and count only the keyed doors.
15) Does the Emtek Rope sideplate dummy need power or wiring?
No. It is a mechanical, non-electronic set with no wiring, no batteries, and no credential reader, so nothing about it changes when the power drops. Nothing needs to be run through the door or the frame for it.
