Emtek 7552 Rectangular 8-7/8" Non-Keyed Sideplate Lockset, Dummy (Pair) - Sandcast Bronze Tubular

The 7552 is a dummy function, so there is no latching and no bore prep. It surface mounts to the door face, which means no 2-1/8 inch cross bore is cut for it. Sold as a pair, so you get trim on both faces, which is what you want on a closet door, a French door slave leaf, or any leaf that is held shut by a roller catch or ball catch you supply separately.

Door thickness range on the 7552 runs 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so a standard 1-3/8 inch interior door and a 1-3/4 inch commercial-weight door are both covered. There is a door thickness field on the order, so state the actual leaf thickness when you place it.

Handing is required, right hand or left hand, and it matters on any lever. A lever has to point toward the latch edge, so a left hand lever on a right hand door hangs backwards. Stand outside the door, on the side it swings away from: hinges on the right is right hand. Knobs are symmetrical, but the order still asks for handing because the sideplate itself is oriented.

No. The 7552 is non-keyed with no cylinder and no latch mechanism behind the plate, so it cannot be converted. If the opening needs to lock, you want a keyed sideplate set instead. Omnia offers keyed sideplate leversets in the same style of layout, the D12036A single cylinder and the D12036AC double cylinder, the latter keyed on both sides for a door with glass beside it.

The 7552 is a dummy set: it is non-keyed and has no operating latch function, so it will not secure an opening. For a keyed opening on a sideplate, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, and the Omnia D12036AC is a double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset with sideplate design. Single cylinder takes a key outside and a thumbturn inside; double cylinder is keyed on both sides, which is the choice where a glass panel sits next to the door.

Any Sandcast Bronze knob or lever from the collection mounts on the 7552 plate, and the inside trim style is a required choice on the order. Ten levers: Aurora, Bryce, Cimarron, Cody, Durango, Lariat, Mariposa, Montrose, Teton, Yuma. Fifteen knobs: Butte, Egg, Round, Winchester, Bristol, Hampton, Lowell, Windsor, Astoria, Diamond, Georgetown, Modern Disc, Modern Square, Old Town, Providence. That is how you match a dummy pair to keyed and passage openings elsewhere in the same house.

The plate measures 8-7/8 inches in the rectangular Sandcast Bronze pattern. On a narrow stile door, a French door rail or a glass-panel leaf, measure the flat face you have before you commit, because a 8-7/8 inch plate needs continuous flat stile to sit on.

Residential. The 7552 is a residential sandcast bronze dummy set, so for a corridor, a stairwell, or anywhere the opening falls under a commercial spec, go to a commercial-rated device instead. For interior unit doors, closets, and pantry leaves inside an apartment, it is on spec.

The 7552 is a single rectangular sideplate per face with a knob or lever on it, no deadbolt element. If you want a dummy set that mimics a deadbolt-over-lever arrangement, the Omnia D12036PD is a double dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates on 5-1/2 inch center to center. Different look and a different brand line, so pick on what the neighbouring doors already wear.

Possibly, and it depends on the plate footprint over the existing hole. The 7552 surface mounts and needs no prep of its own, so an existing 2-1/8 inch cross bore is not used by it. An 8-7/8 inch rectangular plate will typically conceal a standard bore, but hold the plate over the opening and check the plate covers the hole and the old strike mortise on the jamb is dealt with separately.

No. The Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset, so it carries a cylinder and a bolt that a closet or pantry side does not need and cannot be keyed for. The Emtek 7552 is the non-keyed dummy set for that job, sold as a pair for a double door or a door leaf that only needs a pull. If a dummy from Omnia is wanted instead, the D12036PD is the double dummy version of the same lever-on-plates design.

Three: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB), and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). These are sandcast bronze finishes, not plated brass tones, so they read darker and more textured than a polished builder finish and they are meant to live alongside the rest of the Sandcast Bronze line.
