Emtek 7757-FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek 7757 dummy sideplate set actually lock, or is it just a pull?
No latching, no locking. The 7757 is a dummy function set, non-keyed, so the knob or lever is fixed and there is nothing to turn or throw. It's trim for a door that doesn't need to latch, closet and pantry doors, one leaf of a set of French doors, or the inactive leaf of a pair. If you need the door to stay shut you want a passage or privacy set instead.
2) Do I have to bore my door for the Emtek 7757 sandcast bronze sideplate?
Surface mount, no door prep required. The 7757 plate screws to the face of the door, which is why it's a common retrofit onto a door that already has holes or damage from earlier hardware, the 9-1/4 inch plate covers a lot of ground. Compare that to the keyed and passage sets in the same Sandcast Bronze line, which take a standard 2-1/8 inch bore.
3) Will the Emtek 7757 fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
Yes, the 7757 covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, which spans both the thinner interior slabs common in older houses and standard 1-3/4 inch stock. There's a door thickness field on the order so you can call out what you actually have.
4) Do I need to specify handing on an Emtek sandcast bronze dummy sideplate?
Handing is required on the 7757, right hand or left hand. Emtek calls for handing on leverset trim because a lever has to point toward the latch edge, and on a sideplate set the plate orientation follows. Stand outside the door, on the side it opens away from you: hinges on your right is right hand.
5) The door needs to lock with a key, so what sideplate lockset should I use instead of the Emtek 7757?
The Emtek 7757 is non-keyed and dummy function, which means it is a surface mounted pull with no latch action, so it cannot secure an opening. For a keyed sideplate opening, 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 design. Choose single cylinder where a thumbturn on the inside is acceptable and double cylinder where the opening calls for a key on both sides.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek 7757 sideplate dummy set from another maker?
The Omnia D12036PD is the nearest match: it is a solid brass dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates on a 5-1/2 inch center to center spacing, and its function is double dummy, the same non-operating pull function the Emtek 7757 carries as a dummy pair. The Emtek 7757 is a 9-1/4 inch sandcast bronze sideplate set, so the visible plate length and the bronze material are the main points to check against the Omnia before you swap one for the other.
7) Why is the Emtek 7757 sold as a pair, and can I buy just one side?
The 7757 ships as a double dummy, one 9-1/4 inch sideplate with trim for each face of the door. That's the configuration for a door you push and pull from both sides, French doors and closet pairs being the usual case. If you only need one face dressed, this isn't the part to order.
8) Can I pick which knob or lever goes on the Emtek 7757 sideplate?
You choose the trim style when you order, and the choice is wide: ten levers (Aurora, Bryce, Cimarron, Cody, Durango, Lariat, Mariposa, Montrose, Teton, Yuma) and fifteen knobs including Butte, Egg, Round, Winchester, Bristol, Hampton, Lowell, Windsor, Astoria, Diamond, Georgetown, Modern Disc, Modern Square, Old Town and Providence. Any Sandcast Bronze knob or lever style works on the plate, so you can carry one trim design across doors that use different functions.
9) Is the Emtek 7757 rated for commercial use in an apartment building or office?
The 7757 is a residential product. It's sandcast bronze decorative trim built for houses and high-end residential work, not for the traffic or code requirements of a commercial opening. Property managers doing common-area or leased commercial doors should be looking at a commercial-grade bored lockset instead.
10) What's the difference between the Emtek 7757 dummy sideplate and the Omnia D12036PD dummy?
Both are dummy sideplate lever sets, but the Omnia D12036PD is solid brass with a stated 5-1/2 inch center-to-center between the plate and the deadbolt element, while the Emtek 7757 is sandcast bronze with a 9-1/4 inch plate and a choice of twenty-five knob and lever styles. Omnia also does the same D12036 plate as a working lock: the D12036A is single cylinder and the D12036AC double cylinder, so if you started at a dummy and later need one of the doors to actually key, that family gives you a matching look.
11) I need a keyed entry with the same sideplate look as the Emtek 7757, what do I order?
Not this one, the 7757 is non-keyed. For a keyed sideplate in a similar format, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder lever lockset with a sideplate and the D12036AC is the double cylinder version. Within Emtek's own Sandcast Bronze line you'd move to a keyed sideplate model rather than the 7757, and you can keep the same knob or lever style across the openings either way.
12) Is the Omnia D12036AC a substitute for the Emtek 7757 dummy pair?
No. The Omnia D12036AC is a double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset with a sideplate design, so it takes a key on both sides and requires cylinders and a keying decision. The Emtek 7757 is a non-keyed dummy pair with no cylinder at all. The two share the sideplate look but not the function, and a double cylinder unit on an opening that only needed a pull adds a bored deadbolt prep and a key the tenant has to carry.
13) We are standardizing sideplate hardware across a building with a mix of closet doors and entry doors. How do the Emtek 7757 and the Omnia D12036 sideplate sets divide the work?
Run the Emtek 7757 on the openings that only need a pull: it is a non-keyed dummy pair in sandcast bronze at 9-1/4 inches, surface mounted with no door prep, and it takes any of the sandcast bronze knob or lever styles so the trim reads the same across the run. For the openings that need to lock, the Omnia line covers the same sideplate format in solid brass with three functions to pick from: D12036PD as a double dummy, D12036A as single cylinder, and D12036AC as double cylinder. The material differs between the two families, bronze on the Emtek and brass on the Omnia, so decide which one carries the visible finish before you split the order.
14) Is the Emtek 7757 solid bronze or bronze-finished?
Solid bronze, sandcast, both the material and the substrate. Sandcasting is why each plate carries slight surface variation rather than the uniform face of a stamped or plated part, and it's the reason the line reads the way it does on rustic and heavy timber doors.
