Emtek 8010 Colonial 7-1/8" Non-Keyed Sideplate Lockset, Passage - Brass Tubular

It does not lock. Passage function means the knob or lever turns the latch from both sides at all times, with no key and no privacy button. Use it on hallways, closets, pantries, and any door that just needs to latch shut. For a bathroom or bedroom you want a privacy version, and for an exterior or secured door you need a keyed set. The 8010 is a non-keyed lockset, so there is no cylinder to key into a system.

Handing is required if you choose a lever. Levers are ordered right hand or left hand, so you need to know which way the door swings and which side the hinges are on before the order goes in. Knobs are symmetrical and handing is not a factor for them. Stand outside the door, on the side it swings away from: hinges on your right is right hand.

It ships as a complete set: the knob or lever you select, the sideplates, the latch, and the strike plate. The trim style is not a separate purchase, it is chosen when you order, from the full Emtek brass knob and lever range, Stuttgart and Helios levers through Egg, Melon, and Providence knobs and the crystal knobs. Nothing else is required to hang the set on a door that is already bored.

It is a residential lockset. Emtek lists the 8010 Colonial for residential use, and it is a tubular bored lock in brass. For apartment interiors, model units, offices in a converted house, or common-area closets it is the right kind of part. For a high-traffic commercial opening, a corridor door in a school or hospital, or anything on a life-safety plan, specify a commercial-grade cylindrical or mortise lock instead.

No. The Omnia D12036PD is a double dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates, which means the trim is fixed and there is no latch operating into the frame. The Emtek 8010 Colonial is a passage function tubular lockset sold as a complete set with knob or lever, latch and strike plate, so it actually latches the door closed. Use a dummy set only on a door held shut by a ball catch, roller catch or magnet, such as a non-functioning closet or a French door inactive leaf.

Match on two things: finish and trim style. The 8010 Colonial comes in eight finishes, Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and French Antique (US7). Because the knob or lever is selected separately from the same Emtek brass trim range, you can carry a single lever design and a single finish across passage, privacy, and keyed openings and keep the whole floor consistent. Note that Unlacquered Brass is a living finish and will darken over time, so it will not stay matched to a lacquered Polished Brass set.

A sideplate lockset puts the knob or lever on a long vertical backplate instead of a small round or square rose. On the Emtek 8010 Colonial that plate is 7-1/8 inches, which covers more of the door face and gives the opening a traditional American look. Mechanically it is the same tubular bored lock behind the plate, same 2-1/8 inch bore. Two practical consequences: the longer plate hides old screw holes and wear from previous hardware, and it needs a flat, unobstructed run of door face over that 7-1/8 inches, which rules out doors where a narrow stile or a panel molding sits right above or below the bore.

The 8010 Colonial is passage only, no cylinder. For a locking sideplate set, Omnia's D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, and the D12036AC is the double cylinder version, keyed from both sides, which is what you use on a door with glass beside it where someone could reach the inside thumbturn. Omnia also makes the D12036PD, a double dummy sideplate lever set with a 5-1/2 inch center to center, for the inactive leaf of a pair or a false door where nothing has to latch at all.

No. The 8010 is a passage set with a working latch and strike, so it will latch every time the door closes. For a door that should swing free, or the inactive leaf of a pair, you want a dummy set with no latch at all, such as the Omnia D12036PD double dummy sideplate lever set at 5-1/2 inch center to center. Fitting a passage set where a dummy belongs means cutting a latch mortise and a strike you did not need.

Yes, 1-3/8 inches is inside the range. The 8010 Colonial covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, which spans older residential interior doors at 1-3/8 and standard modern doors at 1-3/4. There is a door thickness field on the order so you can state the actual measurement. Anything thicker than 1-3/4 inches is outside what this set handles.

The Emtek 8010 Colonial covers the non-locking side of the job: a 7-1/8 inch brass sideplate in a passage function, which is what a hall, closet or pantry door takes. For the entry beside it, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass with the same sideplate approach, and the Omnia D12036PD gives a double dummy in the same D12036 family for any inactive leaf. Confirm finish before ordering, since the 8010 is offered in finishes such as Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Satin Nickel US15 and Polished Brass US3 and the finish naming differs between manufacturers.

Brass is the substrate, not a coating over zinc or steel. That matters for two reasons on a renovation: brass takes the applied finishes cleanly and wears through to more brass rather than to a grey base metal, and in the Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) version the raw metal is exposed on purpose so it patinas. It also sets what trim you can pair with it, since the set takes any of the Emtek brass knob or lever designs.

The Emtek 8010 Colonial 7-1/8 inch sideplate lockset is designated residential, brass tubular construction, and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset on a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore. That prep is the common residential door prep, which is why it suits apartment interiors, single-family and hospitality guest rooms. The Omnia D12036 family, including the D12036A single cylinder and D12036PD double dummy, is solid brass in the same sideplate style if you want the deadbolt-style lever look on the same opening group.
