Emtek 8042 STRETTO Narrow Trim Lockset, 2" x 10" Modern Rectangular Keyed, Brass Tubular, Dummy (Pair)

It's a dummy set, so there is no latch and no turning mechanism. The knob or lever is fixed and works as a pull only. Use it on closet doors, double doors where one leaf stays fixed, or any opening held shut by a ball catch or roller catch. If you need the door to latch, you want a passage set instead; if you need privacy, a privacy set with a thumbturn.

No door prep is needed. The 8042 is surface mounted, so it fastens to the face of the door rather than through a 2-1/8 inch cross bore. That makes it workable on doors you don't want to drill through, including glass-panel and thin-stile doors where a standard bore would be a problem.

Handing is a required selection, right hand or left hand. It matters for levers, which have to point the correct way when mounted. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it's right hand. Knobs are symmetrical, but the order still asks for a hand, so state the door's hand either way.

The 8042 ships as a pair, so you get trim for both faces of the door. That suits a single door you want to look finished on both sides, or one leaf of a double door. If you only need one face, a single dummy is the part to look for, not this one.

Yes, and it's a required choice. The 8042 accepts any Emtek brass knob or lever, running from modern shapes like the Ace Knob, Spoke Knob, Stuttgart and Helios levers and the L-Square, T-Bar and R-Bar families (faceted, hammered, knurled, Tribeca, straight knurled, white marble) through traditional Cortina, Milano, Turino, Rope and Ribbon and Reed, plus crystal knobs such as Bristol, Windsor and Georgetown. Pick one trim style so both halves of the pair match.

It's a residential product. The 8042 is solid brass narrow trim with a contemporary rectangular look, aimed at homes and light-duty residential openings. For high-traffic commercial doors in an office, school or hospital corridor, look at a Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical lockset instead.

Neither. The 8042 is non-keyed with no cylinder and no privacy turn. It's a fixed pull. If the opening needs to lock, choose a keyed entry or privacy version of the STRETTO narrow trim instead.

Seven: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) and Satin Brass (US4). Unlacquered brass is the one that will patina over time rather than hold its as-shipped look, which matters if you're trying to match existing hardware in a unit.
