Emtek 8820-US15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a dummy pair lockset and how is it used?
A dummy pair lockset provides handles on both sides of a door without any locking mechanism. It's used on doors that don't need to latch or lock, such as pantry doors, closet doors, or French doors with surface bolts.
2) What door thickness works with this Emtek Wilshire lockset?
Most Emtek locksets accommodate standard door thickness of 1-3/8" to 1-3/4". Check the manufacturer's template for exact specifications and verify your door thickness before installation.
3) Does this lockset come with installation hardware?
Yes, the lockset includes mounting screws and installation hardware. A tubular dummy lockset requires only a single hole through the door, no mortising required.
4) What is the center-to-center measurement on the sideplate?
This unit has a 5-1/2" center-to-center measurement on the sideplate. This refers to the distance between the mounting screw holes on the decorative backplate.
5) Can I use this on exterior doors?
While the brass finish can handle weather exposure, dummy locksets provide no security. Use only on exterior doors that have separate locking mechanisms like surface bolts or rim locks.
6) What finish options are available for Emtek Wilshire series?
Emtek offers multiple finishes in the Wilshire series including polished brass, oil rubbed bronze, and satin nickel. Check our Emtek collection for available finish options.
7) How do I determine left or right hand for installation?
Dummy locksets are typically non-handed and can be installed on either side. The sideplate design allows flexibility in mounting orientation based on your door swing direction.
8) What hole size do I need to drill for installation?
Standard tubular locksets require a 2-1/8" diameter hole through the door. Use a hole saw for clean cutting and follow the manufacturer's template for precise placement.
9) Can this replace an existing keyed lockset?
Yes, if the existing lockset has the same hole pattern and backset measurement. You may need to fill or patch the latch hole since dummy locksets don't use a latch mechanism.
10) How do I maintain the brass finish?
Clean brass hardware with mild soap and water, then dry completely. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Apply brass cleaner periodically to maintain shine and prevent tarnishing.
11) Are there matching accessories available?
Emtek offers coordinating hinges, deadbolts, and cabinet hardware in the Wilshire style. Browse our door hardware section for matching pieces.
