Emtek 8050.R.RH.US15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a dummy lever actually do, and do I need a latch with it?
A dummy lever is a fixed pull. It does not turn, there is no latch and no keying, so nothing holds the door closed on its own. Pair it with a ball catch, roller catch, or magnetic catch. If you need the lever to retract a latch, you want a passage function instead, such as the Accentra 5301LN Augusta or the Falcon B101 passage lever.
2) Will the Emtek Rustic dummy leverset work on a 1-3/8 inch door?
Yes. The Rustic dummy pair is rated for door thicknesses from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, which covers both the common older interior door and the standard 1-3/4 inch slab.
3) Why do I have to pick a hand on a dummy lever that does not turn?
The lever is shaped, so it has a left or right orientation even though it never rotates. Left Hand and Right Hand are both offered. On a pair, the two levers are ordered so they mirror each other and both curve toward the swing side, matching the levers on the rest of the openings.
4) Is this Emtek dummy set sold singly or as a pair?
It ships as a complete pair, one lever and rosette for each face. If you only need one side, such as a single closet door leaf, a half dummy is the right part instead, like the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy.
5) What is a comparable decorative dummy lever pair if the Emtek Rustic dummy does not suit the door?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose is the closest decorative alternative, and it is ordered as a handed half dummy - BAL-5103-LDM for left hand and BAL-5103-RDM for right hand - so a pair of doors takes one of each. The Emtek Rustic dummy is a brass lever sold as a complete pair with handing chosen at order, and it surface mounts with no door prep on doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick.
6) I need a dummy lever for a commercial opening rather than a residential one - what should I use instead?
The Emtek Rustic dummy lever pair is a residential brass set. For a commercial door, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim lever is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed dummy, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty version of the same single dummy trim. The Accentra 455LN Augusta is another Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever lock. All three are single dummy trim, so a door needing both faces takes two.
7) The door actually needs to latch - what do I order instead of a dummy lever?
A dummy lever has no latch at all; the Emtek Rustic dummy is a non-keyed dummy function set. If the door has to latch closed, a passage lever is the direct replacement: the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever uses the same 5048 rose styling, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset. For a bed or bath door needing a thumbturn, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever covers that function.
8) My door is 2 inches thick - the Emtek Rustic dummy stops at 1-3/4 inch, so what fits?
The Emtek Rustic dummy lever pair covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a 2 inch door, the Deltana 6201 Manchester and 6431 Linstead entry levers are listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Dexter C1000 asylum function is listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Those are latching functions rather than dummy trim, so confirm the function you need for the opening.
9) How much clearance does the Rustic lever need off the door face?
Projection is 2-1/4 inches off the door, with 1-1/4 inches of clear space between the back of the lever and the door surface, so knuckles clear. Lever width is 4-1/4 inches, which matters where a door swings back against a wall or a return lever sits near a casing.
10) Can I pick the rosette shape on the Emtek Rustic dummy lever?
Yes, the Rustic lever can be ordered with any brass rosette. Ten are offered: #8, Lancaster, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Ribbon and Reed, Rope, Watford, and Wilshire. Pick the one that matches the rosettes already on your passage and privacy sets so the dummy blends in.
11) What finishes does the Emtek Rustic lever come in for matching existing hardware?
Seven: French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Polished Chrome (US26), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Unlacquered brass will patina over time, so it will not stay matched to a lacquered US3 set.
12) Is the Emtek Rustic leverset suitable for a commercial corridor or a school?
It is a residential brass trim set, non-keyed and surface mounted, built for homes and residential-style interiors. For institutional traffic and graded hardware, use a commercial dummy trim such as the BEST 9K Series 1DT Grade 1 heavy duty or the BEST 7KC Series 1DT Grade 2.
13) Is a Grade 2 dummy lever like the Callan Bentley the same thing as the Emtek Rustic dummy pair?
Both are dummy function levers, but they are ordered differently. The Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever. The Emtek Rustic dummy is a solid brass residential set sold as a complete pair, with handing selected left or right and the rosette chosen from ten profiles including Lancaster, Quincy, Rope and Wilshire, in finishes such as Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B and Unlacquered Brass US3NL.
14) Will a Kwikset passage lever work as a budget stand-in for the Emtek Rustic dummy pair?
Not as a like-for-like swap. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, which means it carries a working latch and one lever per door. The Emtek Rustic dummy is non-keyed dummy trim in brass, surface mounted with no door prep, and supplied as a pair for a door that does not latch, such as a closet or french door leaf.
15) What should I specify for a school or office corridor door instead of the Emtek Rustic dummy?
Dummy trim does not secure or latch anything, so it is not a corridor solution. For institutional openings, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever with a fire rating for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 fire rated passage lever covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Dexter C1000 classroom lever is a Grade 1 keyed clutching lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
16) Can I order the Emtek Rustic dummy with two different finishes, one per side?
Yes. A split finish can be specified when ordering, so the hall side and room side can be different finishes, useful when a room's hardware scheme differs from the corridor.
17) What is the Emtek Rustic lever made of?
Solid brass, both the lever and the rosette, which is why it can be ordered in unlacquered brass and living finishes that age in place.
