Emtek Designer Brass Leverset - Santa Fe Lever, Dummy (Pair)

No door prep needed. The Santa Fe dummy pair is surface mount, so it screws to the face of the door with no cross bore and no latch bore. That is what makes it the usual choice for closet doors, French door inactive leaves, and any leaf where the hardware is there to pull on rather than latch.

Yes, the Santa Fe dummy pair covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, which spans older interior doors at 1-3/8 and standard doors at 1-3/4. Because it is surface mounted, thickness only matters for the through-fixing, not for a latch case.

The lever itself is handed. Santa Fe is offered in Left Hand and Right Hand, and the choice sets which way the lever sweeps so it matches the swing of the door and the levers on the openings around it. Ordered as a pair, you get both faces of one door. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, hinges on the right is right hand.

Yes. Santa Fe dummy levers can be ordered with any of the brass rosettes: #8, Lancaster, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Ribbon and Reed, Rope, Watford, and Wilshire. If the passage and privacy sets elsewhere in the house are on a Lancaster rose, order the dummy on Lancaster and the closet door reads the same as the rest.

No. Santa Fe is a residential brass leverset with no ANSI grade behind it, so it is the wrong choice where a commercial spec calls for a graded lock. For dummy trim on a commercial opening, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty version. The Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy is another Grade 1 option.

A dummy has no latch and no moving mechanism, so it will not hold a door shut. For a hall or closet door that needs to latch, look at a passage function set. Decorative residential options include the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever on the 5048 rose, and the Bravura Miramar or Atlanta passage leversets. If the door is a bed or bath, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever is the same trim with a thumbturn.

The BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim cylindrical lever lock, non-keyed, and it fills the same non-latching pull role. The Santa Fe dummy is a brass residential lever set, so on a corridor or tenant-facing door where a certified grade is on the drawing, the 9K 1DT carries the Grade 1 heavy duty rating. Note the BEST part is single dummy trim, meaning one side, while Santa Fe dummy is sold as a pair for both faces of the door.

The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose is the nearest residential decorative dummy, offered as BAL-5103-LDM for a left hand door and BAL-5103-RDM for a right hand door. The Santa Fe dummy is handed the same way, ordered Left Hand (LH) or Right Hand (RH). The difference in how they are bought is the trim: the Baldwin 5103 comes with the 5048 rose, while the Santa Fe pairs the lever with a choice of brass rosette including Lancaster, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Ribbon and Reed, Rope, Watford and Wilshire.

A dummy lever does not latch and does not turn; it is surface mounted with no door prep. If the door has to hold closed, the same Baldwin Estate 5103 lever is made in a passage version (BAL-5103-PASS) for hall and closet openings and a privacy version (BAL-5103-PRIV) for bed and bath. On the commercial side the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lever and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick.

The Emtek Santa Fe dummy covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a thicker leaf, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers are all rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. On commercial doors up to 2-1/4 inch, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever is fire rated and non-handed.

The Santa Fe dummy is a residential brass lever set. Where a fire rated opening is involved, the comparable set carries levers with a stated fire rating: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage lever with a fire rating, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever with a fire rating for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Both are latching passage functions rather than dummy trim.

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 has no clear coat, so it darkens and patinas with handling. Polished Brass Lifetime is coated to hold its shine. Pick deliberately if the dummy has to keep matching latching hardware elsewhere in the room.

One order is the complete set, both sides of the door. That is the difference from a half dummy, which is a single lever for one face only. If you only need one face, say on an inactive French door leaf where the back side is never touched, a half dummy such as the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy (handed left or right) is the cheaper way to cover it.

Two step down the duty ladder. The BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed dummy lever, and the Callan Bentley BN5051 is a Grade 2 dummy lever. Both are dummy function like the Santa Fe, so they mount as a non-operating pull with no latch. The Santa Fe differs in being a solid brass American Designer set built around interchangeable brass rosettes, where the Grade 2 commercial dummies come as a fixed trim design.

Both are dummy function levers, so neither latches. The Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever in the 5400 Series, a commercial trim for one face of the door. The Emtek Santa Fe dummy is a residential brass set supplied as a pair, covering both faces, with the lever chosen against a brass rosette. On a double door or a French pair where you need matching inactive trim on both sides, the pair configuration is what you are buying.

No. The Santa Fe dummy is non-keyed with no cylinder and no latch, and it surface mounts without door prep. Keyed levers such as the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever with 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/8 inch backset, or the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever, require a bored door with a latch and strike. If the door is already prepped for a cylindrical lock, the keyed lever is the one to order; if the door is a blank inactive leaf, the dummy is what fits.

For a residential double door where the inactive leaf takes dummy trim, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is a matching decorative option on the active leaf. The Bravura Miramar 940-106 passage leverset with round trim is a Grade 2 passage lever in US4 satin brass. The Santa Fe dummy comes in Polished Brass - Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B) and Polished Chrome (US26), so match the finish code across the pair before ordering.

No. The Santa Fe dummy is a non-electronic, non-keyed brass lever with no access control of any kind. For keyless access on the same style of opening, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is ADA compliant with a passage function for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock.

The Santa Fe dummy is a residential brass set with tubular lock type construction, so it suits in-unit closet and French door leaves. Unit entry and common area doors in the same building take a graded lockset: the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet lever in the 5300 Series, the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with Withnell trim. Specifying Santa Fe inside the unit and a graded lever at the corridor is the common split.

The Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for hall and closet doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Kwikset 200DL Delta passage lever is reversible with an adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike. Those latch and require a bored door. The Emtek Santa Fe dummy covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thickness but is dummy function, surface mounted with no door prep, and built in brass with a selectable brass rosette.

Brass throughout, both the lever and the rosette, which is why every rosette in the line pairs with it. Brass is the reason the unlacquered option can be left to patina rather than needing a plated finish.

Yes. A split finish can be specified at order, which is how you handle a door where the hall side matches one palette and the room side matches another. There is a comments field on the order for anything else the shop needs to know about the build.
