Emtek Modern Brass Tubular Single Point Lockset with Round Knob - Dummy (Pair)

No door prep is needed. The Emtek Modern Brass round knob dummy set is surface mounted, so it screws to the face of the door with no 2-1/8 inch cross bore and no latch bore. That makes it the usual choice for a closet door, a false door, or the inactive leaf of a pair where there is nothing to latch.

Yes. The dummy set covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, so it suits both older interior slabs and standard 1-3/4 inch doors.

Neither. It is a dummy function, meaning it is a fixed pull with no latch, no spindle action, and no key. Nothing holds the door shut, so if you need the door to stay closed you want a passage or privacy knobset instead, or a separate ball catch or roller catch.

It is sold as a pair, one dummy knob and sideplate for each face of the door. If you only need a pull on one side, a single dummy is the part to look for rather than this set.

The closest peer is the Omnia D12036PD, a solid brass double dummy lockset with plates on a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing. Both are non-keyed dummy sets sold for surface application on doors that need matching trim without a latch. The difference is the handle: the Emtek set uses a round brass knob with a sideplate, while the Omnia D12036PD is a lever with plates.

The Emtek Modern Brass round knob set is a dummy function and is not keyed, so it neither latches nor locks. For a locking opening, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, and the Omnia D12036AC is the double cylinder version, keyed on both sides. Choose single cylinder where a thumbturn on the inside is acceptable and double cylinder where a key is required from both faces.

Not for the knob itself. Handing is called out for leversets, since a lever has to point toward the strike side. A round knob is symmetrical, and with a dummy there is no latch to hand.

Both are sideplate shapes behind the same round knob. Modern Rectangular is the squared contemporary plate; Annapolis is the alternate plate profile. Pick whichever matches the sideplates already on your other doors, since the knob and the function are identical either way.

It is a residential product. For apartment corridors, offices, or any high traffic opening, look to a Grade 1 or Grade 2 commercial lockset instead; use this for interior residential doors, closets, and decorative openings.

The Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass double dummy lever lockset with plates, 5-1/2 inch center to center, if you want a lever pull on both faces rather than a round knob. Omnia also does the same sideplate design as working hardware: the D12036A single cylinder and the D12036AC double cylinder deadbolt lever locksets, for openings that actually have to lock.

Both are dummy sets, so either works where no latching is needed. The Emtek Modern Brass set gives you a round knob in a contemporary style, brass construction, and a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch with surface mounting and no door prep. The Omnia D12036PD is a lever dummy in solid brass with plates at 5-1/2 inch center to center, which suits openings where a lever grip is preferred or required for accessibility habits.

Yes. A split finish can be specified as a text note when ordering, so the two knobs in the pair can be finished differently, for instance Flat Black out and Polished Nickel in.

Solid brass, both substrate and material, which is why the unlacquered option can be left to patina and the plated finishes hold up on interior doors.

You can pair functions across a run of doors: the Emtek Modern Brass round knob set covers the dummy openings, and the Omnia D12036A single cylinder or D12036AC double cylinder deadbolt lever locksets cover the doors that need to secure. Note the trim will not match exactly, since the Emtek set is a brass round knob on a sideplate and the Omnia units are levers.
