Emtek 5059.LU.US10B – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek Luzern dummy lever pair require door prep or boring?
No boring needed. The Luzern dummy pair is surface mounted, so it screws onto the face of the door with no cross-bore and no latch prep. That's what makes it the usual choice for closet doors, French door pairs, and any inactive leaf where you want matching levers on both sides but no working latch.
2) Does a dummy lever actually latch the door shut?
It does not. A dummy lever is a pull only, with no latchbolt, no spindle turn, and no key. The Luzern dummy is non-keyed by design. If you need the door to stay closed you want a passage lever with a latch, or a privacy lever if it's a bed or bath. Order the dummy only where a ball catch, roller catch, or magnetic catch is holding the door.
3) Why does a dummy lever pair ask for handing when there's no latch?
Handing sets which way the lever points, and on a dummy it's purely cosmetic geometry, not mechanical. Right hand and left hand are the two choices, and you pick so the lever throws toward the strike side and matches the working levers on the rest of the opening. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it's right hand.
4) What do I have to specify when ordering the Emtek Luzern dummy pair?
Four things. Handing (right or left), finish, rosette style, and door thickness. Finishes run Flat Black US19, Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Polished Chrome US26, Polished Nickel Lifetime US14, Satin Brass US4, Satin Nickel US15, and Unlacquered Brass US3NL. Rosettes are Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern. There's also a split finish option if you want a different finish on each face of the door.
5) What is a Grade 1 dummy lever I can use instead of the Emtek Luzern dummy on a commercial door?
The BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 1 non-keyed heavy duty cylindrical lever with a dummy function, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever lock in the 5400 Series. The Emtek Luzern dummy pair is a residential brass leverset with a dummy function, sold as a pair for both faces of the opening, so the BEST and Accentra parts are single-side dummy trim rather than a matched pair.
6) The door needs to latch, not just have a handle. What should I order instead of an Emtek Luzern dummy?
A dummy has no latch at all; the Emtek Luzern dummy pair is surface mount with no door prep required. For a door that has to latch closed, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose is a passage function lever in the same decorative residential family. On the commercial side, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers and a fire rating, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever.
7) I only need a handle on one side of the door. Is the Emtek Luzern dummy the right part?
The Emtek Luzern dummy is sold as a complete pair, meaning trim for both faces. For a single face - the common case on a closet or a fixed inactive leaf - the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with the 5048 rose comes handed left or right, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim cylindrical lever.
8) The bathroom door needs a lock. What do I use in place of the Luzern dummy lever?
The Emtek Luzern is non-keyed with a dummy function, so it does not lock. For a privacy opening, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the matching decorative option, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
9) Can I put the Emtek Luzern dummy on a classroom or storeroom door that needs to be keyed?
No. The Emtek Luzern is non-keyed with a dummy function and is a residential leverset. For a keyed opening, the Dexter C1000 Series classroom lever is Grade 1 clutching and keyed for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
10) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. What lever works if the Emtek Luzern does not?
The Emtek Luzern dummy covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For thicker stock, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers each cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
11) Can I get the Luzern lever on a square rosette to match my other Emtek doors?
Yes. The Luzern lever pairs with any of six brass rosettes, Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern, so you can carry one rosette shape across passage, privacy, and dummy openings in a house or unit and keep the trim reading the same on every door.
12) I need matching levers on a closet that latches and one that doesn't. What do I order?
Order the Luzern dummy pair for the non-latching leaf and a matching Luzern lever in passage function for the one that latches, same finish and same rosette. Within the brass collection the lever and rosette carry across functions, so the two openings read identically. In another brand, the Baldwin Estate 5103 lever is offered in dummy, passage, and privacy on the same 5048 rose if you want that family instead.
13) Is a passage lever the same thing as a dummy lever?
No. A dummy lever is fixed trim with no latch, which is what the Emtek Luzern dummy pair provides in its dummy function with surface mount and no door prep. A passage lever operates a latch: the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando round trim leversets and the Bravura Tampa square trim leverset are all Grade 2 passage/hall/closet, and the Design Hardware J75 flat lever is a Grade 2 passage lockset for a 1-3/4 inch door. Those require a bored door prep that the dummy does not.
14) What is a lower-cost dummy lever alternative to the Emtek Luzern for a rental turn?
The Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever in the Bentley series, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim cylindrical lever. The Emtek Luzern dummy is a brass residential leverset offered in seven finishes including Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B) and Satin Nickel (US15), with a choice of six rosettes, so the Callan and BEST parts trade that finish and rosette range for a plainer commercial-style dummy.
15) The opening needs keyless entry. Is there a lever alternative to the Emtek Luzern dummy?
The Emtek Luzern is a non-electronic, non-keyed dummy. For keyless access, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock has a passage function and ADA compliance for 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, 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.
16) I need the dummy trim to match a keyed entry lever elsewhere in the house. What pairs with it?
The Emtek Luzern dummy pair is a contemporary-style brass leverset offered in Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel - Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15) and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). In the decorative residential range, the Baldwin Estate 5103 comes as passage, privacy and half dummy on the same 5048 rose, and the Deltana 5851 Claremont and 6201 Manchester are entry function levers, so a single trim design can carry across dummy, passage, privacy and entry openings.
17) Is a lever trim for an exit device the same as a dummy lever?
No. The Corbin Russwin 585F715 is a Grade 1 lock lever for the ED8000 pushpad exit device and the CL3300 cylindrical lock series, and the Imperial USA ED-EL500HD is a heavy duty escutcheon lever trim with an entry function for the ED-500 series. Those levers drive an exit device from the outside. The Emtek Luzern dummy is fixed trim with a dummy function, surface mounted with no door prep, and does not operate anything.
18) Will unlacquered brass on the Luzern lever change color over time?
Unlacquered Brass US3NL is a living finish, so it will darken and patina with handling rather than staying bright. If you want the brass look to hold, order Satin Brass US4 instead. Both are on the same lever and both take any of the rosette styles.
19) Is the Emtek Luzern lever solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass through and through. Both the material and the substrate on the Luzern leverset are brass, not a plated pot-metal casting, which is why it carries finishes like unlacquered brass that develop a patina on the base metal itself.
