Emtek 5057.HEC.RH.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Hercules dummy pair include, and is it one lever or two?
It is a pair, meaning a lever and rosette on each face of the door. Order one set per door where you want a matching pull inside and out. If you only need a lever on one side, a half dummy is the right item instead; Baldwin's Estate 5103 half dummy is sold that way, handed left or right.
2) Why do I have to pick left or right hand on a dummy lever that does not latch?
Handing on the Hercules dummy is about which way the lever points, not about a latch. Both Left Hand (LH) and Right Hand (RH) are offered, so pick the one whose lever sweeps toward the hinge side the way your other doors do. On a pair of doors you often want one of each so the levers mirror.
3) I need the door to actually latch shut, not just have a handle. Is this the wrong lock?
Yes, wrong function. A dummy lever is a fixed pull, it does not retract a latch and does not hold a door closed. For a latching non-locking door use a passage set, for example the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever if you want a similar decorative look, or the Bravura Miramar passage leverset in US4 satin brass. For bed and bath use a privacy set such as the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy.
4) The Hercules dummy is sold as a pair - what if I only need a dummy lever on one side of the door?
The Emtek Hercules dummy leverset is a pair, ordered left hand or right hand. For a single-side application, the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose is offered in left hand and right hand versions, and the BEST 9K Series 1DT and 7KC Series 1DT are single dummy trims. The Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever as well.
5) What is a commercial-grade alternative to the Emtek Hercules dummy leverset for a heavy-traffic opening?
The Emtek Hercules dummy lever is a residential brass lever with a dummy function. For a heavy-traffic commercial opening needing the same non-latching dummy trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim cylindrical lever is Grade 1 heavy duty and non-keyed, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever in the 5400 Series. The BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty for a lighter commercial application.
6) I need a lever that actually latches, not a dummy - what should I order instead of the Hercules dummy pair?
The Hercules lever in dummy function is non-keyed trim with no operating latch mechanism. If the door needs a working latch, a passage lever is the functional replacement: the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose, the Bravura Atlanta round trim passage leverset at Grade 2, or the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset. For a bath or bedroom door that needs to lock, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever or Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set covers that function.
7) Will the Emtek Hercules dummy leverset satisfy a Grade 1 or fire-rated spec on a commercial drawing?
The Hercules dummy leverset is a residential brass lever, tubular lock type. When the drawing calls out Grade 1 cylindrical hardware, peers written to that level include the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock, which is heavy duty and fire rated with a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever, fire rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
8) Can I get the Hercules lever to match the rosettes on the rest of my Emtek doors?
Yes. The Hercules lever can be ordered on six brass rosettes: Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern. That is how you keep a dummy on a closet door reading the same as the passage and privacy sets elsewhere in the house.
9) What finishes does the Emtek Hercules dummy lever come in?
Seven: Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Unlacquered brass is a living finish and will darken with handling, so use it only where you want the patina on every door in the run.
10) What is a decorative residential alternative to the Emtek Hercules dummy lever in a traditional rather than contemporary style?
The Hercules lever is a contemporary brass design, offered with Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square and Urban Modern rosettes. For a more traditional decorative look in a comparable residential lever, the Baldwin Estate 5103 with 5048 rose is available in dummy, passage and privacy functions, and Deltana offers the Claremont, Manchester, Morant and Linstead levers in entry function.
11) Which lever should I use if the door needs keyed entry instead of the Hercules dummy trim?
The Hercules dummy leverset is non-keyed with no cylinder. For keyed entry on the same style of bored opening, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 entry/office cylindrical lever. For a storeroom opening, the Hager 2580 and Cal-Royal AG05 are Grade 2 storeroom levers.
12) Do any alternatives to the Emtek Hercules dummy lever fit doors thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Hercules dummy leverset fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. Where the door is thicker, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Dexter C1000 asylum function covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Note these are latching functions rather than dummy trim.
13) Is the Emtek Hercules dummy leverset a keyless entry option?
No. The Hercules dummy leverset is a non-electronic, non-keyed brass lever. If keyless code entry is the goal, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock fits doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch and is ADA compliant, the Lockey 1150 mechanical keypad heavy duty lever set fits 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch with adjustable backset, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock.
14) Is the Hercules leverset solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass, both as the material and the substrate, from Emtek's Brass collection. The style is contemporary rather than traditional, with a straight modern lever.
15) Can I order the Hercules dummy pair with two different finishes, one per side?
Yes. There is an optional split finish field on the order, so you can specify a different finish for the interior and exterior lever on the same door. Any special instruction that goes with it can be put in the comments field.
16) I want a satin brass passage lever to pair visually with Emtek Hercules dummy levers elsewhere in the house - what is comparable?
The Hercules dummy lever is offered in Satin Brass (US4) among its finishes, along with Flat Black, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Polished Chrome, Polished Nickel Lifetime, Satin Nickel and Unlacquered Brass. For a latching lever in the same US4 tone, the Bravura Miramar with round trim is a Grade 2 passage leverset in US4 satin brass. Cal-Royal's AUS00 entrance/office lever is Grade 3 with a solid brass forged body for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
