Emtek Sandcast Bronze Leversets - Bryce Lever, Dummy (Pair)

The Bryce lever is a shaped, directional lever, so it is made as a dedicated Left Hand or Right Hand piece and cannot be flipped in the field. Stand on the outside of the door (the side you are mounting the lever on) and note which side the hinges are on: hinges left means left hand, hinges right means right hand. Both LH and RH are offered in every finish and rosette combination. Since this is sold as a pair, order the handing that puts the lever handle pointing away from the hinge edge on each face.

Pair means two dummy levers, one for each face of a single door, sold as a complete set. That's the usual setup on a French door leaf or a double closet door where you want a handle to grab from both sides. If you only want a lever on one face, you want a single or half dummy instead, such as the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy, which is offered in dedicated left hand and right hand versions.

It is built and catalogued as residential hardware, and as a dummy it carries no ANSI/BHMA grade, no latch and no fire rating, so it is not the part for a rated or code-governed commercial opening. For a commercial dummy trim, look at the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy, which is Grade 1 heavy duty, or the BEST 7KC Series 1DT at Grade 2 medium duty. The Accentra 455LN Augusta is another Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever.

The Bryce sandcast bronze dummy is non-keyed dummy function and surface mounts with no door prep, so it has no latch at all. For a door that needs to latch and stay closed, use a passage lever such as the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose, the Bravura Atlanta round trim passage leverset (Grade 2), or the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever, a Grade 3 passage set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the Bryce covers.

The Emtek Bryce sandcast bronze dummy lever is designated for residential use. For a commercial opening, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim cylindrical lever is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed dummy, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever in the 5400 Series. For a medium duty commercial dummy, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT single dummy trim lever is Grade 2.

The Emtek Bryce sandcast bronze dummy is sold as a pair, so both faces of the door get a lever. If only one face needs a lever, the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose is a dummy-function decorative lever offered as a left hand version (5103 LDM) and a right hand version (5103 RDM), so you pick the hand to match the door. The Bryce pair is also handed, offered in Left Hand and Right Hand, so the hand call-out carries over either way.

Five sandcast bronze rosettes are offered: #1, #2, #3, #4 and #6. Every one of them is available in all three finishes and in both handings, so you can match the rose profile already used on the other Emtek sandcast openings in the house without giving up your finish or hand. This matters most when you are adding a dummy to an existing run of Emtek doors, pick the same rosette number that's on the passage and privacy sets already installed.

The stated range is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, which covers standard interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch commercial-thickness slabs. Thinner bifold or panel slabs below 1-3/8 fall outside it, and so does a 2 inch door. For thicker openings in a lever, the Deltana Manchester, Morant and Linstead entry levers are listed to 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and Hager's 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches.

Use the Bryce dummy pair on the inactive leaf so both faces get a handle that matches, and put a working function on the active leaf. Because the dummy is surface mounted with no door prep, it can go on after the doors are hung without touching the stile. Keep the same rosette number and finish across both leaves so the active passage or privacy set and the dummy read as one set.

The dummy gives you the look and a grab handle with nothing mechanical behind it, so the door has to be held by a catch. A passage set has a live latch and latches into a strike. If the closet door needs to stay shut on its own, order a passage function instead, for example the Bravura Atlanta or Orlando round trim passage leverset, the Callan Asheville, or the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever. If the door already has a ball catch or magnetic catch, the dummy is the cleaner install because nothing gets bored.

No. The Bryce sandcast bronze lever is a non-keyed dummy for residential use and has no latch or cylinder. A classroom door takes something like the Dexter C1000 Series Grade 1 classroom cylindrical lever or the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever in the AG Series. For a storeroom, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 with Withnell lever is a Grade 2 storeroom lock.

They are not interchangeable. The Bryce sandcast bronze dummy is a fixed lever pair that surface mounts with no door prep and no latch mechanism. A passage set such as the Bravura Orlando or Bravura Tampa passage leverset, both Grade 2, has a working latch and requires bored door prep. On a closet door with a ball catch or roller catch, the dummy pair works; on a closet door that needs a latch, the passage set is the correct call.

The Bryce sandcast bronze dummy pair can be ordered with any sandcast bronze rosette, with #1 through #4 and #6 rosettes offered across Flat Black Bronze, Medium Bronze and Tumbled White Bronze. If the rosette styling is not a factor, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever is a straightforward dummy lever, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim lever.

The Bryce sandcast bronze dummy lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a 2 inch door, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers are each listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Those are latching functions rather than dummy, so confirm the function the opening needs.

Yes, there's a split finish option at order time. Enter the combination you want in the split finish field, for instance a Flat Black Bronze lever on a Medium Bronze rosette. If you leave it blank, the lever and rosette both come in the single finish you selected.
