Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar White Marble Lever - Dummy Set

No boring needed. The White Marble R-Bar dummy set is surface mount, so it screws to the face of the door with no 2-1/8 inch cross bore and no latch prep. That makes it the usual choice for a closet door, a pantry door, or the inactive leaf of a French pair where you only need something to pull on. It fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick.

Just a pull. The dummy function has no latch, no spring return and no lock, so the lever is fixed and the door needs a separate catch, roller catch or flush bolt to stay closed. If you need the lever to retract a latch without locking, order a passage set instead.

Yes, handing is a required choice: the set is offered Left Hand (LH) and Right Hand (RH). Because a dummy lever is fixed and cannot be flipped in the field, stand outside the door and note which side the hinges are on before ordering. On a pair of French doors where you want both levers pointing the same way, you will need one of each hand.

The hardware is brass, with a genuine white marble handle. It is a residential SELECT Series product, so for a school corridor, a hospital or an apartment common area you want a commercial Grade 1 or Grade 2 dummy trim instead, such as the BEST 9K Series 1DT Grade 1 single dummy trim or the BEST 7KC Series 1DT Grade 2 version.

A dummy set does not latch, so if the door needs to close and hold, move to a passage or privacy function. In the same Baldwin Estate 5103 lever with 5048 rose there is a passage version (BAL-5103-PASS) and a privacy version (BAL-5103-PRIV), which keeps the decorative look. For a bedroom or bath, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever for doors 1-3/8 in to 1-3/4 in thick. The Emtek SELECT R-Bar White Marble set is dummy function only and is non-keyed.

The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose is a close residential counterpart, also a dummy function lever and offered handed as a left hand version (BAL-5103-LDM) and a right hand version (BAL-5103-RDM). The Emtek SELECT R-Bar White Marble dummy set is likewise ordered Left Hand or Right Hand, is brass, and surface mounts with no door prep required. The main difference is trim: the Baldwin pairs with the 5048 rose, while the Emtek lever can be ordered with any brass rosette, including Disk, Square, Quincy, Watford, Wilshire, Modern Rectangular and Urban Modern.

Use the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim cylindrical lever, a Grade 1 non-keyed heavy duty dummy trim, or the Accentra 455LN Augusta heavy duty Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever from the 5400 Series. The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar White Marble dummy set is a residential brass set with no graded rating attached, so for a specified commercial job the BEST or Accentra dummy trim is the one that answers the drawing.

Passage levers are the common mix-up. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta (Grade 2, 5300 Series), the Arrow GL01 Sierra lever (Grade 2, non-keyed), the Falcon B101 (Grade 2 non-handed), and the Bravura Atlanta BV333002 (Grade 2) are all non-keyed like the Emtek SELECT R-Bar White Marble set, but they are passage/hall/closet function with a working latch and require door boring. The Emtek dummy set surface mounts with no door prep required and does not operate a latch.

No. The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar White Marble dummy set covers door thicknesses of 1-3/8 in to 1-3/4 in. For thicker doors, look at levers rated past that range: the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 in to 2 in, the Deltana 6201 Manchester entry lever covers 1-3/8 in to 2 in, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 in to 2-1/4 in.

Seven rosette styles: Disk, Modern Rectangular, Quincy, Square, Urban Modern, Watford and Wilshire. Finishes are Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15) and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). The lever itself is the White Marble (MRWH) handle on the R-Bar (RA) stem, and it can be ordered with any brass rosette, which is how you match it to passage and privacy sets already on the other doors.

Baldwin's Estate 5103 half dummy lever with the 5048 rose is the closest decorative alternative, and like the Emtek it is ordered by hand, left (5103 LDM) or right (5103 RDM). Baldwin also builds the 5103 in passage and privacy versions, so you can carry one lever design across a whole floor. The Emtek difference is the marble handle and the choice of seven rosettes.

Yes. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, and the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 passage lock with non-handed levers. The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar White Marble dummy set is ordered as Left Hand or Right Hand, so the handing has to be called out at the time of order.

The Emtek SELECT R-Bar White Marble dummy set is non-keyed, so for a keyed opening choose a keyed lever instead. The Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 in backset for doors 1-3/8 in to 1-3/4 in. For a storeroom function, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt over the same 1-3/8 in to 1-3/4 in thickness range.

It ships as a complete set: the White Marble lever on the R-Bar stem with the rosette you select, plus mounting hardware for surface installation. No latch or strike is in the box because the dummy function has none. Order one set per leaf you want a lever on.

Contemporary. The R-Bar is a straight bar lever, and the white marble handle with a brass rosette reads modern, particularly on the Modern Rectangular, Square or Urban Modern rosettes. Quincy, Watford and Wilshire soften it if the rest of the trim is more transitional.
