Emtek EMTEK-T-BAR-STEM-DARK-WALNUT-HANDLE-DUMMY – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a dummy lever actually do, and when should I use one instead of a passage lever?
The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut lever in dummy function does not turn or retract anything. The stem and handle are permanently affixed, so it is a fixed pull for a closet door, a French door slab, or the inactive leaf of a pair. If you need the handle to rotate and retract a latch, you want a passage set instead, such as the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage lever or the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage lever.
2) Does installing this Emtek dummy lever require boring the door?
No door prep is needed. It is surface mount, so it fastens to the face of the slab rather than into a 2-1/8 inch cross bore. That makes it the straightforward choice on a closet or French door that was never bored.
3) I need a lever that works on a 2 inch thick door - does the Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut set cover that?
No. The Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut handle is rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For thicker stock, the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Dexter C1000 asylum function covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
4) What is a comparable dummy lever if the Emtek Select Brass T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle dummy set is too decorative for a commercial corridor?
The Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut dummy is a residential brass leverset with a living-finish walnut handle. 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 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever in the 5400 Series. Both are dummy function like the Emtek, so they mount as pull-only trim on a door that does not latch.
5) The Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut dummy does not latch - what should I order for a door that needs to stay closed?
A dummy set is pull trim only. For a hall or closet door that needs a latch, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose keeps a similar decorative look, while the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever in the 5300 Series. For a bed or bath door, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever covers privacy function.
6) Will a passage leverset work as a substitute for the Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut dummy?
No, they are different functions. Passage sets such as the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra lever, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 Withnell passage lever, or the Falcon B101 Grade 2 non-handed passage lever all contain a working latch and a door bore. The Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut handle is a dummy - surface mount with no door prep required - so it cannot operate a latch and a passage set cannot be installed without boring the door.
7) What should I use instead of the Emtek Select Dark Walnut dummy on a fire-rated opening?
A dummy set does not latch and is not the right trim for a fire door. The Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock carries a fire rating, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever in the CL3100 Series is also fire rated for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut handle is a residential dummy for interior use only.
8) How far does the Emtek T-Bar stem lever stick out from the door?
Projection is 2.5 inches. Worth checking against anything close to the door swing, a wall stop, or a passing door leaf on a pair.
9) Which rosettes and finishes can I get with the dark walnut T-Bar lever?
Seven rosette shapes: Disk, Modern Rectangular, Quincy, Square, Urban Modern, Watford, and Wilshire. The rosette and stem finish choices are Flat Black (US19), French Antique (US7), Matte White, Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), Satin Rose Gold, and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Pewter, Matte White, and Satin Rose Gold are limited release and pair only with Disk, Square, Urban Modern, and Quincy rosettes.
10) Do I need to specify left or right hand for this Emtek dummy lever?
Handing is not part of the order here. The Emtek SELECT T-Bar dark walnut dummy is configured by rosette, stem finish, and handle, with no hand option on the axes. Some other brands do split it, for example Baldwin Estate 5103 is sold as a separate left hand half dummy and right hand half dummy.
11) Will the walnut finish on this Emtek lever stay the same color?
No. The SELECT walnut lever is a living finish that ages and changes over time, and it is for interior use only. If you need a stable, matched appearance across a group of doors, pick one of the metal handle options instead of the walnut.
12) Can I match this lever to the other Emtek hardware in the house?
Yes, within the SELECT Series. It can be ordered with any brass rosette, and the same eleven rosette and stem finishes let you carry one finish across dummy, and other SELECT trim on the rest of the doors. Keep the limited release finishes (Pewter, Matte White, Satin Rose Gold) to the Disk, Square, Urban Modern, and Quincy rosettes.
13) Do any of the Emtek Select dummy alternatives need handing specified?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is ordered by hand - a left hand version and a right hand version are separate items. The Emtek Select T-Bar Stem Dark Walnut dummy is ordered by finish and rosette instead, with finishes including Flat Black US19, Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Polished Nickel Lifetime US14, Satin Brass US4, Satin Nickel US15 and Unlacquered Brass US3NL.
14) What comes in the box with the Emtek SELECT dummy lever set?
It ships as a complete set: the lever with T-Bar stem, a latch, a strike plate, and a dust box, with a 28 degree rotation latch supplied. The lever itself is brass.
