Emtek 1232-MB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek 1232 multi point trim include the multi point mortise lock box?
No. The 1232 is trim only: plates and handles. The multi point mortise lock body stays out of the box, so you need the existing lock in the door to be serviceable or order a lock body separately. Buyers replacing worn or broken handles on a swinging patio door are the right fit here; anyone whose gearbox has failed needs more than this set.
2) Which patio door brands does the Emtek 1232 Door Config #2 trim match?
Door Configuration #2 is referenced to BiltBest, G-U, Hurd (Energy Saver), and Andersen multi point doors. The geometry that has to agree is the 3-5/8 inch handle-to-cylinder center-to-center and the cylinder sitting above the handle. Measure the existing plate on your door from the spindle center to the cylinder center before you commit, because Emtek's configurations differ mainly in that dimension.
3) Will Emtek 1232 trim fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or only a 1-3/4 inch one?
Both. The 1232 covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch door thickness, which spans the usual 1-3/4 inch patio door and thinner older panels. Door thickness is a field you fill in when ordering, so give the actual measured thickness rather than assuming standard.
4) Is the Emtek 1232 passage trim keyed, and can it be locked?
Non-keyed passage. The 1232 operates the multi point latching through the levers but carries no cylinder and no lock function, so it is the set for an inactive or interior-side leaf, or a door where security comes from elsewhere. If the opening needs to lock with a key, a keyed Tuscany multi point trim in the same Door Config #2 is the set to order instead. Cylinder classification on the keyed versions is American.
5) Do I have to specify handing when ordering Emtek multi point lock trim?
Yes, handing is required: right hand or left hand. Stand outside the door, on the side it swings away from you; if the hinges are on your right it is right hand. Getting it backwards on a multi point trim means the lever and the cylinder cutout land on the wrong side of the plate, and the set will not mount.
6) What lever styles can I get on the Emtek Tuscany 1232 bronze trim?
Four Tuscany lever choices: Medici, Napoli, Octagon, and Padua. Lever selection is required at order time, and the trim accepts any of the lost wax cast bronze Tuscany levers, so you can match the levers already on the entry doors rather than introducing a second pattern in the house.
7) What finishes does the Emtek 1232 Tuscany trim come in, and will the bronze change over time?
Two finishes: Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB). The plates and levers are lost wax cast bronze, a solid bronze substrate rather than a plated zinc, so the surface wears into a patina with handling instead of flaking off a coating. That is the trade-off to understand before matching it to a painted or plated handleset elsewhere on the house, since a living bronze finish will not stay identical to a fixed one.
8) My patio door levers sag. Does Emtek's multi point trim fix that?
Yes. The 1232 trim ships with Emtek's Spring Assist function, which returns the lever to the neutral horizontal position. Sagging handles on multi point patio doors are the most common complaint after a few years of use, and spring assist in the trim is what holds the lever level rather than relying on the gearbox spring.
9) How big are the Emtek 1232 plates, and will they cover the old plate's screw holes?
The Tuscany plates measure 1-1/2 by 11-1/8 inches. Lay that against your existing plate before ordering: an 11-1/8 inch plate conceals the footprint of a similar or smaller escutcheon, but it will not hide marks left by a taller plate. The cross bore behind it is 2-1/8 inches and the backset adjusts to 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, which are the standard prep dimensions in most doors.
10) Does the Emtek 1232 need electrical power or wiring?
No wiring at all. The 1232 is entirely mechanical, with no electronic components, so there is nothing to power, no access control integration, and nothing to fail when the power drops. The levers drive the multi point gearbox by hand.
11) Is the latch faceplate on Emtek 1232 round corner or square corner?
Either is available, round corner or square corner. Pull the existing latch and look at the faceplate mortise in the door edge: square corners mean the pocket was routed square, and dropping a round corner plate in leaves gaps at the corners. Match what is already cut.
