Emtek 12B1-US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek 12B1 multi point trim include the multi point lock body?
No. The 12B1 is trim only: plates, handles, and the cylinder. The multi point mortise lock box has to be ordered separately, so you need to know which lock body is already in the door (or buy one) before this set does anything. That is the normal way multi point hardware is sold, but it catches people who expect a complete lockset in one box.
2) What does Door Configuration #2 mean on Emtek multi point trim, and how do I know my door takes it?
Configuration refers to where the cylinder and handle hub sit on the plate relative to the lock body's spindle and cylinder holes. The 12B1 is Configuration #2, with the American cylinder hub ABOVE the handle and 3-5/8 inch center-to-center between the cylinder and the hub. Measure your existing door's cylinder-to-spindle spacing and the cylinder's position: if the key sits above the lever at 3-5/8 inches on center, this is the right config. If the cylinder falls below the lever, or the spacing measures anything other than 3-5/8, you need a different Emtek trim configuration.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering Emtek 12B1 multi point trim?
Yes, handing is a required choice, right hand or left hand. Multi point trim is handed because the lever throw and the plate orientation are fixed to one swing. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right, it is right hand. Getting this wrong means a lever that points the wrong way and a plate that will not line up.
4) What keyway does the Emtek 12B1 come in, and can I key it to my existing house keys?
Two keyways: Schlage (the standard) and Weiser WR5. Both are single cylinder, keyed outside with a thumbturn-free interior on the trim itself. You can order keyed different or keyed alike across multiple sets, and there is a keying-to-code field so an existing bitting can be matched. If the rest of the house runs Schlage, take the Schlage keyway and give the code; if it runs Kwikset-style Weiser, take WR5.
5) Is the Emtek 12B1 an American cylinder or a euro profile cylinder?
American cylinder. That matters because many European multi point lock bodies (G-U among them) were originally built around a euro profile cylinder, and the two are not interchangeable. If your lock body is prepped for a euro profile, this trim's American cylinder will not drop in without the correct cylinder-hub arrangement on the lock body side.
6) Will the Emtek 12B1 trim plate cover the holes my old patio door handle left behind?
The plate measures 2 x 10 inches, which is a narrow escutcheon rather than a wide one. If the outgoing hardware used a plate wider than 2 inches, the old screw holes and any oversized cylinder bore will show at the edges. On a swinging patio door stile that is usually fine, since the 2 inch width is what fits a narrow stile in the first place, but measure the exposed prep before you commit.
7) Can I match Emtek 12B1 trim to the levers and finishes on the rest of my doors?
Any Emtek brass lever can be ordered on this trim, and the lever list runs from the modern L-Square, T-Bar, and R-Bar families (faceted, hammered, knurled, Tribeca, straight knurled, white marble) through Athena, Helios, Hermes, Luzern, Poseidon, Stuttgart and the traditional Cortina, Milano, Turino, Rope, Rustic, Santa Fe and Arts and Crafts levers. Finishes are Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and Satin Brass (US4). So a patio door can carry the same lever and finish as the interior openings.
8) Does the Emtek 12B1 come with a cylinder or do I buy one separately?
The cylinder ships with the set, along with the plates and handles. You choose the keyway (Schlage or Weiser WR5) at the time of order, so there is no separate cylinder purchase. The one thing you still have to source is the multi point mortise lock body.
9) Do Emtek multi point levers sag over time?
The 12B1 trim carries a spring assist that returns the lever to neutral, which is Emtek's fix for the drooping handle problem on long multi point levers. Worth knowing if you are replacing older Emtek multi point trim that sagged, that generation did not have it.
10) Is the Emtek 12B1 electronic or does it take a smart lock?
Purely mechanical, key and lever. No electronics, no motor, no wiring in this trim. If you want keypad or app entry on a multi point patio door you need an electronic multi point trim, not this one.
11) What is the difference between the modern 2 x 10 inch Emtek multi point plate and the taller decorative plates?
The 12B1 plate is a clean 2 x 10 inch rectangle in the Modern style, contemporary in look and narrow enough for a slim patio door stile. Emtek's longer and wider multi point plates carry more decorative detail and need more flat stile face to land on. If the stile between the glass and the door edge is tight, the 2 inch width is the deciding number.
