Emtek 2153 Narrow Modern Rectangular Pocket Door Mortise Lock (2" x 7-1/4") - Keyed

No. The 2153 is non-handed, so the same set works on a door that slides left or right out of the pocket. What you do have to specify is door thickness and your keying preference.

Keyed. Every finish of the 2153 is sold in the keyed function, so it takes a key from the outside face, which is what you want on a pocket door closing off an office, a home office suite, or a storage room. If you only need bed/bath privacy on a pocket door, the Deltana SDL25 or the Orca Hardware PDLSQ are privacy function instead, and the Weslock 0527 is straight passage with no locking at all.

Yes, Emtek pocket door mortise locks key alike to each other, and keyed alike is a no-cost option at order time. The limit worth knowing: they may not key alike with other Emtek products, so don't plan on one key covering these pocket doors and your Emtek entry handlesets. You can also submit a key code if you're matching an existing system.

For a bathroom or bedroom pocket door where a thumbturn is enough, the Weslock 0577 is a rectangular privacy pocket door lock with adjustable backset and full lip strike, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Omnia 7012/L is a modern rectangular pocket door lock with privacy function and emergency release, keeping the rectangular trim shape. For a closet or hall door with no locking at all, the Weslock 0527 is a rectangular passage pocket door lock for the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thickness range. The Emtek 2153 is the keyed version, so any of these three change the function rather than the style of opening.

The Omnia 7035/A is the nearest match in the keyed pocket door category. It is a keyed entry pocket door lock with modern rectangular trim and solid brass construction, so it lines up with the Emtek 2153 on both function and trim shape - the 2153 is a keyed mortise pocket door lock in a narrow modern rectangular series, 2 inches by 7-1/4 inches, in solid brass. The two differ in trim proportion, so confirm the existing cutout before swapping one for the other on a door already prepped.

No - the trim shape drives the door prep. The Emtek 2153 uses rectangular trim measuring 2 inches by 7-1/4 inches. Round-trim pocket door locks such as the Orca Hardware PDLRD, the Pamex PF2 with its 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Weslock 0627 round passage pocket door lock take a different face cutout, and the Pamex PF2 backset does not match the 2-1/8 inch backset the Emtek 2153 uses. Treat a round-to-rectangular change as a re-prep of the door edge and face, not a drop-in.

The Emtek 2153 needs a minimum door thickness of 1-3/8 inch, with the actual thickness specified when ordering. For a thinner slab, the Pamex PF1 square style sliding door lock and the Pamex PF2 round sliding door lock both cover a 1-5/16 inch to 1-9/16 inch thickness range, which takes in the 1-3/8 inch doors as well as the lighter slabs below it. The PF1 keeps a square face; the PF2 is round.

Seven: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and Satin Brass (US4). All are on solid brass. If you're matching other openings in the building, note that unlacquered brass is a living finish and will darken with handling rather than staying as delivered.

The trim plate measures 2 x 7-1/4 inches and is 1/8 inch thick. That is a narrow rectangular plate, so it suits a slim pocket door stile and sits nearly flush, which matters because a pocket door has to pass into the wall pocket without the trim fouling the jamb. If you're covering a larger existing cutout, a taller plate like the Deltana SDL60 6 inch lock or the adjustable Deltana SDLA325 at 3-1/4 x 2-1/4 inches has a different footprint.

Residential. The 2153 is a solid brass residential pocket door mortise lock, so it fits single family, multi-family unit interiors, and light hospitality guest suites. For a high-traffic commercial pocket door, look at something built for the duty instead, such as the Rockwood 891 pocket door privacy latch.

Both are keyed entry pocket door locks in a modern rectangular trim, and both are solid brass. The 2153 is the narrow rectangular plate at 2 x 7-1/4 inches with a 2-1/8 inch backset, non-handed, sold as a set with strike and screws. The Omnia 7035/A is the keyed entry version of Omnia's modern rectangular pocket door family, whose privacy sibling the 7012/L adds an emergency release and whose 7012/N passage version includes a mortise edge pull. If the room needs a keyed lock, either works; pick on trim proportion and finish match to the rest of the openings.

The 2153 set covers the lock body, trim plates, strikeplate, and screws. An edge pull is a separate part. Some competing sets bundle it, for instance the Omnia 7012/N passage lock includes a mortise edge pull, so if you want the pull integrated rather than ordered on its own that's worth knowing when you spec the opening.

Only one leaf gets the 2153, since a keyed mortise lock latches into a strike. On a biparting pair the second leaf normally takes dummy trim so the two faces match. Omnia's 7012/PD is a pair dummy in the same modern rectangular styling if you're going that route. Keeping both leaves in one finish family matters more than the function here.

No. The Emtek 2153 is the mortise lock and trim set that mounts in the door itself, sold complete with screws and strikeplate. The Orca Hardware PK1200 is a pocket door frame set for doors 1 inch or 1-3/4 inch thick, and the NGP SLAL250PD72 is a 72 inch aluminum pocket door track rated up to 250 pounds. Those two carry and house the door; neither latches or keys it. A full pocket door opening usually takes one of each - frame or track for the movement, and a lock like the 2153 for the function.

Where nothing needs to lock, the Deltana SDP25 is a passage pocket door lock with a compact 2-1/2 inch by 2-3/4 inch trim, and the Omnia 7012/N is a modern rectangular pocket door passage lock with a mortise edge pull. If the door only needs a matching face plate and no latching at all, the Omnia 7012/PD is a pair dummy pocket door lock set with mortise edge pull. The Emtek 2153 is the keyed mortise version with strikeplate and screws included, which is more hardware than a closet opening calls for.

The Emtek 2153 carries a 2 inch by 7-1/4 inch narrow rectangular trim plate 1/8 inch thick in a contemporary style. For a tall plate without a key, the Deltana SDL60 is a decorative pocket door lock with a 6 inch privacy trim. For a compact plate instead, the Deltana SDL25 is a 2-1/2 inch by 2-3/4 inch privacy pocket door lock and the Orca Hardware PDLSQ is a square privacy pocket door lock. Plate footprint decides the face mortise, so match the plate to what is already cut if the door is prepped.

Purely mechanical. The 2153 is a keyed brass mortise lock with no electronic or electrified option, so there is no wiring, no power transfer, and nothing to fail when the building loses power. For a pocket door that's usually the right answer anyway, since running power into a sliding leaf is a problem you don't want to solve.
