Emtek 3326 Rectangular Full Length Sandcast Bronze Mortise Entrance Handleset - Entry Set

Yes, handing is required on every 3326 order, and it cannot be flipped in the field the way a tubular lock can. Four choices are offered: LH, RH, LHR and RHR, with the reverse-bevel LHR and RHR options being the ones for an out-swing door. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left and the door swings toward you, it's LHR. Get this wrong and the lever throws the wrong way and the latch bevel faces backwards.

The 3326 is offered in a 2-1/2 inch and a 2-3/4 inch backset, so measure from the door edge to the center of the existing cylinder hole before ordering. The lock body uses standard mortise door prep to ANSI A115.1, so if your door was previously prepped for a standard mortise lock at one of those two backsets, the pocket and face bore should take it directly. Non-standard backsets or a proprietary pocket will not.

Standard build on the 3326 is for a 1-3/4 inch door, which is the usual thickness for an exterior entry door. Thicker doors are handled, but you have to state the actual thickness when you order, since the spindle and the through-bolt length are cut to the door. There is a door thickness field on the order for exactly that.

F20 is the entrance function: key retracts the latch from outside, inside lever always free, and the outside can be locked. F13 is the dormitory function, which locks the outside trim behind you every time the door closes so it cannot be left unsecured. F13 is the one people pick for rental units, student housing and short-term rentals where a guest walking out should never leave the door unlocked. F20 is the one for a normal residence where you want to choose when it's locked.

The 3326 cylinder is a Schlage C keyway, so it takes the same C-section key blank as a standard Schlage residential lock and a locksmith can key it to an existing C-keyway system. It's a single cylinder set, meaning key outside and a thumbturn inside. Keying is orderable as keyed alike across several sets or keyed different, and a specific key code can be entered on the order if you're matching a building.

The 3326 uses a UL Listed mortise lock body with a 180 minute fire rating, which covers a 20 minute or 90 minute rated opening such as a house-to-garage door, provided the door and frame assembly itself is rated and the lock is installed per the manufacturer's instructions.

The 3326 ships as a complete set: the exterior full length handle plate, the mortise lock body, the latch and the strike plate. The interior trim is part of the order, not an add-on, but you do choose it. Any of the Sandcast Bronze knobs or levers can be paired to the inside, from levers like Durango, Teton and Cimarron to knobs like Butte, Winchester and Old Town. Pick one when you order.

The Emtek 3326 is a mortise entrance handleset with a standard mortise door prep to ANSI A115.1 and a 2-1/2 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is also entry mortise trim, offered in a single cylinder version and a double cylinder version, both listed for 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Emtek 3326 is single cylinder keyed. If the opening needs a thumbturn-free inside face keyed on both sides, the Baldwin 6542 double cylinder trim covers that case; the 3326 and the Baldwin 6542 single cylinder trim are the closer match to each other.

The Emtek 3326 requires a standard mortise door prep to ANSI A115.1 and handing must be specified, so it will not drop into a bored deadbolt-and-latch prep. Handlesets built for that prep include the Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever, a Grade 2 F Series unit for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob, a Premiere Essentials unit for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset is another entry-function option, listed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 3326 is built for 1-3/4 inch doors as standard, with thicker doors specified at time of order, and a door thickness field is part of ordering it. Handlesets whose published range already reaches 2 inches or beyond include the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial handleset with Eleganti knob, single cylinder, listed 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch; the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset, 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch; and the Deltana 810871 Montego handleset, 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.

The Emtek 3326 is a keyed single cylinder entry handleset in either F20 entrance or F13 dormitory function. Several handlesets share the look but not the function. The Weslock 6695 Belmont handleset with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest handleset with New Heaven lever are both dummy function, meaning surface-mounted trim with no latch. The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona style handleset with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function J Series unit. The Schlage Residential JI18/19 with Torino lever is a passage lock interconnected with a separate keyed deadbolt rather than a single keyed handleset.

5-1/2 inches center to center between the handle mounting points. That number matters if you're swapping onto a door already bored for a different full length handleset, since a mismatch leaves the old holes exposed on the face of the door. On a fresh door it is drilled to the template supplied with the set.

The 3326 is built and catalogued for residential use, despite carrying a mortise lock body. It's a fit for a house, a townhome, a custom or rustic-style front entry, and it works well on multi-family unit doors, especially in the F13 dormitory function. For a storefront or a high-traffic commercial opening you want a Grade 1 commercial mortise lock instead, which is a different class of product from this one.

A mortise set puts the latch and the deadlocking into one lock body inside a machined pocket in the door edge, so it's one prep and one mechanism, and it's what a heavy or tall custom entry door usually calls for. A tubular handleset is two separate bores, a deadbolt above and a knob or lever latch below, and it's a simpler retrofit into a door already drilled that way. If your door has no mortise pocket, a tubular set like the Schlage Residential F60 Addison, a Grade 2 handleset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors is the far easier swap. Cutting a mortise pocket into an already-hung door is millwork.

The closest mortise alternative in the same class is the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim, offered in single cylinder and double cylinder versions, both for a 1-3/4 inch door. That's mortise trim, so it's the trim over a mortise lock rather than a full set the way the 3326 ships. If it's the cast solid-metal handleset look you're after rather than mortise specifically, Deltana's solid brass entry handlesets, the Hanover 803871B, the St. Ann 815871 and the Kingston 825871, are the peers in feel.

Three finishes on the 3326: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB) and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). These are Emtek's Sandcast Bronze collection finishes, so they match the other Sandcast Bronze knobs, levers and trim in that same collection across a house. Sandcast bronze is a living finish, so pieces vary slightly by casting, which is the point of the look but worth knowing if you expect factory-uniform plating.

Yes, keyed alike is a no-charge option on the 3326, so a front, back and side entry can all run one key. Keyed different is the other choice. Because the cylinder is a Schlage C keyway, these can also be brought into an existing C-keyway master or key-alike system by a locksmith, and there is a field to submit a specific key code if you're matching keys already in circulation.

The Emtek 3326 is a mechanical, non-electronic handleset with a Schlage C keyway and a UL 180 minute fire rating. Keypad alternatives include the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset with Halifax lever interior trim and a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt, SmartKey, with RCAL latch and RCS strike, a Signature Series unit for 1-3/4 inch doors. Yale Real Living offers touchscreen deadbolts paired with the Ridgefield handleset: the BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock standalone touchscreen and the BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, both listed 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Going electronic means giving up the mortise case and fire rating the 3326 carries.

The Emtek 3326 is a sandcast bronze mortise entrance set that requires handing, a mortise prep, and a keyway and keying decision at order. Simpler bored-prep keyed sets include the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever, Grade 2, entrance function, 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset from the HDLB Series, also entrance function. Kwikset offers exterior-only Grade 3 keyed handlesets for 1-3/4 inch doors, including the 687AMD Amador with SmartKey and the 687BW Belleview with SmartKey, useful when the inside trim is being kept.

The Emtek 3326 is bronze, both material and substrate, offered in Flat Black Bronze, Medium Bronze, and Tumbled White Bronze. Deltana's entry handlesets are solid brass: the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann, and the 825871 Kingston, all entry function. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset is another option in that group, listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. These are separate series from one another, so confirm the escutcheon shape against the door before ordering.

No. The Emtek 3326 is sold as a complete set including the latch and strike plate, with inside knob or lever trim selected at order. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and the 687BW Belleview are exterior-only single cylinder keyed handlesets, Grade 3, for 1-3/4 inch doors, supplied without the interior trim. The 687AMD comes in a SmartKey version and an SC1 keyway SmartKey version. Those are replacement exterior halves, so they suit a door where the existing interior trim stays in place, not a full opening changeover.

The Emtek 3326 is keyed, single cylinder, on a Schlage C keyway with keyed alike or keyed different options at order. Key-free alternatives pair a touchscreen deadbolt with a handleset: the Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX Assure key free touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield passage handleset and trim, connected by August, Wi-Fi, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Yale Real Living Assure Lock 2 key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset, listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Note the handleset half in those sets is passage function, with the security coming from the deadbolt.

The Emtek 3326 takes any sandcast bronze knob or lever as the inside trim, with knob choices including Butte, Winchester, Bristol, Hampton, Lowell, Windsor, Astoria, Georgetown, Old Town, and Providence, so the knob-inside configuration is available within the same set. Among other brands, the Baldwin Wesley handleset pairs with an Alcott knob or a Carnaby knob, both entrance function, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial pairs with the Eleganti knob as a single cylinder keyed entry set for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
