Emtek F20.3531.75.RH.FB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the Emtek 3531 Da Vinci mortise entry set?
Handing is required on every Emtek 3531 order, and it is not field reversible. You pick left hand or right hand, and also whether the door swings in or out, so there are four handing choices in total (LH in-swing, LH out-swing, RH in-swing, RH out-swing). Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is a left hand door. Get this wrong and the lever or knob will be upside down and the latch bevel will face the wrong way.
2) What is the difference between the F20 and F13 function on the Emtek 3531 mortise lock?
Both functions are offered on the 3531 lost wax cast bronze entry set. F20 is the standard entrance function, the common choice for a front door where the key retracts the deadbolt and the inside lever or knob gives free egress. F13 is the dormitory/apartment style function, used where the door needs to be keyed from outside and lock behind the occupant. Pick the one that matches the ANSI function called out on your hardware schedule, because the lock body differs between them.
3) Which backset do I need for the Emtek 3531, 2-1/2 inch or 2-3/4 inch?
The 3531 comes in both 2-1/2 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets. If you are replacing an existing mortise lock, measure from the edge of the door to the center of the existing knob or lever spindle and match it, since the pocket and the through-holes in the door are already cut to that dimension. On new work the 2-3/4 inch backset gives more knuckle clearance from the stop; 2-1/2 inch suits narrower stiles.
4) Will the Emtek 3531 entry set fit a 1-3/4 inch door, and what about a thicker door?
1-3/4 inch is the standard door thickness for the 3531 mortise entrance set, which covers most exterior residential doors. Thicker doors are accommodated, but the thickness has to be specified on the order so the spindles, cylinder length and mounting screws come correct. There is a door thickness field on the order for exactly that.
5) What door prep does the Emtek 3531 mortise lock require?
Standard mortise prep to ANSI A115.1. If your door is already prepped for a commercial-standard mortise lock body, the 3531 drops into that pocket, and Emtek publishes mortise lock installation instructions with the layout. Note that mortise prep is a pocket routed into the door edge, not a pair of round bores, so a door bored for a cylindrical lockset cannot take this set without being re-prepped.
6) Can I key the Emtek 3531 to my existing Schlage keys?
The 3531 uses the Schlage C keyway, so it can be keyed into an existing Schlage C system. Keying is set at order time: choose keyed different or keyed alike, and if you have a bitting or key code you want it cut to, enter it in the keying-to-code field. That is how property managers keep a whole building of doors on one key.
7) What is the closest alternative to the Emtek 3531 mortise entrance lockset for a residential entry door?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci is a residential mortise entry set in cast bronze with a 2-1/2 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and Schlage C keyway. The closest peer for a decorative residential entry is the Baldwin 6301 entry/apartment mortise lock body, offered knob by knob or lever by lever with a 2-1/2 inch backset and a door thickness range of 1-3/4 inch and over. The Baldwin 6301 is a lock body and trim pairing in the entrance/apartment function, while the 3531 ships as a complete set including latch and strike plate.
8) My door is thinner than 1-3/4 inch - is the Emtek 3531 still the right mortise lock?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci is built for 1-3/4 inch doors as standard, with thicker doors specified at time of order. For a thin stile or ornamental iron door, the Marks USA 21AC and 22AC entrance double cylinder ornamental iron mortise locks with round knob are listed for a 1 inch door thickness. For a glass door bottom rail, the Kaba Ilco BR Series is a bottom rail lock.
9) What comes in the box with the Emtek 3531 Da Vinci entry set?
It ships as a complete set: the exterior Da Vinci lost wax cast bronze handleset plate and grip, the mortise lock body, the latch and the strike plate. You still choose the inside trim, which is a required selection, and the handing, backset, function and finish.
10) What inside knob and lever choices can I pair with the Emtek 3531 handleset?
Inside trim is a required choice on the 3531 and there are sixteen options: Medici, Napoli, Octagon and Padua levers; Octagon, Parma, Petal, Diamond, Georgetown, Old Town, Bristol, Hampton, Lowell and Windsor knobs; plus Ebony and Ice White porcelain knobs. Levers are the easier grip for accessibility; porcelain and crystal knobs suit period restoration work.
11) Is there a matching non-functioning handleset for a fixed or inactive door in the Da Vinci Tuscany Bronze line?
Yes. For an inactive leaf of a double door or a door that does not need to latch, the matching Da Vinci dummy is model 3131. It uses the same Tuscany Bronze styling as the 3531 entry set so the pair of doors reads the same from the street.
12) I want a decorative mortise entry set but the door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch. What are my options?
The 3531 handles thicker doors if you state the thickness at order time. If you would rather work from a published range, the Baldwin 6301 entry/apartment mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset is listed for 1-3/4 inch and over, and the Baldwin 6310 entry/storeroom body is listed for 1-3/8 inch and over. Both are lock bodies, so trim is selected separately.
13) Is there a keyless or electronic mortise lock I can use in place of the Emtek 3531?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci is a mechanical keyed mortise set with a Schlage C keyway and no electronic components. If credential or code entry is the goal, the Alarm Lock DL3500CR is a Grade 1 electronic mortise lock with 300 user codes in the classroom function for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, the Schlage CO-100-MS-40-KP is a Grade 1 standalone electronic mortise lock with a keypad reader in the privacy function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock. None of these carries the cast bronze decorative trim of the Da Vinci series.
14) The opening does not need to be keyed - what mortise lock replaces the Emtek 3531 for a passage or privacy door?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci is a keyed single cylinder entry set. For a non-keyed opening, the Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors and the Hager 3810S is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose and a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors. For a bed or bath door, the Hager 3840S is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset and the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with a deadbolt.
15) Which mortise products look like substitutes for the Emtek 3531 but are not complete entry sets?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci ships as a complete set including latch and strike plate. Several mortise items are components only: the Sargent 130KB and 130W are mortise thumbturns, the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset with no latch, the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a deadbolt-function mortise lock with no handing, and the Schlage L0170 is half dummy trim in the L Series with no latching function. None of those will operate an entry door on their own.
16) Is there an alternative to the Emtek 3531 dormitory function for a corridor or dormitory door in a commercial building?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci is offered in the ANSI F13 dormitory function as well as the F20 entrance function. On the commercial side, the Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt in the corridor/dormitory function. The Sargent uses rose trim rather than the cast bronze decorative trim of the Da Vinci set.
17) Do any alternatives to the Emtek 3531 avoid the handing requirement?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci requires handing to be specified as left or right, in-swing or out-swing, as do all Emtek mortise locks. If handing flexibility matters, the Kaba Ilco 185 Series mortise lock is listed with no handing, the BEST 45HCAC mortise lock body is field reversible, and the Falcon MA101 Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock is also field reversible.
18) The Emtek 3531 is bronze - what if I need stainless steel or a ligature resistant mortise lockset?
The Emtek 3531 Da Vinci is lost wax cast bronze in Flat Black Bronze or Medium Bronze. For behavioral health or detention openings needing stainless steel, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty anti-ligature lever mortise lockset in stainless steel in the passage function for 1-3/4 inch doors, the MRX-A-01 is the same function with satin stainless ligature resistant arch trim, and the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset in satin stainless steel that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant.
19) What finishes does the Emtek 3531 Da Vinci bronze entry set come in?
Two living finishes on the cast bronze: Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB). The body is lost wax cast bronze throughout, so the finish wears and patinas over time rather than sitting on top as a plated coat. Both finishes are available in either backset and either function.
20) Does the Emtek 3531 entry set need power or wiring?
No. The 3531 is a fully mechanical keyed mortise lockset, with no electronics, no batteries and no wiring to run. If you want keypad or credential access on a mortise prep instead, that is a different family of product, for example the Alarm Lock DL3500CR Trilogy Grade 1 electronic mortise lock or the Schlage CO-100 standalone electronic mortise lock.
