Emtek 451211-MB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Emtek Denver handleset drop into an existing door prep, or do I have to re-bore the door?
Standard prep, no re-bore in most cases. The Denver handleset uses a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing between the deadbolt and the knob or lever bore, which is the common residential handleset layout. Backset is either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches and you pick which one at order time, so measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before you specify.
2) Can I key the Emtek Denver handleset into my existing Schlage or Weiser keys?
Both. The Denver handleset ships standard with a Schlage C keyway, and a Weiser WR5 keyway version is available at no upcharge for the cylinder substitution, which lets it be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Keying is offered keyed different or keyed alike, and you can supply a key code at order time if you are matching an existing system.
3) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek Denver handleset?
Handing matters here. Left or right hand is required on the order. It becomes critical if you are using a lever for the interior trim or specifying an interconnect device, since those are handed parts. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it is a right hand door.
4) What comes in the box with the Emtek Denver handleset, and what else do I need to order?
It's sold as a complete set with the latch and strike plate included. What you must still choose is the inside trim: the Denver exterior handle takes any sandcast bronze knob or lever, and you pick one when ordering from 10 lever styles (Aurora, Bryce, Cimarron, Cody, Durango, Lariat, Mariposa, Montrose, Teton, Yuma) or 15 knob styles including Butte, Egg, Round, Winchester, Windsor and Modern Square. You also specify handing, backset, and finish.
5) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. Will the Emtek Denver still work, or do I need something else?
Up to 2 inches, yes, the Denver covers 1-3/8 through 2 inch doors. Past 2 inches it won't reach. For a thicker door, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial single cylinder handleset covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, as do the Yale Assure Ridgefield handleset packages. Several common handlesets are 1-3/4 only, including the Kwikset 687 Amador and Belleview, so thickness is worth settling before you pick a style.
6) What is the difference between a tubular handleset like the Emtek Denver and a mortise entry trim like the Baldwin 6542 Tremont?
The Emtek 451211 Denver is a tubular lock with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center door prep, and a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset - it goes into a standard bored door prep. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont single cylinder entry mortise trim is mortise trim for a 1-3/4 inch door, which means a mortise pocket routed into the door edge rather than a bored prep. They are not interchangeable in an existing door without changing the prep. Baldwin also builds the 6542 Tremont as double cylinder entry mortise trim for the same 1-3/4 inch thickness when the opening needs a key on both sides, where the Denver is single cylinder.
7) Which handleset gives the same look but with keyless or keypad entry instead of a cylinder?
The Emtek 451211 Denver is a mechanical, non-electronic handleset keyed to a Schlage C or Weiser WR5 cylinder. For an electronic opening, the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX pairs a standalone touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield handleset, and the BYRD226CBARX is the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth version of the same handleset; both are specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset with Halifax lever pairs a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt with a 1-3/4 inch door thickness. Note the thickness ranges: those electronic sets start at 1-3/4 inch, while the Denver starts at 1-3/8 inch.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek Denver 451211 entrance handleset from another brand?
The Emtek 451211 Denver is a single cylinder entry handleset with a tubular lock in sandcast bronze. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest handleset with Hudson knob is the nearest match in the group: it is a single cylinder handleset and covers a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, the same range the Denver handles. The Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob is also a single cylinder keyed entry handleset, but its door thickness range runs 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, so it starts where the Denver's range is ending - on a 1-3/8 inch door the Denver or the Hillcrest is the one that fits.
9) The door is 1-3/4 inch thick and needs a Grade 2 entry handleset - what works?
The Emtek 451211 Denver covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, so a 1-3/4 inch door is inside its range, but the Denver is a residential handleset and no grade rating is part of how it is specified. When the spec on the drawing calls out a grade, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is Grade 2 and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Master Lock HDLB series HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset is also Grade 2 with an entrance function. Both are the ones to quote when the submittal wants a grade against the part number.
10) What handleset should I use on a door that does not need a key - a closet or a double door inactive leaf?
The Emtek 451211 Denver is a keyed single cylinder entry handleset, so it is the wrong part for an opening that never locks. For a non-keyed opening the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest dummy handleset with New Heaven lever and the Weslock 6695 Belmont dummy handleset with Impresa knob are both dummy function and both cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, matching the Denver's thickness range. If the opening should latch but not lock, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona handleset with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) Single cylinder or double cylinder for a front door with glass next to it?
The Emtek 451211 Denver is a single cylinder entry handleset, meaning key outside and thumbturn inside. That's the normal choice and the one most residential codes want, since a thumbturn lets you get out without a key. If there is glass within reach of the inside turn and you want key-both-sides, a double cylinder trim is a different part, for example the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont double cylinder entry mortise trim. Check your local egress code before going double cylinder.
12) Is the Emtek Denver handleset suitable for a commercial building entrance?
It's built and catalogued for residential use. For a multi-family unit entry door or a single-family home it's the right kind of part, but for a commercial opening that needs a graded lock you'd want something rated for it. Among comparable handlesets, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison is Grade 2 and the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is Grade 2.
13) Will an entry handleset for a 1-3/8 inch door be hard to find if I do not use the Emtek Denver?
The Emtek 451211 Denver covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Among the comparable entry handlesets, the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset in satin nickel covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch and the Schlage Residential F60 Addison covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch at Grade 2 - both reach the thin end. The Kwikset 687BW Belleview single cylinder handleset and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador are both specified at 1-3/4 inch, so they will not suit a 1-3/8 inch door. Confirm the leaf thickness before substituting.
14) Is the Kwikset 687 Amador handleset a substitute for the Emtek Denver 451211?
Not a complete one. The Kwikset 687AMD SMT Amador is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset, but it is exterior only - it does not bring the inside trim with it, while the Denver 451211 is sold as a complete set including latch and strike plate, with the inside knob or lever specified as part of the order. The Amador is also a Grade 3 handleset for a 1-3/4 inch door, where the Denver covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The 687AMD SMC is the same exterior-only handleset built around an SC1 keyway with SmartKey, so if the keying plan is Schlage C the Denver's standard cylinder is the direct route and the Kwikset is not.
15) What is a simpler solid brass entry handleset alternative to the Emtek Denver sandcast bronze?
The Emtek 451211 Denver is a sandcast bronze handleset in the Sandcast Bronze collection, with the bronze substrate carried through the set. If the job wants solid brass instead, Deltana builds several entry handlesets: the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann, and the 825871 Kingston are all solid brass entry function handlesets. Deltana's 810871 Montego handleset covers a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness, the same range as the Denver, so it drops into the same doors.
16) I need a keyed deadbolt plus a lever on the same door instead of a handleset - what is the alternative?
The Emtek 451211 Denver is an entry handleset with a single cylinder, and handing has to be specified if a lever is used on the inside or an interconnect device is called for. When the opening wants a separate keyed deadbolt over a lever rather than a grip handleset, the Schlage Residential JI18/19 interconnected passage lock with keyed deadbolt and Torino lever in satin stainless steel does that: passage function at the lever with the deadbolt doing the locking, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. It is a different look on the exterior - no grip plate - so on a fleet of doors already carrying handlesets the Denver keeps the elevation consistent.
17) Which entry handlesets come with the interior knob already chosen, rather than specified separately?
With the Emtek 451211 Denver, the inside trim is chosen at order time - it can be ordered with any sandcast bronze knob or lever. Baldwin sells the Wesley handleset as fixed knob pairings instead: the 180WYHXATK is Wesley handleset with Alcott knob and the 180WYHXCYK is Wesley handleset with Carnaby knob, both entrance function. Weslock does the same on the 2810 Hillcrest, which comes as a single cylinder handleset with the Hudson knob. If a purchasing group wants one part number that carries both sides of the door, those are the ones; if the interior style needs to match knobs already on the other doors, the Denver's separate trim selection is what allows it.
18) Can a Yale Assure key-free handleset replace a keyed handleset on the same door?
They serve the opening differently. The Emtek 451211 Denver is keyed with a single cylinder, which is what allows it to be keyed alike into an existing Schlage C system or, with the Weiser WR5 cylinder, into an existing Weiser system. The Yale BYRD256 CBARX Assure key free touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield passage handleset and trim uses a passage handleset with the deadbolt carrying the credential, and the BYRD410BLERX Assure Lock 2 key-free set with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset works the same way - key free means there is no cylinder to key into a master system. Those Yale sets fit 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch and 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors respectively. For a property standardizing keys across a set of doors, the Denver stays in the keying system.
19) What finishes does the Emtek Denver sandcast bronze handleset come in?
Three: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB), and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). All three are available with either the Schlage or Weiser keyway. Because these are sandcast bronze, they are living finishes that shift with handling and weather, which is why they read differently door to door on the same house. A split finish is available on request if you want the exterior and interior trim finished differently.
20) What is the difference between the Emtek Denver sandcast bronze handleset and a standard cast brass or steel handleset?
Material and how it ages. The Denver is solid sandcast bronze, poured in a sand mold, so each piece carries a slightly irregular surface texture rather than the uniform plated look of a stamped or die-cast brass handleset. Emtek groups it in the Sandcast Bronze collection with a rustic look, and the inside trim is chosen from matching sandcast bronze knobs and levers so the set reads as one piece.
