Emtek 472222-FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does double cylinder mean on this Emtek entrance handleset?
Double cylinder means the deadbolt is keyed on both sides, so it takes a key to throw or retract the bolt from the interior as well as the exterior. That is what people specify for doors with glass nearby or sidelights, where a thumbturn could be reached and turned from outside. If you want a thumbturn inside instead, you need the single cylinder version rather than the 472222.
2) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the Emtek Octagon handleset?
Handing is required, right hand or left hand. If you pair the exterior handleset with an interior lever, the lever has to be handed so it points the correct way when installed. Knobs are not directional, but handing is still called out on the order so the set arrives correct for your opening.
3) Can I key this Emtek handleset into my existing Schlage or Weiser keys?
Standard cylinders are Schlage C keyway, so it keys into an existing Schlage C system. A Weiser WR5 keyway version is also offered at no upcharge for the cylinder substitution and can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Keying can be ordered keyed alike with other locks or keyed different, and you can supply a key code.
4) What handleset can replace the Emtek 472222 Octagon on a 2-1/4 inch thick door?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon entrance handleset covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, so a thicker slab needs a different set. The Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial handleset with Eleganti knob is listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors in a single cylinder keyed entry function, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock standalone touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset is also listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
5) Is there a single cylinder alternative to the Emtek 472222 double cylinder handleset?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon is a double cylinder set, meaning the interior deadbolt is key operated rather than thumbturn. If a key-inside function is not wanted, single cylinder handlesets include the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson knob, and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is offered both as double cylinder entry mortise trim and as single cylinder entry mortise trim.
6) What interior trim comes with the Emtek 472222 and do I choose it?
Interior trim is a required selection, and the 472222 can take any Lost Wax Bronze knob or lever. Lever choices are Medici, Napoli, Octagon and Padua. Knob choices are Octagon, Parma, Petal, Diamond, Georgetown, Old Town, Bristol, Hampton, Lowell, Windsor, plus Ebony and Ice White porcelain. The set ships complete with the latch and strike plate.
7) Is this Emtek handleset suitable for a commercial entrance?
It is a residential product. Construction is solid cast bronze with a tubular entry lock, which suits houses, condos and light multi-family front doors. For a commercial opening where a graded lock is specified, look at a Grade 2 handleset such as the Schlage Residential F60 Addison or the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset instead.
8) What is the difference between this tubular Emtek handleset and a mortise handleset?
The 472222 is a tubular set: it drops into a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door with a separate deadbolt bore 5-1/2 inches away, so no mortise pocket has to be routed. A mortise handleset such as the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont double cylinder entry trim requires a mortise case pocket in the door edge and is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors only. If your door is already bored for a standard handleset, the tubular Emtek is the direct fit.
9) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. Will the Emtek 472222 still work?
Yes, up to 2 inches. The stated range is 1-3/8 to 2 inches, so a 1-7/8 or 2 inch slab is covered. Enter your actual door thickness when ordering. If your door runs above 2 inches, a set listed to 2-1/4 inches such as the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial is the better route.
10) I want keypad entry instead of the Emtek 472222 keyed handleset - what are the options?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon is a mechanical, non-electronic keyed handleset. For keypad or app control, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset pairs a Halifax lever interior with a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock combines a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
11) Which of these handlesets are not keyed and will not substitute for the Emtek 472222?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon is a keyed entrance set with two cylinders, so several similar-looking handlesets will not do the same job. The Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever are dummy function handlesets for inactive doors, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function, and the Schlage JI18/19 interconnected set is a passage lock paired with a separate keyed deadbolt.
12) What is a graded alternative to the Emtek 472222 handleset for a rental property?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon is a residential lost wax cast bronze handleset. If a stated ANSI grade matters for a rental turn, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Master Lock HDLB series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is Grade 2, and the Kwikset 687BW Belleview is Grade 3 for 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) Are there brass handlesets comparable to the Emtek 472222 for the same door thickness range?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon is cast bronze and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset is listed for the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range, and Deltana also offers the 803871B Hanover, 815871 St. Ann, and 825871 Kingston handlesets in solid brass with an entry function.
14) The Emtek 472222 requires choosing a backset - which handlesets adjust instead?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon ships with a 2-3/8 inch backset latch as standard and 2-3/4 inch must be specified at order. If you would rather not commit to a backset, the Sure-Loc Aspen AN507, Alta AT507, Coral CR507, and Madison MA507 handlesets are all built with an adjustable backset.
15) What finishes does the Emtek Octagon bronze handleset come in?
Two cast bronze finishes: Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB). Both are available with either the standard Schlage keyway or the Weiser WR5 keyway. A split finish (different finish inside versus out) can also be requested when ordering.
16) Is the Emtek Octagon handleset electronic or keypad operated?
No, it is fully mechanical, key operated on both sides. If you want a keypad or smart deadbolt behind a handleset trim, the Kwikset 815 San Clemente with SmartCode keypad or a Yale Assure touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset covers that instead.
17) Will the Emtek Octagon bronze handleset match other Tuscany bronze hardware in the house?
It belongs to Emtek's Tuscany Bronze collection of lost wax cast bronze hardware, so it is meant to be specified alongside other Tuscany bronze knobs, levers and accessories. Because the finishes are cast bronze, order all openings in the same finish code (FB or MB) if you want them to read consistently across the house.
18) Can I get an exterior-only handleset trim like the Emtek 472222 without interior trim?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon is sold as a complete set including latch and strike plate, with a required interior knob or lever selection. If only the exterior escutcheon and grip are wanted, the Kwikset 687AMD Amador with SmartKey and the Kwikset 687BW Belleview are both listed as exterior only for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the 687AMD is also offered with an SC1 keyway.
19) What is a comparable handleset with matching knob trim if the Emtek 472222 Octagon style is not the look I want?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon is a Tuscany bronze handleset ordered with a coordinating interior knob or lever. For other styling in a handleset-plus-knob pairing, the Baldwin Wesley handleset comes matched with the Alcott knob or the Carnaby knob, both in an entrance function, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder handleset in satin nickel for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
20) Is there a key-free handleset option as an alternative to the Emtek 472222 Schlage C keyway?
The Emtek 472222 Octagon uses a Schlage C keyway as standard, with a Weiser WR5 cylinder available. For a key-free opening instead, the Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX Assure key free touchscreen deadbolt pairs with a Ridgefield passage handleset and trim on 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the BYRD410BLERX Assure Lock 2 key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset is listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
