Emtek 4817-US19 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) My door is 2-1/4 inches thick. Will the Emtek 4817 Ares handleset work?
No. The Ares 4817 tops out at 2 inches of door thickness. For a 2-1/4 inch door you need a set rated that far: the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial handleset covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches, and the Yale Real Living Ridgefield handleset sets run 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches if you also want an electronic deadbolt. Measure the actual leaf, not the frame.
2) What door prep does the Emtek 4817 handleset need, and can it go into an existing bore?
Standard residential prep. The Ares 4817 uses a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing between the deadbolt bore and the knob bore. If the door already has a 2-1/8 inch bore at 5-1/2 inch CTC (the common prep on most residential entry doors), it drops in. A door bored at 5-1/2 inch CTC for a separate knob and deadbolt is the same layout. Backset is where you have to be careful: the standard latch ships for 2-3/8 inch, and you must specify 2-3/4 inch if that is what the door is bored for.
3) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek 4817 Ares handleset?
Handing is required on every order of the 4817, left hand or right hand. Emtek calls it out specifically when a lever is used on the inside trim or when an interconnect device is specified, and handing is a required selection on the order either way. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, hinges on the right is right hand.
4) What is included with the Emtek 4817 Ares handleset, and what else do I need to order?
Sold as a complete set with the latch and strike plate, so the exterior handle, the keyed cylinder, the latch and the strike all come in the box. What you must choose is the inside trim: the 4817 requires a knob or lever selection from the Emtek brass range, and that is a required pick, not an accessory afterthought. You also select handing, backset, and the keying arrangement. No separate deadbolt purchase is involved, and no strike plate to source separately.
5) Is the Emtek 4817 Ares a mortise handleset or a tubular one, and which should I use?
The 4817 Ares is a tubular handleset, single cylinder, entry function, in solid brass. Tubular means it installs into standard round bores, a 2-1/8 inch cross bore at 5-1/2 inch CTC, rather than a deep rectangular pocket routed into the edge of the door. That makes it the right choice for retrofitting a normal residential entry door or for new doors bored to standard prep. A mortise handleset, like the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont trim, needs the door prepped with a mortise pocket and is the option when you are matching an existing mortise body or need a heavier lock case. If your door is not already mortised, tubular is the far simpler install.
6) My door is bored for a 2-3/4 inch backset. Will the Emtek 4817 work?
Yes, but you have to say so. The standard latch supplied with the 4817 is a 2-3/8 inch backset, and 2-3/4 inch is a selection you make at the time of order. Measure from the door edge to the centre of the bore before you order; on residential doors it is almost always one or the other, and installing a 2-3/8 latch in a 2-3/4 bore leaves the handle in the wrong place and the latch short of the strike.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek 4817 Ares handleset if I need a solid brass entry handleset from another brand?
The Deltana 803871B Hanover, 815871 St. Ann, and 825871 Kingston are all solid brass entry handlesets and are the nearest match in material and function to the Emtek 4817 Ares, which is a brass entry handleset with a tubular lock. The Deltana 810871 Montego covers a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, the same range the 4817 Ares covers. Where the 4817 Ares differs is on the trim side: it takes any Emtek brass knob or lever for the inside trim, so the interior style is chosen separately from the exterior handle.
8) I have a 1-3/4 inch exterior door - which entry handlesets fit besides the Emtek 4817 Ares?
The Emtek 4817 Ares handleset covers doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, so a 1-3/4 inch door is inside its range. Among comparable entry handlesets, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington both cover 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview are listed at 1-3/4 inch. If the door is thicker than 2 inch, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
9) I want keypad or smartphone entry instead of a keyed handleset - what replaces the Emtek 4817 Ares?
The Emtek 4817 Ares is a non-electronic single cylinder keyed handleset. For electronic entry on a handleset, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente pairs a Halifax lever handleset with a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt. The Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock is a standalone touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield handleset, the BYRD226CBARX adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and the BYRD256 CBARX is a key-free touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield passage handleset and trim connected by August. The Yale Ridgefield sets cover 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, so confirm the door before switching.
10) Which handlesets look like the Emtek 4817 Ares but will not lock the door?
Watch the function line. The Emtek 4817 Ares is an entry function single cylinder handleset with a keyed exterior. The Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever are both dummy function, so they are surface-mounted trim with no latch operation. The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a non-keyed handleset. Any of the three will fit an opening that needs matching appearance on an inactive leaf, but none of them will key an entrance the way the 4817 Ares does.
11) My door is prepped for a mortise lock body - can I use the Emtek 4817 Ares?
No. The Emtek 4817 Ares is a tubular lock using a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with 5-1/2 inch center-to-center door prep and a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. For an opening already prepped for a mortise case, the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim is the comparable, offered in single cylinder as the 6542ENTR and double cylinder as the 6542DBLC, both for a 1-3/4 inch door.
12) I need matching entry handlesets on several units. Can Emtek 4817 sets be keyed alike?
Keyed alike is a standard ordering choice on the 4817, as is keyed different, and there is a field for keying to a specific code so a batch matches an existing system. With the Schlage C cylinder you can bring them onto an existing Schlage-keyed property; with the Weiser WR5 substitution you can key into an existing Weiser system instead, at no upcharge. Between those two, most residential portfolios can be standardised without rekeying the rest of the doors.
13) What inside knobs and levers can I put on an Emtek 4817 Ares handleset?
Any Emtek brass knob or lever works as the inside trim, and the range is wide: contemporary bar and square designs (L-Square, T-Bar and R-Bar in faceted, hammered, knurled, Tribeca, straight knurled and white marble), levers including Stuttgart, Helios, Athena, Hermes, Poseidon, Argos and Hercules, traditional knobs like Egg, Melon, Providence and Waverly, and crystal knobs such as Windsor, Bristol, Georgetown and Old Town. If you are matching other openings in the house, pick the same trim you have elsewhere in the Emtek brass collection. Note that choosing a lever for the inside makes handing part of the order.
14) Single cylinder or double cylinder for a front door with glass next to it?
The 4817 Ares is single cylinder: key outside, thumbturn inside. That is the normal choice and the one most codes prefer, because the inside always releases without a key. If the door has glass within reach of the inside turn and you want to remove the key-free inside release, that calls for a double cylinder set, and the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is offered in a double cylinder entry version. Understand what you are giving up before you go that way: a double cylinder needs a key in hand to get out.
15) Is the Emtek Ares 4817 suitable for a commercial building entrance?
It is a residential handleset. The Ares 4817 is a solid brass tubular entry set built for houses and multi-family unit doors, not for a commercial storefront or a rated opening. For a commercial entrance you want a graded commercial lockset rather than a decorative residential handleset. Inside a residential portfolio, though, including apartment unit doors, it is squarely in its range.
16) What is a good alternative to the Emtek 4817 if I need something cheaper or a graded lock?
Depends what you are optimising for. The Emtek Ares 4817 is a solid brass decorative set with a wide inside trim choice. If you want a graded residential set, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is Grade 2 and fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is also Grade 2. Kwikset's 687 Amador and 687 Belleview are Grade 3 exterior-only handlesets for 1-3/4 inch doors. Watch the thickness: several of those stop at 1-3/4 inches, where the Ares 4817 goes to 2 inches, so on a thick door the Emtek or a Weslock 2810 Hillcrest (1-3/8 to 2 inches) is the one that still fits.
17) Can I get the Emtek Ares handleset with a keypad or smart lock instead of a key?
The 4817 Ares is a mechanical, key-operated set with no electronic component. If you want keypad or app entry in a handleset, the Kwikset 815 San Clemente with Halifax lever pairs the handleset with a SmartCode electronic deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and Yale's Assure Lock Ridgefield handlesets offer touchscreen deadbolts, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth versions, for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors. Choose the Emtek if you want solid brass and a matched decorative trim; choose those if keyless access is the requirement.
18) Is the Emtek 4817 an interconnected lock, and can it be ordered that way?
An interconnect device can be specified with the 4817, and doing so makes handing a required part of the order the same way an inside lever does. Interconnect is what lets a single turn of the inside lever retract the latch and the deadbolt together, which is what a lot of multi-family unit doors need for egress. If you want a factory-built interconnected lock instead, the Schlage Residential JI Series JI18/19 is an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
19) Is the Kwikset 687 Amador a drop-in substitute for the Emtek 4817 Ares?
They are both single cylinder keyed entry handlesets, but they are not the same purchase. The Emtek 4817 Ares is sold as a complete set including latch and strike plate, with the inside trim ordered as any Emtek brass knob or lever. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador is the exterior only, so the interior side is a separate item. The Amador is offered in a SmartKey version and in a SmartKey version with the SC1 keyway, while the 4817 Ares ships with the Schlage C keyway or, by adding W to the product code, the Weiser WR5 keyway for keying into an existing Weiser system.
20) I need a handleset that comes with the interior knob already matched - what are the options next to the Emtek 4817 Ares?
The Emtek 4817 Ares takes any Emtek brass knob or lever as the inside trim, chosen at order time, and handing must be specified if a lever is used inside. If a preset exterior and interior pairing is easier to order, the Baldwin Wesley handleset is offered with the Alcott knob as 180WYHXATK and with the Carnaby knob as 180WYHXCYK, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest is offered with the Hudson knob, all entrance or single cylinder function.
21) What do I use if the code requires an interconnected lock instead of a single cylinder handleset?
The Emtek 4817 Ares is an entry function single cylinder handleset, and handing must be specified when an interconnect device is called for. For an opening that needs a factory interconnected lock, the Schlage Residential JI18/19 pairs a passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and a Torino lever in satin stainless steel, at Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
22) What finishes does the Emtek Ares 4817 handleset come in?
Seven finishes across the brass Ares handleset: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and Satin Brass (US4). Every one of those is available with either the standard Schlage keyway or the Weiser WR5 cylinder. There is also a split finish option if you want the exterior and interior trim in different finishes, which is useful when the outside has to match other exterior hardware and the inside has to match what is already in the house.
23) Will unlacquered brass on the Emtek Ares handleset change colour over time?
Yes, and that is the point of it. Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) is the raw brass finish with no clear coat, so it darkens and patinas with handling and weather. If you want brass that holds its look, Satin Brass (US4) is the finished option, and Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Flat Black (US19) and Polished Chrome (US26) round out the range. The handleset body is solid brass regardless of which finish you pick.
