Emtek 4911-US15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek 4911 Imperial handleset fit my door prep, or do I need to drill new holes?
The 4911 Imperial uses the standard residential prep: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 5-1/2 inch center-to-center between the deadbolt bore and the knob bore. If your door is already bored for a common single-cylinder handleset on that 5-1/2 inch spacing, it drops in. Backset is your choice of 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, so measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before you order. Door thickness range is 1-3/8 to 2 inches.
2) Do I have to specify handing on an Emtek Imperial entrance handleset?
Handing is required on the 4911, left or right. It matters if you put a lever on the inside, or if you add the interconnect device. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it's right hand, hinges on the left is left hand. Get it wrong with a lever and the lever points the wrong way.
3) What comes in the box with the Emtek 4911 handleset, and what else do I need to buy?
It ships as a complete set: exterior handleset with cylinder, latch, and strike plate. The one thing you must choose separately is the interior trim, since the inside knob or lever is a required selection rather than a fixed part. Any Emtek brass knob or lever can be paired with it, from Athena and Hermes levers to the Ace knob or a crystal knob like Windsor. Nothing else is needed for a standard bored door.
4) Will an Emtek 4911 handleset work on a 2 inch thick door?
Yes, up to 2 inches. The 4911 covers 1-3/8 through 2 inch doors, so a standard 1-3/4 inch exterior door is well inside the range, and so is a thicker custom or solid slab up to 2 inches. There is a door thickness field on the order so you can state your actual slab. If your door is thicker than 2 inches, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial single cylinder handleset covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches.
5) I'm replacing an old handleset on a 2-3/4 inch backset door. Will the Emtek 4911 latch reach?
Order the 2-3/4 inch backset and it will. The standard latch shipped with the 4911 is 2-3/8 inch backset, so 2-3/4 has to be specified on the order; it's a selectable option, not a special order. Measure from the face of the door edge to the center of the bore. 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 are the two backsets used on residential bored doors, and thicker or wider stile doors commonly take the 2-3/4.
6) Which handlesets look like the Emtek 4911 but will not lock the door?
Two Weslock sets share the handleset look without any locking function. The Weslock 6695 Belmont Dummy Handleset with Impresa Knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest Dummy Handleset with New Heaven Lever are both dummy function, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona Style Handleset with Seville Lever is non-keyed as well. The Emtek 4911 Imperial is a keyed single cylinder entrance handleset, so it is not interchangeable with any of them on an exterior door that has to lock.
7) My door is 2-1/4 inches thick. What entry handleset works there instead of the Emtek 4911?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, so a 2-1/4 inch door is past its range. The Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial Handleset with Eleganti Knob is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset rated 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. If the opening can take an electronic deadbolt, the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock standalone touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset also covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
8) I want a double cylinder entry handleset with a key on both sides rather than a thumbturn. What should I look at?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial is a single cylinder entrance handleset, keyed outside with a turn inside. For key-both-sides, the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont Double Cylinder Entry Mortise Trim is an entrance-function double cylinder set for 1-3/4 inch doors. Note it is mortise trim rather than a tubular lock, so the door prep differs from the 4911's 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 5-1/2 inch center-to-center.
9) Can I order several Emtek Imperial handlesets keyed alike for a house with multiple exterior doors?
Yes, keyed alike is a free option on the 4911, so a front, side, and back door can all run one key. If you already have a keying system in the building, use the keying-to-code field and give the code so the new sets cut to match rather than to a fresh bitting. Standard cylinder is Schlage C; if the existing system is Weiser, order the WR5 keyway version and it keys straight into it.
10) What is the difference between a single cylinder and double cylinder entry handleset?
Single cylinder, which is what the 4911 Imperial is, means key outside and a thumbturn inside. You can always get out without a key, which is what most residential codes want on an exit door. A double cylinder needs a key on both sides and is chosen when there is glass beside the door that someone could break to reach the turn. If you want the key-both-sides version, look at a double cylinder entry set such as the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont double cylinder entry mortise trim.
11) How do I get the handleset and the interior lever to operate together with one motion?
Add the Emtek 443 interconnect device. That links the latch and the deadbolt so a single turn of the inside lever retracts both, which is what people want on a rental or a fire-exit path. Two conditions: the interconnect is not available on double cylinder or on the EMPowered upgrade, and specifying it makes handing mandatory on the order.
12) What finishes does the Emtek Imperial brass handleset come in, and can I match the inside trim to a different finish?
Seven finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and French Antique (US7). All seven are available with either the Schlage or the Weiser keyway. There is also a split finish field, so you can run one finish outside and a different one on the interior trim if the inside of the house doesn't match the exterior.
13) Is the Emtek 4911 handleset rated for a commercial building or apartment entry doors?
The 4911 Imperial is a residential product. Solid brass, entry function, built for a house or a unit door rather than for commercial traffic. If you are specifying for a commercial opening or need a graded product for a bid, look at a Grade 2 handleset such as the Schlage Residential F60 Addison keyed entry with Accent lever or the Master Lock HDLB Series Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset.
14) What is the difference between the Emtek Imperial handleset and a Kwikset or Schlage residential handleset?
The Imperial 4911 is solid brass with a choice of Schlage C or Weiser keyway, seven finishes, and any Emtek brass knob or lever on the inside, plus a 1-3/8 to 2 inch door thickness range. The mass-market sets are narrower in scope: the Kwikset 687 Amador single cylinder handleset is sold exterior-only with SmartKey and is Grade 3 at 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and the Schlage F60 Addison with Accent lever is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. If you want an electronic deadbolt instead of a key cylinder, the Yale Assure Lock touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset is that route.
15) Can I use a Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont trim in place of an Emtek 4911 Imperial handleset?
They are not a drop-in swap. The Emtek 4911 Imperial is a tubular handleset with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 5-1/2 inch center-to-center prep, and a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset latch. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont Single Cylinder Entry Mortise Trim is mortise trim for 1-3/4 inch doors, which means a mortise pocket in the door edge rather than a bored prep. Baldwin's Wesley handleset paired with an Alcott or Carnaby knob is an entrance-function handleset if you want a Baldwin set closer in form to the 4911.
16) What is a simpler brass entry handleset than the Emtek 4911 Imperial if I do not need a keyway or finish choice?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial is a solid brass tubular entrance handleset ordered with a Schlage C or Weiser WR5 keyway, a handing, a backset, and a choice of inside knob or lever. If you want a solid brass entry handleset without that configuration, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover, 815871 St. Ann, and 825871 Kingston, all entry function solid brass handlesets. The Deltana 810871 Montego covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, matching the 4911's thickness range.
17) I need a keypad or smart lock on the entry door instead of a keyed handleset. What replaces the Emtek 4911?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial is a mechanical, non-electronic single cylinder handleset. For a powered opening, the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset pairs a Halifax lever interior trim with a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with a Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Yale BYRD256 CBARX is key-free with a passage handleset, so there is no cylinder to key at all.
18) Does the Emtek 4911 Imperial carry an ANSI grade, and which comparable handlesets do?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial is a residential brass handleset. If a facility spec calls for a graded set, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison and the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset are both Grade 2, and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview handlesets are Grade 3.
19) I already key my building to Schlage C. Which entry handlesets can I key into that system?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial ships with a Schlage C keyway as standard and can be ordered with a Weiser WR5 cylinder instead by adding W to the product code, at no upcharge, so it can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Among the alternatives, the Kwikset 687AMD SMC Amador single cylinder handleset uses an SC1 keyway with SmartKey, while the Kwikset 687AMD SMT and 687BW Belleview are SmartKey versions.
20) I need an interconnected lock so one motion retracts the latch and deadbolt. Is the Emtek 4911 an option?
Yes. The Emtek 4911 Imperial accepts the Emtek 443 Interconnect Device as an add-on, and handing must be specified when an interconnect is ordered. A different route is the Schlage Residential JI18/19 Interconnected Passage Lock with keyed deadbolt and Torino lever, a Grade 2 set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, though its lever trim is passage function rather than a handleset grip.
21) What entry handleset covers a 1-3/8 inch door if the Emtek 4911 Imperial is not the right style?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Other entry handlesets reaching 1-3/8 inch include the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington Single Cylinder Handleset in satin nickel, rated 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest Single Cylinder Handleset with Hudson Knob at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 810871 Montego at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
22) If I only need to replace the exterior handle and keep my existing interior trim, is the Emtek 4911 the right buy?
The Emtek 4911 Imperial is sold as a complete set including latch and strike plate, and it requires an inside knob or lever selection, so it is a whole-opening purchase. If you want exterior trim only, the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder handlesets are supplied as exterior only, Grade 3 entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors.
