Emtek 7091 Rope 3-5/8" C-to-C Keyed Sideplate Lockset, Passage/Double Keyed - Brass Tubular

Yes. The Rope 7091 sideplate set uses one standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore, so it drops into a door already prepped for a normal tubular lockset. The latch backset adjusts between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, and it works on doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. The sideplate itself is 3-5/8 inches center to center, so check that your existing plate footprint or paint line covers that.

Double cylinder. The 7091 is a keyed entry function with a key cylinder on both faces rather than a thumbturn inside, which is what people specify for doors with glass beside or in them. Keep in mind a double keyed door needs a key to exit, so confirm it is acceptable for the opening before you order.

Handing is required, right hand or left hand, and it is mandatory on lever trim because a lever has to point toward the latch side. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right it is right hand. Getting this wrong on a leverset means a lever aiming the wrong way.

Yes. Keying is part of the order: choose keyed different or keyed alike, and there is a field for keying to an existing code, so a set of doors in one house can run on one key. If you are adding to doors already keyed to an Emtek code, supply that code with the order.

The Omnia D12036AC is a double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset with solid brass construction and a sideplate design, which puts it in the same family as the Emtek 7091 Rope keyed sideplate lockset. Both are solid brass and both are keyed on the inside as well as the outside - the Emtek 7091 carries a Double Cylinder keyed function. The difference is trim: the Emtek 7091 is ordered with a choice of brass knob or lever style for the inside trim, while the Omnia D12036AC is a lever lockset.

The Emtek 7091 Rope is a Double Cylinder keyed set, meaning it takes a key from both sides. If you want a thumbturn or single-key arrangement instead, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass. It is keyed on one side only, which is the usual choice where an interior key is not wanted on the egress side.

Treat the sideplate spacing as the deciding dimension, not the brand. The Emtek 7091 Rope is built on a 3-5/8 inch center-to-center sideplate with one standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore, an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, and a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The Omnia D12036PD dummy set, by comparison, is a 5-1/2 inch center to center plate, so its screw and bore layout does not line up with a 3-5/8 inch Emtek prep. If you are replacing an existing sideplate set, measure the existing center-to-center before ordering either.

It ships as a complete set: the exterior sideplate with knob or lever, the inside knob or lever trim you select, the latch, and the strike plate. You pick the inside knob or lever style separately, and the latch faceplate is available round corner or square corner to match the mortise in your door edge.

Any Emtek brass knob or lever style can be ordered with it, and the selectable inside trim list runs from traditional shapes (Rope Knob, Victoria, Egg, Providence, Lancaster) through crystal knobs (Bristol, Windsor, Georgetown) to modern bar and knurled trim (T-Bar Knurled, R-Bar Tribeca, Conical Straight Knurled, L-Square White Marble) and levers like Cortina, Milano, Athena and Stuttgart. The Rope sideplate is the traditional-style backplate they all mount to.

It is a residential product, solid brass tubular construction, catalogued for residential door hardware. For a commercial entrance with heavy daily traffic you want a graded commercial lockset instead. The 7091 suits house front doors, interior doors and light-duty settings.

The Emtek 7091 is a latching entry lockset, not a deadbolt. If you want the sideplate look with a deadbolt mechanism, the Omnia D12036AC is a double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass with a sideplate design, the D12036A is the single cylinder version with a thumbturn inside, and the D12036PD is the non-functioning double dummy at 5-1/2 inch center to center for inactive doors.

Yes, it covers 1-3/8 through 1-3/4 inches, which spans older interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch exterior doors. There is also a door thickness field on the order so you can state the actual measured thickness of your door.

The Emtek 7091 Rope is an entry lockset - it ships with latch and strike plate and bores a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore. For a door that does not latch at all, such as a fixed panel or one half of a pair, the Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates on a 5-1/2 inch center to center. Being a double dummy, it is surface applied trim with no latch, so it is not interchangeable with the Emtek 7091 in a prepped entry door.

The Emtek 7091 Rope is designated residential, tubular lock type, in brass with a traditional style. If you need heavy commercial duty, a residential tubular sideplate set is not the category to shop; the brass alternatives in the same decorative family include the Omnia D12036A single cylinder and D12036AC double cylinder solid brass lever locksets, which are likewise decorative brass sideplate style products rather than commercial cylindrical locks.

Five: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and French Antique (US7). Unlacquered brass is left bare and will patina over time, while the lifetime polished brass is coated to hold its shine.
