Emtek 7560 Rectangular 5-1/2" Keyed Sideplate Lockset, Passage/Single Keyed - Sandcast Bronze Tubular

It is a residential product. The 7560 is a sandcast bronze tubular lockset built for houses, and it is the right call on a front door, a back door, or a rustic-style home entry. For a commercial opening, a tenant entry in a multi-family building, or anything on a rated door, use a Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical or mortise lock instead. The sideplate look is decorative hardware, not traffic-rated door hardware.

It ships as a complete set: the knob or lever you pick, the sideplate, the latch, and the strike plate. You do not order the latch or strike separately. What you do have to decide is the inside trim style, the handing, the backset, the keyway, and the latch type. The one thing not in the box is a deadbolt, so if the opening needs one, order it as a separate lock or add the Emtek 443 interconnect device to tie the two together.

Handing is required, and it is one of the selections on the order. Emtek calls for handing on leversets because the lever has to point down toward the latch side. Stand outside the door, on the side you would key it from: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, hinges on your right is right hand. Knob styles are symmetrical, but the 7560 still asks for a hand because the sideplate and latch are set up per side.

The 7560 is offered in two keyways: Schlage, which is the standard, and Weiser WR5. Weiser WR5 is the keyway Kwikset-family cylinders use, so pick that one if the rest of the house runs on Kwikset or Weiser keys. Keying is a free option at order: keyed different, keyed alike across multiple locks, or keyed to a specific code you supply. It is a single cylinder entry function, so key outside, thumbturn or lever inside.

The Emtek 7560 is a single cylinder keyed entry sideplate lockset in sandcast bronze, keyed from the outside with a thumbturn or free inside trim. The nearest peer in solid brass is the Omnia D12036A, a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset with solid brass construction. Both are keyed on one side only, so either will work on an entry door where the inside must always be openable without a key. The difference a buyer feels is material and trim: the 7560 is sandcast bronze and is ordered with an Emtek knob or lever style for the inside trim, while the D12036A is solid brass.

The Emtek 7560 is a single cylinder lockset, so it takes a key on the outside only. For a glass panel door or a sidelite opening where the inside also has to be key operated, use the Omnia D12036AC instead - it is a double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass with a sideplate design. Confirm your local egress code before specifying double cylinder on a dwelling entry.

Latch choice is standard latch or the 28 degree rotation latch, and it is about how far the lever or knob travels to retract the bolt. The 28 degree latch pulls the bolt back on a much shorter turn, which matters when the lever is heavy sandcast bronze and you want a lighter, shorter action on a door used constantly. Either latch is available in all three finishes and both keyways. If you have no preference, the standard latch is the default.

Yes, the inside trim is an open choice across the sandcast bronze range. Ten lever styles (Aurora, Bryce, Cimarron, Cody, Durango, Lariat, Mariposa, Montrose, Teton, Yuma) and fifteen knob styles (Butte, Egg, Round, Winchester, Bristol, Hampton, Lowell, Windsor, Astoria, Diamond, Georgetown, Modern Disc, Modern Square, Old Town, Providence). Because the sideplate and latch are common across the set, you can run the same knob or lever on passage and privacy doors elsewhere in the house and keep the whole floor consistent.

A sideplate lockset mounts the knob or lever on a long decorative plate against the door face instead of a small round rose. The 7560 uses a 5-1/2 inch rectangular plate. Mechanically it is still a tubular lock in a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore, so it installs like an ordinary bored lockset, but the plate covers more of the door face and reads as period or rustic hardware. If the door has an existing rose-mount lock with wear marks or an oversized old bore, the sideplate hides more of it.

The 7560 is an entry lockset, keyed through the knob or lever, with a matching sideplate. If what you want is a deadbolt built into the plate alongside the lever, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, and the D12036AC is the double cylinder version, keyed both sides for a door with glass beside it. The Omnia D12036PD is the double dummy of the same design for an inactive leaf or a closet door that needs to match. Note that the Omnia line is brass rather than sandcast bronze, so it will not match the 7560 finishes.

The 7560 keyed entry set locks on its own, but on an exterior door most people add a deadbolt above it. The Emtek 443 interconnect device is offered with the 7560 for exactly that: it links the deadbolt to the lever so one motion retracts both on the way out. Without the interconnect you can still run a separate deadbolt, you just operate them independently. Key both to the same code with the free keying option so one key runs the door.

Both are available on the latch. Match it to what is already routed in the door edge: an older door with a chiseled square pocket takes the square corner faceplate, while a factory-bored door with a rounded router pocket takes the round corner. Picking the wrong one means recutting the mortise. This is a latch faceplate choice, separate from the standard versus 28 degree rotation latch decision.

On a fixed panel, an inactive leaf of a pair, or a closet door that never latches, a keyed lockset is more hardware than the opening needs. The Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates at 5-1/2 inch center to center, so it carries the same sideplate proportion on a surface-mounted, non-operating basis. The Emtek 7560 is the keyed entry version at the same 5-1/2 inch sideplate size, so pairing the two lets an active and an inactive leaf read alike. Note the two are different brands and finishes will not match exactly.

Treat them as alternatives, not as interchangeable parts. The Emtek 7560 is a tubular lockset in bronze, ordered with a Schlage or Weiser WR5 keyway, a chosen backset, and handing specified for the lever. The Omnia D12036A, D12036AC, and D12036PD are solid brass lever locksets built around a deadbolt rather than the 7560's tubular latch. If you are adding to doors that already carry Emtek sandcast bronze trim, staying with the 7560 keeps the keyway, the inside trim styles, and the finish family consistent across the openings; if the door is being started fresh, either family can be specified.

Three: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB), and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). These are living finishes on solid sandcast bronze, so they shift with handling over time rather than staying uniform like a plated finish. All three are available with either keyway and either latch, which means the finish choice never limits how you key it.
