Emtek 7612-FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek 7612 privacy sideplate lockset fit a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door?
Yes. The 7612 uses one standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore, so it drops into a door already prepped for a normal tubular lockset. Door thickness range is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, which covers both standard 1-3/4 inch doors and older 1-3/8 inch interior doors. Backset is adjustable, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches. What it does need beyond the bore is the long sideplate mortise: the plate measures 8-7/8 inches, so the edge and face prep for the plate itself has to be routed if the door was previously carrying a round rose set.
2) Is the Emtek 7612 a keyed lock or just a bathroom privacy set?
Privacy only. The 7612 is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath function, so it locks from inside with a turn and has no cylinder and no key. It is the right part for a bedroom or bathroom door and the wrong part for an entry or any door you need to key alike with the rest of the house.
3) Is the Emtek 7612 sideplate lockset rated for a commercial building or apartment corridor?
It is a residential product. The 7612 is a tubular bronze privacy set built for houses and residential interiors, not for the cycle counts of a commercial corridor or a high-traffic institutional opening. A property manager doing bedroom and bathroom doors in single-family or low-rise units is in the right place; a facility standardizing on commercial-grade cylindrical locks is not.
4) The Emtek 7612 sideplate lockset is privacy only - what sideplate lockset should I use on an entry door that needs to lock with a key?
The Emtek 7612 is a non-keyed privacy lockset for bed and bath doors, so it will not accept a key. For an entry opening on a sideplate, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, which puts a keyed deadbolt and a lever on one plate. Order the D12036A where the door needs to be secured from outside with a key, and keep the 7612 on interior doors where a thumbturn privacy function is all the opening calls for.
5) I need a keyed sideplate lockset on a door with glass next to the deadbolt - which one keys from both sides?
The Omnia D12036AC is a double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset with a sideplate design in solid brass, so it takes a key on both the outside and the inside rather than a thumbturn. That is the configuration specified where glass beside or within the door would let someone reach the inside of the lock. The Emtek 7612 is a privacy function and is not keyed on either side, so it is not the part for that opening. Confirm your local code on double cylinder locks before ordering, since some jurisdictions restrict them on egress doors.
6) What comes in the box with the Emtek 7612 sideplate lockset?
It ships as a complete set: the knob or lever you selected, the latch, and the strike plate. The latch faceplate is available in round or square corner, so it can be matched to an existing mortise in the door edge. Nothing further is needed to hang the lock beyond the door prep itself.
7) Can I match the Emtek 7612 privacy set to entry doors in the same bronze finish?
The 7612 is part of the Sandcast Bronze collection and comes in three finishes: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB), and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). It accepts any Sandcast Bronze knob or lever style, twenty-five in all, from the Durango and Teton levers to the Egg, Winchester and Modern Square knobs. That is what lets a rustic-themed house run one lever design and one bronze finish across bedrooms and baths and keep it consistent with the keyed openings.
8) Should I use a sideplate lockset or a standard rosette set on my door?
A sideplate set like the 7612 puts the knob or lever on a long 8-7/8 inch rectangular backplate rather than a small round rose. It covers more of the door face, which hides an old or oversized prep, and it gives a heavier look on plank and rustic doors. A rosette set is the simpler swap if the door only has the 2-1/8 inch bore and you do not want to rout for the plate. Note the 7612 is bored and tubular, so the plate is decorative trim, not a mortise lock body.
9) What is the right sideplate lockset for a closet or pantry door that does not need to latch at all?
For a door with no latching hardware, the Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates, on 5-1/2 inch center to center. A dummy is surface mounted trim that pulls the door - it has no latchbolt and no locking action. The Emtek 7612 is a tubular privacy lockset that operates a latch through a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, so it needs a bored door and an active latch to function. Match the dummy where you only want the look and the pull.
10) The Omnia D12036 sideplate locksets look like the same part as the Emtek 7612 - what actually differs?
They are different functions on a similar-looking plate. The Emtek 7612 is a privacy bed and bath lockset in Sandcast Bronze, non-keyed, on an 8-7/8 inch rectangular sideplate, sold as a complete set with knob or lever, latch and strike plate. The Omnia D12036 family is built around a deadbolt: D12036A is single cylinder, D12036AC is double cylinder, and D12036PD is a double dummy. Choosing between them is a function decision, not a trim decision - a privacy set gives you a thumbturn for a bathroom or bedroom, and the D12036A or D12036AC give you a keyed deadbolt for an opening that has to be secured.
