Emtek 8355-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek 8355 deadbolt fit a 1-3/4 inch exterior door?
Yes. The 8355 Low Profile deadbolt is built around a standard 1-3/4 inch door and covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch thickness. Standard door prep applies: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore. If your door falls outside 1-3/4, note the actual thickness on the order using the Door Thickness field so the correct spindle and collar go in the box.
2) What backset do I need to order for an Emtek 8355 deadbolt?
Backset is a required selection: 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. The 8355 ships 2-3/8 inch as standard, so if the existing bore on your door is set back 2-3/4 inch from the edge you have to call that out. Measure from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch cross bore before ordering; picking the wrong one means the bolt will not line up with the hole.
3) Is a double cylinder deadbolt the right choice, or should I get a single cylinder with a thumbturn?
The 8355 in double cylinder takes a key on both sides, with no thumbturn inside. That is what people use on doors with glass beside or in them, where someone could reach through and turn an inside thumbturn. The tradeoff is egress: nobody leaves without a key, and many jurisdictions restrict double cylinder on a required exit door in a dwelling. If that is a concern, the same 8355 body is offered in a single cylinder version with a solid brass thumbturn inside.
4) Can the Emtek 8355 be keyed alike with my existing Schlage keys?
The 8355 ships with a Schlage C keyway as standard, so it can be keyed into an existing Schlage C system. Keying is a required choice at order time, keyed different or keyed alike, and there is a keying-to-code field if you want it cut to a specific bitting. Being a double cylinder, it takes two cylinders, so both sides come on the same key.
5) I have Weiser locks in the house. Can I get the Emtek 8355 on a Weiser keyway?
Yes. The 8355 is offered with a Weiser WR5 cylinder as well as Schlage C, and there is no upcharge for the cylinder substitution. Order it by adding a W to the front of the product code. It can then be keyed into an existing Weiser system, so one key runs the whole house. Both keyway choices are offered across all ten finishes.
6) Will the Emtek 8355 drop into the holes left by the deadbolt I am replacing?
If the old lock was a standard tubular deadbolt, yes. The 8355 uses standard door prep: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face and a 1 inch edge bore, at either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. That is the same prep the vast majority of residential deadbolts use, so on a door already bored for one there is usually no new drilling. Measure the backset first and order to match. It will not retrofit a mortise lock case or a surface-mounted deadbolt.
7) What double cylinder deadbolt should be used instead of the Emtek 8355 on a commercial opening that requires an ANSI Grade 1 lock?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is specified as residential double cylinder hardware. Where a commercial spec calls out ANSI Grade 1 in a double cylinder function, the Design Hardware D1 Series Double Cylinder Deadbolt is Grade 1, extra heavy duty, for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter DB1000 Series Double Cylinder Deadbolt is Grade 1 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. For a Grade 2 commercial double cylinder, the Hager 3214 uses a Schlage C keyway like the 8355 and covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
8) What is the closest double cylinder deadbolt to the Emtek 8355 Low Profile if the door needs a residential-style brass finish match?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is a double cylinder, keyed-both-sides tubular deadbolt in solid brass, offered in Schlage C or Weiser WR5 keyways and finishes from Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B) through Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). The nearest decorative peers are the Baldwin Estates 8011 Contemporary 1-5/8 inch Double Cylinder Deadbolt and the Baldwin Reserve Double Cylinder Contemporary Round Deadbolt, both double cylinder trims in a residential decorative line. The difference is trim language: the 8355 is styled American Classic, while the Baldwin Reserve round and square versions are contemporary shapes.
9) Which deadbolt takes the place of the Emtek 8355 when the door only needs a thumbturn on the inside instead of a second key cylinder?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is keyed on both sides, which is chosen for doors with glass nearby. Where egress rules or the owner call for a thumbturn inside, cylinder-by-thumbturn peers include the Dexter DB1000 Series Single Cylinder Deadbolt, Grade 1, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, the Hager 3215 Grade 2 single cylinder with a 1 inch throw, and the Accentra D111 Grade 1 single cylinder with a 2-3/8 inch backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which matches the standard 2-3/8 inch backset the 8355 ships with.
10) Which deadbolts key into the same system as the Emtek 8355 without a cylinder swap?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is furnished with a Schlage C keyway as standard, or a Weiser WR5 keyway by adding a W to the product code, so it can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Among commercial peers, the Hager 3115 cylinder by thumbturn, the Hager 3214 double cylinder and the Hager 3118 classroom deadbolt with a 6-pin cylinder all use the Schlage C keyway, and the Dormakaba D900 Small Case Mortise Dead Bolts are furnished with SC keyways, so a Schlage C master key system can carry across the 8355 and those parts.
11) What should be ordered instead of the Emtek 8355 for a facility standardizing on small format interchangeable core?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is supplied with its own brass cylinder in a Schlage C or Weiser WR5 keyway, so it is keyed as a conventional cylinder. Where a facility pins its own cores, the Arrow E61 Grade 2 Single Cylinder Deadlock is SFIC prep less core for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single deadbolt with interchangeable core and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Delaney LM Series Grade 1 less core deadbolt comes in Dull Chrome (US26D).
12) What deadbolt should be specified in place of the Emtek 8355 on a fire rated opening?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is residential brass hardware. Where a fire rated opening drives the selection, the Cal-Royal CRB800 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch, and the Hager 3115 cylinder by thumbturn and Hager 3215 single cylinder both carry a fire rating and cover 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Each is cylinder by thumbturn, so an inside key cylinder is not carried over from the 8355.
13) What comes in the box with an Emtek 8355 deadbolt, and do I need to buy a strike separately?
A brass trim strike ships with every 8355 deadbolt, along with a heavy gauge steel understrike that goes behind it into the jamb. The bolt itself is hardened steel, and the cylinder, housing, collar, thumbturn and rosette are solid brass. Nothing else is required for a standard prepped door.
14) What finishes does the Emtek 8355 Low Profile deadbolt come in?
Ten finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Brass (US4) and French Antique (US7). Two to think about before you commit: Unlacquered Brass is left raw and will patina with handling, while Polished Brass Lifetime is coated to hold its color. All ten are offered on both the Schlage and Weiser keyway.
15) What is a comparable double cylinder deadbolt to the Emtek 8355 if I need a different look or a graded lock?
A few real alternatives, all double cylinder. For a contemporary decorative look, the Baldwin Reserve double cylinder is offered in round or square trim, and the Baldwin Estates 8011 is a 1-5/8 inch contemporary double cylinder. For a graded lock, the Delaney LU Series double cylinder is Grade 2 in stainless steel (US32D), and the Callan 210S is a Grade 3 double cylinder. The Deltana 7312KA2 is Grade 3 and covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, the same thickness span the 8355 handles. Where the 8355 differs from all of them is the solid brass construction and the ten-finish range.
16) I need a keyed deadbolt for a classroom or an office where staff carry keys but the door must still be lockable from outside only. Is the Emtek 8355 right?
Not the best fit. The 8355 is a residential brass deadbolt keyed on both sides. For an institutional opening, the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with adjustable backset, the Falcon D211 is the Grade 2 version, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt on a Schlage C keyway with a 6-pin cylinder for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Hager keeps you on the same Schlage C keyway the 8355 uses, if you are mixing residential and back-of-house doors on one key system.
17) Is a keypad or electronic deadbolt a drop-in replacement for the Emtek 8355?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is a mechanical, non-electronic deadbolt keyed on both sides and installed to standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. Electronic peers such as the Delaney KP400 Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with programmable remote, the Codelocks CL2200 surface-mounted electronic deadbolt and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D RFID electronic deadbolt trade the outside key cylinder for code or credential entry, and the surface-mounted Codelocks unit does not use the same bored prep at all.
18) Is the Baldwin Reserve 8BR0618001 deadbolt spacer an alternative to the Emtek 8355 deadbolt?
No. The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is a complete double cylinder tubular deadbolt with cylinder, housing, collar, hardened steel bolt, understrike and brass trim strike. The Baldwin Reserve 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer for the double cylinder function, and the BEST 8T T Series item is a tubular deadbolt tube component. Both are pieces that go into or behind a lock, not a lock that can be ordered on its own to secure a door.
19) What deadbolt works instead of the Emtek 8355 on a door thicker than 2 inches?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, with the EMPowered version reaching 2-1/4 inch. For thicker openings on a commercial door, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 Grade 1 Cylindrical Deadlock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. That peer is a cylinder by blank plate deadlock rather than keyed on both faces, so confirm which sides need key access before substituting.
20) Which deadbolt suits an exit door where the Emtek 8355 double cylinder would not, and what about a door with no second bore?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is keyed on both sides, which requires a key to retract the bolt from the inside. On an exit door meant to be thrown from inside only, the Arrow E60 Grade 2 Exit Deadlock is non-keyed, blank plate by thumbturn, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Where only one face can be bored, the Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt.
21) What deadbolt handles a backset the Emtek 8355 does not, or an unknown backset in an existing door?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is ordered with a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, specified at the time of order. Where the backset in the door is unconfirmed, adjustable-backset peers cover both from one box: the Brinks Raleigh Series transitional round single cylinder deadbolt and the Brinks Mendocino Series contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt each use a 4-way adjustable backset, and the Cal-Royal ED500 Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt has an adjustable backset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. All three are cylinder by thumbturn rather than keyed both sides.
22) Which deadbolt matches the Emtek 8355 for a square or contemporary trim shape rather than a classic round rosette?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is an American Classic styled brass deadbolt with a solid brass rosette. For a square or contemporary face, the Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt, the Bravura 310RC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary round deadbolt, and the Bravura Rectangle Deadbolt is Grade 2 with a rectangular trim. All three are cylinder by thumbturn; for a contemporary square trim that stays double cylinder, the Baldwin Reserve Contemporary Square Deadbolt is a double cylinder function.
23) What is the difference between the Emtek 8355 and a classroom function deadbolt like the Falcon D111?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is double cylinder, so it takes a key on both faces of the door. The Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt, cylinder by thumbturn, with an adjustable backset, and the Falcon D211 is the Grade 2 medium duty classroom function with single cylinder operation. Classroom function peers keep an inside thumbturn for immediate release, which the 8355 does not have.
24) Is there a single lock that replaces both the Emtek 8355 deadbolt and a separate knob or lever on an entry door?
The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is a deadbolt on its own, installed to a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, and a latch set is a separate bore in the door. Where one assembly is preferred, the Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt, combining the deadbolt and the latch trim in one unit. That peer is single cylinder, so it does not carry the key-both-sides operation of the 8355.
25) Is the Arrow 460 mortise lock strike a substitute for the Emtek 8355 deadbolt?
No. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike with a straight lip serving latchbolt and deadbolt functions, and it mounts in the frame. The Emtek 8355 Low Profile is the deadbolt itself, and a brass trim strike ships with every one, so a separate frame strike is not what completes it. Also distinct are the International Door Closers DH-1821 hook bolt deadlock and DL-4511 deadlatch lock, which are mortised lock cases rather than a bored tubular deadbolt.
