Emtek 8444-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek 8444 STRETTO lockset fit a narrow stile door?
That's what the 8444 is built for. It uses a narrow 1-1/4 inch door prep with 3-3/8 inch center-to-center hole spacing, so it goes into stiles too slim for a standard 2-1/8 inch bore. The trim plate itself is 1-1/2 by 11 inches. If your door is already bored 2-1/8 inch for a conventional knobset, this narrow prep won't cover it.
2) Is the Emtek 8444 backset 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch?
Both. The 8444 latch is adjustable and you choose the backset at order time. Standard is 2-3/8 inch, which matches most residential prep; specify 2-3/4 inch if your door is bored at the deeper backset. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before you order.
3) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek 8444 STRETTO lockset?
Handing is required on this one, right hand or left hand. Emtek calls it out specifically for leversets, since a lever has to point the correct way, and the order form asks for it regardless of the trim you pick. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right, it's right hand.
4) What comes in the box with the Emtek 8444 entry set, and what do I still have to order?
It ships as a complete set with the latch and strike plate included, supplied with a 28 degree latch. What isn't decided for you is the inside trim: you pick a knob or lever style separately, and there are more than eighty to choose from across the Emtek brass range, from the Stuttgart and Athena levers to the Ace knob and crystal knobs. You also specify handing, backset, door thickness range, and keying.
5) Can I key several Emtek 8444 locksets alike so one key works the whole house?
Yes. Keying is a choice at order time, keyed different or keyed alike, and there's an optional key code field if you need the locks cut to an existing code you already carry. It's a single cylinder entry function, so the key works the outside and the inside is thumbturn or button operated trim.
6) Is a narrow trim lockset the right choice, or should I use a standard rosette knobset?
Narrow trim is the answer when the door stile is too slim for a round rosette, typically a glass panel door or a narrow-stile French or patio door. The 8444 uses a 1-1/4 inch bore and 3-3/8 inch hole spacing instead of the usual 2-1/8 inch bore. On a normal solid door with a full-width stile, a standard bored entry set is the simpler prep. Going narrow trim on a door already bored 2-1/8 inch means the plate won't hide the old hole.
7) Is the Emtek 8444 STRETTO rated for commercial use?
It's a residential lockset. The 8444 is solid brass tubular entry hardware in a contemporary rectangular STRETTO plate, sized for homes and light-use openings rather than high-traffic commercial doors. For an apartment building's unit doors it's a reasonable match; for a school corridor or an office entry taking hundreds of cycles a day, a commercial-grade cylindrical or mortise lock is the right specification.
8) What finishes does the Emtek 8444 come in, and will it match my other Emtek hardware?
Seven finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and Satin Brass (US4). Those are standard Emtek brass collection finishes, so the 8444 will run alongside other Emtek brass trim on the same job. Unlacquered brass is the one to think twice about on a fleet of doors, since it patinas over time rather than holding its as-shipped color.
9) Can I put a lever on the inside and still use the Emtek 8444 keyed narrow plate outside?
That's how it's ordered. The inside trim is selected separately from the full Emtek brass knob and lever range, so you can run a Stuttgart, Athena, or Luzern lever for an accessible pull, or a knob like the Ace or Round if you prefer. Pick a lever and handing becomes critical, because the lever has to fall toward the latch side.
10) Is the Emtek 8444 an electronic or smart lock?
No, the 8444 is purely mechanical. Key on the outside, no wiring, no batteries, no keypad. If the job calls for keyless access or a code, this isn't the part.
11) How much of the door does the Emtek 8444 STRETTO plate cover?
The trim plate measures 1-1/2 by 11 inches, with a stated height of 10 inches and width of 2 inches on the lock body dimensions and a 3/4 inch plate thickness. It's a flat rectangular contemporary profile, so it reads modern against a panelled or traditional door rather than blending in.
