Emtek 8455-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What backset does the Emtek 8455 deadbolt come with, and can I get 2-3/4 inch for a commercial door?
Both backsets are available on the 8455: 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch, and backset is a required selection when you order. The standard latch is the 2-3/8 inch; if your existing bore is set 2-3/4 inches back from the door edge, pick that instead. Measure from the door edge to the center of the cross bore before choosing.
2) Will the Emtek 8455 drop into my existing deadbolt holes, or do I have to re-bore the door?
Standard door prep. The 8455 uses a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore, which is the same prep almost every residential tubular deadbolt uses, so an existing deadbolt hole normally takes it directly. Match the backset (2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch) to what is already bored and you are drilling nothing but possibly the strike.
3) Is the Emtek 8455 deadbolt suitable for a commercial building entrance?
The 8455 is a residential product, solid brass trim in an American Classic style. For a commercial opening where a grade is specified on the drawing, look at a Grade 1 or Grade 2 commercial deadbolt instead: the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder with a 2-3/8 inch backset, the Cal-Royal CB160 is a Grade 2 single cylinder with a tamper-resistant cylinder guard, and the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder by thumbturn that also uses the Schlage C keyway, so it can sit on the same key system as the 8455.
4) My door is 2-1/4 inches thick. Will the Emtek 8455 work?
Not the mechanical 8455. It runs 1-3/8 to 2 inches. For a 2-1/4 inch door on the Emtek line, the EMPowered version covers thickness up to 2-1/4 inches. On the commercial side, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock is listed for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors.
5) Which deadbolt keys into an existing Schlage C master key system besides the Emtek 8455?
The Emtek 8455 ships with a Schlage C keyway as standard, so it drops into an existing Schlage C system. If you need the same keyway in a commercial bolt, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and a 6-pin cylinder. The 8455 is also built with a Weiser WR5 keyway when the building is keyed to Weiser.
6) What should I use instead of a single cylinder deadbolt on a door with glass beside it?
The Emtek 8455 is a single cylinder deadbolt, keyed outside with a thumbturn inside, which can be reached through adjacent glass. Double cylinder bolts require a key on both faces: the Baldwin Reserve Double Cylinder Contemporary Round Deadbolt and the Contemporary Square version, the Dexter DB1000-DCT Grade 1 double cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the Hager 3214 Grade 2 double cylinder with a Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Check your local egress code before specifying a double cylinder on a required exit.
7) What is a commercial-grade alternative to the Emtek 8455 low profile deadbolt for a rental unit entry door?
The Emtek 8455 is a residential single cylinder deadbolt in solid brass with a Schlage C keyway. For a graded commercial option in the same cylinder x thumbturn function, the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter DB1000-SCT is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors. Both carry ANSI grading a spec sheet can reference; the 8455 is a decorative brass residential bolt.
8) Is there a deadbolt that fits doors thicker than 2 inches if the Emtek 8455 does not?
The Emtek 8455 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. For heavier door leaves, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. It is a cylinder x blank deadlock rather than a cylinder x thumbturn, so the inside face is keyed or blank, not turned.
9) Which deadbolt takes a small format interchangeable core instead of a fixed Schlage C cylinder?
The Emtek 8455 uses a fixed brass cylinder in a Schlage C keyway. If your facility keys on SFIC, the Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock prepped for SFIC and shipped less core, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with an interchangeable core prep, less cylinder, on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Delaney LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome US26D.
10) Which deadbolt should I order if I do not know whether the door is bored 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset?
The Emtek 8455 is ordered to a specific backset, 2-3/8 inch standard or 2-3/4 inch if specified, so the existing bore has to be measured first. Deadbolts that adjust in the field include the Cal-Royal ED500, a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with adjustable backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon D111, a Grade 1 heavy duty deadbolt with adjustable backset, and the Brinks Raleigh E2401, a transitional round single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset.
11) What deadbolt meets a fire rating requirement that a residential brass deadbolt does not address?
The Emtek 8455 is a residential solid brass deadbolt. Where the opening carries a fire rating, the Cal-Royal CRB800 is a heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch, and the Hager 3215 and Hager 3115 are fire rated cylinder x thumbturn deadbolts for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
12) What single cylinder deadbolt carries a Grade 1 rating for a high traffic entry?
The Emtek 8455 is a residential brass single cylinder deadbolt. Grade 1 single cylinder options in the same cylinder x thumbturn function are the Accentra D111 with a 2-3/8 inch backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter DB1000-SCT for 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, the Deltana CL200LM, and the Falcon D111 heavy duty with adjustable backset.
13) Does the Emtek 8455 deadbolt need to be handed?
No handing to specify. The 8455 is a deadbolt with a key cylinder outside and a thumbturn inside, so it installs the same on a left or right hand door.
14) What comes in the box with an Emtek 8455 deadbolt, or do I need to buy a strike separately?
A brass trim strike ships with every 8455 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 extra is required to finish a standard install beyond the screws in the box.
15) What finishes does the Emtek 8455 deadbolt come in, and can I match the rest of my door hardware?
Ten finishes across the 8455: 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). Every one of those is offered in both the Schlage C and the Weiser WR5 keyway, so a building standardizing on one keyway is not limited on finish. Unlacquered brass will patina over time; the lifetime polished brass will not.
16) Can I order a set of Emtek 8455 deadbolts all on one key for a rental property?
Yes. Keyed alike or keyed different is a required choice on the 8455, and there is a free text field to key to a specific code if you are adding to a system that already exists. For a fleet of units, order keyed different per unit and keyed alike within a unit so front and back doors of the same apartment share a key. Both the Schlage C and Weiser WR5 cylinders can be keyed to an existing system.
17) Is the BEST 8T tubular deadbolt tube a replacement for an Emtek 8455?
No. The Emtek 8455 is a complete tubular deadbolt: cylinder, housing, collar, thumbturn, rosette, hardened steel bolt, understrike and brass trim strike. The BEST 8T is the T Series tubular deadbolt tube component only, the bolt mechanism without the outside and inside trim. Similarly, the Baldwin Reserve 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer and the Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike, both accessories rather than a working bolt.
18) Is there a keypad or electronic version of a single cylinder deadbolt like the Emtek 8455?
The Emtek 8455 is a mechanical deadbolt with no electronic operation. Credential-operated alternatives include the Delaney KP400, a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, the Codelocks CL2200 electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel, the Codelocks CL2210 electronic mortise deadbolt, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override. These do not use the 8455 mechanical door prep.
19) What is a simpler deadbolt than the Emtek 8455 for an interior or storage door that does not need a key?
The Emtek 8455 is keyed with a cylinder outside and a thumbturn inside. Where no key is wanted, the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 non-keyed exit deadlock with a blank plate outside and a thumbturn inside for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Callan 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt that only bores one face of the door.
20) What is the closest match to the Emtek 8455 if I want a decorative brass deadbolt in a contemporary trim shape?
The Emtek 8455 is an American Classic style solid brass deadbolt with a low profile rosette. For a contemporary trim shape in the same cylinder x thumbturn function, the Bravura 310RC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary round deadbolt, the Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt, and the Brinks Mendocino E2402 is a contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset. The Bravura 310B Elite is the traditional round trim in the same Elite family.
21) Which deadbolt has an easier thumbturn to grip for an accessible unit?
The Emtek 8455 uses a solid brass thumbturn on the inside face. Where hand strength is a concern, the Cal-Royal LSD is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, in the same cylinder x thumbturn function.
22) Is a mortise deadbolt an alternative to the Emtek 8455 tubular deadbolt?
The Emtek 8455 is a tubular deadbolt using standard door prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. Mortise bolts need a pocket cut into the door edge instead. The Dormakaba D900 is a small case mortise deadbolt with a D cylinder keyed different in Schlage keyways, and the International Door Closers DH-1821 is a hook bolt deadlock with a flat faceplate. Neither drops into the 8455 bore pattern.
23) What does the low profile part of the Emtek 8455 mean for how it looks on the door?
Low Profile is the trim shape, not the function. The 8455 uses a solid brass rosette and a compact housing rather than a tall decorative escutcheon, so it sits close to the face of the door and reads clean beside a separate knob or lever. Function is the same as any other Emtek single cylinder deadbolt: key outside, thumbturn inside.
