Emtek 8466-US10B – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek 8466 deadbolt fit my door thickness?
The 8466 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Standard build is set up for a 1-3/4 inch door, and an extension collar ships with it for thin doors. If your door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches, call it out on the order so the correct parts come with it.
2) Does the Emtek 8466 deadbolt drop into an existing standard deadbolt bore?
It uses standard door prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore, and either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. Those are the two common residential backsets, so a door already bored for a tubular deadbolt takes the 8466 without redrilling as long as you order the backset that matches the existing hole.
3) Can the Emtek 8466 be keyed alike with my existing Schlage keys?
Standard cylinder is Schlage C keyway, so it keys into an existing Schlage C system. If your building runs Weiser, order the W-prefix version (W8466 plus the finish code) for the Weiser WR5 keyway, which can be keyed into an existing Weiser system at no cylinder upcharge. Keyed alike, keyed different, and keying to a specific code are all selectable when you order.
4) Is the Emtek 8466 deadbolt right for a commercial opening or an apartment entry?
The 8466 is a residential deadbolt in Emtek's Brass #8 series, solid brass trim in an American Classic style. For a commercial door or a high-traffic multi-family entry where a graded lock is specified, look at a graded commercial deadbolt instead, such as the Accentra D111 (Grade 1, cylinder x thumbturn, 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors) or the Arrow DBX61 (Grade 2, cylinder x thumbturn).
5) I need a double cylinder deadbolt, keyed both sides. Does the Emtek 8466 do that?
No. The 8466 is single cylinder, key outside and thumbturn inside, so it will not work where you need a key on both faces, such as a door with glass beside the lock. For a keyed-both-sides deadbolt, the Baldwin Reserve Double Cylinder Contemporary Round deadbolt or the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder (Grade 2, 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors) covers that function.
6) What is the closest commercial-grade equivalent to an Emtek 8466 single cylinder deadbolt that also takes a Schlage C keyway?
The Emtek 8466 is a single cylinder tubular deadbolt, cylinder outside and thumbturn inside, built with a Schlage C keyway. If the opening needs a commercial-duty bolt on the same keyway, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and carrying a fire rating, and the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thickness range. Both keep the same cylinder x thumbturn operation and the same keyway family, so an existing Schlage C key system carries over. The Emtek 8466 is solid brass through the cylinder, housing, collar, thumbturn and rosette and is a residential product; the Hager bolts are graded commercial hardware.
7) I need a Grade 1 deadbolt for a heavy traffic entry - what do I use instead of the Emtek 8466?
The Emtek 8466 is a residential brass tubular deadbolt. For an opening that has to meet a Grade 1 spec, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt, cylinder x thumbturn, with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range; the Dexter DB1000-SCT is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors; and the Delaney LM Series 301702 is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome (US26D) for a facility running its own core system. All three keep the cylinder x thumbturn function the 8466 uses, so the key-outside, turn-inside behavior does not change for the occupant.
8) The 8466 has a thumbturn inside but the door has glass beside it - what deadbolt should I use?
The Emtek 8466 is a single cylinder deadbolt, keyed outside with a thumbturn inside, which is what a glass-adjacent opening usually rules out. For key-both-sides operation, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway on 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so a Schlage C system carries straight across from the 8466. The Dexter DB2000-DCT is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range, and the Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors. Confirm your local code allows a double cylinder on an egress door before you specify one.
9) The 8466 needs a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset chosen at order - is there a deadbolt with an adjustable backset instead?
The Emtek 8466 ships with a standard latch for a 2-3/8 inch backset and a 2-3/4 inch backset is specified at order, so the backset is fixed once it leaves. If you are working doors with mixed or unknown bore centers, the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an adjustable backset over 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty deadbolt with an adjustable backset, and the Brinks Raleigh E2401 and Mendocino E2402 both use a 4-way adjustable backset. All four are cylinder x thumbturn like the 8466.
10) I have a door thicker than 2 inches - the 8466 does not cover it, what deadbolt does?
The Emtek 8466 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors with a standard 1-3/4 inch prep, and the EMPowered version reaches 2-1/4 inch. For a thick door on standard mechanical hardware, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. If the door is exactly 1-3/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin DL3211 Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock and the Design Hardware D1 Series Grade 1 extra heavy duty deadbolt both sit at that thickness. Note the DL3011 and DL3211 are cylinder x blank, not cylinder x thumbturn, so there is no inside turn the way the 8466 has.
11) My building keys everything to a small format interchangeable core - what deadbolt do I use in place of the Emtek 8466?
The Emtek 8466 ships with a fixed cylinder in a Schlage C keyway, with a Weiser WR5 cylinder available by adding a W to the front of the product code. A facility running interchangeable cores needs a bolt prepped for the core instead: the Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep, less core, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors; the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt prepped for an interchangeable core, less cylinder, with a 2-3/4 inch backset; and the Delaney LM Series 301702 is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt. All three keep the outside key, inside turn arrangement of the 8466.
12) I need a fire rated deadbolt for a corridor or stairwell door - can I use the Emtek 8466?
The Emtek 8466 is a residential brass deadbolt. For an opening where the bolt has to carry a fire rating, the Hager 3115 Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt, the Hager 3215 Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with 1 inch throw, and the Hager 3118 Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a 6-pin cylinder are all fire rated and all use a Schlage C keyway on 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Cal-Royal CRB800 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch. Because the Hager bolts share the Schlage C keyway the 8466 uses, a facility keyed on Schlage C can specify them without changing key systems.
13) Do I have to specify handing for the Emtek 8466 deadbolt?
No handing required. It is a single cylinder deadbolt, key outside and thumbturn inside, so it installs the same on a left or right hand door. The two things you do have to specify are backset (2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch) and door thickness if it is over 1-3/4 inches.
14) What comes in the box with an Emtek 8466 deadbolt, and do I need a separate strike?
Every 8466 ships with a brass trim strike plus a heavy gauge steel understrike behind it, so no separate strike purchase. The cylinder, housing, collar, thumbturn, and rosette are solid brass and the bolt is hardened steel. You will still need to order the backset that matches the door.
15) What is the closest match to the Emtek 8466 if I want the same Schlage C keying but a graded commercial lock?
The Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt on the same Schlage C keyway, fitting 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so it keys into the same system while giving you a commercial-duty body. The tradeoff is the trim: the 8466 is solid brass decorative trim in ten finishes, the commercial units are plain.
16) Can I match the Emtek 8466 across a run of doors in a building?
Yes, and it is straightforward. All ten finishes are available in both keyways, keyed alike is a free option at order time, and you can key to an existing code. So a property manager can put the same finish and one key across every unit door, mixing 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets door by door as the existing prep requires.
17) Is the Emtek 8466 the same thing as a Deltana CL200LM or a Cal-Royal CB160?
They all lock a door the same way but they are not the same part. The Emtek 8466 is a residential tubular deadbolt with a solid brass cylinder, housing, collar, thumbturn and rosette, a Schlage C keyway, and a hardened steel bolt. The Deltana CL200LM is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt, cylinder x thumbturn; the Deltana CL200LA is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt built for a 2-3/4 inch backset; and the Cal-Royal CB160 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a tamper-resistant cylinder guard. Where the 8466 differs is finish and material: it is offered in ten brass finishes including Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) and Satin Nickel (US15), and either a Schlage C or a Weiser WR5 cylinder.
18) What deadbolt matches the Emtek 8466 in style if I want a square or contemporary trim instead of round?
The Emtek 8466 is an American Classic style brass deadbolt with a round rosette. For a contemporary or square-trim look on the same cylinder x thumbturn function, 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 910005 is a Grade 2 rectangle single cylinder deadbolt. The Brinks Mendocino E2402 is a contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset, and the Brinks Raleigh E2401 is the transitional round version of the same. Callan Model 200S is a Grade 3 single cylinder square trim deadbolt and Model 200S-G2 is the Grade 2 round trim version.
19) I want to stop issuing keys on this door - what replaces an Emtek 8466 with a code or credential lock?
The Emtek 8466 is a keyed mechanical deadbolt and is not electronic. To move a door off keys, the Codelocks CL200 is a surface deadbolt with key override on the CL200 Series, the Codelocks CL2200 is an electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel, and the Codelocks CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt. For credential-based multifamily or hospitality work, the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override, and the Dormakaba Nova-D is an RFID multihousing smart electronic deadbolt. The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote. These change the door prep and the credential program, so they are a swap of approach, not a drop-in for the 8466 brass trim.
20) What is the closest match to the Emtek 8466 if I want a decorative brass deadbolt from another premium line?
The Emtek 8466 is a solid brass American Classic deadbolt offered in finishes including Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Brass (US4), French Antique (US7) and Pewter (US15A). In the same decorative tier, Baldwin Estate 8011 is a contemporary 1-5/8 inch double cylinder deadbolt in the Estate Series, and Baldwin Reserve offers the DC.CRD contemporary round and DC.CSD contemporary square double cylinder deadbolts. The difference that decides it is function: those three Baldwin bolts are double cylinder, keyed both sides, while the 8466 is keyed outside with a thumbturn inside.
21) Is there a simpler deadbolt than the Emtek 8466 for a rental unit or interior door I am standardizing across a building?
The Emtek 8466 is a solid brass deadbolt in ten finishes with free keyed alike or keyed different service and a Schlage C or Weiser WR5 cylinder. If the door does not need the brass trim, the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with adjustable backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal LSD is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn over the same range, which is worth a look where residents need an easier turn. The Callan 200S is a Grade 3 single cylinder square trim deadbolt and the Dexter DB2000-SCT is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. All keep the cylinder x thumbturn function.
22) The opening needs a classroom function deadbolt, not a plain single cylinder - what do I order instead of the Emtek 8466?
The Emtek 8466 is a straight single cylinder deadbolt, key outside and thumbturn inside. For a classroom function, the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with adjustable backset, the Falcon D211 is the Grade 2 medium duty classroom function version with single cylinder operation, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Hager 3118 shares the Schlage C keyway the 8466 uses, so it keys into the same system.
23) I want the deadbolt and the entry lockset to work together - is there an alternative to adding an Emtek 8466 above a knob?
The Emtek 8466 is a standalone tubular deadbolt installed in its own 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, separate from whatever lockset sits below it. If you would rather run one assembly, the Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt built in, so the knob and bolt are one unit on one prep. Choose based on the door prep you already have: an existing pair of bores suits the 8466, while a new door or a full replacement can take the interconnected unit.
24) What deadbolt should I use where the door is metal frame or needs a mortise case rather than a tubular bore?
The Emtek 8466 is a tubular deadbolt requiring a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore in the door. Where a mortise case is the right prep, the Dormakaba D900 is a small case mortise deadbolt with a D cylinder, keyed different, in Schlage C keyways, so it holds the same keyway family as the 8466. The Dormakaba M1960 is an M1000 Series single cylinder deadbolt, cylinder by turn, with no trim, and the Kaba Ilco 4500 Series is a heavy duty professional deadbolt. For an electrically controlled bolt, the DynaLock 1300 Series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt.
25) What finishes does the Emtek 8466 deadbolt come in?
Ten finishes, and all ten are offered in both the Schlage and Weiser keyway: 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). Unlacquered brass will patina over time; the lifetime polished brass will not.
