Emtek 8560 Octagon Single Sided Deadbolt - Lost Wax Cast Bronze

No. The 8560 Octagon is a single sided deadbolt, operated by the thumbturn from the inside only, and it ships with no cylinder and no outside collar. The exterior face of the door stays blank. If you need to lock or unlock from outside with a key, this is the wrong part.

It uses the standard tubular deadbolt prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore, and a backset of either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches. If your door is already bored for a common residential deadbolt, it matches. Backset is a required choice when ordering, so measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before you pick.

It's built for interior installation and interior appearance, and it's classed as residential hardware. Because there is no outside cylinder, nobody can unlock it from outside the door, which makes it a poor choice for a main entry. Use it on interior doors, closets, and rooms where inside-only locking is what you want.

The Emtek 8560 Octagon is a single sided, non-keyed tubular deadbolt operated by a thumbturn from the inside only, with no cylinder or collar on the outside face. The nearest functional match is the Callan Model 205S, a one-sided half-bore deadbolt in Grade 3. The Callan is bored as a half-bore one-sided unit, while the Emtek uses a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so the door prep differs between the two.

Use the Arrow E60, a Grade 2 exit deadlock with a blank plate by thumbturn function for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. The Emtek 8560 Octagon is a residential single sided deadbolt in lost wax cast bronze, thumbturn from inside only, so it covers the same operating idea in a decorative bronze trim rather than a graded commercial exit deadlock.

The 8560 Octagon has no exterior cylinder and is non-keyed, so it cannot be keyed from outside. For key outside and thumbturn inside, the Dexter DB2000 single cylinder deadbolt is a Grade 2 cylinder by thumbturn unit for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder by thumbturn deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway for the same thickness range.

The 8560 Octagon is catalogued for residential use and is a non-keyed single sided tubular deadbolt, so a Grade 1 commercial spec is better served by a graded unit. Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, Deltana CL200LM is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt, and Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors.

The 8560 Octagon is a tubular deadbolt requiring a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore in a wood or similar door, which narrow stile openings cannot accept. For those doors look at mortise style deadlocks such as the International Door Closers DH-1821 hook bolt deadlock with flat faceplate or the DT-1851 long throw deadlatch lock, and the Dormakaba D900 small case mortise deadbolt with cylinder by turn in SC keyways.

The 8560 Octagon is non-keyed, so if you need key control you want a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt. For residential looks, the Bravura 310B Elite is a Grade 2 traditional round cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt, and the Bravura 310SC Elite is the contemporary square version. For a commercial opening, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt on the Schlage C keyway, fitting 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.

Three things: finish (Flat Black Bronze or Medium Bronze), backset (2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, required), and door thickness if your door is anything other than the standard 1-3/4 inches. No cylinder or collar is included or needed, since the outside face is blank.

The Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one sided half-bore deadbolt, which is a plainer, utility take on the same idea. The Emtek 8560 is the decorative route, with a cast bronze octagon thumbturn and a full 2-1/8 inch cross bore prep rather than a half bore.

The Emtek 8560 Octagon covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, with 1-3/4 inch treated as standard and thicker doors specified at order. Among the graded alternatives, the Deltana 7312KA2 double cylinder deadbolt covers the same 1-3/8 to 2 inch range in Grade 3. Most other tubular deadbolts stop earlier, such as the Dexter DB1000 at 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inches and the Cal-Royal ED500 at 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches.

Double cylinder units such as the Baldwin Reserve Double Cylinder Contemporary Round deadbolt, the Callan Model 210S Grade 3 double cylinder, and the Hager 3214 double cylinder require a key on both faces, which is the opposite of the 8560 Octagon thumbturn only operation. The BEST 8T is a tubular deadbolt tube component rather than a complete deadbolt, and the Baldwin 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer, so neither is a standalone lock. Electronic units like the Codelocks CL2200 surface deadbolt and the Delaney KP400 also change how the door is operated.

The Emtek 8560 Octagon uses a cast bronze octagon thumbturn as its only operating trim. If an ergonomic turn is the priority, the Cal-Royal LSD is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, though it adds an exterior key cylinder that the 8560 does not have.

Two bronze finishes: Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB), ordered as 8560FB and 8560MB. Both are part of Emtek's Tuscany Bronze collection, so they pair with other Tuscany bronze knobs and levers if you're matching a whole house.

Brass construction, lost wax cast bronze trim. Cast bronze is a solid, heavy trim material that wears in over time rather than plating off, which is why Emtek uses it across the Tuscany bronze line.
