Emtek 8568 Rectangular Single Sided Deadbolt - Brass

No. The 8568 Rectangular deadbolt is a single sided, non-keyed unit: it throws and retracts by thumbturn from the inside only, and it ships with no cylinder and no outside collar. There is nothing on the exterior face of the door at all. If you need to lock or unlock from outside, you want a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt instead.

The 8568 drops into a standard tubular deadbolt prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face and a 1 inch edge bore. Backset is a required choice at order time, either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, so measure from the door edge to the center of the existing bore before you pick. Those two backsets are the standard pair on residential doors, so an existing deadbolt hole will usually take it without redrilling.

Not the right call for a main entry. The 8568 is built for interior installation and appearance, it is non-keyed, and with no outside cylinder nobody can get back in once it is thrown. It suits interior applications, an office or store room door, a second door on a vestibule, a French door leaf that stays fixed. For an exterior entry where you need key access from outside, move to a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt such as the Hager 3215 or the Dexter DB1000 Series single cylinder.

The Emtek 8568 throws a bolt from a thumbturn on the inside only, with no cylinder and no outside trim. The Arrow E60 is the closest match in function: it is a non-keyed exit deadlock with a blank plate x thumbturn arrangement, so the outside face carries a plain plate instead of a key cylinder. The E60 is a Grade 2 lock covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, while the Emtek 8568 is a residential brass deadbolt built for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors on a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Callan 205S is the other one-sided option, a Grade 3 half-bore deadbolt that bores only partway through the door.

The Emtek 8568 is a non-keyed single sided deadbolt operated by a thumbturn from inside only, so there is no way to secure the door behind you from the exterior. For a keyed exterior, step to a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt: the Dexter DB2000-SCT is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt cut to the Schlage C keyway over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range, and the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt on a 2-3/8 inch backset.

The Emtek 8568 is a residential single sided deadbolt with no cylinder, sized for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Where the opening carries a fire label, the Hager 3215 is a fire rated single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3118 is a fire rated Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and a 6-pin cylinder over the same thickness range. The Cal-Royal CRB800 is a heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch.

The 8568 as sold is thumbturn only with no cylinder supplied, and the deadbolt chassis is built around the Schlage C keyway. That matters if you later want the unit keyed into a Schlage C house key system, or if you are standardizing an interior set alongside keyed hardware on the same keyway. As shipped there is nothing to key.

It is a residential-duty tubular deadbolt with a rectangular brass trim plate, meant for interior residential openings. For a commercial opening, or a multi-family door where you need a graded lock, look at a Grade 1 or Grade 2 deadbolt instead, the Accentra D111 is Grade 1 cylinder x thumbturn with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, and the Arrow DBX61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder.

The Emtek 8568 is a full tubular install, it takes a 2-1/8 inch cross bore straight through the door plus a 1 inch edge bore, even though only the inside face carries trim. If you would rather not bore through, the Callan Model 205S is a one-sided half-bore deadbolt, Grade 3. That is the difference between the two, prep depth, not just appearance.

You pick it. Backset is a required selection, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, and it is fixed once chosen rather than adjustable in the field. If you are ordering for several doors that may not all be prepped alike, or you do not have a measurement yet, an adjustable-backset deadbolt like the Cal-Royal ED500 or the Brinks Raleigh with its 4-way adjustable backset avoids the guess, though both of those are keyed cylinder x thumbturn units rather than single sided.

The Emtek 8568 is a residential single sided deadbolt with a blank exterior, so staff outside the room cannot operate it. Classroom-function deadbolts key from the corridor side: the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with an adjustable backset, the Falcon D211 is the Grade 2 medium duty classroom deadbolt with single cylinder operation, and the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick.

The Emtek 8568 is a residential brass deadbolt in the Rectangular series, sold in ten finishes from Oil Rubbed Bronze to Unlacquered Brass. If a job specification calls out an ANSI grade, the graded peers are the ones to quote: the Design Hardware D1 Series is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal CB160 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a tamper-resistant cylinder guard, and the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an adjustable backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek 8568 has a thumbturn on the interior and no cylinder at all, so it cannot be keyed on either face. Double cylinder deadbolts take a key inside and out: the Dexter DB1000-DCT is a Grade 1 double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Deltana 7312KA2 is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the same thickness range the 8568 spans. Confirm your local code allows a double cylinder on the opening before specifying one.

Both carry a rectangular rose. The Emtek 8568 is a brass, non-keyed single sided deadbolt in the American Classic style, turned by a thumbturn only and offered in ten finishes including Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19) and French Antique (US7). The Bravura rectangle deadbolt is a Grade 2 single cylinder unit with a cylinder x thumbturn function, so it takes a key from the exterior. Choose by whether the door face needs a keyed exterior or a blank one.

No. The Emtek 8568 is a complete single sided deadbolt: brass trim, thumbturn and tubular latch for a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. The Baldwin Reserve 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer, a fitting used with a double cylinder deadbolt rather than a lock on its own, and the BEST 8T is the T Series tubular deadbolt tube component, the latch body without trim. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike with a straight lip, the plate that mounts in the frame. None of the three lock a door by themselves.

The Emtek 8568 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors and is ordered with a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset chosen up front, with thicker doors called out on the order. Where the backset varies door to door, the Brinks Raleigh E2401 round deadbolt and the Brinks Mendocino E2402 square deadbolt both use a 4 way adjustable backset, and 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.

Ten finishes, all on a solid brass body: Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Brass (US4), French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), and Polished Chrome (US26). Unlacquered brass is the one to note if you are matching a set, it is left bare and will patina over time rather than holding the out-of-box color.

The 8568 uses a rectangular plate in Emtek's American Classic styling, in solid brass. If the knobs or levers on the adjacent doors are Emtek in the same finish code, the deadbolt will read as part of the set. Match on the finish code, not the finish name, US15 satin nickel on the deadbolt against US15 on the passage sets, for example.

The Emtek 8568 is a non-electronic deadbolt operated by a thumbturn. If the door needs code or credential entry, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in a brushed steel finish, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override. Those replace the manual thumbturn arrangement rather than supplement it.
