Emtek 86420-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Emtek 86420 Neos backplate come with the cabinet knob, or is the knob sold separately?
The 86420 Neos is the backplate only. It is the plate that sits between the cabinet knob and the door or drawer face, so the knob itself is a separate order. Plan on matching the knob finish to the plate finish at the same time.
2) What finishes does the Neos 86420 backplate come in, and can I match it to knobs already on my cabinets?
Six finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), and Satin Brass (US4). Those are the standard US finish codes, so if your existing Emtek knobs are marked with one of those codes the plate will match. All six are offered in the single 1-1/4 x 1 inch size.
3) How does the Neos backplate mount to the cabinet door?
Surface mount. The plate lays flat on the face of the door or drawer and is captured by the knob's own screw through the existing hole, so there is no separate recess or mortise to cut. No additional drilling is needed if the knob hole is already there.
4) Is the Emtek 86420 backplate solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass, both as the material and the substrate, so the finish is applied over brass rather than over a die-cast base. It is part of Emtek's Brass collection.
5) Is the Emtek 86420 Neos plate appropriate for a commercial job or multi-family turns?
It is designated residential cabinet hardware, not commercial-duty. For apartment kitchens, condo units, and custom residential millwork it is the right category; for high-abuse institutional casework you would specify commercial-rated cabinet hardware instead.
6) What does the Neos backplate look like stylistically, and will it suit a contemporary kitchen?
Neos is a contemporary design with a curvilinear profile, so the plate has soft curved edges rather than hard square corners. It reads modern next to flat-panel and slab doors, and the Flat Black or Satin Brass options are the ones most often specified for that look.
7) Is the Emtek 86420 an electronic or smart hardware item?
No. The 86420 Neos is purely mechanical trim, with no electronics, wiring, or power requirement. It is a decorative brass plate behind a cabinet knob.
