Emtek 8704-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What door thickness does the Emtek Quincy 8704 passage lockset work on?
1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches covers it, which spans the common older interior door and the standard 1-3/4 inch door. There is a Door Thickness field on the order so you can state what you have; anything outside that range is not this lockset.
2) Does the Emtek 8704 Quincy passage set lock, and where should I use it?
It does not lock. Passage function means the knob or lever turns the latch from both sides at all times, with no key and no privacy button, so it belongs on hallways, closets, pantries, and any door that just needs to stay latched shut. If you need a thumbturn for a bedroom or bath, or a key, the Quincy sideplate is the wrong function to order.
3) Do I have to specify handing when ordering an Emtek Quincy sideplate lockset?
Handing is required, right hand or left hand, and it matters for leversets in particular since a lever has to point the correct way. Stand outside the door: the side the hinges are on tells you the hand. Get it wrong and the lever hangs backwards.
4) What sideplate lockset should I use on an entry door that needs to lock with a key, instead of the Emtek 8704 Quincy?
The Emtek 8704 Quincy sideplate lockset is a passage, non-keyed function, so it latches the door but never locks - correct for a hall, closet, or pantry door and wrong for an entry. For a keyed opening in the same sideplate look, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, keyed from the outside. Where local egress rules or an owner want a key on both faces, the Omnia D12036AC is the double cylinder version of the same deadbolt lever lockset with sideplate design.
5) I need a sideplate handle on a door that does not move - what do I order instead of a passage set?
A passage set like the Emtek 8704 Quincy carries a working latch and strike, which does nothing for a false door, a closet slab that is held shut by a magnet, or the inactive leaf of a pair. For those, the Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates, spaced 5-1/2 inches center to center - surface mounted trim with no latch to operate. Order the 8704 Quincy when the door actually latches and the lever or knob has to retract it.
6) Can I pick any Emtek knob or lever on the Quincy 9 inch sideplate?
Any brass knob or lever style Emtek offers can be ordered on the Quincy plate, and the choice list runs from levers like Stuttgart, Athena, Poseidon, Milano and Rope through knobs like Egg, Providence, Octagon and Square, plus crystal knobs such as Windsor, Bristol and Georgetown. That is how you match a run of doors: same 9 inch plate throughout, different trim where a room calls for it.
7) What finishes does the Emtek Quincy 8704 sideplate come in?
Eight: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and French Antique (US7). Two of those behave differently over time. Unlacquered brass has no clear coat and will darken and patina with handling, which is the point of specifying it. Polished Brass Lifetime is finished to stay bright.
8) Is the Emtek 8704 Quincy lockset rated for commercial door traffic?
It is a residential product, solid brass, tubular latch. For a house, a condo unit, or a light interior door in a multi-family building it is the right class of hardware. For a school corridor, a hospital wing, or anything specified as heavy commercial traffic, you want a cylindrical or mortise commercial lockset instead, not a residential sideplate set.
9) How is a sideplate lockset like the Emtek Quincy different from a normal rosette knob set?
A rosette set puts a small round or square trim ring around the knob and nothing else. The Quincy is a sideplate design: a 9 inch plate runs vertically down the face of the door behind the knob or lever, in the same American Classic look on both sides. It is a heavier visual statement and it covers more of the door face, which is useful when you are replacing older hardware that left marks or a larger footprint. Functionally it is still a bored tubular lockset in a 2-1/8 inch cross bore.
10) I need a matching sideplate deadbolt to go with a passage set. What are my options?
The Quincy 8704 itself is passage only, non-keyed, so it gives you no deadbolt. Omnia makes sideplate deadbolt leversets in solid brass that cover the locking side of the opening: the D12036A is single cylinder, the D12036AC is double cylinder for a door with glass nearby, and the D12036PD is a double dummy on plates with 5-1/2 inch center to center for an inactive leaf. Those are a different brand, so the plate design and finish will not match Emtek exactly, but they are the sideplate-style locking equivalents.
11) I have a door that does not need to latch at all. Is the Emtek Quincy passage set right?
No. A passage set carries a working latch and strike, and it will latch every time the door closes. On a closet pair or an inactive leaf where you only want a pull, you want a dummy set instead. The Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy lever on plates at 5-1/2 inch center to center if you want the plate look without any working mechanism.
12) Is an Omnia D12036A a direct replacement for an Emtek 8704 Quincy sideplate lockset?
No - they are different functions and different door preps. The Emtek 8704 Quincy is a non-keyed passage tubular lockset on a single standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore, with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset, which combines a deadbolt with the lever trim and therefore expects a bored deadbolt hole above the latch bore. Swapping one for the other on an existing door means new boring, not a trim change.
13) For a whole-house or unit turnover, how do I keep one sideplate look across passage, keyed, and dummy doors?
Match by function, door by door. Hall, closet, and pantry doors take the Emtek 8704 Quincy 9 inch non-keyed sideplate lockset in passage, ordered in one finish across the unit - it is offered in Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Brass - Lifetime (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), and French Antique (US7). Entry doors take a keyed sideplate set such as the Omnia D12036A single cylinder or D12036AC double cylinder in solid brass. False and inactive leaves take the Omnia D12036PD double dummy with plates. All four are solid brass sideplate trim, so the run reads as one family.
14) Do I need to specify handing on an Omnia dummy sideplate the way I do on the Emtek 8704 Quincy?
Handing on the Emtek 8704 Quincy is driven by the trim: handing is required when the set is ordered with a lever, and right hand or left hand is selected at order time. The Omnia D12036PD is a double dummy lever lockset with plates at 5-1/2 inch center to center - dummy trim is fixed and does not operate a latch, so what governs there is which face each plate lands on rather than a latch hand. Confirm the lever style before ordering either one.
