Emtek 8802-US15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the Emtek 8802 door ball catch used for?
The Emtek 8802 is a spring-loaded ball catch mechanism that holds doors in the closed position. It provides positive door retention without requiring a traditional latch or lock mechanism.
2) What door types and thicknesses work with this ball catch?
This ball catch works with standard interior doors typically 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" thick. Suitable for closet doors, cabinet doors, and lightweight passage doors. Verify door weight capacity before installation.
3) Does this ball catch require specific door handing?
No, ball catches are typically non-handed and work with both left and right swing doors. The catch mounts in the door edge and engages a strike plate on the frame.
4) What finishes are available for the Emtek 8802?
Emtek typically offers multiple finish options including brass, bronze, and other decorative finishes. Check product specifications for available finishes that match your existing hardware.
5) What is the holding strength of this ball catch?
Ball catches provide light to medium holding force suitable for interior doors. They are not designed for heavy doors or high-security applications. Verify manufacturer specifications for exact force ratings.
6) Are there building code considerations for ball catches?
Ball catches are typically used on non-egress doors like closets and storage areas. Check local codes for specific door applications, especially on doors that may require panic hardware or accessibility compliance.
7) What parts are included with the Emtek 8802?
Typically includes the spring-loaded ball catch mechanism, strike plate, and mounting screws. Verify package contents upon receipt and check if additional hardware is needed for your specific installation.
8) How do you install the Emtek 8802 ball catch?
Mount the catch body in a drilled hole on the door edge. Install the strike plate on the door frame aligned with the catch. Use manufacturer template for precise positioning and hole sizing.
9) How do you maintain and adjust ball catches?
Keep the mechanism clean and lubricate occasionally with light oil. If the catch becomes loose, check mounting screws. Some models allow spring tension adjustment by rotating the catch body.
10) What are alternatives to the Emtek 8802?
Consider other Emtek ball catch models or magnetic catches for similar applications. Roller catches offer an alternative mechanism for light-duty door retention.
11) What door conditions affect ball catch performance?
Door alignment, frame squareness, and proper gap spacing affect operation. Warped doors or loose hinges can prevent proper engagement. Ensure consistent door-to-frame alignment for reliable catching.
12) What hole size is required for installation?
Hole diameter varies by model but typically requires a precise bore in the door edge. Consult manufacturer installation template for exact dimensions and positioning to ensure proper fit and operation.
