Emtek 8100.T.RH.US15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Turino passage leverset fit a 1-3/4 inch door with standard bore prep?
Yes. The Turino passage set drops into a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore and covers doors from 1-3/8 inch up to 2-1/4 inch thick, so a typical 1-3/4 inch interior door needs no extra prep. The latch shipped standard is set for a 2-3/8 inch backset; if your existing bore is drilled at 2-3/4 inches from the door edge, specify that backset when you order. One exception on prep: the STRETTO rosette is not a 2-1/8 inch bore part, it wants a 1-1/4 inch diameter hole and a 2-hole door preparation.
2) Do I have to specify handing on an Emtek Turino lever?
Yes, handing is required. The Turino passage set is ordered left hand or right hand, so you need to know which way the door swings and which side the hinges are on before placing the order. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand. Levers are handed because the lever has to point toward the latch edge; get it backwards and the lever sits upside down.
3) The Emtek Turino passage set will not fit my door - what lever works on a 2 inch thick door?
The Turino passage set is prepped for doors 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch. For a door at 2 inches, passage levers that reach that thickness include the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever with the Withnell design, rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage/closet lever, rated 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock goes further still at 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
4) What is a commercial-grade equivalent to the Emtek Turino passage leverset for a hallway door that gets heavy traffic?
The Emtek Turino passage set is a residential brass leverset with a tubular passage mechanism, so for a high-traffic hallway the closer commercial answers are the Falcon K101, a Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers that covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors and carries a fire rating, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage/closet lock, also Grade 1 and fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Both latch and release the same way the Turino does - no key, no lock - but they are built and rated for commercial openings rather than finished residential interiors.
5) I need the same Emtek lever look on a bathroom door - is the Turino passage set the right one?
No. The Turino passage set is non-keyed with a passage function, meaning it never locks - it is for halls and closets. For a bed or bath opening you want a privacy function, such as the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Arrow MK02-TA privacy lock if a knob suits. The Baldwin 5103 also comes in passage and half dummy, so a bedroom suite can carry one lever design across the locking and non-locking doors.
6) Is a dummy lever the same as the Emtek Turino passage set?
No, and it is the substitution that goes wrong most often. The Turino passage set is sold complete with a latch and strike plate and has a working latch that retracts when the lever turns. A dummy lever is surface trim with no latch at all - the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy comes handed left or right, and the BEST 7KC single dummy trim and Accentra 455LN single dummy are the commercial equivalents. Use a dummy only on an inactive leaf or a door held by a ball catch; a door that must latch needs the passage set.
7) I ordered the Emtek Turino passage set but the door needs to lock with a key - what should I use instead?
The Turino passage set is non-keyed and cannot take a cylinder. For a keyed opening, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is Grade 1 with a clutching design for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. If the door is a storeroom rather than an office, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt.
8) What comes in the box with an Emtek Turino passage set, and what else do I need to buy?
It ships as a complete set: both levers, the rosettes you pick, the latch and the strike plate. Nothing else is required for a door already bored 2-1/8 inch. What you are choosing rather than adding is the rosette style (#8, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Watford or Wilshire), the latch faceplate corner (round or square, to match the mortise already cut in the door edge), and the backset. Hinges and any door stop are separate.
9) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek leversets?
CF is the clean-face build: the rosettes mount with no exposed screws, so you get an unbroken brass face on both sides of the door. It comes with the 28 degree rotation latch. If you order a standard latch instead, the rosettes use visible through-screws. Worth choosing on high-visibility openings, front hall doors and anywhere the hardware is part of the finish package.
10) What is the closest alternative to an Emtek Turino passage lever if I want the same decorative look from another brand?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose is the nearest decorative equivalent we carry, same function, same residential design intent. If you are matching a set of dummy doors on the same run, Baldwin lists the 5103 half dummy in both left and right hand. For a lower-cost passage lever in a plain round or square trim, the Bravura Miramar, Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa are Grade 2 passage leversets.
11) Can I match Emtek Turino levers to the other brass hardware already in the house?
Ten finishes are offered: Flat Black (US19), French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15) and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). The US numbers are the standard finish codes, so you can match against what is already hung. Unlacquered brass is the one that will patina over time rather than hold its color, which is usually the point of choosing it. Split finish is available if you want a different finish on each side of the door.
12) Will an Emtek Turino passage set work on a thick 2-1/4 inch solid door?
Yes, up to 2-1/4 inches with the standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep. There is a door thickness field on the order for exactly this reason, so enter the actual measured thickness rather than assuming. Most peers in this class stop short of that: the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever tops out at 1-3/4 inches and the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever at 2 inches.
13) Is the Emtek Turino a tubular or a mortise lock?
Tubular, of the cylindrical bored type. It goes into a round cross bore through the face of the door plus an edge bore for the latch, not a rectangular mortise pocket. If your door already has a mortise lock body cut into the edge, this will not drop in without a filler or a new door, and you should be looking at a mortise lockset instead.
14) Can I use a keypad lever in place of an Emtek Turino passage set on the same door?
Only if you want the door to control access. The Turino is a non-electronic passage set with no code or key. Keypad levers in passage function do exist - the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination in passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever in passage function with ADA compliance for 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock. These are deeper units with different door prep, so they are a change of scope rather than a drop-in for a hall or closet lever.
15) What passage leverset is a simpler alternative to the Emtek Turino for a rental unit closet door?
The Turino passage set is solid brass with a choice of seven rosettes and ten finishes, which is more selection than a closet door in a rental usually needs. A plainer passage lever for the same non-keyed hall and closet duty includes the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever, Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset, or the Bravura Atlanta passage leverset with round trim at Grade 2. All four operate identically at the door - lever both sides, latch retracts, nothing locks.
16) Which decorative passage lever compares most directly to the Emtek Turino?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose is the closest peer in the same decorative residential vein - a passage function lever paired with a named rose, the way the Turino pairs its lever with a choice of #8, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Watford, or Wilshire rosette. The Turino is a brass leverset in the American Classic style, so the two land in the same design conversation while giving different rose profiles.
17) For a classroom or institutional corridor, what replaces an Emtek Turino lever?
The Turino is a residential brass leverset, so an institutional corridor is better served by hardware carried at commercial grades. The Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty passage lever with pressure release technology. Where the opening needs to key, the Dexter C1000 classroom lever is Grade 1 and clutching for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter C1000 asylum function covers utility and institution doors at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
18) What is the difference between the Emtek Turino passage lever and a Falcon B101 passage lever?
Both are non-keyed passage levers for hall and closet doors. The Turino is a residential brass set that ships with its latch and strike, offers ten finishes from Flat Black through Unlacquered Brass, and is handed left or right. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lock from the B Series with a non-handed design, so it does not need a hand called out on the order. Choose on setting: finished residential trim versus rated commercial duty.
19) What passage leverset should I standardize on across an apartment building instead of the Emtek Turino?
The Turino is a residential brass set handed left or right, which means each opening needs its hand called out - workable for a unit turnover, more to track across a whole building. Non-handed passage levers simplify a fleet: the Falcon B101 is Grade 2 medium duty with a non-handed design, and the Falcon K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty, non-handed, and fire rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage lever in the 5300 Series if you want a full commercial series to standardize on.
20) What is a 28 degree latch and why would I pick it over the standard latch?
A 28 degree rotation latch retracts the bolt with a shorter sweep of the lever, so the handle moves less to open the door. On the Turino set it is offered on its own and it is bundled automatically with the CF mechanism. The standard latch is the third choice and is the conventional full-rotation part. Either way the latch is included in the set.
21) Can I use any Emtek brass rosette with the Turino lever?
Yes. The Turino lever can be ordered with any of the brass rosettes, and seven are listed: #8, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Watford and Wilshire. That lets you run one rosette shape through a whole house while changing lever styles room to room, or keep the lever and change the rosette to suit a rectangular versus round trim scheme. The body is solid brass throughout.
22) Are there passage levers with square trim if the Emtek Turino rosettes do not match my other doors?
The Turino takes brass rosettes in #8, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Watford, and Wilshire profiles, so a rectangular rose is available within the Turino itself. If the rest of the doors call for a distinctly square commercial trim, the Bravura Tampa passage leverset uses square trim at Grade 2, while the Bravura Orlando and Bravura Miramar use round trim - the Miramar is offered in US4 Satin Brass, which reads close to the Turino Satin Brass (US4).
