Emtek 8207.C.RH.US15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Emtek Cortina lever come with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset latch?
Backset is a required choice when ordering, 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. The standard latch supplied is the 2-3/8 inch backset version, so if your door is bored 2-3/4 inches from the edge to the center of the hole (common on exterior and some wider-stile doors), you have to specify 2-3/4 inch. The latch itself is listed as adjustable between the two.
2) Is the Emtek Cortina privacy set handed, and how do I know which hand to order?
Yes, it is handed, left hand or right hand. Stand on the outside of the door (the hallway side for a bed or bath). If the hinges are on your left, it is a left hand lever; hinges on the right, right hand. Order the hand that matches, because the lever cannot be flipped after the fact on a handed designer leverset.
3) Can I use the Emtek Cortina privacy leverset on a commercial office or school door?
The Cortina privacy leverset is classified as residential hardware. For a commercial opening needing a privacy or restroom-type lever, look at the Hager 2540 Grade 2 cylindrical lock with Withnell lever, which fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, or the Arrow MK02-TA privacy cylindrical lock, which is fire rated and takes doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch thick with a Tudor knob rather than a lever. The Cortina is the choice where the look drives the spec on a residential-style door.
4) What is the closest decorative brass alternative to the Emtek Cortina privacy leverset for a bedroom or bath door?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the nearest decorative equivalent. Both are privacy/bed/bath function levers sold as a complete set. The Emtek Cortina is a brass leverset offered in French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Polished Brass - Lifetime (US3), Polished Chrome (US26), Satin Nickel (US15) and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), with a choice of Lancaster, Ribbon & Reed or Rope rosette, while the Baldwin 5103 comes with its own 5048 rose design. Pick on rose profile and lever shape, since the lock function matches.
5) I need a privacy lever for a bathroom door but the Emtek Cortina is more decorative than the job calls for - what is a simpler option?
The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton Privacy Lever Set is a plainer builder-grade choice. It is a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Emtek Cortina is a solid brass privacy leverset with a choice of Lancaster, Ribbon & Reed or Rope rosette and a CF mechanism option that leaves no exposed screws on the rosettes - detail the Kwikset does not carry. If the door just needs to lock and the trim is not part of the design package, the Breton covers the function.
6) Does the Emtek Cortina privacy leverset include the latch and strike, or do I buy those separately?
It ships as a complete set: both levers, the rosettes you select, the latch and the strike plate. Nothing else is needed to hang it on a bored door. The latch faceplate is offered in round corner or square corner so it matches the mortise already cut in your door edge.
7) What is the difference between the standard latch, the 28 degree latch, and the CF mechanism on Emtek leversets?
Three choices. The standard latch is the conventional tubular latch. The 28 degree rotation latch shortens the lever swing, so the handle drops less to retract the bolt. The CF mechanism is the concealed fastener version, where the rosettes mount with no exposed screws for a cleaner look, and it comes with the 28 degree latch included. If screw heads on the rose are a problem aesthetically, CF is the option to pick.
8) Is the Emtek Cortina privacy lever keyed, and how does the bed and bath function actually work?
It is non-keyed. Privacy function means it locks from the inside, typically by thumbturn or pushbutton, and releases with an emergency tool from the outside, which is what you want on a bedroom or bathroom. If you need key control on the opening, a privacy set is the wrong function, look at an entrance or keyed lock instead.
9) Can I use the Emtek Cortina brass leverset in a commercial building or apartment corridor?
It is a residential product, solid brass, in Emtek's American Designer styling. For a bedroom or bath door in a house, condo, or a high-end multi-family unit it is fine. For commercial traffic where a specifier wants an ANSI grade, go to a graded cylindrical lock instead, such as the Falcon K101 Grade 1 or the Hager 2540 Grade 2 privacy lock with the Withnell lever.
10) What is a comparable decorative privacy lever to the Emtek Cortina if I want a different look?
The closest peer in the decorative residential category is the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose, also a privacy function set. For a budget residential opening, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set is a Grade 3 option covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Cortina differs in that it is solid brass with a choice of rosette pattern and split finishes.
11) What should I order instead of the Cortina privacy set for a hall or closet door where no lock is needed?
Privacy is the wrong function for a hall or closet - you want passage. The Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage Lever with 5048 Rose keeps a decorative brass look, and the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando or Tampa passage leversets are Grade 2 options, with the Tampa carrying square trim and the Atlanta and Orlando round trim. The Cortina privacy set is built for bed and bath doors that need to lock from inside.
12) Is the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy a substitute for the Emtek Cortina privacy leverset?
No. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is a dummy-function trim, offered left hand (5103-LDM) and right hand (5103-RDM), with no latch and no locking mechanism - it is a pull for an inactive leaf. The Emtek Cortina privacy set is a complete privacy/bed/bath lockset that includes the latch and strike plate and locks from the inside. Order a dummy only for the fixed half of a pair.
13) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Emtek Cortina privacy leverset work, or do I need something else?
The Cortina privacy leverset is specified for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a 2 inch door, the Hager 2510 passage lever and Hager 2525 entry lever both cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana Manchester 6201, Morant 6411 and Linstead 6431 entry levers cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Match the function you need before the thickness, since those peers are passage and entry rather than privacy.
14) The Cortina is handed - is there a non-handed lever I can stock instead to cut down on SKUs?
The Emtek Cortina is ordered left hand or right hand. If reducing handing SKUs is the goal, the Falcon B101 Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock both use a non-handed lever design, with the K101 covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch and carrying a fire rating. Both are passage function, so they suit halls and closets rather than bed and bath openings.
15) I need matching passage and dummy levers for the closet and the double doors, not just privacy. What do I do?
The Cortina privacy set covers the bed and bath openings only. Emtek builds the same Cortina lever in passage and dummy functions so a whole floor can be trimmed out consistently, and any of the brass rosettes carry across, so a Lancaster rose on the bedroom will match a Lancaster rose on the closet. Order the same finish code across all of them, and use the comments field to flag that they should be finish-matched as a group.
16) Is there a keyless pushbutton lever I can use where I would otherwise put the Emtek Cortina?
If code entry matters more than the brass trim, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is ADA compliant with passage function for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, the Lockey 2835DC adds a double combination, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set for doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch. The Emtek Cortina is a non-electronic, non-keyed privacy leverset that locks by thumbturn from the room side.
