Emtek 8107.MNG.RH.US15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Manning passage lever fit a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door?
Yes. The Manning leverset drops into standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore. One exception on rosette choice: the STRETTO rosette needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole prep for thumbturn privacy, so it is not a straight standard-prep part.
2) Does the Manning lever come with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset latch?
Backset is a choice you make when ordering: 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. The standard latch supplied is 2-3/8 inch, so if your existing bore is centered 2-3/4 inches from the door edge you have to specify that. Those two are the only backsets used on residential bored doors, and measuring from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch hole tells you which you have.
3) Do I need to order a latch and strike separately with the Emtek Manning lever?
No. The Manning passage set ships complete with the latch and strike plate included. The latch faceplate is available with round or square corners so it can match the mortise already cut in your door edge.
4) Does a passage lever lock? What is the Manning passage set actually for?
It does not lock. Passage function means the lever retracts the latch from both sides at all times, with no key and no thumbturn, which is what you want on hallways, closets and pantry doors. Emtek's Manning set is non-keyed by design. For a bedroom or bath you need a privacy set with a thumbturn instead.
5) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek Manning leverset?
Yes, handing is part of the order. The Manning lever is offered left hand (LH) and right hand (RH). Stand outside the door, on the side it opens away from you: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand. Order the wrong one and the lever points up-slope instead of back toward the hinges.
6) What is the closest decorative equivalent to the Emtek Manning passage leverset from another residential brand?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is the nearest decorative match - it is a passage function lever set in the same residential-decorative vein as the Emtek Manning, which is a brass passage leverset in the American Designer style. The difference is in the trim system: the Manning lever can be ordered with a Lancaster, Ribbon & Reed, or Rope rosette and in French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Polished Brass - Lifetime (US3), Polished Chrome (US26), Satin Nickel (US15), or Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), while the Baldwin 5103 is paired with its 5048 rose.
7) I need a passage lever for a commercial corridor instead of a residential brass set - what should I use?
The Emtek Manning passage leverset is classified for residential use, so for a commercial corridor look at a graded cylindrical passage lock instead. The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers and a fire rating, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever lock, also fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Either gives you an ANSI grade the Manning set is not offered with.
8) The door is a bedroom or bathroom - is the Emtek Manning passage set the wrong lock, and what replaces it?
Yes, wrong function. The Manning set is passage, which is non-keyed and does not lock at all. For a bed or bath door you need a privacy function: the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose keeps the same decorative lever look, while the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever.
9) The opening needs to be keyed - what do I order instead of the Emtek Manning passage leverset?
The Manning passage set is non-keyed, so it cannot take a cylinder. For a keyed opening, the Deltana 6201 Manchester and 6411 Morant are entry function levers for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors in a similar decorative style, and on the commercial side the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/8 inch backset, or the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle.
10) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - will the Emtek Manning passage set still work, or do I need another lever?
The Manning passage set is specified for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, and a door thickness can be entered when ordering. If your opening is thicker than that range, a passage lever built for it is the safer pick: the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 Withnell passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra passage lock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
11) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek levers and should I pick it?
CF gives you rosettes with no exposed screws, so the trim reads clean from both faces. Choose it where the hardware is on display. The CF option includes the 28 degree rotation latch, which is a shorter lever throw than the standard latch. Your three latch choices are standard latch, the 28 degree rotation latch on its own, or CF with the 28 degree latch.
12) What is a decorative alternative to the Emtek Manning passage lever?
In the same decorative residential category, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose is the closest equivalent. If you are furnishing a whole door set in one style, the 5103 is also offered in privacy and in left and right hand half dummy versions for closet and French door leaves. Bravura's Miramar, Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa passage leversets are Grade 2 options with round or square trim.
13) What is a simpler, lower-cost passage lever option than the Emtek Manning set?
If you do not need the decorative brass rosette options, a plain Grade 3 or Grade 2 passage lever covers the same hall and closet duty. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever set is Grade 3 and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. Stepping up slightly, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever lock. All perform the same latching-only function as the Manning passage set, without the Lancaster, Ribbon & Reed, or Rope rosette choices.
14) Is a dummy lever the same thing as the Emtek Manning passage set?
No. The Manning passage set is a working latch set - it is sold complete with latch and strike plate and the lever retracts the latch. A dummy lever is fixed trim with no latch at all, used on inactive or closet-face doors. If that is what you need, the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is offered in left hand and right hand versions, the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, and the BEST 9K 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim.
15) I want a non-handed passage lever so I do not have to specify handing - what is an alternative to the Emtek Manning?
The Manning passage set is ordered as left hand or right hand. If you would rather stock one part for both swings, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lever lock with a non-handed design, and the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lock with non-handed levers. Either removes handing from the order line.
16) Can a keyless pushbutton lever replace the Emtek Manning passage set on a back-of-house door?
It can, but they are different animals. The Manning is a mechanical, non-electronic, non-keyed passage set that never restricts entry. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination and passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Choose those when you want code-controlled access rather than a free-turning lever.
17) What passage lever should I standardize on across a school or healthcare facility instead of the Emtek Manning?
The Manning passage set is a residential brass leverset, so for a facility standard look to graded commercial passage locks. The Dexter C1000 is a Grade 1 clutching non-keyed passage cylindrical lever lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology, and the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three give you an ANSI Grade 1 line you can carry across an institution.
18) Is the Emtek Manning lever solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass. Both the substrate and the finished material on the Manning leverset are brass, which is why it is sold in the brass collection and can take any of the brass rosettes, including the Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) finish that will patina over time.
