Emtek EMP24216-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Emtek EMPowered handleset go on an existing door prep, or do I need to re-bore?
If the door already carries a standard 2-1/8" cross bore and the two bores are 5-1/2" apart center to center, the EMP4216 drops onto the existing prep. That 5-1/2" CTC is the common residential handleset spacing, so a lot of replacements go straight in. The set ships complete with the latch and strike plate, so you're not sourcing those separately. Latch is 2-3/8" backset as standard, with 2-3/4" available if that's what the door is bored for.
2) What backset do I order for the Emtek EMP4216 handleset?
Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore. If it's 2-3/8", that's the standard latch and nothing needs calling out. If your door is bored at 2-3/4", which is typical on thicker or heavier entry doors, specify 2-3/4" on the order. Both are offered as an ordering choice on the EMP4216.
3) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek EMPowered handleset?
Handing matters if you're putting a lever on the inside, or if you specify an interconnect device. A knob interior is symmetrical and doesn't care. Right hand and left hand are both offered on the EMP4216, so determine handing standing outside the door: if the hinges are on your right, it's a right hand door.
4) Can the Emtek EMP4216 be keyed into my existing Schlage or Weiser system?
Both keyways are on the table. The standard cylinder is Schlage C, so it keys into an existing Schlage C system. If your building runs Weiser, order the Weiser WR5 keyway version instead, which keys into an existing Weiser system with no upcharge for the cylinder substitution. Every finish is offered in either keyway. On the order you also choose keyed different or keyed alike, and there's a field for keying to a specific code if you're matching an existing bitting.
5) What is the closest alternative to the Emtek EMP4216 Hercules handleset if the door is 1-3/4 inch and I want a touchscreen keypad instead of a Bluetooth app lock?
The Emtek EMP4216 Hercules is a single cylinder entry handleset with an electronic EMPowered upgrade that runs over Bluetooth with the Yale Access app. If you want a keypad on the exterior rather than phone-based entry, the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock is a standalone touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield handleset and covers a 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. The Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset pairs a Halifax lever interior trim with a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt for a 1-3/4 inch door and ships with the RCAL latch and RCS strike.
6) I need a keyed entry handleset but no electronics at all - what takes the place of the Emtek EMP4216 Hercules?
The EMP4216 Hercules is built as an electronic entry handleset in brass, so a purely mechanical opening is a different part. The Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is a Grade 2 F Series set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors in the Premiere Essentials line, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial handleset with Eleganti knob is a single cylinder keyed entry for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset in the HDLB Series.
7) Which handleset should I specify if my facility standard calls for an ANSI/BHMA graded lock?
The Emtek EMP4216 Hercules is a residential brass tubular entry handleset. When a grade has to appear on the submittal, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever and the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever are both Grade 2, and the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset is Grade 2 as well. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder handlesets are Grade 3.
8) My door is 1-3/8 inch - which handlesets actually fit that thin a door?
The Emtek EMP4216 Hercules handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore. Among other entry handlesets, the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder is listed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Deltana 810871 Montego for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Yale BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock with Ridgefield handleset starts at 1-3/4 inch, so it will not suit a 1-3/8 inch door.
9) Can I use a Baldwin 6542 Tremont entry trim in place of the Emtek EMP4216 Hercules handleset?
They prep differently. The Emtek EMP4216 Hercules is a tubular handleset with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 5-1/2 inch center-to-center door prep, and a latch for either a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont is entry mortise trim for a 1-3/4 inch door and is offered in single cylinder and double cylinder versions, which means a mortise lock body pocket in the door edge rather than a bored crossbore and backset. Confirm which prep the door already has before substituting.
10) Is the Kwikset 687AMD Amador handleset a complete replacement for the Emtek EMP4216 Hercules?
Not on its own. The Emtek EMP4216 Hercules ships as a complete set with the latch and strike plate and takes any brass knob or lever for the inside trim. The Kwikset 687AMD Amador single cylinder handleset is a Grade 3 keyed entry for a 1-3/4 inch door and is sold exterior only, as is the Kwikset 687BW Belleview. The 687AMD is offered with SmartKey and in an SC1 keyway SmartKey version. If you want a Kwikset set with both sides included, the 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente comes with Halifax lever interior trim.
11) I want the Emtek EMP4216 Hercules smart lock function but key-free entry for guests - what else is there?
The EMP4216 Hercules keeps a keyed single cylinder in a Schlage C keyway, with a Weiser WR5 keyway available. For a key-free set, the Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX Assure key free touchscreen deadbolt comes with the Ridgefield passage handleset and trim connected by August on Wi-Fi, for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Yale BYRD410BLERX Assure Lock 2 key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. If you want the keypad but keep a key override, the Yale BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock runs both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with the Ridgefield handleset.
12) What does the EMPowered upgrade actually do on this Emtek handleset?
EMPowered is Emtek's electronic version of the handleset. The deadbolt runs on 4 AA batteries and talks over Bluetooth through the Yale Access app, so you get phone control and shared access on a solid brass handleset that still takes a key from outside. It's a single cylinder entry set, so the key operates the exterior and the interior side is thumbturn or app driven.
13) Can I match the Emtek EMP4216 handleset to the interior door hardware already in my house?
The inside trim is open. The EMP4216 takes any Emtek brass knob or lever, so if your interior doors already run Emtek levers or knobs the entry set can be specified with the same style, right through the crystal knobs, the L-Bar and T-Bar contemporary families, and the traditional levers. Six exterior finishes are offered: Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Polished Nickel US14, Satin Nickel US15, Flat Black US19, Polished Chrome US26 and Satin Brass US4.
14) Is the Emtek EMPowered handleset a mortise lock or a tubular lock?
Tubular. The EMP4216 uses the standard 2-1/8" bored prep rather than a mortise pocket cut into the door edge, which means it installs on a normally bored entry door without routing. Emtek does build mortise entry handlesets as well, but those need a mortise-prepped door and are not interchangeable with this prep.
15) Is the Emtek EMP4216 handleset rated for commercial use?
It's a residential product. For a multi-family or commercial opening under a spec calling for a graded lockset, look at a graded handleset instead: the Schlage Residential F60 Addison is Grade 2 and covers 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" doors, and the Master Lock HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is also Grade 2. Kwikset's 687 Amador and 687 Belleview single cylinder handlesets are Grade 3.
16) I want a plain mechanical brass handleset, not an electronic one. What should I look at?
Skip the EMPowered electronics and look at a solid brass mechanical entry handleset. The Deltana Hanover 803871B, St. Ann 815871 and Kingston 825871 are all solid brass entry handlesets; the Deltana Montego 810871 covers 1-3/8" to 2" doors. On the traditional side, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson knob is a single cylinder handleset for 1-3/8" to 2" doors, and the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob covers 1-3/4" to 2-1/4".
17) What matches the Emtek EMP4216 Hercules handleset on an interior or closet door that does not need to lock?
The EMP4216 Hercules is an entry function set with a keyed single cylinder, which is more than a non-latching opening needs. For a dummy handleset, the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob in the Elegance Series and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever in the Premiere Essentials Series are both dummy function and cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. If the opening needs to latch but not key, the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function J Series set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
18) What solid brass handleset alternatives are there to the Emtek EMP4216 Hercules for a traditional entry?
The EMP4216 Hercules is a brass handleset in a contemporary style. In solid brass with a traditional look, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover handleset, the 815871 St. Ann handleset, and the 825871 Kingston handleset, all entry function and all solid brass. The Deltana 810871 Montego handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness. Baldwin's Wesley handleset is available paired with the Alcott knob or the Carnaby knob, both entrance function.
19) The Emtek EMP4216 Hercules mentions an interconnect option - what is the alternative if I need a latch and deadbolt that retract together?
On the EMP4216 Hercules, handing has to be specified if a lever is used inside or if an interconnect device is called out. A separate interconnected set is the Schlage Residential JI18/19 interconnected passage lock with keyed deadbolt and Torino lever in satin stainless steel, a Grade 2 JI Series unit for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, with the inside trim on passage function and the deadbolt keyed.
20) Does the Emtek EMP4216 handleset come with the latch and strike, or do I order those separately?
Complete set. Latch and strike plate are both in the box, so the only separate decision is the interior knob or lever style, which you specify with the order rather than buying as a second item. Standard latch is 2-3/8" backset unless you call out 2-3/4".
