Emtek EMP24218-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek EMP4218 Hercules handleset fit my existing door prep?
It drops into a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing between the handle and the deadbolt bore, which is the common residential handleset prep. Door thickness range is 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. Standard latch is 2-3/8 inch backset, with 2-3/4 inch available if your door is bored that way.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the EMP4218 EMPowered handleset?
Only in two cases: if you pick a lever for the inside trim, or if an interconnect device is specified. A knob on the interior is non-handed. Since handing is asked for at order time, get the swing right (right hand or left hand as viewed from the outside) before you submit.
3) Can I key this Emtek EMPowered handleset into my existing Schlage or Weiser system?
Both. Standard cylinder is Schlage C keyway. Adding a W to the front of the product code substitutes a Weiser WR5 cylinder at no upcharge, so it can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Keying is offered keyed alike or keyed different, and you can supply an existing key code at order time.
4) What makes this an EMPowered lock, and how is it controlled?
The EMP4218 is Emtek's electronic version of the Hercules Knurled monolithic handleset: the deadbolt is motorized and runs on 4 AA batteries, with Bluetooth connectivity through the Yale Access app. The key cylinder stays, so it works mechanically as well.
5) My door is thicker than standard, around 2 inches. Will this work?
Yes, the range covers 1-3/8 all the way to 2-1/4 inches, so a 2 inch door is inside it. There's a door thickness field at order time to note yours. By comparison, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest handleset tops out at 2 inches and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington at 1-3/4.
6) What is the closest alternative to the Emtek EMP4218 Hercules handleset if I want app control but a different brand?
The Emtek EMP4218 is an electronic entry handleset that works over Bluetooth with the Yale Access app on a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door. The closest cross-brand equivalents are the Yale Real Living Assure Lock handlesets: the BYRD226CBARX pairs a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the BYRD226NRRX is the standalone (no radio) version of the same Ridgefield handleset set. The Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente pairs a SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt with a Halifax lever interior on a 1-3/4 inch door. Main difference: the EMP4218 is a monolithic single cylinder handleset in solid brass with the electronics integrated, while the Yale and Kwikset sets are a separate electronic deadbolt above a handleset grip.
7) I do not need the smart lock - what is a simpler keyed entry handleset instead of the Emtek EMP4218?
The EMP4218 is a single cylinder entry handleset with electronics built in. For a purely mechanical keyed entry handleset, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is a Grade 2 entrance set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder entry handleset for the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson knob is a single cylinder set for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Sure-Loc also offers the Aspen AN507 single cylinder keyed entry handleset with an adjustable backset, which covers both bores without specifying one at order.
8) Which handlesets look like a substitute for the Emtek EMP4218 but will not work on a keyed entry door?
Watch out for dummy and non-keyed trim. The Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever are both dummy function, so they have no latch or cylinder. The Schlage JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function. The Kwikset 687AMD and 687BW Amador and Belleview sets are exterior trim only, so they do not include interior trim. The EMP4218 is a complete single cylinder entry set supplied with latch and strike plate and an inside knob or lever of your choosing.
9) I have a thick 2-1/4 inch entry door - which handlesets besides the Emtek EMP4218 will fit?
The EMP4218 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness. Other sets rated to 2-1/4 inch include the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob at 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Yale Real Living Assure sets BYRD226CBARX, BYRD226NRRX and BYRD256 CBARX at 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Sets such as the Schlage F60 Addison and Pamex FS7P31 Lexington top out at 1-3/4 inch, so they will not suit that door.
10) Is anything else needed to complete the install, or is the latch and strike included?
Sold as a complete set including the latch and strike plate. What you do have to choose is the interior trim: knob or lever style is a required selection, along with handing, backset and keying. No separate deadbolt purchase.
11) Can I match the interior knob or lever to the rest of the house?
Yes. Any Emtek brass knob or lever can be ordered as the inside trim, and the selection list runs from contemporary shapes (T-Bar, L-Square, R-Bar in knurled, faceted, hammered, Tribeca and white marble) through traditional levers like Cortina, Milano and Turino and crystal knobs such as Windsor and Georgetown.
12) Is this handleset suitable for a commercial entrance or apartment building corridor?
Emtek lists the EMP4218 as residential. It's a tubular bored lockset in brass for single-family entry doors. For multi-family or commercial openings, a graded product is the safer route, such as the Master Lock HDLB Series Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset or the Schlage Residential F60 Addison, which is listed Grade 2.
13) Single cylinder versus double cylinder: what does single cylinder mean on this handleset?
Single cylinder means one key cylinder on the exterior and a thumbturn on the inside, which is standard entry function. If your door has glass within arm's reach of the deadbolt and you want key operation from both sides, you need a double cylinder set instead, for example the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont double cylinder entry mortise trim.
14) The Emtek EMP4218 is tubular - what mortise entry handleset trim can I use instead?
The EMP4218 uses a tubular lock with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 5-1/2 inch center-to-center prep. If the door is prepped for a mortise lock body, look at the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim, offered in a single cylinder version (6542ENTR) and a double cylinder version (6542DBLC), both for 1-3/4 inch doors. Those are mortise trim sets, so they require a mortise pocket rather than a bored door.
15) What solid brass handleset alternatives are there to the Emtek EMP4218 if I want a traditional look without electronics?
The EMP4218 is a solid brass handleset in a contemporary knurled style. For solid brass mechanical entry handlesets in a more traditional profile, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover, 815871 St. Ann and 825871 Kingston, all solid brass entry function handlesets, plus the 810871 Montego for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Baldwin's Wesley handleset is also offered in entrance function with either the Alcott knob (180WYHXATK) or the Carnaby knob (180WYHXCYK) as interior trim.
16) I do not want to specify backset when ordering - is there an alternative to the Emtek EMP4218?
The EMP4218 ships with a 2-3/8 inch backset latch as standard and requires 2-3/4 inch to be specified if that is the prep. If you would rather not commit at order, the Sure-Loc handlesets ship with an adjustable backset: the Aspen AN507 single cylinder keyed entry, the Alta AT507 tubular, the Coral CR507 and the Madison MA507 keyed entry. All four are handleset function and adjust in the field to either bore.
17) Is there a key-free electronic handleset option instead of the keyed Emtek EMP4218?
The EMP4218 is keyed, supplied standard with a Schlage C keyway and available with a Weiser WR5 cylinder. If you want no key cylinder at all, the Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX pairs a key-free touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield passage handleset over Wi-Fi for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Assure Lock 2 key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Those use a passage handleset grip with the locking done entirely at the deadbolt.
18) What finishes does the Hercules Knurled EMPowered handleset come in?
Six: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26) and Satin Brass (US4). Each is offered with either the Schlage or the Weiser cylinder.
