Emtek EMP28426-US15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek EMP8426 Urban Modern deadbolt fit my door thickness?
The Urban Modern EMPowered deadbolt is prepped for a standard 1-3/4 inch door, and the single cylinder ships with an extension collar for thin doors, covering 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inch doors. The EMPowered upgrade itself will work on doors up to 2-1/4 inches thick, but specify a thicker door when ordering so the correct parts come with it.
2) What backset and bore does this Emtek deadbolt need in the door?
Standard prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore. The latch supplied as standard is for a 2-3/8 inch backset, and a 2-3/4 inch backset latch is available if your existing bore is set back farther. Both are the two common residential backsets, so measure from the door edge to the center of the cross bore before ordering.
3) Can I key this Emtek deadbolt into my existing Kwikset or Weiser keys instead of Schlage?
Yes. The Urban Modern deadbolt is supplied with a Schlage C keyway as standard, and a Weiser WR5 keyway cylinder is offered in every finish, with no upcharge for the substitution. The Weiser cylinder can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Order by adding "W" to the front of the product code.
4) Is this Emtek deadbolt rated for commercial use?
It is a residential product. The Urban Modern EMPowered deadbolt is a tubular deadbolt built for homes, not an ANSI Grade 1 commercial deadlock. For a commercial opening look at a Grade 1 unit such as the Accentra D111 single cylinder deadbolt with 2-3/8 inch backset, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 cylindrical deadlock (1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors), or the Dexter DB1000 Series single cylinder (1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors).
5) Do I have to re-drill the door to install this Emtek deadbolt?
Not if the existing hole follows normal residential deadbolt prep. The Urban Modern deadbolt uses standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore, which is what most tubular deadbolts already in a door are drilled for. Confirm the backset is 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches and order the matching latch.
6) What is a straight mechanical equivalent to the Emtek EMP8426 Urban Modern single cylinder deadbolt in a contemporary square trim?
For the same cylinder x thumbturn function in contemporary trim without electronics, the Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt with cylinder x thumbturn operation, and the Baldwin Reserve Contemporary Square deadbolt covers the same square look in a double cylinder function. The EMP8426 differs in that it is an electronic EMPowered deadbolt in solid brass with a Schlage C keyway cylinder and thumbturn.
7) I need an electronic deadbolt but the Emtek EMP8426 is residential only - what commercial electronic deadbolts are there?
The EMP8426 EMPowered deadbolt is classified for residential use. For commercial and multi-housing openings, the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override, the Dormakaba Nova-D is an RFID multihousing smart electronic deadbolt, and the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt. The DynaLock 1300 Series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt for access-control-driven openings.
8) My door is thicker than 2 inches - what deadbolt works if the Emtek EMP8426 does not?
The EMP8426 lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. For a thicker door, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. If the door is a standard 1-3/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin DL3211 and the Design Hardware D1 Series Grade 1 double cylinder deadbolt are both specified at 1-3/4 inch.
9) Which single cylinder deadbolts also use the Schlage C keyway so I can key them into the same system as the Emtek EMP8426?
The EMP8426 ships with a Schlage C keyway cylinder as standard, with a Weiser WR5 cylinder available as a substitution. Among other single cylinder deadbolts, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway, the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder. Dormakaba's D900 small case mortise deadbolts are also offered with SC keyways.
10) What is a simpler non-electronic single cylinder deadbolt if I do not need the EMPowered keypad?
The EMP8426 is an EMPowered electronic deadbolt. For a purely mechanical cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt, the Dexter DB1000 Series single cylinder is Grade 1 and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, the Dexter DB2000 Series single cylinder is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) For a school or institutional door needing a Grade 1 deadbolt, what should I specify instead of the Emtek EMP8426?
The EMP8426 is a residential EMPowered deadbolt. For institutional openings, the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with adjustable backset, the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder and is fire rated, and the Cal-Royal CRB800 is a heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch.
12) I need an interchangeable core deadbolt for a master keyed system - what is the alternative to the Emtek EMP8426?
The EMP8426 uses a fixed Schlage C or Weiser WR5 cylinder. For small format interchangeable core, the Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep shipped less core, the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with interchangeable core prep on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Delaney LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt.
13) Does the EMP8426 deadbolt need to be ordered left or right hand?
No handing. The Urban Modern deadbolt is non-handed, so one part number covers both swings, which is useful if you are buying for several openings at once.
14) What is the difference between the single cylinder version and a double cylinder deadbolt?
Single cylinder means key outside, thumbturn inside, so anyone in the room can retract the bolt by hand without a key. That is the EMP8426 configuration. A double cylinder needs a key on both sides, which is chosen for doors with adjacent glass but creates an egress problem if the inside key is not at hand. If you want key-both-sides in a contemporary trim, Baldwin's Reserve Double Cylinder Contemporary Square deadbolt is a double cylinder option.
15) Can I have several of these Emtek deadbolts keyed alike, or keyed to my existing key code?
Yes on both. Keying is selected at order: keyed different or keyed alike, at no charge, and there is a field for keying to a specific code if you are matching an existing system. Keyed alike is the usual choice when a house or unit has a front and back door on one key.
16) Is the BEST 8T tubular deadbolt tube an alternative to ordering the Emtek EMP8426?
No. The BEST 8T T Series item is a tubular deadbolt tube component, the bolt mechanism on its own. The EMP8426 is a complete EMPowered single cylinder deadbolt with brass cylinder, housing, collar, thumbturn and rosette, hardened steel bolt, heavy gauge steel understrike and a brass trim strike in the box. The Baldwin 8BR0618001 is likewise a deadbolt spacer rather than a lock.
17) I need a double cylinder deadbolt for a glass-panel door - what替 options replace the Emtek EMP8426?
The EMP8426 is a single cylinder deadbolt, keyed outside with a thumbturn inside. For key-both-sides, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter DB1000 Series double cylinder is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estates 8011 is a contemporary 1-5/8 inch double cylinder deadbolt.
18) Is the Codelocks CL200 a substitute for the Emtek EMP8426?
They install differently. The EMP8426 is a tubular deadbolt using standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. The Codelocks CL200 is a light duty surface deadbolt with key override, which mounts to the face of the door rather than through a bored tubular prep. The Codelocks CL160 is a light duty mortise latch with QuickCode function, also a different prep.
19) Which deadbolts have an adjustable backset if I am unsure whether my door is 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch?
The EMP8426 ships with a 2-3/8 inch backset latch as standard and a 2-3/4 inch latch must be specified. If you want one part that covers both, the Brinks Raleigh Series round single cylinder deadbolt and the Brinks Mendocino Series square single cylinder deadbolt both use a 4-way adjustable backset, and the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with adjustable backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
20) What deadbolt should I use on an exit door where no key is wanted on either side, instead of the Emtek EMP8426?
The EMP8426 is keyed with a Schlage C or Weiser cylinder outside and a thumbturn inside. For a non-keyed exit application, the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock with blank plate outside and thumbturn inside, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. If only the interior side is bored, the Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt.
21) What finishes does the Emtek Urban Modern EMPowered deadbolt come in?
Five: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19) and Polished Chrome (US26). All five are offered with either the Schlage C or the Weiser WR5 cylinder, so matching a building's existing trim does not limit your keyway choice.
