Emtek EMP28455-US15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek EMP8455 deadbolt fit my existing door prep?
It uses standard residential door prep: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, a 1 inch edge bore, and either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. If your current deadbolt was drilled to those numbers, the EMP8455 drops into the same holes. Door thickness range is 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and an extension collar for thin doors ships with the single cylinder version.
2) Can this Emtek EMPowered deadbolt be keyed into my existing Schlage or Weiser keys?
Both keyways are offered. The standard cylinder is Schlage C, and a Weiser WR5 cylinder is available as an ordering option at no upcharge, which lets it key into an existing Weiser system. On the order you also pick keyed different or keyed alike, and there is a field to supply a key code if you are matching an existing system.
3) I need a fire rated deadbolt instead of the Emtek EMP8455 - what are my options?
The EMP8455 is a residential electronic deadbolt in Emtek's EMPowered series. Where a fire rated opening is involved, the Hager 3115 Grade 2 single cylinder, Hager 3215 Grade 2 with 1 inch throw, Hager 3214 double cylinder, and Hager 3118 Grade 1 classroom deadbolt are all fire rated and cover 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Cal-Royal CRB800 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch.
4) What is a comparable single cylinder deadbolt to the Emtek EMP8455 if I need a Grade 1 rating?
The Emtek EMP8455 low profile deadbolt is a residential single cylinder tubular deadbolt, cylinder by thumbturn, with a solid brass housing and Schlage C keyway. If a Grade 1 rating is required on the opening, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, the Dexter DB1000-SCT is a Grade 1 cylinder by thumbturn deadbolt covering 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the Deltana CL200LM is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt. Note the EMP8455 accepts doors up to 2 inches thick with standard prep, which is thicker than the Accentra or Dexter ranges.
5) I want a plain mechanical deadbolt instead of an electronic one - what should I order?
The Emtek EMP8455 is an electronic deadbolt in the EMPowered series, so if you want a purely mechanical single cylinder deadbolt the substitutes are straightforward: the Dexter DB2000-SCT is a Grade 2 cylinder by thumbturn deadbolt for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Arrow DBX61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt, and the Cal-Royal CB160 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a tamper-resistant cylinder guard. For a lighter-duty residential look, the Cal-Royal ED500 is Grade 3 with an adjustable backset covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) Which other electronic deadbolts compare to the Emtek EMPowered EMP8455?
The EMP8455 is an electronic tubular deadbolt in Emtek's EMPowered series, single cylinder with a brass thumbturn and Schlage C keyway. Other electronic deadbolts include the Delaney KP400, a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote; the Codelocks CL2200, a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel; the Codelocks CL2210 electronic mortise deadbolt; and for multihousing RFID credentials, the Dormakaba Nova-D and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D, which adds BLE and electronic lock override. The Codelocks units are surface or mortise mounted rather than standard tubular bore prep like the EMP8455.
7) The Emtek EMP8455 is single cylinder - what do I use on a door with glass nearby that needs a key both sides?
The EMP8455 is a single cylinder deadbolt, keyed outside with a thumbturn inside. Where a key is required on both faces, double cylinder options include the Dexter DB1000-DCT, Grade 1 for 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors; the Dexter DB2000-DCT, Grade 2 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors; the Design Hardware D1 Series, Grade 1 extra heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors; the Deltana 7312KA2, Grade 3 for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors; and the Baldwin Reserve double cylinder contemporary round and square deadbolts. Confirm local egress code before specifying double cylinder.
8) Is there an alternative to the Emtek EMP8455 that also uses the Schlage C keyway?
Yes. The EMP8455 ships standard with a Schlage C keyway, with a Weiser WR5 cylinder available as a no-upcharge substitution. Among mechanical alternatives keyed the same way, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder by thumbturn deadbolt with Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Hager 3215 is a single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with Schlage C keyway and a 6-pin cylinder. All three are fire rated. Keeping the keyway consistent lets them key into the same system as the EMP8455.
9) Is there a deadbolt like the Emtek EMP8455 that takes an interchangeable core for a master keyed building?
The EMP8455 uses a fixed Schlage C cylinder, with Weiser WR5 available as a substitute, and both can be keyed alike or keyed to an existing code. If your building runs interchangeable cores instead, the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt prepped for an interchangeable core and supplied less cylinder with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep less core for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Delaney LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome US26D.
10) Do I need to know the handing of my door to order this Emtek deadbolt?
No. The EMP8455 is non-handed, so the same unit works on a left or right hand door. Order by finish, keyway, and backset only.
11) Is the Emtek EMP8455 solid brass or plated zinc?
Solid brass through the working parts: cylinder, housing, collar, thumbturn, and rosette. The bolt itself is hardened steel and it backs up to a heavy gauge steel understrike, with a brass trim strike included in the box.
12) Does the Emtek EMP8455 come with a strike, or do I need to buy one?
Strike hardware is in the box. Every one of these deadbolts ships with a brass trim strike, and a heavy gauge steel understrike sits behind it for the long screws into the jamb stud. Nothing else is required to finish the jamb side.
13) If I want key on both sides instead of a thumbturn, is the EMP8455 the right part?
No. The EMP8455 is single cylinder, key outside and thumbturn inside. For key on both sides, which is common on doors with glass nearby, look at a double cylinder deadbolt such as the Baldwin Reserve Double Cylinder Contemporary Round, the Dexter DB1000 Series Grade 1 double cylinder, or the Callan Model 210S.
14) Will the Emtek EMP8455 work on a 2-1/4 inch thick door, and if not what will?
The EMPowered version of the EMP8455 fits door thicknesses up to 2-1/4 inches, and the single cylinder deadbolt includes an extension collar for thin doors, with standard prep rated 1-3/8 to 2 inches. For heavy commercial doors beyond that, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covering 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, while the DL3211 and DL2211 in that family are specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. Those are cylinder by blank rather than the cylinder by thumbturn function of the EMP8455.
15) What looks like a substitute for the Emtek EMP8455 but will not actually replace it?
Several deadbolt-named items serve different purposes. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike, not a lock. The Baldwin 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer and the BEST 8T is a tubular deadbolt tube component, both parts rather than complete locks. The Arrow E60 is a non-keyed exit deadlock with a blank plate by thumbturn, so it has no outside key, and the Callan 205S is a one-sided half-bore deadbolt. The DynaLock 1300 is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt requiring power and a mortise pocket. The EMP8455 is a complete keyed single cylinder tubular deadbolt using standard door prep.
16) What is a good alternative to the Emtek EMP8455 if I want a square or contemporary trim shape instead?
The EMP8455 carries Emtek's American Classic styling with a low profile round brass rosette. For square or contemporary trim, the Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt and the 310RC Elite is the contemporary round version, both cylinder by thumbturn; the Bravura 910 series is a Grade 2 rectangle single cylinder deadbolt. The Brinks Mendocino E2402 is a contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset, and the Brinks Raleigh E2401 is the transitional round equivalent. Callan's 200S is a Grade 3 single cylinder square trim deadbolt.
17) What deadbolt should I specify instead of the Emtek EMP8455 for a school classroom door?
The EMP8455 is a residential single cylinder deadbolt. For classroom applications the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with an adjustable backset, and the Falcon D211 is the Grade 2 medium duty classroom function version with single cylinder operation. The Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
18) Is there an option with an easier-to-grip thumbturn than the Emtek EMP8455 for accessibility?
The EMP8455 uses a solid brass thumbturn on the interior in Emtek's low profile American Classic trim. If a larger ergonomic turn is wanted, the Cal-Royal LSD is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. It is a mechanical lock, so it does not provide the electronic operation of the EMPowered version.
19) What finishes does the Emtek EMP8455 low profile deadbolt come in?
Five: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), and Polished Chrome (US26). Each is offered with either the Schlage C or the Weiser WR5 cylinder, so you can match the other openings in the house without giving up your keyway.
20) Is this Emtek deadbolt electronic or purely mechanical?
It is part of Emtek's EMPowered line and is flagged as an electronic product, with the key cylinder outside and thumbturn inside as the mechanical side of the operation. Emtek publishes the EMPowered technical specifications, keypad dimensions and door thickness sheet, and the electronic keypad entry set installation guide, all of which cover setup and programming.
