Emtek EMP24212-US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What door thickness does the Emtek Melrose handleset accommodate?
Standard door thickness is 1-3/8" to 1-3/4". Verify your door thickness before installation. Extended spindles available for thicker doors.
2) How do I determine the correct handing for this handleset?
Stand outside the door. If hinges are on the right, order right-hand. If hinges are on the left, order left-hand. Specify handing when ordering.
3) What is the backset measurement for the Melrose handleset?
Standard backset is 2-3/8". Some models accommodate both 2-3/8" and 2-3/4" backsets. Check existing door preparation before ordering.
4) Does this handleset meet commercial building codes?
Verify grade rating and ADA compliance requirements with your local building official. Emtek residential grade handlesets may not meet all commercial applications.
5) What finish options are available for the Melrose series?
Multiple finishes available including brass, bronze, and modern options. Check current Emtek finish availability as options may vary by model.
6) Can I rekey the cylinder to match existing keys?
Yes, single cylinder can be rekeyed by a locksmith. Bring existing key and new handleset to locksmith for rekeying service.
7) What tools are needed for installation?
Standard installation requires drill, hole saw bits (2-1/8" and 1" diameter), chisel, screwdriver, and measuring tape. Follow manufacturer template exactly.
8) How do I adjust the latch if the door doesn't close properly?
Check strike plate alignment first. Adjust strike plate position or deepen mortise as needed. Verify door sag and hinge condition.
9) Are replacement parts available for this handleset?
Emtek offers replacement cylinders, latches, and hardware components. Contact manufacturer with model number for specific part availability and compatibility.
10) What's the difference between tubular and mortise lock preparation?
Tubular uses standard cylindrical holes (2-1/8" face bore, 1" edge bore). Mortise requires rectangular pocket cut into door edge. This model uses tubular preparation.
11) Can this handleset be used on exterior doors?
Yes, designed for exterior entrance applications. Ensure proper weatherization around door frame. Consider climate exposure when selecting finish.
12) How does this compare to other Emtek handleset series?
