Emtek EMP24811-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What door thickness does the Emtek EMPowered EMP4811 handleset fit?
The EMP4811 EMPowered handleset covers 1-3/8 inch through 2-1/4 inch doors, so it handles standard residential slabs as well as thick custom entry doors. Above 2-1/4 inches it will not work.
2) Will the Emtek EMP4811 drop into my existing door prep?
It uses the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center spacing between the handle grip and the deadbolt. If your existing entry set was a 5-1/2 inch CTC tubular handleset, the prep carries over. Backset is where people get caught out: the standard latch ships for a 2-3/8 inch backset, and you have to call out 2-3/4 inch if that is what the door is bored for.
3) Do I have to specify handing on this Emtek entrance handleset?
Handing is a required choice, right hand or left hand. It matters whenever you pick a lever for the interior trim, or if an interconnect device is specified. A knob inside is symmetrical, but the order still takes a hand.
4) What keyway does the Emtek EMPowered handleset come in, and can it be keyed into my existing system?
Schlage C is standard. Weiser WR5 is the other option at no cylinder upcharge, and a WR5 cylinder can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Keying is set at order: keyed different or keyed alike, and you can key to a specific code if you are matching a building.
5) Is the EMPowered handleset a smart lock, and how does it connect?
It is an electronic entry set. The EMPowered upgrade runs on 4 AA batteries and connects over Bluetooth through the Yale Access app, while still keeping a keyed cylinder on the exterior for mechanical override.
6) Is there a touchscreen handleset that still takes a key, like the Emtek EMPowered set?
Yes. The Emtek EMP4811 handleset is single cylinder keyed and is supplied in a Schlage C keyway or a Weiser WR5 keyway, with Bluetooth control through the Yale Access app. For a keyed touchscreen alternative, the Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock pairs a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield handleset, and the Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset uses a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt with SmartKey, a Halifax lever interior trim, RCAL latch and RCS strike. The Kwikset and the BYRD226CBARX are both cataloged for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Yale up to 2-1/4 inch.
7) What other Bluetooth handleset can I use if I want a keypad instead of a key cylinder?
The Emtek EMP4811 Arts & Crafts handleset is a keyed single cylinder entry set with Bluetooth that works with the Yale Access app. If you want keypad entry with no key cylinder, the Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX pairs an Assure key-free touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield passage handleset and trim and runs on Wi-Fi, and the BYRD410BLERX key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset also runs Wi-Fi. Both Yale Ridgefield sets cover thicker doors as well, with the BYRD256 CBARX rated 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch and the BYRD410BLERX rated 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, while the EMP4811 fits 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
8) I do not need the electronics - what is a straight mechanical single cylinder handleset instead?
The Emtek EMP4811 Arts & Crafts handleset is an electronic Bluetooth entry set in brass. For a purely mechanical single cylinder entry handleset, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is a Grade 2 keyed entry handleset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson knob is a single cylinder set for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder entry handleset in satin nickel for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. None of these carry app or Bluetooth control.
9) The door is 2 inches thick - which handlesets besides the Emtek EMPowered will fit?
The Emtek EMP4811 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness, so a 2 inch door is within range. Other sets rated to 2 inches or beyond include the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob at 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Deltana 810871 Montego at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Yale Ridgefield sets BYRD226CBARX and BYRD226NRRX at 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Handlesets listed only to 1-3/4 inch, such as the Kwikset 687AMD Amador or the Schlage F60 Addison, will not cover a 2 inch door.
10) Which alternative is a mortise set rather than a tubular one?
The Emtek EMP4811 is a tubular lock using a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with 5-1/2 inch center-to-center prep. If the opening is prepped for a mortise case instead, the Baldwin Estates 6542 Tremont entry mortise trim is the mortise counterpart, offered as single cylinder as BAL-6542ENTR and double cylinder as BAL-6542DBLC, both for 1-3/4 inch doors. Mortise trim goes onto a mortise pocket and is not interchangeable with a bored tubular prep.
11) What looks like a substitute for the Emtek EMP4811 but will not lock the door?
Watch for dummy handlesets. The Emtek EMP4811 is a keyed single cylinder entry set sold complete with latch and strike plate. The Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever and the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob are both dummy function and have no latch or cylinder, and the Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona with Seville lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed entry handleset. Also note the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview are exterior-only trim, so they do not include interior trim the way the EMP4811 does.
12) What comes in the box with the Emtek EMP4811, and what do I still have to pick?
Sold as a complete set with the latch and strike plate included. What you choose on the order: exterior finish, keyway, backset, handing, keying, and the interior knob or lever, which can be any Emtek brass knob or lever. The Arts and Crafts grip is the exterior style.
13) Single cylinder or double cylinder for a door with glass next to it?
The EMP4811 is single cylinder, key outside and a thumbturn or lever action inside. If a local code or an insurer wants a key on both sides next to sidelights, this is not the set for that. Baldwin's Estates 6542 Tremont is offered in a double cylinder entry mortise trim if you need the double-keyed configuration, though it is mortise trim rather than a tubular set and lists a 1-3/4 inch door thickness.
14) Is this Emtek handleset suitable for a commercial building entrance?
It is classified residential and it is a tubular bored lockset, not a mortise or Grade 1 commercial lock. For light commercial or multi-family where a Grade 2 bored handleset is acceptable, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is a Grade 2 keyed entry handleset fitting 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and Master Lock's HDLB Series single cylinder deadbolt handleset is also Grade 2.
15) I need a handleset for a 2 inch thick door but not an electronic one. What else works?
If you want mechanical only on a thicker slab, the Weslock 1411 Traditionale Colonial with Eleganti knob is a single cylinder keyed entry handleset listed for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest with Hudson knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches. Most standard handlesets, including the Kwikset Amador and Belleview, stop at 1-3/4 inches.
16) I need adjustable backset - is there an option that does not make me pick 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 up front?
The Emtek EMP4811 ships with a 2-3/8 inch backset latch as standard and 2-3/4 inch must be specified at order. If you would rather have one part that adjusts on site, the Sure-Loc handlesets are built with an adjustable backset: the Aspen SUR-AN507 single cylinder keyed entry, the Alta SUR-AT507 tubular handleset, the Coral SUR-CR507, and the Madison SUR-MA507 keyed entry handleset.
17) Which handleset should I spec if my facility requires a graded lock?
The Emtek EMP4811 Arts & Crafts EMPowered handleset is catalogued for residential use. If your spec calls out an ANSI grade, the Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D single cylinder deadbolt handleset in the HDLB series is Grade 2, the Schlage Residential F60 Addison with Accent lever is Grade 2, and the Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview handlesets are Grade 3.
18) What is the closest solid brass handleset if I want the Emtek look without the electronics?
The Emtek EMP4811 is a brass Arts & Crafts style handleset with the EMPowered electronic upgrade. For solid brass entry handlesets without electronics, Deltana offers the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann, and the 825871 Kingston, all solid brass entry function handlesets, and the 810871 Montego covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. These differ in escutcheon styling rather than function.
19) Is there an interconnected option instead of the Emtek EMPowered handleset?
The Emtek EMP4811 requires handing when an interconnect device is specified or when a lever is used on the inside. If you want a factory interconnected assembly instead of a handleset, the Schlage Residential JI18/19 pairs an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and a Torino lever in satin stainless steel, Grade 2, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. It is a lever-and-deadbolt set rather than a gripped handleset, so the exterior appearance is different.
20) Is there a smart handleset that works without Wi-Fi or a hub?
The Emtek EMP4811 EMPowered handleset runs on Bluetooth with the Yale Access app and takes 4 AA batteries. Another option without a Wi-Fi dependency is the Yale Real Living BYRD226NRRX Assure Lock standalone touchscreen deadbolt with Ridgefield handleset, which is catalogued as standalone function for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Yale is keypad-driven at the door, while the EMP4811 is a keyed set with phone control.
21) What finishes is the Emtek Arts and Crafts EMPowered handleset available in?
Four: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Satin Nickel (US15), Flat Black (US19), and Polished Chrome (US26). All four are offered with either the Schlage or the Weiser cylinder. The body is solid brass.
22) Can I order the Emtek EMP4811 with a lever inside instead of a knob?
Yes. The interior trim list runs to more than eighty Emtek brass knobs and levers, from the Arts and Crafts lever and Hammered lever through the Stuttgart, Athena and Luzern levers to crystal and marble knobs. Pick a lever and the order becomes handed, so get the swing right.
23) What is a comparable handleset with a knob interior trim rather than choosing from a long list?
The Emtek EMP4811 requires you to choose the inside knob or lever style as part of the order. If you would rather order a fixed pairing, the Baldwin Wesley handleset comes pre-paired as an entrance set with the Alcott knob under BAL-180WYHXATK or with the Carnaby knob under BAL-180WYHXCYK, and the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest ships with the Hudson knob as a single cylinder set for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
