Emtek EMP8996-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek EMP8996 Delaware sideplate lockset fit a standard pre-drilled door?
Yes, as long as the door has the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore. The Delaware 5-1/2 inch center-to-center sideplate lockset uses one standard 2-1/8 inch door prep, and the latch backset is adjustable between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches. Door thickness range is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, which covers both older interior doors and standard exterior doors.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek EMP8996 Delaware lockset?
Handing is required when you choose a lever for the inside trim. Right hand or left hand is a required selection on the order. Knob styles are non-handed in use, but the order still asks for the hand so the sideplate and latch are set up correctly for your opening.
3) Is the Emtek EMP8996 Delaware lockset single or double cylinder?
Single cylinder. It is an entry function tubular lockset, keyed from the outside with a thumbturn or inside trim operation on the interior side. If you have glass near the lock and your local code or insurer calls for a double cylinder, this is not the right configuration.
4) Can I key the Emtek Delaware sideplate locksets alike across several doors?
Yes. Keying is a required selection: keyed different or keyed alike. There is also a keying-to-code field if you need the locks cut to an existing key code so they work on the keys you already carry.
5) What is a non-electronic alternative to the Emtek EMP8996 Delaware sideplate lockset on a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center door prep?
The Emtek EMP8996 is an electronic, single cylinder keyed entry sideplate lockset in brass on a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center layout. If an electronic keypad is not wanted, the Omnia D12036A single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset is a solid brass sideplate set with a single cylinder function and a keyed mechanical cylinder instead of a keypad. Both use the same key-operated single cylinder arrangement, so the difference is the electronic credential on the Emtek versus purely mechanical key entry on the Omnia.
6) I need a key on both sides for a glass-panel door. Is the Emtek EMP8996 the right choice?
No. The Emtek EMP8996 EMPowered Delaware sideplate lockset is a single cylinder keyed entry set, meaning the outside is key or keypad operated and the inside turns without a key. For an opening where code and insurance allow a key required on both faces, the Omnia D12036AC is a double cylinder sideplate deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass, which takes a key from both sides. Confirm your local egress code before specifying double cylinder on any exit door.
7) What comes in the box with the Emtek Delaware sideplate keyed lockset?
It ships as a complete set: the knob or lever you selected, the latch, and the strike plate. The latch faceplate is available in round corner or square corner so it can match the existing mortise in the door edge. You supply nothing else for a standard install.
8) What else could I use instead of the Emtek Delaware 5-1/2 inch sideplate lockset?
Omnia makes comparable solid brass sideplate sets. The D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset, the closest equivalent in function. If you need keyed access from both sides, the D12036AC is the double cylinder version, which the Emtek Delaware does not offer since it is single cylinder only. For a non-functioning door such as an inactive leaf of a pair, the Omnia D12036PD is a double dummy set at the same 5-1/2 inch center to center.
9) Can I pick which knob or lever goes on the inside of the Emtek Delaware sideplate lock?
Yes, and it is a required choice. Any Emtek brass knob or lever style can be paired with it, from plain Round and Egg knobs through crystal options like Windsor and Georgetown, to levers such as Milano, Turino, Coventry and Rope. That is how you match the sideplate set to trim already hanging on the other doors.
10) What should I put on the inactive leaf of a double door to match an Emtek EMP8996 opening?
The EMP8996 is a working keyed entry set and is not intended for a non-latching leaf. For a fixed or inactive panel, the Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates on a 5-1/2 inch center-to-center layout, which is the same center-to-center dimension the EMP8996 uses, so the sideplate spacing lines up visually across the pair. The Omnia dummy has no latch or cylinder and mounts as surface trim.
11) Is the Omnia D12036A a direct swap for the Emtek EMP8996?
They fill the same role on a sideplate opening but are not identical. Both are single cylinder keyed brass sideplate lever sets. The Emtek EMP8996 is electronic, part of the EMPowered series, and is prepped for a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset on doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Omnia D12036A is a mechanical single cylinder set with no keypad. If you are replacing an Omnia with the Emtek, plan on the electronic prep and power requirements described in the Emtek keypad entry set installation guide.
12) Is the Emtek Delaware sideplate lockset meant for commercial or residential doors?
Residential. It is a solid brass tubular entry set in Emtek's American Classic styling, built for houses and light-duty residential openings rather than high-traffic commercial doors.
