Emtek 5122.HL.RH.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I have to specify handing when ordering the Emtek Helios lever entry set?
Handing is required on the Helios keyed leverset. You order it Left Hand or Right Hand, so stand outside the door (the keyed side): if the hinges are on your left it's LH, on your right it's RH. Get it wrong and the lever points up instead of down when installed.
2) Can the Emtek Helios lever be keyed into my existing Weiser or Schlage keys?
Both keyways are offered. Schlage is the standard cylinder; the Weiser WR5 keyway is a no-upcharge substitution and can be keyed into an existing Weiser system, which is the usual reason a property manager picks it. Keyed alike and keyed different are both selectable, and there is a keying-to-code field if your locksmith has an existing bitting code for the building.
3) Is the Emtek Helios single cylinder lever keyed on both sides?
Single cylinder means key outside, thumbturn or free lever inside. It's an entry function tubular lockset, so the outside lever locks and unlocks by key and the inside always turns free. If you need a double cylinder (key both sides) for a door with glass beside it, this is not that lock.
4) What is the closest commercial-grade alternative to the Emtek Helios keyed entry leverset for a door that needs a rated cylindrical lock?
The Emtek Helios key-in leverset is a tubular lock built for residential use in brass. When an opening calls for a graded commercial cylindrical lock in an entry function instead, the Dexter C1000 Series entry/office lever is a Grade 1 cylindrical lock covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Both are keyed entry functions like the Helios, but they are specified as commercial hardware rather than decorative brass residential trim.
5) I want the same Helios lever look on a closet or hall door that does not need a key. What do I use?
The Helios leverset is a keyed single cylinder entry lock, so it is more lock than a closet or hall door needs. For a non-keyed passage lever, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is a decorative brass-collection passage lever, and the Bravura Miramar with round trim is a Grade 2 passage leverset offered in US4 satin brass, which matches the Satin Brass (US4) finish the Helios is offered in. Bravura also lists Atlanta and Orlando round-trim and Tampa square-trim passage leversets in Grade 2 if you want the trim shape to follow the rosette style.
6) Does the Helios leverset key into a Schlage system, and what if I need a different keyway?
The Helios leverset is supplied with a Schlage keyway as standard and can be ordered with a Weiser (WR5) keyway instead, which lets it key into an existing Weiser system with no upcharge for the cylinder substitution. If the door needs a Schlage C keyway on a commercial cylindrical lock instead, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is a Grade 2 lock with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever uses the same 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset.
7) The opening needs to lock from the outside at all times with the inside always free. Is the Helios the right lock?
No. The Helios is an entry function single cylinder lock, which is not the same as a storeroom lock. For an always-locked outside trim, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 with Withnell lever is a Grade 2 storeroom lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. For a classroom function keyed from the outside, the Dexter C1000 classroom lever is Grade 1 with a clutching lever.
8) The Helios is standard for a 1-3/4 inch door. What comparable levers cover thicker doors?
The Helios leverset is built for a standard 1-3/4 inch door thickness, with thicker doors specified at order. If the opening is thicker than that, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead entry levers each cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Falcon K101 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage lock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Only the Deltana levers among those are entry function like the Helios.
9) What rosette styles can I get with the Emtek Helios lever, and do I have to match the lever?
The rosette is picked separately from the lever, so the Helios lever pairs with seven trims: Modern Brass Disk, Modern Brass Rectangular, Modern Brass Square, Classic Brass #8, Classic Brass Rectangular, Classic Brass Regular, and Classic Brass Rope (the Rope comes in a reduced finish range). That's how you match the Helios to trim already on the other doors instead of replacing everything.
10) What finishes does the Emtek Helios brass lever come in, and can I mix them?
Seven finishes: Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). A split finish is also orderable if you want one finish on the exterior face and a different one inside, which is common when the entry door faces a painted exterior and a different interior palette.
11) I want the Helios look but on a bedroom or closet door with no key. What do I order?
The Helios keyed leverset is entry function only, so for non-keyed openings in the same house you would order a passage or privacy set. Among the residential-style levers ZenSupply carries, the Baldwin Estate 5103 comes in passage, privacy, and left- and right-hand half dummy versions with the 5048 rose, which covers the interior doors and the closet dummy in one family.
12) Can I order several Emtek Helios entry levers keyed alike for one building?
Keyed alike is a standard option, so multiple Helios sets can run on one key across a house or a unit. Choose Keyed Alike rather than Keyed Different at order, and if the building already runs a bitting code, enter it in the keying-to-code field. On a Weiser system, spec the WR5 keyway so the new sets fall into the keys already issued.
13) What is a keyless alternative to a Helios keyed entry lever for a door where I do not want to issue keys?
The Helios is keyed and offers keyed different or keyed alike ordering, so every user carries a key. If you would rather issue a code, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors with a double combination version available. For an electronic keypad lever, the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock.
14) What do I put on the bathroom and bedroom doors to match a Helios entry lever on the front door?
The Helios is an entry function only, so bed and bath openings need a separate privacy lock. The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose keeps a decorative rose-mounted lever profile, and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy leverset is a Grade 3 privacy lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a heavier privacy lever, the Hager 2540 with Withnell lever is Grade 2 across 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
15) The Helios lever is handed. What is a comparable lever that is not handed?
Handing is required when ordering a Helios lever, which is offered Left Hand (LH) and Right Hand (RH). If you would rather not track handing across a run of doors, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design and the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 passage lock with non-handed levers, fire rated and covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. Note that both are passage function, so they do not key.
16) Can I use a Helios lever as a dummy on an inactive leaf?
The Helios is a keyed entry leverset, not a dummy trim, so it is not the part for an inactive leaf or a false door. For a decorative half dummy, the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose is offered left hand and right hand as separate parts. For heavier commercial dummy trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim; the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy in the 5400 Series.
17) What is a decorative entry lever alternative to the Emtek Helios if I want a different lever shape?
The Helios is a contemporary brass lever offered with seven rosette choices including Modern Brass Disk, Rectangular and Square and Classic Brass #8, Regular, Rectangular and Rope. For a different decorative entry lever, the Deltana Claremont 5851, Manchester 6201, Morant 6411 and Linstead 6431 are all entry function levers, each its own lever series, and the Deltana entry levers other than the Claremont cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Choose on lever profile and rose shape, since all are entry function.
18) Will a Helios entry leverset work on a high traffic institutional or utility door?
The Helios is a residential tubular leverset in brass, so a high traffic institutional opening is better served by a graded cylindrical lock. The Dexter C1000 asylum lock is Grade 1 in an asylum, institution and utility function for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty asylum lock with a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, and the Dexter C1000 classroom security lever is Grade 1 with a clutching lever. Clutching and asylum functions are specified for openings where the Helios entry function would not apply.
19) I need an entry lever and a deadbolt on the same door. Does the Helios include one?
The Helios is a single cylinder key-in leverset, which is the lever lock alone and not a lever plus deadbolt combination. If you want the two supplied together, the Callan Bennett CLN-BN3001R is a Grade 3 entrance leverset with a deadbolt combo. For an entry lever on its own in a graded commercial lock, the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty entry/office cylindrical lever and the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
20) Are the Kwikset and Callan lever sets direct substitutes for an Emtek Helios keyed entry lever?
They are not straight equivalents. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton and the Callan Asheville CLN-AH5011 are passage function levers, Grade 3 and Grade 3 respectively, so neither keys; the Kwikset 200DL Delta is likewise a passage door lock. The Helios is a keyed single cylinder entry lever in brass with a choice of Schlage or Weiser keyway. For a keyed Grade 3 lever the Master Lock RL01 BC Series is a keyed entry lockset with a return style lever, and the Callan Artino CLN-360201 is a Grade 3 entrance leverset.
21) The Helios is ordered in a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. Which comparable levers match those backsets?
The Helios ships standard for a 2-3/8 inch backset with 2-3/4 inch available, so the backset is set at order. Among comparable keyed levers, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is listed on a 2-3/8 inch backset and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever on a 2-3/4 inch backset, so each is fixed to one of the two. The Lockey 1150S mechanical keypad lever set has an adjustable backset and covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors if you want one part to cover either prep.
22) Is a Helios lever an option for trim on an exit device or an electrified opening?
No. The Helios is a non-electronic tubular key-in leverset for a bored door prep. Lever trim for an exit device is a different part, such as the Corbin Russwin 585F715 Grade 1 lock lever for the ED8000 pushpad exit device, or the Imperial USA ED-EL500HD heavy duty escutcheon lever trim in an entry function. For an electrified cylindrical lever, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 is a Grade 1 fail safe lever at 12VAC/DC for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
23) Is the Emtek Helios leverset solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass, both as the material and the substrate, from Emtek's Brass collection. That matters for Unlacquered Brass in particular, which is a living finish over solid brass and will patina with handling rather than staying bright.
