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

1) Do I have to specify handing when I order the Emtek Luzern key-in lever?
Handing is required on the Luzern leverset, so you need to know which way the door swings before ordering. It's built left hand or right hand, and there's no field-reversible option. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it's a left hand lever, hinges on the right is right hand. Order the wrong one and the lever points up instead of down.
2) Will the Emtek Luzern entry lever fit a 2-3/8 inch backset door prep?
Yes, and that's the default. The Luzern ships with a 2-3/8 inch backset latch as standard; if your bore is drilled at 2-3/4 inch from the door edge to the center of the hole, specify 2-3/4 inch on the order instead. Both backsets are offered, so measure the existing prep before you pick.
3) Does the Emtek Luzern leverset work on a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Luzern is built for a 1-3/4 inch door as standard, which is the usual commercial and solid-core thickness. Thicker doors are handled by calling out the actual thickness when you order, so measure the door and state it rather than assuming the standard set will reach.
4) Can I get several Emtek Luzern locks keyed alike for one property?
Keying is selected on the order: keyed different or keyed alike, at no charge either way. If you're doing a house or a unit where the front, side, and garage entry doors should all take one key, choose keyed alike. There's also a keying-to-code field, so if your building already runs on a bitting code you can hand that over and have the cylinders cut to it rather than rekeying on site.
5) Is the Emtek Luzern lever rated for a commercial building or an office corridor?
The Luzern is a residential leverset in solid brass, meant for homes and light residential entry openings. For an office, corridor, or anything carrying commercial traffic, go to a graded cylindrical lock instead: the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever fitting 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Those are built and tested for the cycle counts a commercial door sees; the Luzern is not.
6) Which keyed lever can be keyed into an existing Kwikset or Weiser system the way the Luzern can?
The Luzern is offered with a Weiser WR5 keyway as well as the standard Schlage keyway, ordered by adding a W to the front of the product code, and there is no upcharge for that cylinder substitution. Among keyed lever alternatives, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever are built around a 6-pin Schlage C keyway, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS uses a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, so those follow the Schlage side rather than the Weiser side.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek Luzern keyed entry leverset if the door needs a commercial Grade 2 lever instead?
The Emtek Luzern is a residential brass entry leverset with a single cylinder and a tubular lock chassis. For a commercial-rated entry lever in the same keyed-outside configuration, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever with entry/office function. Both are cylindrical rather than the decorative brass rosette construction of the Luzern, so the trim appearance changes even though the door function does not.
8) What lever should be used on the interior doors of the same house when a key is not wanted?
The Luzern entry leverset is keyed with a single cylinder, so it is not the right part for a hall or closet door. Non-keyed levers for those openings include the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose, the Bravura Atlanta passage leverset in Grade 2, and the Callan Asheville passage leverset in Grade 3. For a bedroom or bath the Baldwin Estate 5103 is also offered in a privacy function.
9) Is the Luzern keyed leverset suitable for a classroom, storeroom, or institutional opening?
No. The Luzern is a residential entry leverset, keyed on the outside with a single cylinder. Institutional functions come from different products: the Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/4 inch backset, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt, the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with the Withnell lever, and the Dexter C1000 series covers classroom, classroom security, and asylum functions at Grade 1.
10) What does single cylinder mean on the Emtek Luzern entry lever, and is it right for a door with glass next to it?
Single cylinder means a key outside and a thumbturn or button inside. It's an entry function: the outside lever locks, the inside lever always retracts the latch for egress. If your door has glass in it or a sidelite within arm's reach of the lock, a single cylinder is the one someone can reach through and turn. For that opening you want a double cylinder deadbolt alongside, keyed both sides.
11) What rosette shapes does the Emtek Luzern lever come in, and can I mix finishes?
Seven rosettes back the Luzern lever: Classic Brass in #8, Rectangular, Regular, and Rope, plus Modern Brass in Disk, Rectangular, and Square. The Rope rosette is offered in a limited finish range. There's also a split finish option if you want the outside rose to match the exterior hardware and the inside to match what's on the rest of the interior doors, called out as a note on the order.
12) Will the Emtek Luzern lever match the unlacquered brass hardware I already have?
Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) is one of seven finishes on the Luzern, alongside Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Lifetime Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Brass (US4), and Satin Nickel (US15). Unlacquered brass has no clear coat, so it darkens and patinas with handling. If your existing unlacquered pieces have already aged, a new lever will start bright and take time to catch up.
13) Is the Emtek Luzern a tubular lock or a mortise lock?
Tubular, which means it goes into a standard cross-bore and edge bore rather than a pocket routed into the door edge. That's the same prep a typical residential knob or lever uses, so on a replacement job you're usually working with holes that already exist rather than cutting new ones.
14) I want a matching passage or privacy lever for the interior doors, not a keyed one. What pairs with an Emtek Luzern entry?
The Luzern here is the keyed entry version, so bedrooms and closets need a different function. Within a decorative brass line, the Baldwin Estate 5103 is available as a passage lever, a privacy lever, and left or right hand half dummy, all on the 5048 rose, so one lever design covers every door in the house. For a plainer round-rose look the Bravura Miramar passage leverset comes in US4 Satin Brass. Half dummies are the ones to use on inactive doors of a pair, where there's no latch to throw.
15) Is the Emtek Luzern lever electronic or keypad operated?
No, it's a mechanical key-in lever with a cylinder, no keypad and no electronics. If you want code entry on a rental unit or a shared door so you can change access without rekeying, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton lever needs no wiring or batteries and fits doors 1 3/16 to 2 inches thick, or the Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock.
16) Can I rekey an Emtek Luzern lever into a Schlage master key system already in the building?
The Luzern's standard cylinder is a Schlage keyway, so it runs on the same key blanks as the rest of a Schlage-keyed opening. Emtek will also cut it to a code you supply at no charge, which is the cleaner route for a property with an established keying schedule. The alternative is the Weiser WR5 cylinder if the building is on Weiser instead.
17) What is a decorative brass alternative to the Luzern lever in an entry function?
Deltana offers several entry-function levers in the same decorative vein: the 5851 Claremont, the 6201 Manchester, the 6411 Morant, and the 6431 Linstead. The Manchester, Morant, and Linstead each list a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, while the Luzern is built for a standard 1-3/4 inch door with thicker doors specified at order. The Luzern also carries handing and a choice of seven rosette styles, which the Deltana levers are not described with.
18) What keyed entry lever works instead of the Luzern when the door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch?
The Luzern is built to a standard 1-3/4 inch door thickness, with a thicker door called out when ordering. Where a published wider range is wanted up front, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Hager 2525 Grade 2 entry lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
19) What is the difference between the Luzern keyed leverset and a keypad or keyless lever?
The Luzern is a mechanical, non-electronic leverset keyed to either a Schlage keyway or a Weiser WR5 keyway, so entry is by key. Keyless alternatives operate on a code instead: the Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock at Grade 2, while the Lockey 2835 and 2835DC are mechanical pushbutton lever locks in a passage function covering 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Lockey units are passage function, so they do not provide the keyed outside control the Luzern does.
20) Can a dummy lever be used to match the Luzern on a closet or inactive door?
The Luzern is a keyed entry leverset with a working latch, not a dummy. Dummy trim for inactive doors is a separate part: the Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered as a left hand and a right hand half dummy lever with the 5048 rose, the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, and the BEST 9K series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed lever. Handing matters on the half dummy the same way it does on the Luzern, which requires handing at order.
21) For a keyed entry lever on a high traffic multi-family corridor, what should be used in place of the Luzern?
The Luzern is a residential brass leverset. For heavier traffic, the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is Grade 1 with a clutching keyed chassis for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever that carries a fire rating for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors in a passage function, and the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The CL3110 and K101 are non-keyed passage, so they suit the corridor side rather than the keyed unit entry.
22) Does exit device lever trim replace a keyed entry leverset like the Luzern?
No. The Luzern is a complete bored leverset with its own latch and cylinder. The Corbin Russwin 585F715 is a Grade 1 lock lever for the ED8000 pushpad exit device and the CL3300 cylindrical lock series, and the Imperial USA ED-EL500HD is a heavy duty escutcheon lever trim in an entry function. Both are trim that mounts to an existing device or chassis, not a standalone lockset for a bored door prep.
23) What keyed entry lever is the simpler option when the decorative brass rosette is not needed?
The Luzern is a contemporary brass leverset with seven rosette styles and seven finishes. Where plainer keyed entry hardware is enough, the Master Lock BC series is a Grade 3 return style keyed entry lockset, the Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset, and the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied as a deadbolt combination for openings that also need a deadbolt.
24) What is the Emtek Luzern lever made of?
Solid brass, both the lever and the rosette, from Emtek's Brass collection. Brass takes plated and living finishes well, which is why the range runs from Flat Black through to Unlacquered Brass on the same casting.
25) Is a knob lockset an acceptable substitute for the Luzern lever?
The Luzern uses a lever handle, which matters where lever operation is required. Knob products in the same chassis family include the Arrow HK11-BB turn-pushbutton entrance lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Arrow MK02-TA privacy lock with a Tudor knob, which is non-keyed. Swapping to a knob changes the operation, and the MK02-TA changes the function from keyed entry to privacy as well.
