Emtek 5308-P-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Providence knob sideplate lockset fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it only for 1-3/4?
It covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors. 1-3/4 inch is what ships as standard, so if your door is thicker than that you need to call out the actual thickness when you order (there's a door thickness field for exactly that). For a standard 1-3/8 inch interior slab, no special call-out is needed.
2) Can this Emtek entry knobset drop into an existing bored door prep?
Yes, if the door is already prepped standard: 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. That's the normal prep on residential doors, so a swap from a common tubular entry set is usually a direct fit. The sideplate is longer than a round rose, so it will cover the old rose footprint rather than expose it.
3) Can I key this Emtek lockset into my existing Weiser keys?
Yes. The set ships with a Schlage C keyway as standard, and a Weiser WR5 cylinder can be selected instead. The Weiser option is a straight cylinder substitution and it can be keyed into an existing Weiser system, so your current keys keep working.
4) Is single cylinder the right choice, or do I need a double cylinder on a door with glass?
The Providence set is single cylinder: key outside, thumbturn inside. That's the usual choice and the one most codes want on an egress door. If you have glass within reach of the interior turn and your local code or insurer calls for a key on both sides, you want a double cylinder instead, such as the Omnia D12036AC double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset. Check local egress rules before going double.
5) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek Providence knob entry set if the door needs a lever instead of a knob?
The Emtek Providence single point lockset uses a knob as the handle. If the opening calls for a lever on a sideplate, the Omnia D12036A is a single cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass. Both are keyed single cylinder entry sets, so the interior side is a thumbturn; the difference is knob versus lever grip.
6) I need key access from both sides of a glass-panel entry door, not a thumbturn. What should I use instead of the Emtek Providence entry knob?
The Emtek Providence entry lockset is single cylinder, which means key outside and turn inside. For a door where you want a key required on both faces, the Omnia D12036AC is a double cylinder deadbolt lever lockset in solid brass with a sideplate design. Confirm local egress code before specifying double cylinder on a residential exit door.
7) What finishes does the Emtek Providence knob entry lockset come in, and can I mix inside and out?
Ten finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Nickel (US15), Pewter (US15A), Flat Black (US19), Polished Chrome (US26), Lifetime Polished Brass (US3), Unlacquered Brass (US3NL), Satin Brass (US4) and French Antique (US7). A split finish can be called out on the order if you want the exterior to match the door hardware outside and the interior to match the rest of the house.
8) Can I order several of these Emtek Providence entry sets keyed alike?
Yes. Keying is specified at the order: keyed different or keyed alike, and there's a keying-to-code field if your building already runs a key code you need matched. Useful when you're doing a front and a side entry on the same house, or a run of units that share a key.
9) What is the difference between the Annapolis and Modern Rectangular trim on the Emtek Providence knob set?
It's the shape of the sideplate behind the knob, not the lock itself. Annapolis (the 5308 series, e.g. 5308PUS15) is the traditional shaped plate; Modern Rectangular (the 5302 series, e.g. 5302PUS15) is a straight rectangle. Both carry the same Providence knob, same tubular entry function, same bore and backset requirements. Pick on looks and on what the rest of the openings in the house use.
10) Is this Emtek knob lockset rated for a commercial opening?
No. The Providence sideplate lockset is a residential-duty solid brass tubular set. For apartment corridors, offices or any high-traffic commercial door you want a commercial-grade cylindrical or mortise lock instead. It's a good fit for a house front door, a unit entry door inside a multi-family building, or a hospitality room where the look matters.
11) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek Providence knob set?
Not for the knob version. Handing is required on Emtek leversets, since a lever has to point the right way. A knob is symmetrical, so the Providence knob set works either hand. You still need the correct backset and door thickness.
12) What do I put on the inactive leaf of a double door to match an Emtek Providence entry set?
The Emtek Providence lockset is an entry function with a working latch, so it is not the right part for a non-operating leaf. A dummy trim is what that leaf takes. The Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass double dummy deadbolt lever lockset with plates at 5-1/2 inch center to center, which mounts as pull trim only with no latch or bore hardware.
13) Is the Omnia D12036PD a cheaper substitute for the Emtek Providence entry knob set?
No. The D12036PD is a double dummy lever lockset, meaning both sides are fixed trim with no latch and no cylinder. The Emtek Providence set is a keyed single cylinder entry lockset with a tubular latch. They look similar on the door face but only the Emtek unit will secure or latch an opening.
14) For a commercial corridor door, is the Emtek Providence knob lockset the right choice?
The Emtek Providence tubular single point lockset is designated for residential use, so it is best suited to homes, multi-family unit doors and light-duty interior applications rather than graded commercial openings. For a commercial corridor requiring an ANSI grade, specify a commercial cylindrical lockset instead.
15) I want a matching non-locking set for an interior or closet door. What pairs with this Emtek entry lockset?
The Providence entry set is keyed, so it isn't the one for a closet or a door that never locks. For a non-functioning match on a fixed or inactive leaf, the Omnia D12036PD is a solid brass dummy lockset with plates on 5-1/2 inch centers. Within Emtek, look for the same Providence knob in a passage or privacy version to keep the look consistent across the house.
16) Is the Emtek Providence lockset an electronic or smart lock?
No, it's fully mechanical. Key outside, thumbturn inside, no keypad, no battery, no wiring. If you're standardizing a rental portfolio on code-entry hardware this isn't that product.
