Emtek 5207.FRL.RH.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Freestone privacy leverset fit a 1-3/4 inch door with standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep?
Yes. The Freestone privacy lever mounts in a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore and covers doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. If you order the STRETTO rosette, the prep changes: that one needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole door preparation for the thumbturn. Every other brass rosette drops into the standard prep.
2) Does the Emtek Freestone privacy set come with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset latch?
Backset is a required choice when you order the Freestone privacy set, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches. The standard latch ships 2-3/8, which suits most residential doors; specify 2-3/4 if your existing bore sits farther from the edge. Measure from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch bore before you order.
3) Do I need to specify handing on the Emtek Freestone lever?
Handing matters. The Freestone privacy leverset is ordered left hand or right hand, so stand outside the door and note which side the hinges are on before you order. Order a run of doors without checking each one and you'll get levers pointing the wrong way on half the openings.
4) Does the Emtek Freestone privacy set take a key?
No key, and no cylinder. It's a non-keyed privacy function: thumbturn inside, emergency release outside, the standard bed and bath setup. If you need the door keyed, a privacy set is the wrong function and you want an entrance or entry lever instead.
5) Is the Emtek Freestone lever thick enough for a 2 inch door?
Not at 2 inches. The Freestone's stated door thickness range is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. If your door is thicker, look at a lock rated for it, such as the Deltana 6201 Manchester lever entry at 1-3/8 to 2 inches or the Hager 2510 at 1-3/8 to 2 inches, keeping in mind those are entry and passage functions rather than privacy.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek Freestone privacy leverset if I want a decorative brass privacy lever from another brand?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the closest peer in the decorative category - it is a privacy/bed/bath lever set like the Freestone. The Freestone privacy set is a tubular, non-keyed privacy/bed/bath leverset in brass, ordered by rosette style across Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern, and by finish across Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel - Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). The Baldwin 5103 privacy is supplied with the 5048 rose, so the rose is fixed rather than selected.
7) I need the same Freestone lever look on a hall or closet door that does not lock. What do I order?
The Freestone privacy set is a privacy/bed/bath function, so it carries the thumbturn and is not the right pick for a hall or closet. For a non-locking opening in a decorative line, the Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage Lever with 5048 Rose is a passage/hall/closet lever, and the Bravura Miramar with round trim is a passage leverset in Grade 2 offered in US4 Satin Brass. Satin Brass US4 is also one of the Freestone finishes, which helps when the two need to sit on adjacent doors.
8) What comes in the box with the Emtek Freestone privacy leverset?
It's a complete set: both levers, the rosettes you choose, the latch, and the strike plate. The latch faceplate is available round corner or square corner, so it can match the existing mortise in the door edge without you chiseling a new one. Nothing else is needed to hang it on a properly bored door.
9) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek levers and do I need it?
CF stands for concealed fastener. Choose it and the rosettes mount with no exposed screws on the face of the rosette, and the set is supplied with the 28 degree latch. You can also add the 28 degree latch on its own without the concealed fastener rosettes, or skip both. The clean-face look is the reason most people take CF on a bedroom or bath door where the trim is on show.
10) What is a comparable brass privacy lever to the Emtek Freestone?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with the 5048 rose is the closest peer, same privacy bed and bath function in a decorative residential lever. If cost matters more than the trim, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set is a Grade 3 privacy lever covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range as the Freestone. What separates the Emtek is the solid brass substrate and the choice of six rosettes.
11) What is the difference between the Emtek Freestone privacy set and a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical privacy lock for a multi-family bath?
The Freestone is a residential brass tubular privacy set in an urban modern style, ordered by rosette and finish. A Grade 2 commercial option such as the Hager 2540 privacy cylindrical lock uses the Withnell lever and fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK02-TA privacy lock is Grade 1 with a fire rating for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Choose the Freestone where the unit interiors are being finished to a design standard and the graded locks where the bath door falls under a rated or high-traffic requirement.
12) Is there a lower-cost privacy lever alternative to the Emtek Freestone for a rental unit?
The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton Privacy Lever Set is a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Compared with the Freestone, which is a brass privacy set offered across seven finishes and six rosette styles with a concealed fastener option that hides rosette screws, the Breton is a single fixed trim design. Use the Breton where a plain builder-grade bedroom or bath lever is acceptable and the Freestone where the finish and rosette need to match the rest of the door hardware.
13) What do I use for a door that needs the Freestone lever but no working latch at all?
A dummy lever is the part for a fixed or inactive leaf, and the Freestone privacy set is not it - it is a privacy/bed/bath set supplied as a complete set with latch and strike plate. In the decorative range the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy comes handed, as a left hand version and a right hand version, both with the 5048 rose. On the commercial side, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed lever and the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is the Grade 2 medium duty version.
14) Which lever set looks like a substitute for the Emtek Freestone privacy set but is not?
Entry and entrance levers are the common mix-up. The Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead are all entry function levers for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle. Those take a key from the outside. The Freestone privacy set is non-keyed with a thumbturn arrangement for bed and bath openings, so an entry lever changes how the door is operated even though the trim looks similar.
15) Does any comparable privacy or passage lever handle a door thicker than the Freestone range?
The Freestone privacy set covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore. Where the leaf is thicker, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock takes 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch and is fire rated with non-handed levers, and the Dexter C1000 Series asylum function lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Both are passage or institutional functions rather than privacy, so confirm the function the opening needs before substituting.
16) Do I have to specify handing when substituting another brand for the Freestone privacy lever?
The Freestone privacy set is ordered as Left Hand or Right Hand, so the opening has to be handed at the time of order. Several commercial peers avoid that step: the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock and the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage lever are both non-handed designs. In the decorative range handing still applies - the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is sold as separate left hand and right hand items.
17) I need a matching passage lever for the hall doors, not privacy. Does Emtek Freestone work there?
The Freestone privacy set locks, so it's for bedrooms and baths. For a hall or closet door on the same job you want the passage version of the lever so the trim matches while the door stays unlatched from either side. If you're mixing brands, the Bravura Miramar passage leverset comes in US4 Satin Brass, which is one of the finishes the Freestone offers.
18) Can I order the Emtek Freestone lever with two different finishes, one per side?
Yes, split finish is an option on the Freestone set. You give the inside and outside finishes when you order. It's the fix for a door between two rooms with different trim schemes, so the hall side matches the hall and the bedroom side matches the bedroom.
19) Is there a keyless pushbutton lever I can use where the Freestone privacy set will not do?
The Freestone is a non-electronic, non-keyed mechanical privacy set. Where a code is wanted instead, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch, the Lockey 2835DC is the double combination version over the same thickness range, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. All are passage function, so they release rather than secure a bed or bath opening the way a privacy set does.
