Emtek 5207.MC.RH.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Emtek Mercury privacy leverset fit a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door prep?
Yes. The Mercury privacy lever mounts in the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore used on most residential doors, so a door already prepped for a tubular lockset takes it without new boring. One exception: if you pick the STRETTO rosette, that rosette needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole door prep for the thumbturn privacy mechanism, which is not the standard single-bore prep.
2) What backset do I order for the Emtek Mercury privacy lever, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore. If that is 2-3/8 inches, take the standard latch; if your prep is 2-3/4 inches, you have to specify it, because 2-3/4 is not what ships by default. Backset is a required selection when ordering, so the latch arrives matched to your door. Residential doors are most often 2-3/8; 2-3/4 shows up more on exterior and some commercially built openings.
3) Is the Emtek Mercury lever handed, and how do I tell left from right?
It is handed. Order Left Hand or Right Hand. Stand on the outside of the door (the side it swings away from): if the hinges are on your left, it is left hand; hinges on the right, right hand. Getting this wrong puts the lever pointing the wrong way, so confirm it before you order rather than after.
4) Is a latch and strike included with the Emtek Mercury privacy set, or do I buy those separately?
Complete set. The Mercury privacy leverset ships with the latch and the strike plate, so nothing else is needed to hang it on a prepped door. You pick the latch type at order: standard latch, 28 degree rotation latch, or the CF mechanism, which gives rosettes with no exposed screws and comes with the 28 degree latch. Latch faceplates are available round corner or square corner to match the mortise already cut in your door edge.
5) What does privacy function mean on the Emtek Mercury lever, and does it take a key?
Privacy is the bed and bath function: a thumbturn on the inside locks it, and there is no key and no cylinder. The Mercury privacy set is non-keyed. If you need a key on that opening, this is the wrong function; a privacy lever is for bedrooms, bathrooms, and any room that needs to be closed off but not secured.
6) I need a bed and bath lever for a commercial corridor - is the Emtek Mercury the right choice?
The Emtek Mercury privacy leverset is classed as residential hardware. For a commercial privacy opening, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob that carries a fire rating. Both are knob or lever trims built to a BHMA grade; the Mercury is chosen for its brass finish range and rosette styling instead.
7) Can I key the Emtek Mercury lever, or do I need a different lock?
The Emtek Mercury lever in privacy form is non-keyed - it is a bed and bath thumbturn function, not a cylinder lock. If the opening needs a key, look to a keyed lever such as the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever, Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and 2-3/8 inch backset, or the Deltana Claremont 5851 and Manchester 6201 entry levers on the decorative side. The Mercury's 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch adjustable backset matches the prep those keyed levers use.
8) What is a comparable decorative privacy lever to the Emtek Mercury privacy leverset?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the closest decorative-brand equivalent: both are privacy/bed/bath function levers sold as residential decorative hardware. The Emtek Mercury privacy set is brass, contemporary in style, and can be ordered with any brass rosette, with six rosette shapes offered - Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square and Urban Modern - while the Baldwin 5103 privacy is supplied with the 5048 rose. Pick on rose shape and finish match to the rest of the house.
9) Can I match the Emtek Mercury lever to the rosettes on my other doors?
Yes, the Mercury lever can be ordered on any brass rosette in the line, with six shapes offered: Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern. That is how you keep one lever design consistent across a house or a building while matching the rose to trim already installed. Finishes run Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Lifetime Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL).
10) What is the Emtek Mercury lever made of, and how does that compare to a builder-grade privacy lever?
Solid brass, in Emtek's Brass collection, with a contemporary lever profile. That is the difference between it and a stamped builder-grade set like the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever, which is a Grade 3 privacy set for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Same function, very different feel and finish depth. Another brass alternative in the same decorative territory is the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever on the 5048 rose.
11) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek leversets and should I choose it?
CF gives you rosettes with no exposed screws, so the rose face is clean with no fasteners showing. It comes with the 28 degree rotation latch included, so you do not order that separately. Choose CF when the hardware is on display and you do not want visible screws; choose the standard latch if appearance is not the driver and you want the conventional setup.
12) What should I use on the hall and closet doors if the bedrooms get the Emtek Mercury privacy set?
Privacy is the wrong function for a hall or closet door - it locks. For non-locking openings in the same decorative class, the Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage Lever with 5048 Rose is a passage/hall/closet lever, and Bravura offers passage leversets in several trims including the Atlanta, Orlando and Miramar with round trim and the Tampa with square trim. For a closet door that needs no latch action at all, the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is offered in left hand and right hand versions.
13) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Emtek Mercury privacy lever work?
The Emtek Mercury privacy leverset is specified for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors in its published specification table. For a thicker slab, the Deltana Manchester 6201, Morant 6411 and Linstead 6431 entry levers cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and on the commercial side the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Confirm the slab thickness before ordering.
14) Is the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever a substitute for the Emtek Mercury privacy set?
They serve the same opening but are built differently. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek Mercury privacy set is a brass, contemporary-style lever offered in seven finishes including Unlacquered Brass, Polished Nickel Lifetime and Flat Black, with a choice of six rosettes and an optional CF mechanism that leaves no exposed screws on the rosette. The Mercury is specified left hand or right hand; the Breton is a stock passage-style residential set.
15) For a school or clinic restroom, should I spec the Emtek Mercury privacy lever?
For institutional restrooms, the graded cylindrical locks are the usual spec. The Dexter C1000 asylum function is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum lock with a Schlage C keyway, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant, fire rated passage lever for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. The Emtek Mercury privacy set is residential brass hardware intended for bedroom and bath doors.
16) I have doors of different thicknesses in one house. Can I order the Mercury privacy lever to suit each one?
Yes. Door thickness is an order field on the Mercury privacy set, so you state the actual thickness of the door the set is going on and the hardware is supplied to suit. That is worth doing when you are ordering a run of sets across a project rather than assuming every leaf is the same.
17) What is the difference between the Emtek Mercury privacy lever and a keypad lever like the Lockey 2835?
The Emtek Mercury privacy set is a mechanical, non-electronic thumbturn lever for bedroom and bathroom doors. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 2835DC adds double combination; the Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock at Grade 2. Those give code-controlled access; the Mercury gives privacy only, with no code or key.
