Emtek 7208.AR.RH.FB – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek Aurora privacy lever fit a standard pre-drilled interior door?
Yes, as long as the door has the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore. The Aurora sandcast bronze privacy set drops into that prep and works on doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, with the included latch adjustable to either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. One exception on prep: the STRETTO rosette needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole door preparation for the thumbturn.
2) Which backset do I order for the Emtek Aurora lever, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
Backset is a required selection, and both 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches are offered. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore hole: 2-3/8 inches is typical on residential interior doors, 2-3/4 inches on thicker or commercial-prep doors. The standard latch supplied is for 2-3/8 inches, so call out 2-3/4 inches if that is what your door is bored for.
3) Does the Aurora privacy lever need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
Yes. The Aurora lever is handed, sold as Left Hand (LH) or Right Hand (RH). Stand on the outside of the door (the side it swings away from): if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, on your right it is right hand. Ordering the wrong hand gives you a lever pointing the wrong way, so settle the handing before you place the order.
4) What is included with the Emtek Aurora privacy set, and do I need to buy the rosette separately?
It ships as a complete set: levers for both sides, the latch, and the strike plate. The rosette is part of the order, not an extra purchase, and you choose from the #1, #2, #3, #4 or #6 sandcast bronze rosettes. Latch faceplate comes round corner or square corner to match your existing door mortise.
5) Can I use the Emtek Aurora lever on a commercial corridor or a fire rated door?
No. The Aurora sandcast bronze privacy set is a residential tubular lockset, not a commercial-grade cylindrical lock. For a commercial opening, look at Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical levers such as the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever, which fits 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors and is fire rated, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage lever for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. Those are the products specified for commercial traffic.
6) What is the closest decorative-brand equivalent to the Emtek Aurora sandcast bronze privacy lever?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the nearest decorative peer - a privacy/bed/bath lever on a rose, like the Aurora privacy set. The Aurora is a sandcast bronze collection lever offered in Flat Black Bronze, Medium Bronze, and Tumbled White Bronze with a choice of #1, #2, #3, #4, or #6 rosette, so it suits rustic bronze programs; the Baldwin 5103 is fixed to the 5048 rose design.
7) I need a privacy bath lever for a commercial corridor with an ANSI grade - what should I use instead of the Emtek Aurora?
The Aurora sandcast bronze privacy lever is a residential-duty tubular lockset, so for graded commercial privacy look at the Hager 2540 Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with Withnell lever, or the Arrow MK02-TA Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock, which uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever.
8) The door is a hall or closet that does not need a lock - what do I order instead of the Aurora privacy set?
Use a passage function lever. The Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage Lever with 5048 Rose is a decorative match in spirit; commercial-grade options include the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage lever, the Falcon B101 Grade 2 non-handed passage lever, and the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 passage lever. The Aurora set is privacy/bed/bath, which adds the thumbturn locking function you would not need there.
9) Can I use the Emtek Aurora privacy set on an exterior or keyed entry door?
No - the Aurora sandcast bronze lever is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath set. For keyed entry use a keyed lever such as the Deltana 6201 Manchester Lever Entry, which fits doors 1-3/8 to 2 inch, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway, or the Hager 2525 Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock.
10) What looks like a substitute for the Aurora privacy lever but is not?
Dummy trim. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy levers (left hand and right hand) and the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim look like the same lever on a rose, but they are surface-mounted trim with no latch and no locking. The Aurora privacy set is a complete working set including latch and strike plate with the thumbturn privacy function.
11) What is the difference between the standard latch, the 28 degree latch and the CF mechanism on the Emtek Aurora lever?
Three choices. The standard latch is the conventional tubular latch. The 28 Degree Rotation Latch reduces how far the lever has to travel to retract the bolt, a lighter, shorter throw of the handle. The CF Mechanism gives you rosettes with no exposed screws for a clean face, and it includes the 28 degree latch. If the look of visible rose screws matters on the job, order CF.
12) Is a privacy lever the right function for a bedroom or bathroom door, or do I need a keyed lock?
Privacy is the correct function for bed and bath. The Aurora privacy set is non-keyed: it locks from the inside with a thumbturn and has no key cylinder, so nobody carries a key for a bathroom. For a hall or closet door that never needs to lock, use a passage set instead; for an exterior or office door use a keyed entry function.
13) What finishes does the Emtek Aurora sandcast bronze lever come in, and can I mix finishes between the two sides?
Three sandcast bronze finishes: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB) and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). A split finish is available if you want a different finish inside versus outside, which is common when a bathroom interior has to match a different palette than the hall side. Because the body is sandcast bronze, expect the tonal variation and texture that casting produces rather than a uniform plated look.
14) What other decorative privacy levers could I use instead of the Emtek Aurora if I need a different look?
In the same decorative residential lane, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the closest peer, also a privacy function lever set. If budget rather than casting character is driving the job, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever is a Grade 3 set for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Neither is sandcast bronze, so if you are matching other Emtek sandcast bronze openings in the house, stay with the Aurora.
15) I have thicker doors than standard. Will the Emtek Aurora lever still work?
The Aurora lever set covers doors from 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches thick on a standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep, and there is a door thickness field on the order so you can state your actual thickness. Give the measured thickness when you order rather than assuming, since the spindle and screw lengths are set by it.
16) Can I match the Aurora lever to the same rosette style already on my other Emtek doors?
Yes. The Aurora lever can be ordered with any Sandcast Bronze rosette, and the rosette choices are #1, #2, #3, #4 and #6. That is how you keep a whole floor of doors visually consistent when you are adding or replacing one opening, pick the rosette number and finish already in use and specify the same latch style.
17) What is a lower-cost privacy lever alternative to the Emtek Aurora for bedrooms and baths?
The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy lever set is a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lever that fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch. The Emtek Aurora privacy set is a sandcast bronze lever with selectable rosette and bronze finishes; the Breton is a plated residential set without those options.
18) Is there a keyless pushbutton lever I can use instead of the Emtek Aurora on a door I want code-controlled?
The Aurora privacy set is a mechanical non-electronic lever. For code entry, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock fits doors 1-3/16 to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set fits 1-1/8 to 2 inch. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock if you want a battery-powered unit.
19) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Emtek Aurora privacy lever fit, or do I need something else?
The Aurora privacy set covers doors from 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch on a 2-1/8 inch bore standard prep, so a 2 inch door is within range. If you prefer a graded commercial lever at that thickness, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/4 to 2 inch, though both are passage rather than privacy.
20) For a bathroom in a school or healthcare facility, is the Emtek Aurora privacy lever the right choice?
The Aurora is a residential sandcast bronze privacy lever. For institutional restrooms, the Arrow MK02-TA privacy cylindrical lock carries a fire rating, and the Accentra 107S Schlage cylinder adapter kit is catalogued for apartment exit/public toilet applications on Yale hardware. The Dexter C1000 asylum function lock, which fits 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, covers utility and institutional openings.
21) I want a decorative lever in a rustic look but with a passage function to match the Aurora - what pairs with it?
Within a decorative program, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever on the 5048 rose and the Bravura Atlanta Grade 2 passage leverset with round trim are the styled passage counterparts. The Aurora privacy set itself is offered in Flat Black Bronze, Medium Bronze, and Tumbled White Bronze with left or right hand, so passage and privacy doors in the same suite would need the finish matched by hand at order time.
