Emtek 5209US19.LSUS19.MRWH.RH – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek White Marble L-Square privacy lever fit a 2-1/4 inch thick door?
With the standard latch, yes. The Emtek SELECT White Marble L-Square privacy leverset covers doors from 1-3/8 inches to 2-1/4 inches thick using a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore prep. If you order the Concealed Fastener (CF) mechanism instead, the range narrows to 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, and anything thicker has to be called out on the order. There is a text field for door thickness at checkout, so state the actual door thickness if it is outside the norm.
2) What backset does the Emtek SELECT privacy leverset come with, and can I use it on a 2-3/4 inch backset door?
Both backsets are available. The latch ships adjustable for 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch, and backset is a required selection when ordering, so pick 2-3/4 inches if that is what your door is bored for. Standard supply is 2-3/8 inches if you do not specify.
3) Does an Emtek privacy lever need to be handed?
Yes, handing is required on this one. You choose Left Hand or Right Hand when ordering the White Marble L-Square lever. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, hinges on your right is right hand. Levers with a marble handle are not field-reversible the way a plain cast lever often is, so get the hand right on the order.
4) What comes in the box with the Emtek White Marble lever privacy set?
It is sold as a complete set: both levers, the rosettes in the finish you pick, the latch and the strike plate. The latch faceplate is available round corner or square corner to match your existing door prep. Selecting the CF mechanism also brings a 28 degree latch. You are not buying trim only, and you do not need to source a separate latch.
5) Will this Emtek lever drop into a door already prepped for a standard tubular lockset?
In most cases yes. The standard prep is a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the common residential bore, so a door already carrying a tubular privacy set of that prep will take it. Match the latch faceplate corner style, round or square, to the existing mortise in the door edge and you avoid recutting. The one prep that differs is STRETTO, which needs a 1-1/4 inch bore and two holes.
6) What is the closest alternative to the Emtek SELECT L-Square White Marble privacy lever if I want a decorative brass privacy lever from another brand?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the nearest decorative counterpart. Both are privacy/bed/bath function levers intended for interior bedroom and bathroom doors. The difference is the handle itself: the Emtek set pairs an L-Square brass stem with a White Marble lever, while the Baldwin 5103 is an all-metal lever on a fixed 5048 rose. The Emtek set also lets you pick the rosette separately from seven shapes including Disk, Square, Quincy and Wilshire, where the Baldwin is supplied with its 5048 rose.
7) I need a bed and bath lock for a rental unit and do not need a stone handle. What is a simpler privacy lever?
For a straightforward privacy opening, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton Privacy Lever Set is a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lockset rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Emtek SELECT L-Square White Marble set is a residential brass privacy lever whose appeal is the marble handle and the choice of rosette and finish, so it is the pick when the look of the door matters as much as the function.
8) What is the Concealed Fastener (CF) option on Emtek leversets and should I pick it?
CF hides the mounting screws so no fasteners show on the rosette face, which is the usual choice on a visible interior opening where the client is paying attention to detail. The tradeoff is door thickness: CF covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, while the standard latch version goes up to 2-1/4 inches. CF also comes with the 28 degree latch. If your doors are thicker than 1-3/4 inches, take the standard latch.
9) Do I need a different door prep if I choose the STRETTO rosette with an Emtek privacy set?
Yes. STRETTO is the exception to the standard bore. It calls for a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore hole and a two-hole door preparation for the privacy thumbturn, not the usual single 2-1/8 inch cross bore. Plan the prep before you drill, because a door already bored 2-1/8 inches will not take it cleanly.
10) Is the Emtek SELECT privacy lever suitable for a commercial corridor or apartment turnover package?
It is built for residential use, and that is how it should be specified. Solid brass, non-keyed privacy function with a bed and bath thumbturn, tubular cylindrical chassis. For commercial traffic or anywhere you need an ANSI grade on the submittal, look at a Grade 1 or 2 cylindrical lock instead, such as the Falcon K101 Grade 1 or the Hager 2540 Grade 2 privacy lock with the Withnell lever. For a residential privacy opening at a lower price point in the same function, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy set is Grade 3.
11) Can I key this Emtek lever, or add a keyed entry version for the same door?
No. The White Marble L-Square privacy set is non-keyed by design. It locks from the inside with a thumbturn for a bedroom or bathroom and has no cylinder. If you need a keyed opening in a comparable decorative residential lever, the Baldwin Estate 5103 family runs the same design across passage, privacy and dummy, and Deltana's Manchester 6201 and Linstead 6431 are entry function levers covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
12) I ordered the Emtek White Marble privacy lever for the bedroom but the hall and closet doors do not need a lock. What matches?
Privacy is the locking bed and bath function, so for hall and closet doors you want a passage set instead. If you are matching a decorative program, the Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered in a passage version with the 5048 rose and in left and right hand half dummy versions for closet doors that only need a pull. Other non-locking options include the Bravura Tampa square trim passage leverset and the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset.
13) Is the Arrow MK02-TA a substitute for the Emtek White Marble privacy set?
Both are privacy/bed/bath function locks, but they are not interchangeable in appearance or prep. The Arrow MK02-TA is a knob set using the Tudor knob, non-keyed and fire rated, listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Emtek SELECT L-Square White Marble set is a lever with a brass stem, and the lever is ordered left or right hand. If the opening needs a lever for reach or accessibility reasons, the knob set is not a like-for-like swap.
14) The bathroom door needs code entry rather than a thumbturn. What should I use instead of the Emtek privacy lever?
The Emtek SELECT L-Square White Marble set is a non-keyed mechanical privacy lever with no code entry. For keyless code access on a lever, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is a passage-function unit listed for 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock.
15) What should I put on the entry door if I am using the Emtek White Marble privacy levers inside the house?
The Emtek SELECT L-Square White Marble set is non-keyed, so it does not serve an exterior entry door. Keyed entry levers in the same decorative vein include the Deltana 6201 Manchester and Deltana 6431 Linstead entry levers, both listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Deltana 5851 Claremont entry lever. If you want an entry and deadbolt together, the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset with a deadbolt combo.
16) For a hotel or multi-family standardization program, how does the Emtek White Marble privacy lever compare to the commercial privacy and passage options?
The Emtek SELECT L-Square White Marble set is a residential brass lever in privacy/bed/bath function, ordered handed and with your choice of finish across seven options including Flat Black, Satin Nickel and Unlacquered Brass, which makes it a design-driven choice for guest rooms. If the program is written to an ANSI grade, the commercial peers carry a stated grade: the Hager 2540 is Grade 2, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy is Grade 3, and for non-locking corridor and closet doors the Falcon K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty and fire rated.
17) What finishes does the Emtek White Marble lever come in, and can I mix finishes?
The rosette and stem are offered in 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 handle itself is White Marble, so the metal finish is what you are choosing. There is also an optional split finish field if you need one finish on the hall side and another on the room side, which comes up on bathrooms where the two rooms have different hardware schemes.
18) I need matching passage and dummy levers for the rest of the bedroom doors. Does Emtek do that in the same design?
The SELECT Series is built as a mix and match program, so the same L-Square stem and White Marble handle can be carried across the other openings with the rosette and finish held constant. Specify the function per door: privacy on the bed and bath doors, passage on closets and halls, dummy on inactive leaves. For reference, the comparable approach in another decorative line is Baldwin Estate 5103, which offers passage, privacy, and left and right hand half dummy on one design.
19) The closet door just needs a pull with no latch. Is there a dummy version to match the Emtek White Marble lever?
The Emtek SELECT L-Square White Marble set is a working privacy lockset supplied with latch and strike plate, not a dummy. For fixed trim with no latch, the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with the 5048 rose is offered in left hand and right hand, the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, and on the commercial side the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty while the BEST 9K 1DT single dummy trim is Grade 1 heavy duty.
