Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Faceted Lever - Passage Set

Backset is a required choice: 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. The latch ships standard for 2-3/8 inch, so if your existing prep is bored 2-3/4 inch from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch cross bore, you have to call out 2-3/4 inch on the order. Measure the existing hole before you buy, because a mismatched latch will not reach the strike.

Handing matters. The Faceted R-Bar lever is ordered Left Hand or Right Hand, so it is not a reversible lever you can flip on site. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, on your right it is right hand. Get it wrong and the lever points the wrong way on the door.

If the door is already bored 2-1/8 inch cross bore at a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard residential prep, the Faceted R-Bar drops in. That is the same prep a Kwikset 200 series passage lever uses on 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Two things to check: the new rosette has to cover the old one's footprint, and the strike mortise in the jamb has to match the round or square corner faceplate you pick.

Fire rated openings should be filled with hardware carried as fire rated. Among cylindrical passage levers, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock is fire rated and fits 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever is fire rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Kwikset 200DL-RCALFD Delta passage carries a round corner adjustable 20 minute UL latch with a round corner strike. The Emtek SELECT R-Bar Faceted set is a residential passage set, so on a rated assembly specify one of the rated locks instead.

A passage set has no locking function at all, so a bath or bedroom door needs a privacy lever. Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the decorative equivalent. On the commercial side, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Faceted lever is a residential passage set with a tubular latch, so for a commercial opening the direct swap is a graded cylindrical passage lever. The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick, and is fire rated. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three keep the same passage function - latch retracts from either side, no lock.

They look alike on the door and are not interchangeable. The Emtek SELECT R-Bar Faceted passage set is a working latch set - it includes the latch and strike plate and the lever retracts the latch from either side. A dummy is a fixed pull with no latch: Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered as a Left Hand half dummy and a Right Hand half dummy, BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 single dummy trim lever, BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim, and Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever. Use a dummy only on an inactive leaf or a door that latches by other means.

The Emtek SELECT R-Bar Faceted passage set is non-keyed, so a keyed opening needs a different function entirely. Dexter C1000 Series offers a Grade 1 keyed entry/office clutching lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and a Grade 1 keyed classroom lever in the same range. Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt. Hager 2580 with the Withnell lever is a Grade 2 storeroom lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Backset matters when cross-shopping - Cal-Royal AG03 classroom is a 2-3/4 inch backset while the Emtek latch is adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch.

The Emtek SELECT R-Bar Faceted set fits 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors with the standard latch, but selecting the Concealed Fastener (CF) mechanism narrows that to 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. If the CF look is not essential and the door is thicker, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Arrow GL01 with the Sierra lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lock for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.

It ships as a complete set: both levers with the rosette you select, the latch, and the strike plate. Choosing the Concealed Fastener mechanism also brings the 28 degree latch. Nothing else is needed for a door already bored 2-1/8 inch at the correct backset.

The Faceted lever on the R-Bar stem takes any of seven brass rosettes: Disk, Modern Rectangular, Quincy, Square, Urban Modern, Watford, and Wilshire. Finishes for the rosette and stem 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). There is also a split finish option if you want a different finish inside than out.

CF hides the mounting screws so the rosette face is clean, and it brings a 28 degree latch with it. The trade is door thickness: CF is built for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, while the standard latch build goes to 2-1/4 inches. On a thick door, take the standard mechanism. On a typical 1-3/4 inch interior door where the hardware is on show, CF is the better looking install.

Tubular, cylindrical bored. It goes into a round 2-1/8 inch cross bore with an edge bore for the latch, not a rectangular mortise pocket. If your doors are prepped for a mortise lock body, this will not fill that cutout and you need a mortise lockset instead.

Same function, different look: the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever on the 5048 rose is the traditional decorative equivalent. The Bravura Miramar in US4 satin brass is a Grade 2 passage leverset with round trim, and the Bravura Tampa carries square trim if you want the harder edge. For a plainer commercial face, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.

Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage Lever with 5048 Rose is the closest decorative alternative - same passage function on an interior door, supplied as a lever with a round rose. The Emtek SELECT R-Bar Faceted passage set is brass and offered with seven rosettes including Disk, Square, Quincy and Watford, so the choice between them comes down to whether the trim needs to be selected separately from the lever or comes as one fixed rose design.

For fleet standardization the graded cylindrical passage levers cover the same hall and closet doors in one repeatable part number. Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet lever in the 5300 Series and Accentra 4601LN is a Grade 2 passage lever with Augusta trim in the 4600 Series, so the same lever design is available in two series. Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lever with a non-handed design, and Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology. Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever with the Withnell design for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Emtek Faceted set is handed - it is ordered Left Hand or Right Hand - while the non-handed Falcon levers reduce the number of part numbers carried.

For interior hall and closet doors in a residential setting, Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and Kwikset 200DL Delta is a reversible passage lever for interior hall and closet doors supplied with an adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike. Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. Bravura offers Grade 2 passage leversets in several lever styles - Miramar with round trim in US4 satin brass, Atlanta and Orlando with round trim, and Tampa with square trim. The Emtek set differs in that the lever, stem and rosette finish are specified separately across seven finishes including Unlacquered Brass and Oil Rubbed Bronze.

A mechanical keypad lever changes the door from free passage to code-controlled entry while keeping a lever throw. Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the 2835DC adds double combination in the same thickness range. Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination and passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, with the 1150S offering an adjustable backset. Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock. The Emtek Faceted set is non-electronic and non-keyed, so these are a function change, not a trim swap.

Among the passage-function cylindrical levers, Design Hardware X75 is Grade 1 and the J75 is Grade 2, both flat lever passage locksets for 1-3/4 inch doors, which makes them a clean pair for seeing the grade step within one product family. Falcon splits the same way - the B101 is Grade 2 medium duty and the T101 is Grade 1 heavy duty, both passage. BEST does the same on dummy trim, 7KC Series at Grade 2 medium duty and 9K Series at Grade 1 heavy duty. The Emtek SELECT R-Bar Faceted set is a brass residential passage set, specified by lever, stem, rosette and finish rather than by duty grade.

Yes, and that is the point of the SELECT system. The Faceted lever head sits on the R-Bar stem, and you pick the rosette and finish separately, so you can run one lever design across passage doors in a single finish while varying the rosette shape by room if you want. The body is brass throughout. Keep the backset consistent across the openings and the ordering stays simple.
