Emtek EMTEK-R-BAR-STEM-DARK-WALNUT-HANDLE-PRIVACY – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek SELECT R-Bar dark walnut privacy lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The SELECT R-Bar privacy leverset covers doors from 1-3/8 inches through 1-3/4 inches, so standard older interior doors and modern 1-3/4 inch doors both work. It needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and the latch backset adjusts between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, which are the two common bored-door backsets.
2) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek SELECT walnut lever?
Yes, handing is required. The dark walnut handle is permanently affixed to the R-Bar stem, so the lever cannot be flipped in the field the way a reversible commercial lever can. Order left hand (LH) or right hand (RH) to match the door.
3) What comes in the box with the Emtek SELECT privacy leverset, and do I need to buy a latch separately?
It ships as a complete set: the levers, the latch, the strike plate and a dust box. The latch is a 28 degree rotation type, and the faceplate is available round corner or square corner to match the existing mortise in the door edge. Nothing else is needed for a standard bored door.
4) Which rosettes can I get with the Pewter, Matte White or Satin Rose Gold finishes?
Those three are a limited release and are restricted to the Disk, Square, Urban Modern and Quincy rosettes. They are not offered on the SELECT Tribeca handle. If you want Modern Rectangular, Watford or Wilshire rosettes, choose one of the other finishes: Flat Black (US19), French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15) or Unlacquered Brass (US3NL).
5) Can I use the Emtek SELECT walnut lever on an exterior or commercial door?
No. It is a residential privacy (bed and bath) set and the walnut handle is rated for interior use only, with a living finish that changes with age. For an exterior door you need a keyed entry function, and for commercial traffic a Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical lock such as the Hager 2540 privacy lever or the Arrow MK02-TA privacy lock is the right class of product.
6) Will this Emtek lever drop into a hole bored for a builder-grade privacy set like a Kwikset?
In most cases yes. Both work off a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The differences to check are the latch faceplate corner (round or square, both offered here) and handing, since the walnut handle is fixed to the stem and is not reversible.
7) I need the same lever look on a closet door that should not lock - what do I use instead of the Emtek privacy set?
The Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle set is a privacy function, so it has a bed/bath locking turn. For a closet or hall door that just latches, use a passage lever: the Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage Lever with 5048 rose on the decorative side, or the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever, a Grade 3 passage set for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch. Commercial passage options include the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage lever and the Falcon K101, a Grade 1 fire-rated passage lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
8) Can the Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut lever be used on a commercial corridor or classroom door?
No. The Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle privacy set is designated residential, and the walnut handle is for interior use only. For a commercial opening, choose a graded cylindrical lock: the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 classroom lever with clutching for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, the Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever with deadlocking latchbolt, or the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal-resistant fire-rated passage lever for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inch.
9) What should I order instead if the door needs a key, not just a privacy turn?
The Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle set is non-keyed, so it cannot take a cylinder. For a keyed lever on a residential-style door, the Deltana 6201 Manchester and 6431 Linstead are entry-function levers for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry lever. On the commercial side, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever comes with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
10) Does this Emtek lever take a key, and how does the privacy function lock?
Non-keyed. It is a tubular privacy lockset for bedrooms and bathrooms, meaning it locks from inside the room and releases with the emergency tool from the outside. There is no cylinder and no keyway to match to a master key system.
11) How far does the Emtek SELECT R-Bar lever stick out from the door face?
Projection is 2.5 inches. Worth checking where the door swings back against a wall, a tall baseboard, or where a second lever on an adjacent door could collide in a tight corner.
12) Can I mix the walnut lever with a different rosette shape than the ones shown as a set?
Yes. The R-Bar stem with the dark walnut handle can be ordered with any brass rosette, and seven shapes are offered: Disk, Modern Rectangular, Quincy, Square, Urban Modern, Watford and Wilshire. Rosette and stem share the same finish selection, so pick that finish to match the rest of the hardware on the opening.
13) What material is the Emtek SELECT R-Bar leverset, and will the walnut finish stay the same?
The stem and rosette are brass. The handle is dark walnut wood with a living finish, so it will darken and change character with use over time rather than staying uniform. If a property needs every door to look identical years out, an all-metal lever like the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever is the steadier choice.
14) I need matching passage and dummy levers for the rest of the doors. What pairs with this privacy set?
This particular set is the privacy (bed and bath) function only. For hall, closet and pantry doors you need the passage version of the same SELECT R-Bar walnut lever, and for closet or French door inactive leaves a half dummy. Within the comparable brands, Baldwin's Estate 5103 family shows the pattern: 5103 privacy, 5103 passage, and left and right hand half dummies, all on the same 5048 rose.
15) I need a matching non-functioning lever for a closet or pantry door - what pairs with the Emtek privacy lever?
The Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle privacy set is a working latching set with latch, strike plate and dust box. For a pull-only door, a dummy lever is the substitute. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with the 5048 rose is offered in left hand and right hand versions. Commercial dummy trims include the Accentra 455LN Augusta Grade 1 single dummy, the BEST 9K Series 1DT Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim, and the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever.
16) Is a privacy knob like the Arrow MK02-TA an equivalent to the Emtek R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut set?
They share the privacy/bed/bath function but they are not the same trim. The Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle set is a lever with a brass rosette, left or right handed, and residential in designation. The Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy/bed/bath cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob, fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Choose the Emtek if the opening calls for lever trim and ADA-style operation; choose the Arrow if a knob and a fire rating are what the spec asks for.
17) Will a keypad lever work in the same door prep as the Emtek Select privacy lever?
The Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle set is a non-electronic tubular lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. If you want keyless operation instead, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is ADA compliant and fits doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch with an adjustable backset, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock. Confirm bore and backset against the door before swapping.
18) For a multi-family unit where I need bath privacy plus a graded lock on the entry, what pairs with the Emtek R-Bar Stem lever?
Use the Emtek Select Brass R-Bar Stem Dark Walnut Handle privacy set on the interior bed and bath doors, where its non-keyed privacy function and left or right handing apply. For the unit entry, step to a graded keyed lever such as the Hager 2525 Grade 2 commercial entry lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, or the Falcon B511CP6D Grade 2 entry/office lever. If the entry needs a lever and deadbolt together, the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset with a deadbolt combo.
19) Can I order this Emtek lever with the rosette in one finish and the stem in another?
Yes, a split finish can be requested at the order stage along with the backset selection and door thickness. Add the split finish detail in the order notes so the factory builds it that way; otherwise the rosette and stem ship in the single finish you select.
