Emtek 5209US19.RAUS19.SK.RH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek SELECT R-Bar Straight Knurled privacy lever fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a standard 2-1/8 inch bore?
Yes. The R-Bar Straight Knurled privacy set drops into standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, and it covers doors from 1-3/8 up to 2-1/4 inches thick. One catch: if you pick the Concealed Fastener (CF) mechanism, the range narrows to 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, and anything thicker has to be specified when you order. There's also a Door Thickness field on the order so you can state the actual door.
2) What backset do I need to order for an Emtek Straight Knurled privacy leverset, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore hole. The standard latch shipped with the Straight Knurled privacy set is 2-3/8 inch backset, which is what most residential doors are bored for. If your door is prepped at 2-3/4 inches, that's a required selection on the order, not an afterthought, and the latch is adjustable between the two. Pick it wrong and the lever won't line up with the bore.
3) Does the Emtek R-Bar Straight Knurled lever need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
Handing matters. The Straight Knurled lever is ordered Left Hand or Right Hand, so you need to know which way the door swings before placing the order. Stand outside the room the door opens into: if the hinges are on your left, it's left hand. A lever ordered for the wrong hand points the wrong way on the door.
4) What comes in the box with the Emtek Straight Knurled privacy lever set, and do I need to buy a latch separately?
It ships as a complete set: both levers, the rosettes, the latch, and the strike plate. Nothing else to source for a standard door that's already bored. You do choose the latch faceplate style, round corner or square corner, to match the existing mortise in the door edge, and the 28 degree latch comes included if you select the CF mechanism.
5) Is the Emtek Straight Knurled lever suitable for a commercial building or an office?
It's built for residential use, solid brass, contemporary styling, tubular lock chassis. For a commercial opening where you need a Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical lock, look at something like the Falcon K101 Grade 1 non-keyed passage lock, rated for 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors and fire rated, or the Hager 2540 Grade 2 privacy lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Those are the ones spec'd on commercial drawings; the Emtek is a finish hardware choice for homes and residential units.
6) I'm replacing a Kwikset privacy lever in a bathroom, will the Emtek go into the same holes?
In most cases yes. A Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy set covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Emtek Straight Knurled privacy set works on 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors with the same 2-1/8 inch bore, so the existing cross bore carries over. Confirm the backset in the door, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4, and order the Emtek to match. Watch the latch faceplate corner style so it drops into the existing mortise in the door edge without recutting.
7) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled privacy lever?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled lever is a non-keyed tubular privacy/bed/bath set in brass. In another decorative residential line, the Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose carries the same privacy/bed/bath function in a lever set. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton Privacy Lever Set is also a privacy/bed/bath lever, rated Grade 3 and covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. All three lock the same way from inside a bedroom or bath; the differences are the trim program and, for the Breton, a stated Grade 3 rating.
8) What should I use instead of a brass privacy lever on a commercial door that needs a Grade 1 rating?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled privacy lever is a residential set. Where the opening calls for a heavier rating, the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy/bed/bath cylindrical lock listed Grade 1 with a fire rating and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, though it carries a Tudor knob rather than a lever. For a lever in the same privacy family at Grade 2, the Hager 2540 uses the Withnell lever and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
9) Which lever sets look like a privacy substitute but will not actually lock a bathroom door?
Two families get mistaken for the Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled privacy set. Dummy trim does not latch or lock at all: the Baldwin Estate 5103 Left Hand Half Dummy and Estate 5103 Right Hand Half Dummy, the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim lever, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy are all dummy function. Passage sets latch but do not lock, including the Bravura Miramar passage leverset and the Design Hardware J75 passage lever. Only a privacy set gives you the inside lock a bed or bath opening needs.
10) Is the Emtek privacy lever keyed, and how does it lock for a bathroom or bedroom?
Non-keyed. It's a privacy function, so it locks from the inside for a bed or bath door and has no cylinder and no key. There's no keyway to match to the rest of the house and nothing to key alike. If you need a keyed opening, this is the wrong function.
11) Which rosette shapes and finishes can I get on the Emtek SELECT Straight Knurled lever?
Seven 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), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Any brass rosette in the SELECT program can be paired with this lever, and if you want the interior side in a different finish from the exterior there's a split finish option on the order. That's the practical route when you're matching a hallway one way and a bathroom the other.
12) What is the Concealed Fastener (CF) mechanism on the Emtek SELECT lever and should I select it?
CF hides the mounting screws, so you get a clean rosette face with no visible fasteners, and it brings the 28 degree latch with it. The trade is door thickness: with CF you're limited to 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors unless you specify a thicker door on the order, while the standard latch handles up to 2-1/4 inches. On a typical 1-3/8 or 1-3/4 inch interior door, CF costs you nothing. On a thick or solid slab door, take the standard latch.
13) Can I match the Emtek Straight Knurled privacy lever with passage levers on the other doors in the house?
Yes, that's how the SELECT program is meant to be used. The Straight Knurled lever on an R-Bar stem is one handle style within Emtek's SELECT Series, and the same rosettes and finishes carry across the line, so a bathroom privacy set can sit next to hall and closet doors in the identical rosette and finish. If you're standardizing a whole unit or floor, pin down one rosette and one finish and order every function that way.
14) What other brass privacy levers could I use instead of the Emtek SELECT Straight Knurled?
On the decorative residential side, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the closest peer in character, and Baldwin also lists the same 5103 in passage and in left and right hand half dummy so you can run one design across a door set. For a lower-cost interior privacy lever, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. What the Emtek gives you over both is the finish and rosette range, seven rosette shapes and seven finishes on a solid brass body.
15) Does the Emtek STRETTO rosette need different door prep than the other rosettes?
It does. STRETTO calls for a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore hole and a two-hole door preparation for the thumbturn privacy, which is not the same as the 2-1/8 inch single cross bore the other rosettes use. If the door is already bored 2-1/8 inch, pick one of the standard rosettes rather than reworking the door.
16) The door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch. What lever set covers it if the brass privacy set does not?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled set lists a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness in its specifications, with the wider 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch range noted for standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep. If you want a peer with a published range past 1-3/4 inch, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. All three are passage function rather than privacy.
17) What do I use on the entry door if I am putting the brass knurled privacy lever on the bedrooms?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled set is non-keyed, so it will not serve a keyed entry. For the entry opening, the Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered in an entry-side trim family alongside the passage and privacy versions, and the Deltana 6201 Manchester Lever is an entry set covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. In a keyed commercial lever, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors and the 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.
18) Is there a simpler privacy lever than the Emtek brass knurled set for a rental turn?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled set is a brass SELECT Series lever built around seven rosette choices and seven finishes, so it is specified rather than picked off a shelf. For a straightforward one-for-one privacy lever, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy/bed/bath lever set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, arriving as a single configuration. Both cover the same bedroom and bathroom function; the Emtek set is the one you use when the trim has to match a design package.
19) I need a bathroom lever for a school or clinic with a code-required function. Does the brass knurled privacy set cover it?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled set is a residential privacy/bed/bath lever. For an institutional toilet or utility opening, the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty Grade 2 asylum/institution/utility cylindrical lock with a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, and the Dexter C1000 Series asylum lock is a Grade 1 asylum/institution/utility function for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Accentra 107S is a Grade 1 apartment exit/public toilet function item. Those functions allow staff override in a way a residential privacy set does not.
20) Does the Emtek brass knurled privacy lever have to be handed, and what is a non-handed alternative?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled set is ordered left hand or right hand. If you are stocking one part for openings of both swings, the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage lever and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock are both built with non-handed levers, and the Kwikset 200DL Delta passage lever is reversible with an adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike. Each of those is passage function, so they latch without locking.
21) Is the Emtek Straight Knurled lever an electronic or keypad lock?
No, it's mechanical, a tubular privacy latch with a thumbturn, no batteries and no electronics. If you want keyless entry on a lever, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton lever fits 1-3/16 to 2 inch doors, or the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock is a Grade 2 option.
22) What is the difference between the Emtek SELECT brass knurled privacy lever and a keypad lever lock for a bathroom or shared room?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled set is a non-electronic, non-keyed mechanical privacy lever. 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 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination, passage function, on 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock rated Grade 2. Those control who may enter by code; the Emtek set is locked and unlocked from the inside only.
23) Which contemporary lever sets are the nearest alternatives in shape to the R-Bar Straight Knurled trim?
The Emtek SELECT Brass R-Bar Straight Knurled lever is a contemporary straight lever on an R-Bar stem, offered on square and rectangular rosettes as well as round ones. Among comparable lever trims, the Bravura Tampa passage leverset uses square trim and the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando passage leversets use round trim; Design Hardware offers a flat lever in both the J75 Grade 2 and X75 Grade 1 passage sets. Those are passage function, so match the shape from them only when the opening does not need to lock.
