Emtek 5209US19.TAUS19.KN.RH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy lever fit a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door?
Yes. The SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy leverset drops into standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, and it covers doors from 1-3/8 inch up to 2-1/4 inch thick. One exception on the rosette choice: the STRETTO rosette needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole prep for the thumbturn, so it is not a plain standard-prep swap.
2) What backset do I need to specify for this Emtek privacy lever, and does it fit 2-3/4 inch?
Both. The latch supplied with the SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set is adjustable between 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset, and backset is a required selection when you order. Standard shipment is set up for 2-3/8 inch, so call out 2-3/4 inch if that is what your door is bored for. Those are the two common residential backsets, measured from the door edge to the center of the bore.
3) If I pick the Concealed Fastener (CF) mechanism, does it still fit my door?
Watch the thickness here. With the Concealed Fastener (CF) mechanism selected, the range narrows to 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch rather than the 2-1/4 inch maximum you get with the standard latch. If your door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch, note the actual thickness on the order. The CF build also brings the 28 degree latch with it.
4) Does this Emtek privacy lever come with the latch and strike, or do I order those separately?
It ships complete. The SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set includes the latch and the strike plate, so you are not sourcing those on the side. The latch faceplate comes round corner or square corner to match the mortise already cut in your door edge.
5) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek knurled T-Bar lever?
Yes, left hand or right hand is a required choice on the T-Bar Knurled leverset. Stand on the outside of the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, hinges on the right is right hand. A privacy lever is handed because the lever has to point back toward the hinge side and the thumbturn has to land on the room side.
6) Is a privacy lever the right function for a bedroom or bathroom door, or do I need a keyed entry set?
Privacy is the correct function for bed and bath. The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set is non-keyed: it locks from the inside with a thumbturn and has no cylinder. Use a keyed entry lock only on exterior or secured doors. For hall and closet doors where you want no locking at all, a passage set is the one to order.
7) Is this Emtek knurled leverset rated for commercial use in an office building?
No. The SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set is a residential tubular lockset, brass construction, contemporary styling. For a commercial opening you want a cylindrical Grade 1 or Grade 2 lock instead, such as the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series Grade 1 or the Falcon K Series K101 Grade 1, both of which we carry.
8) What is the closest decorative privacy lever to the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set if I want a different design family?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the nearest decorative equivalent - same privacy/bed/bath function, same lever-on-rose format. The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set differs in that the brass knurled lever can be paired with seven rosette shapes including Disk, Square, Quincy, Urban Modern, Watford, Wilshire and Modern Rectangular, while the Baldwin 5103 is supplied with its 5048 rose.
9) I need a privacy lever for a commercial bathroom door - is the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set the right choice?
The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set is a residential brass lockset. For a commercial washroom opening, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock with a fire rating and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door range, though it uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever.
10) Can the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set be keyed for an exterior or office door?
No - the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set is non-keyed privacy/bed/bath only. For a keyed opening in a similar lever format, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead levers are entry function and cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway and 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lever.
11) My spec calls for a Grade 1 or Grade 2 lever - does the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set meet that?
The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set is a residential brass tubular lockset. If your drawing calls out an ANSI grade, graded cylindrical levers include the Design Hardware X75 Grade 1 passage lever and J75 Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt.
12) Can I match the Emtek knurled lever to the rosettes already on my other doors?
The T-Bar Knurled lever can be ordered on any brass rosette, and the shapes offered are Disk, Modern Rectangular, Quincy, Square, Urban Modern, Watford, and Wilshire. Finish choices for the rosette and stem are Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). There is also a split finish option if you want the exterior side to differ from the room side.
13) What else could I use if I want a decorative brass privacy lever but not the knurled Emtek?
The closest decorative alternative we carry is the Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with the 5048 rose, which is the same bed and bath privacy function in a traditional design rather than the contemporary knurled look. If budget drives the decision on an interior door, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever is a Grade 3 privacy set for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek is the one to pick when you need to match a rosette shape and finish across a whole run of doors.
14) I need matching passage and dummy levers on the same hallway. Can I get the same look in other functions?
This particular set is the privacy function only, locking from the room side with a thumbturn. Emtek builds the SELECT program so the same lever, stem and rosette carry across functions, so specify the T-Bar Knurled lever on the rosette shape and finish you chose here when ordering the passage or dummy openings. If you are cross-shopping, Baldwin runs the Estate 5103 in passage, privacy, and left and right hand half dummy so one design covers a whole hallway.
15) Is there a lower-cost privacy lever than the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set for rental units?
For multi-family bed and bath doors the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy lever set is a Grade 3 privacy lockset with a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set is a solid brass residential set that fits 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors with a 2-1/8 inch bore and offers finish and rosette selection; the Kwikset is a fixed-design set.
16) What should I use instead of the Emtek T-Bar Knurled privacy set on a hall or closet door?
A hall or closet door does not need a locking function. Matching options include the Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage Lever with 5048 Rose, and on the commercial side the Falcon B101 Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design or the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever with the Withnell design, which covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set is privacy/bed/bath only.
17) I need a matching non-functioning lever for a closet or inactive leaf next to my Emtek knurled privacy doors - what are the options?
The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set is a privacy lockset with a latch and strike, so it is not a dummy. Handed half dummy levers are available as the Baldwin Estate 5103 Left Hand Half Dummy with 5048 Rose and the Baldwin Estate 5103 Right Hand Half Dummy with 5048 Rose. For commercial trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy lever and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy.
18) Do I need to specify handing on a privacy lever, and which comparable levers are non-handed?
The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled privacy set is ordered as left hand or right hand, so the opening has to be handed at order time. If you prefer to avoid handing on a lever, the Falcon B101 Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock both use a non-handed lever design, though both are passage rather than privacy function.
19) Will a keyless pushbutton lever work in place of the Emtek T-Bar Knurled privacy set on a bathroom or office door?
They serve different purposes. The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set is a mechanical, non-electronic privacy lockset. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance fitting 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set fitting 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors - both control access by code rather than providing a bed and bath privacy turn.
20) What does the 28 degree latch on the Emtek CF mechanism actually change?
It shortens the lever swing. The 28 degree latch comes bundled when you choose the Concealed Fastener mechanism on the T-Bar Knurled set, so the lever retracts the bolt over a shorter arc than a conventional latch. The CF mechanism itself also hides the mounting screws on the rosette, which is the reason most buyers choose it.
21) What is a good satin brass lever alternative to the Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set?
The Emtek SELECT T-Bar Knurled set can be ordered in Satin Brass (US4) along with Flat Black, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Polished Chrome, Polished Nickel, Satin Nickel and Unlacquered Brass. For a simpler satin brass lever, the Bravura Miramar with round trim is a Grade 2 passage leverset in US4 Satin Brass - note it is passage function rather than privacy.
