Emtek 5109US19.TAUS19.TZLT.RH – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage lever fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The Terrazzo passage leverset covers 1-3/8 inch through 2-1/4 inch doors on a standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep. One catch: if you order it with the Concealed Fastener (CF) mechanism, the range narrows to 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so a thicker door needs the standard latch or a note on the order. There is a Door Thickness field on the order form to state your actual thickness.
2) Does the Emtek Terrazzo lever work with a 2-3/4 inch backset, or only 2-3/8?
Both. The latch supplied with the Terrazzo lever is adjustable between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets, and backset is a required choice when you order. The default shipped is 2-3/8 inch, so on a commercial-width door or a thicker stile where the existing prep is 2-3/4, call that out on the order.
3) Can I drop the Emtek Terrazzo lever into an existing bored door without redrilling?
If the door already has the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset edge bore, the Terrazzo lever goes straight in. It is a tubular, non-keyed passage lock, so there is no cylinder hole to worry about. The one exception is the STRETTO rosette, which wants a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole prep.
4) Does a passage lever lock, or do I need a privacy set for a bedroom or bath?
Passage means it latches and never locks. The Terrazzo passage set has no button, no thumbturn, and no key, which makes it right for a hall, closet, or a door between rooms. For a bedroom or bathroom you want the privacy version with a thumbturn instead. Nothing about the lever or rosette changes, only the mechanism behind it.
5) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar lever?
Yes, it is ordered left hand or right hand. The T-Bar stem and Terrazzo lever are a directional design, so the handle has to be built for the swing. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand. A mis-handed lever points the wrong way and there is no field reversing it, unlike the non-handed commercial levers such as the Falcon B101.
6) Is the Emtek Terrazzo lever suitable for a commercial corridor or an apartment turnover?
It is a residential-duty brass leverset from Emtek's SELECT series, better suited to a home, a model unit, or a hospitality-style interior than to a high traffic commercial corridor. Where you need a graded commercial passage lever, the Falcon K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 passage lock for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. For a lighter commercial spec, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is Grade 2 passage.
7) What is a straight passage lever equivalent to the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set in another decorative brand?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is the closest decorative-brand match, carrying the same passage/hall/closet function as the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set. Both are non-keyed passage levers on a rose, so the opening prep and the way the door operates are the same; what changes is the lever design and the rose family. The Emtek is a brass set built on the Terrazzo handle with a T-Bar stem and a choice of Disk, Square, Quincy, Watford, Wilshire, Urban Modern or Modern Rectangular rosette, which is where the Baldwin and the Emtek diverge for anyone matching existing trim.
8) The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage lever is residential. What passage lever should I use on a commercial opening that needs a Grade 1 fire-rated lock?
The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set is a residential brass leverset. For a commercial opening that has to carry a Grade 1 fire rating, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is the other route, a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet cylindrical lever lock that is also fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Both are function-identical to the Emtek in that the latch is always free from both sides.
9) I need the same lever look on a bedroom or bathroom door that locks. What do I order instead of a passage set?
A passage set never locks - the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar set is a non-keyed passage/hall/closet lever, so it is wrong for a bedroom or bath. For that opening use a privacy lever: the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose is the decorative-brand counterpart, and the Hager 2540 Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with Withnell lever covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch for higher-traffic work.
10) What looks like a substitute for a passage lever set but will not work on the same door?
Dummy levers are the common mix-up. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever on the 5048 rose, sold left hand and right hand, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever lock are both dummy function - a fixed pull with no latch, mounted to a door face with no bore for a latchbolt. The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar set is a passage lockset sold complete with latch and strike plate for a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, so a dummy will not hold a closet or hall door shut and will not fill the same prep.
11) Which passage levers fit a 2 inch thick door, since the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar set is specified for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch?
The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set is specified for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a 2 inch door, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever lock with Withnell design covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra lever passage lock covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. All three are non-keyed passage function like the Emtek.
12) What do I use instead of the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage lever on an office or entry door that has to take a key?
The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar set is non-keyed, so it cannot secure an office or entry opening. Keyed options in lever form include the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 entry/office clutching cylindrical lever lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Hager 2525 Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with lever handle for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Cal-Royal AG00 Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset. The Emtek is offered on that same 2-3/8 inch backset as well as 2-3/4 inch.
13) What comes in the box with the Emtek Terrazzo passage lever, and what else do I need to buy?
It ships as a complete set: levers for both sides, the rosettes, the latch, and the strike plate. You pick the rosette style and the finish; nothing else is required to hang it on a prepped door. The latch faceplate comes round corner or square corner, so match whichever your existing mortise in the door edge is cut for.
14) What is the CF (Concealed Fastener) option on the Emtek Terrazzo lever and is it worth it?
CF hides the mounting screws, so you get a clean rosette face with no visible fasteners. It also brings a 28 degree latch, which is a shorter lever throw to retract the bolt. The trade is door thickness: CF is built for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, while the standard latch covers up to 2-1/4 inches. On a normal 1-3/4 inch residential door either works and CF is the better looking of the two.
15) Can I match the Emtek Terrazzo lever to the other door hardware in the house?
Seven finishes are offered on the rosette and stem: Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Rosette shape is a separate choice across Disk, Modern Rectangular, Quincy, Square, Urban Modern, Watford, and Wilshire, so you can carry a square rosette through the whole floor or mix a round one where it suits. There is also a split finish field if you want a different finish inside and out.
16) What is a decorative brass alternative to the Emtek Terrazzo passage lever?
For a designer-grade brass passage lever in the same vein, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose is the closest peer we carry, and it has matching privacy and half dummy versions in left and right hand so you can run one design across a whole set of doors. If you want the look at a lower commercial spec, the Bravura Miramar passage leverset comes in US4 satin brass and is Grade 2.
17) What is a simpler passage lever for a rental turnover where the Emtek Terrazzo brass set is more than the door needs?
For plain interior hall and closet doors, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever set is a Grade 3 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. Both do the same job as the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set - latch retracts from either side, no key, no lock - without the brass construction, the seven-finish range, or the interchangeable rosette choices that make the Emtek a design match to existing trim.
18) Is there a non-handed passage lever alternative if I do not want to specify left or right hand?
The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set is ordered left hand or right hand, so the door swing has to be established before the order goes in. If you would rather stock one part for both swings, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, and the Falcon K101 is the Grade 1 heavy duty version with non-handed levers. Both are passage function, same as the Emtek.
19) What is the difference between the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set and the Bravura passage leversets?
Bravura offers passage leversets in several designs - the Miramar with round trim in US4 satin brass at Grade 2, the Atlanta with round trim, the Orlando with round trim, and the Tampa with square trim, all Grade 2 passage function. Each is a fixed pairing of one lever design to one trim shape. The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set works differently: the Terrazzo handle and T-Bar stem are ordered against a separately chosen rosette, with seven shapes available, and split finishes can be called out, so the trim is specified rather than fixed to the lever.
20) Is a keypad lever set a substitute for a passage lever on a hall or closet door?
The Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock and the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set are both described as passage function, which can make them look interchangeable with the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar passage set. They are not the same part: the Lockey units are keypad code-entry locks fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch and 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch respectively, where the Emtek is a decorative brass leverset with no code entry, always free from both sides, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Use the keypad units where access has to be controlled by a code, not where a hall door simply needs a handle.
21) For a school or institutional corridor, what passage lever is specified instead of a residential brass leverset?
The Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar set is a residential tubular passage leverset. Institutional corridor work generally calls for a Grade 1 cylindrical lock: the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lever with pressure release technology, and the BEST 9K Series is Grade 1 heavy duty in the same cylindrical family, though the 1DT is dummy trim rather than a working passage latch. For the passage opening itself the Falcon T101 or K101 is the direct functional counterpart.
22) Is the Emtek Terrazzo lever solid brass or plated zinc?
Brass, both the material and the substrate, in Emtek's SELECT line with a contemporary T-Bar stem and the light terrazzo handle. The brass body is why it takes finishes like unlacquered brass, which is a living finish that patinas rather than staying uniform.
23) Can I use any Emtek brass rosette with the Terrazzo T-Bar lever?
Any Emtek brass rosette works with the Terrazzo T-Bar lever, and seven are offered directly: Disk, Modern Rectangular, Quincy, Square, Urban Modern, Watford, and Wilshire. Watch the STRETTO sideplate if you go that route, since it needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole door prep rather than the standard single 2-1/8 inch cross bore.
24) What Grade 2 passage lever options are there if Grade 3 is too light but Grade 1 is more than the job calls for?
Several Grade 2 passage levers sit in that middle band. The Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever lock in passage/closet function from the 5300 Series, and the Accentra 4601LN is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with Augusta trim from the 4600 Series. The Design Hardware J75 is a Grade 2 passage lever lockset with a flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors, with the X75 as the Grade 1 version of the same flat lever. All are passage function like the Emtek Terrazzo T-Bar set, which is a residential brass set rather than a commercial-graded one.
