Emtek S100-02.KL.RH.SS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What backset do I need to specify on the Emtek Kiel lever, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
Backset is a required choice on the Kiel passage set and it comes in 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. The latch ships as 2-3/8 inch unless you call out 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore hole: residential doors are usually 2-3/8 inch, and a heavier or commercial-prepped door is often 2-3/4 inch. Get this wrong and the lever will not line up with the existing hole.
2) Does the Emtek Kiel passage lever lock, and what door is it right for?
It does not lock. Passage function means the lever turns freely from both sides at all times, with no key and no thumbturn, so it is for hall, closet, pantry, and laundry doors. For a bedroom or bathroom you want the privacy version with a push-button, and for an exterior or office door you want a keyed entry lockset instead.
3) Do I have to specify handing on the Emtek Kiel leverset?
You pick left hand or right hand when you order the Kiel, and both are offered with either latch option. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, hinges on the right is right hand. Emtek notes that with the Concealed Fastener mechanism handing is not required except on a knob-by-lever combination, but the order form still carries the LH/RH choice, so give the actual swing of your door.
4) Is the Emtek Kiel lever suitable for a commercial building or apartment turnover?
The Kiel is catalogued by Emtek as residential, so it suits single-family, condo, and high-end multi-family interiors rather than commercial traffic. If you are speccing hall and closet doors in a commercial or institutional building, look at a graded cylindrical passage lock instead: the Falcon K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty with non-handed levers and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thickness range, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever. For lighter commercial work the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is Grade 2 passage.
5) What is the closest commercial-grade equivalent to an Emtek Kiel passage leverset for a hall or closet door?
The Emtek Kiel passage leverset is a tubular, non-keyed passage lock in a stainless steel collection, catalogued for residential use. If the same hall or closet opening is in a commercial building and needs a graded lock, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, and the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lever lock, also non-handed. Both do the same job at the door - latch retracts from either side, no locking - with a graded commercial chassis instead of a decorative stainless steel one.
6) The Kiel passage lever is going on a 2 inch thick door - what passage lever covers that thickness?
The Emtek Kiel passage set fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick with a 2-1/8 inch bore, though the concealed fastener version is limited to 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch unless a thicker door is specified. For a 2 inch door where the concealed fastener look is not required, the Falcon K101 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage lever covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
7) What passage lever should be used instead of the Emtek Kiel on a fire rated opening?
The Emtek Kiel is a residential passage leverset. For a passage or closet opening in a fire rated assembly, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock with a fire rating, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever lock with a fire rating. Both are non-keyed passage function, so the door behaves the same way as it would with the Kiel.
8) What looks like a substitute for the Emtek Kiel passage lever but will not work on a hall or closet door?
Dummy levers are the common mix-up. The Emtek Kiel passage set includes a latch and strike plate and retracts a real latchbolt, while the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy levers, the BEST 9K 1DT and 7KC 1DT single dummy trims, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy are dummy function - surface mounted trim with no latch at all, for a door held shut by a ball catch or roller. The Baldwin 5103 privacy lever and the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton are privacy function, which adds a bed and bath locking button the Kiel passage set does not have.
9) The Emtek Kiel is non-keyed - what lever should be used where the door has to lock?
The Emtek Kiel passage set is non-keyed, so it has no cylinder and the door never locks. Where the opening needs to secure, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever, the Dexter C1000 entry/office is a Grade 1 keyed clutching lever, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lock with a lever handle. Keeping the same lever family across an opening pair usually means matching the trim design, not the function.
10) What is the CF (concealed fastener) upgrade on Emtek leversets, and is it worth taking?
CF stands for Concealed Fastener: the rosettes mount with no exposed screws, so you get a clean face on both sides of the door. The tradeoff is door thickness, the CF mechanism covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch and anything thicker has to be specified. The standard latch version has visible rosette screws but carries the wider thickness range. Both versions of the Kiel ship with the 28 degree rotation latch.
11) What comes in the box with the Emtek Kiel passage set, or do I need to buy a latch separately?
It is a complete set: both levers, the rosettes you chose, the latch, and the strike plate. Nothing else to order for a standard install. The latch is a 28 degree rotation type, which is what lets the lever operate through the shorter throw of a lever rather than a knob. On the CF version a dust box is included as well.
12) Round or square latch faceplate for the Emtek Kiel, which one matches my door?
Both are available. Look at the existing latch mortise in the door edge: if the router left rounded corners, take the round corner faceplate and it drops straight in. A square corner faceplate needs a chiseled square mortise. On a new door slab bored for a standard lockset the round corner is the usual match, and a drive-in latch is not offered here.
13) What is a decorative alternative to the Emtek Kiel passage lever in the same style bracket?
The closest decorative peer we carry is the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with the 5048 rose, another residential-grade designer leverset in passage function. If the look matters less than budget, the Bravura Tampa is a Grade 2 passage leverset with square trim and the Bravura Atlanta is the round-trim version. Where the Kiel is different is the material and the finish family: it is stainless steel throughout, which is what you want near coastal or high-humidity openings.
14) I need a matching non-functioning lever for a closet door that does not latch. Does the Emtek Kiel passage set work?
No. A passage set latches, so on a false door, an inactive leaf of a pair, or a door held by a ball catch you want a dummy lever, not this. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy comes in left and right hand, and the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 single dummy trim if the opening is commercial. Emtek also builds dummy trim in this line, so ask for the Kiel in dummy rather than passage if you want the same lever on both doors.
15) Can I standardize a whole floor of interior doors on the Emtek Kiel lever?
Yes, and it is a straightforward fleet spec because the lever is non-keyed, so there is no keying schedule to manage. Order the passage version for halls, closets, and pantries; take the privacy version of the same Kiel lever for bedrooms and baths so the trim matches across the floor. Keep one backset across the building where you can, since the latch ships 2-3/8 inch unless 2-3/4 inch is specified, and note any doors thicker than 1-3/4 inch if you are taking the CF rosettes.
16) Is the Emtek Kiel a tubular or a mortise lock, and does it matter for my door?
Tubular, also called cylindrical or bored. It goes into two holes, a 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face and an edge bore for the latch, which is how nearly every residential interior door is already prepped. A mortise lock needs a deep rectangular pocket routed into the door edge and is not interchangeable with this. If your door has a mortise pocket, a bored lockset like the Kiel will not fill it.
17) Is there a simpler passage leverset than the Emtek Kiel for a decorative residential interior door?
The Emtek Kiel passage set is a stainless steel, contemporary style leverset ordered by handing, rosette and backset. If a simpler decorative passage lever suits the opening, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is a passage function lever, and the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa passage leversets are Grade 2 passage leversets - the Atlanta and Orlando with round trim, the Tampa with square trim. The Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick.
18) Does the Emtek Kiel passage lever need handing, and which passage levers do not?
The Emtek Kiel passage set is ordered left hand or right hand, and Emtek notes that handing is not required with the concealed fastener mechanism except for knob by lever. If a non-handed passage lever simplifies a multi-door order, the Falcon K101 and Falcon B101 are both non-handed passage lever locks, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 and 4601LN Grade 2 are passage function cylindrical lever locks.
19) What Grade 1 passage lever compares to the Emtek Kiel for a high traffic corridor?
The Emtek Kiel is a residential tubular passage leverset. For corridor and stairwell traffic, the Grade 1 passage levers are the Falcon K101 heavy duty non-handed passage lock, the Falcon T101 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 vandal resistant passage/closet lever, and the Design Hardware X75 passage lever lockset with a flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Grade 2 step down includes the Design Hardware J75 flat lever passage lockset and the Arrow GL01 Sierra lever passage lock for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
20) What replaces an Emtek Kiel passage lever when the door needs coded access instead of free passage?
The Emtek Kiel is a non-electronic, non-keyed passage set. Where a door in the same run needs code entry, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, the Lockey 2835DC adds double combination on the same thickness range, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock if power and electronics are acceptable.
21) Is a Grade 3 passage lever an alternative to the Emtek Kiel on light duty interior doors?
The Emtek Kiel passage set is a residential tubular leverset. On light duty interior openings, the Grade 3 passage options are the Callan Asheville passage leverset in satin nickel and the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Kwikset 200DL Delta lever passage door lock is an interior hall and closet lever with a reversible adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike, and the 200DL-RCALFD version comes with a round corner adjustable 20 minute UL latch and round corner strike.
22) Disk or square rosette on the Emtek Kiel, and can I use a different stainless rosette?
The Kiel passage set is offered with the Disk (02) rosette or the Square (03) rosette, and Emtek states the lever can be ordered with any stainless steel rosette in the line. Square rosettes read cleaner against a contemporary door with square-edge casing; the disk is the safer match on traditional trim. Both rosette shapes come in left and right hand and with either the standard or CF latch.
