Emtek 7101.L.RH.FBS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek Lafayette passage leverset fit a 2-inch thick door?
The Lafayette wrought steel passage set covers doors from 1-3/8 inches up to 2-1/4 inches thick using standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch bore. So a 2 inch door is inside the range, and so is a 1-3/8 inch older interior door. The one thing to watch: the spec table on the set lists the door thickness as 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so on anything over 1-3/4 inches, state the actual door thickness on the order, since there is a field for it.
2) Does the Emtek Lafayette lever work with a 2-3/4 inch backset, or only 2-3/8?
Both. The latch is adjustable for a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, and backset is a required selection when ordering. The standard latch ships set for 2-3/8 inches, which is the usual residential bore location, so if you are replacing hardware on a door bored at 2-3/4 inches, pick that value rather than assuming the latch arrives right.
3) Do I need to specify handing on an Emtek Lafayette passage lever?
Yes, handing is an ordering choice, left hand or right hand. Lafayette is a cast wrought steel lever with a shaped grip, not a symmetrical bar, so the lever is built for one swing. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand. Getting this wrong on a lever set means the handle curves the wrong way, not just a cosmetic difference.
4) What does passage function mean on the Emtek Lafayette lever, and can it lock?
Passage means it always latches and never locks. There is no key and no thumbturn on the set, so it is for hall, closet, pantry and laundry doors where you want the door to stay shut but never need to secure it. If you need a bedroom or bathroom door that locks from inside, you need the privacy version instead, and if you need a keyed opening this is not the set.
5) Can I put the Emtek Lafayette lever in the existing holes from my old knob set?
If the door is bored to standard prep, yes. The set drops into a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with the latch at either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the prep almost every residential knob or lever already sits in. Check the edge bore and the faceplate corner shape, round or square, since you pick that when ordering. The one prep that is not standard is a STRETTO rosette, which needs a 1-1/4 inch bore and a two-hole prep for privacy thumbturn, and that does not apply to a passage set.
6) Does an Emtek Lafayette passage lever meet a Grade 2 commercial spec on a drawing?
The Emtek Lafayette is a residential wrought steel passage leverset with a tubular non-keyed mechanism. When a drawing calls for a graded cylindrical passage lock, order to the grade: the Accentra 5301LN Augusta and the Accentra 4601LN are Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever locks, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Design Hardware J75 is a Grade 2 passage lever lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors. For Grade 1 passage, the Design Hardware X75 and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 both answer, the CL3110 being vandal resistant and fire rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors.
7) What is the closest decorative-brand alternative to an Emtek Lafayette passage lever?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is the nearest decorative equivalent: it is a passage function lever on a round rose, the same non-latching hall and closet duty as the Emtek Lafayette passage set. The Lafayette differs in its wrought steel collection styling and its choice of #1, #2 or #3 rosette in Flat Black Steel or Satin Steel, and it can be ordered with either a standard latch or the 28 degree rotation latch. Both are decorative residential levers rather than graded commercial locks.
8) The Lafayette passage lever does not lock - what do I use on the bathroom and bedroom doors in the same job?
The Emtek Lafayette passage set is a non-keyed passage function for hall and closet doors, so it has no locking at all. For bed and bath, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose is the matching privacy function on the same 5048 rose as the Baldwin passage lever. On the commercial side, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a fire rated privacy cylindrical lock with a Tudor knob for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
9) I need a keyed lever on the same door the Lafayette passage set was specified for - what do I order?
The Emtek Lafayette passage set is non-keyed and does not accept a cylinder. For a keyed opening on a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is a Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt in the same door range. The Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is the Grade 1 clutching keyed version for that same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range.
10) Which passage levers look like alternatives to the Emtek Lafayette but will not fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
The Emtek Lafayette passage set fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Several graded passage levers start thicker: the Arrow GL01 Sierra lever Grade 2 passage lock and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 both list 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Design Hardware J75 and X75 are listed at 1-3/4 inch. On a 1-3/8 inch door, the passage levers that cover it are the Falcon K101 at 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch and the Hager 2510 at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
11) What comes in the box with the Emtek Lafayette passage set, and do I need to buy the latch separately?
It is a complete set: both levers, the rosettes, the latch and the strike plate. Nothing else to order to hang it on a bored door. The latch faceplate comes round corner or square corner, so match it to the existing mortise in the door edge if you are swapping hardware rather than boring fresh.
12) What is the 28 degree latch option on Emtek leversets and should I pick it?
The 28 degree rotation latch shortens the lever swing needed to retract the bolt, so the handle travels less before the door releases. It is offered alongside the standard latch across all the Lafayette finish and rosette combinations. Choose the standard latch if you are matching the feel of other Emtek hardware already in the house; choose Latch28 if you want the lighter, shorter throw of the handle.
13) What is a good alternative to the Emtek Lafayette passage lever if I want a decorative lever at a lower duty level?
For the same hall-and-closet job in a decorative style, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is the closest peer on look. If you want a graded residential lever instead, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage set is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and Callan's Asheville passage leverset is also Grade 3. The Emtek is the one to keep where the wrought steel finish has to match other Emtek trim in the house.
14) I need the same lever style on a closet door that has no latch at all - what do I order instead of a passage set?
A passage set like the Emtek Lafayette includes a latch and strike plate and turns a working latchbolt, which a false or inactive door leaf does not need. For that opening, use a dummy trim: the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with 5048 rose comes in a left hand and a right hand version, and the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed cylindrical lever dummy. The BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is the Grade 1 heavy duty version of the same idea.
15) What is a simpler non-keyed passage lever than the Emtek Lafayette for a rental turn?
The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever set is a Grade 3 passage function lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same door range the Emtek Lafayette passage set covers, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. Both are plain residential passage levers. The Lafayette differs in offering three rosette styles and a handed left or right build in Flat Black Steel or Satin Steel wrought steel finishes, and a 28 degree rotation latch option; the Kwikset and Callan levers come as they are.
16) The Emtek Lafayette is handed - what passage lever should I order if I do not want to track left and right hand on a multi-door order?
The Emtek Lafayette passage set is ordered as Left Hand or Right Hand. If you would rather not sort handing across a run of doors, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever lock with a non-handed design and the Falcon K101 is the Grade 1 non-handed passage version. The Kwikset 200DL Delta passage lever is reversible and ships with an adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike.
17) Is a keyless pushbutton lever like the Lockey 2835 a substitute for an Emtek Lafayette passage set?
They serve different openings. The Emtek Lafayette is a non-electronic, non-keyed passage leverset - the lever always retracts the latch and there is no access control on it. 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, and the Lockey 2835DC is the double combination version in the same door range. Choose the Lockey where a code must be entered to gain entry, and the Lafayette where the door is a hall or closet opening that only needs a lever and latch.
18) What round-rose passage levers are alternatives to an Emtek Lafayette on a residential remodel?
The Bravura Miramar with round trim is a Grade 2 passage leverset in US4 satin brass, and the Bravura Atlanta and Bravura Orlando are Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim as well. If the door instead calls for a square rose, the Bravura Tampa is the Grade 2 passage leverset with square trim. The Emtek Lafayette passage set is ordered with a #1, #2 or #3 wrought steel rosette in Flat Black Steel or Satin Steel.
19) What finishes and rosette styles does the Emtek Lafayette wrought steel lever come in?
Two finishes, Flat Black Steel (FBS) and Satin Steel (SWS), each available with #1, #2 or #3 rosette. Every finish pairs with every rosette in both hands, so you can standardize the rosette shape across a floor and still mix black and satin between rooms. The set is wrought steel from the Wrought Steel collection, which is why the finish list is short compared with Emtek's brass lines.
