Door Preparation for Emtek Hardware
Emtek door hardware fits into a standard American style tubular door prep. If you are
replacing existing locks then your door preps will most likely be correct for
Emtek Doorknobs. Just determine the backset and you're ready to order. If you're
installing locks in new doors that do not have a door prep you can follow the
instructions below. Emtek knobs are shipped with square corner strike and mortise plates. If you need rounded mortise plates you'll need to specify when ordering. There are certain Emtek locksets that will require different bore hole spacing that the standard American bore hole spacing for knobs and deadbolts. Any special requirements will be noted on the individual product page for that Emtek doorknob. These keyed locks with sideplates require two sets of holes with a center-to-center distance of 3-5/8" between the two sets of holes. Please watch for special notes on any of our door hardware product pages so that you don't order door knobs that are not going to work with your existing doors.
