Key Considerations When Choosing Emtek Deadbolts
- Security Level (ANSI/BHMA Grade): For maximum security, look for deadbolts with an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 rating, indicating superior strength and pick resistance.
- Single vs. Double Cylinder: Carefully consider your preference for egress convenience versus enhanced security. Double cylinder deadbolts require a key to exit, which can be a safety concern in emergencies. Always check local building codes regarding their use.
- Backset Measurement: Ensure the deadbolt's backset (distance from the door's edge to the center of the borehole) matches your door's preparation, commonly 2-3/8" or 2-3/4".
- Door Thickness: Confirm the deadbolt's compatibility with your door's thickness. Most standard deadbolts fit doors between 1-3/8" and 1-3/4" thick.
- Finish & Style Matching: Select a finish and style that harmonizes with your existing entry hardware and the overall aesthetic of your home's exterior.

However, "living finishes" such as Oil Rubbed Bronze, Unlacquered Brass, and Bronze Patina are designed to naturally age and develop a unique patina over time, and therefore do not carry a finish warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions About Emtek Deadbolts
Q: What security ratings do Emtek deadbolts typically offer?
A: Many Emtek deadbolts are designed to meet or exceed ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 security standards, providing excellent residential security. For the highest level of residential security, some premium Emtek options may achieve a Grade 1 rating, indicating superior resistance to picking, drilling, and forced entry.
Q: How do Emtek deadbolts compare to standard, mass-produced deadbolts?
A: Emtek deadbolts stand apart due to their **solid brass construction**, precision engineering, and meticulous hand-finishing in the USA. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, Emtek offers a tailored, high-end security solution that provides superior long-term durability, smoother operation, and consistent design quality across all their architectural hardware.
Q: Should I choose a single cylinder or double cylinder Emtek deadbolt for my home?
A: The choice depends on your security needs and local codes. A **single cylinder deadbolt** (key outside, thumbturn inside) is common and convenient for quick exit. A **double cylinder deadbolt** (keyed on both sides) offers heightened security, especially for doors with glass inserts, as it prevents intruders from simply breaking the glass and turning a thumbturn. However, it can pose a safety risk during emergencies as a key is required to exit. Always check your local building codes.
Q: Are Emtek deadbolts rekeyable to match my existing keys?
A: Yes, Emtek deadbolts utilize standard keyways (typically Schlage C or Kwikset KW1, depending on the model) and can be easily rekeyed by a locksmith to match your existing Emtek or other brand keys, providing added convenience and security coordination for your home.
Q: What is the typical throw length of an Emtek deadbolt bolt?
A: Emtek deadbolts commonly feature a substantial 1-inch hardened steel bolt throw. This extended throw provides a deeper engagement into the door frame, significantly enhancing resistance against forced entry and adding an extra layer of security compared to deadbolts with shorter throws.
