Emtek Melrose Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Mortise Handleset from the American Classic Collection

All Emtek items are made to order.

Emtek's single cylinder mortise handlesets use traditional American mortise locks complete with a variety of trim styles, handcrafted from authentic materials. The mortise lock is operated by a key from the exterior, and a thumbturn from the interior. The door is opened from the exterior by a metal handle with thumb grip, and by your choice of a variety of knob and lever options from the interior. Uncompromisingly rugged and beautifully crafted, these locks are suitable for the very finest homes.

The American Classic Collection's knob/lever handles are supported by springs mounted behind the rosettes and sideplates, which return the handles back to the rest position and prevent lever sag. The latches are heavy-duty die cast construction, with strong internal springs, solid brass nose bolts, and sintered metal cams. A plastic bushing located in the joint between the handle and the rosette ensures a friction-free wear surface, preventing metal from bearing on metal and providing smooth, long-lasting operation. Handles are positively connected to rosettes with a permanent clip. Each has a set screw which eliminates "handle wobble" when tightened. Emtek's threaded tubes are machined brass to ensure good threads and prevent corrosion.

Features:

• Meets the standard mortise door prep ANSI A115.1
• Constructed from solid brass for durability along with long-lasting quality
• Emtek offers a Limited Lifetime Warranty to the original purchaser
Two keys will be shipped per lock. Three or more items keyed alike will ship a total of 6 keys
