Emtek 5212HECUS15LH Hercules Privacy Lever Satin Nickel

Product Description

The EMTEK 5212HECUS15LH is a left-hand Hercules lever privacy lockset finished in Satin Nickel. It is designed for interior privacy applications such as bathrooms and bedrooms where a turn-button or push-button locking function is required without a keyed cylinder. The lever pairs with a Modern Rectangular Rose and is configured for a 2-3/8 inch backset. It fits doors ranging from 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches in thickness. Weighing 2.9 pounds, the assembly is built to residential and light-commercial grade standards. Installation is handled by carpenters, finish carpenters, or skilled DIYers as part of a door hardware replacement or new construction finish-out.

This lockset is suited for residential interior doors where a privacy function is needed. Typical applications include master bath, guest bath, bedroom, and home office doors. The left-hand designation applies to doors with hinges on the left when viewed from the pull side. The Modern Rectangular Rose provides a clean, contemporary profile that suits transitional and modern interior design schemes. The Satin Nickel finish offers a brushed, low-sheen appearance that coordinates with a wide range of fixtures and hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a carpenter or finish carpenter during construction or renovation. Confirm the door hand and backset measurement before ordering, as levers are directional and backsets are not field-adjustable on this assembly. Disengage any existing latch hardware before removing the old lockset. Follow the manufacturer-supplied template for bore and cross-bore alignment if installing on a new door.
