Emtek 8469US26 Square Single Cylinder Deadbolt Polished Chrome

Product Description

The EMTEK 8469US26 is a square-profile single cylinder deadbolt finished in polished chrome, designed for residential and light commercial door security applications. It fits doors that are 1-3/4 inches thick and ships with two backset options — 2-3/8 inches and 2-3/4 inches — covering the most common door prep configurations in the field. The bolt housing and trim carry a clean, square geometric profile that integrates with modern and transitional door hardware styles. Installation is handled by locksmiths, carpenters, and general contractors working on new construction or replacement hardware projects.

This deadbolt is suited for entry doors on residential properties and light commercial installations where a single cylinder configuration is code-appropriate. Single cylinder operation means the exterior side uses a keyed cylinder while the interior side operates with a thumbturn. The polished chrome finish coordinates with chrome-finish lever sets, knobs, and rosettes across a range of door hardware systems. Both included backset sizes are compatible with standard ANSI door prep configurations found on pre-hung and field-drilled door slabs.

Key Features

• Single cylinder operation: keyed exterior, thumbturn interior
• Square profile trim for modern and transitional door design themes
• Accommodates 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets in one unit
• Fits 1-3/4 inch door thickness — the most common residential entry door specification
• Polished chrome (US26) finish for broad hardware coordination

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation deadbolt for standard residential and light commercial entry doors prepped to ANSI specifications with a 2-1/8 inch bore hole and either a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset on 1-3/4 inch door slabs.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by locksmiths, carpenters, or qualified contractors. Before installation or replacement, confirm the door bore diameter and backset measurement match the hardware specifications. Follow local building codes regarding egress door hardware requirements, particularly in commercial or multi-unit residential applications. Do not overtighten mounting screws, as this can affect bolt alignment and latch operation.
