Emtek 8516US4 Dutch Door Bolt Satin Brass

Product Description

The EMTEK 8516US4 is a Dutch door bolt finished in Satin Brass, designed to secure the top and bottom halves of a Dutch door in a fixed position relative to each other. This hardware component mounts to the door edge and engages a strike or the opposing door section, preventing independent movement between the two halves when engaged. It is intended for residential door applications and is typically installed by carpenters, finish contractors, or experienced DIYers during new construction or door hardware replacement work. At 4 inches in nominal length, the bolt offers a proportional fit for standard Dutch door builds.

This Dutch door bolt is suited for residential interior and exterior Dutch door installations where the upper and lower door panels need to be locked together. The Satin Brass finish coordinates with traditional and transitional hardware styles. It is sold as a single unit and is applicable to wood doors where surface or edge mounting is feasible. No specific model compatibility restrictions are stated by the manufacturer for this bolt.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation Dutch door bolt for residential wood Dutch doors requiring a surface or edge-mounted bolt to secure upper and lower door panels together.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter or experienced DIYer using standard hand tools including a drill, chisel, and screwdriver. The door should be fully closed and the latch or lockset disengaged before positioning and fastening the bolt hardware. Follow door manufacturer guidelines for edge preparation and fastener depth to avoid splitting the door stile. Verify alignment of the bolt throw with the receiving strike or panel before final fastener tightening.
