do they come with option different latch plates? like in ur vid its a rectangular latch plate. but my doors are cut with rounded corners for a latch plate
Yes, you can order emtek hardware with radius corners. If you're having trouble finding that option, it's really easy to square off the corners of your door and frame, yourself. All you need is a chisel. You could probably do it with a box cutter, but it won't look as clean. The other option is buying a corner chisel. You can get ones that are spring loaded and self aligning
Hi Andre, this is helpful. Can you explain how these Emtek levers lock from the interior (like a bedroom door) and unlock from the outside in an emergency?
There's a pinhole on the outside opposite of the privacy lock that you can stick a paperclip through to gain access if needed, that's why it's not a security lock, but rather a privacy one.
Andre Thompson. Thanks. But how do you lock it in the first place? I don’t see anything to twist or push. By the way, we are a customer. Via is our contractor

@@davehurd7486 there's a privacy pin on the rosette. I can't link images here but it's a much cleaner look than on the lever or knob.
