All Emtek items are made to order.Emtek's single cylinder handlesets use traditional American locks complete with a variety of trim styles, handcrafted from authentic materials. The Brighton handleset is operated by a key from the exterior, and a thumbturn from the interior. The door is opened from both sides by a metal handle with thumb grip. Uncompromisingly rugged and beautifully crafted, these locks are suitable for the very finest homes.Like all of Emtek's Rustic Modern Collection, the Brighton is cast from molten bronze one piece at a time into authentic rustic designs. The Brighton's patina finishes are achieved using the traditional techniques of bronze sculptors. With pitted surfaces and hand-finished patinas, these uniquely American designs resonate a calm strength. The Brighton's handles are supported by springs mounted behind the rosettes and sideplates, which return the handles back to the rest position, preventing 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.Emtek is dedicated to bringing interesting, well made hardware back into American homes. Emtek's mission is to satisfy the higher expectations of today's homeowners with regard to door locks. They strive to provide a broad and interesting range of products that consumers can use as elements of decor, and not just as a way to latch a door.
