# Emtek Finish Chart

Locksets are available in nine designer finishes to compliment many architectural themes. All finishes are appropriate for both interior and exterior installations.

**Polished Brass**- Traditional American finish, simple, honest, strong. Highly polished brass is protected with a glossy protective coating of lacquer.

**Antique Brass**- Stylishly displays the skill of the craftspeople who buff a graceful pattern of dark relief lines into every component. Protected with clear, gloss, lacquer.

**PVD Lifetime**- Looks like polished brass but achieved by plating the underlying brass part with nickel, chrome, and titanium resulting in a highly durable and corrosion-resistant surface. Slight reddish tint compared to real polished brass.

**Pewter**- Makes a strong designer statement useful in rustic and country settings. Nickel-plated brass is hand relieved and protected with a flat coating.

**Oil Rubbed Bronze**- Evokes a feeling of bronze statuary and aged elegance. Copper-plated brass is hand relieved in a pattern consistent with natural wear.

**Polished Chrome**- Useful for achieving a modern look and for matching bath hardware. This is a highly durable finish excellent for high wear or corrosive environments.

**Satin Nickel**- Traditional American Victorian finish currently enjoying a revival. Excellent for suggesting a period look. Less reflective than polished chrome, and with the character of hand-made finishing marks intentionally left on the surface.

**Satin Steel**- The look of well-used antique steel without rust. This finish is protected by a zinc coating laid down on top of a distressed steel surface.

**Flat Black**- A traditional wrought iron appearance achieved with a heavy layer of zinc for corrosion protection. Excellent for Mediterranean and Colonial themes.
