Narrative:
Upon selecting gear down on approach we received the gear disagree warning message. We preformed a missed approach; informed ATC of our malfunction; declared an emergency; and asked for delaying vectors while we performed checklists. We performed the QRH for gear down disagree; which called for a manual gear extension. The procedure worked and we got a gear down and locked indication. I briefed the flight attendant and passengers of the situation; and told them we were making an emergency landing; but that I expected everything to be just like a normal landing and taxi in. The landing and taxi in were uneventful. This event was due to a mechanical malfunction of the aircraft.
