Bravura BV925-252 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door thickness does the Bancroft knobset handle, and what if my door is thicker?
Standard range is 1-3/8 to 2 inches, which covers virtually every residential interior door. For 2-1/4 and 2-1/2 inch doors, extension kits are available for the Bancroft.
2) How do you unlock a Bravura Bancroft privacy knob from the outside if someone locks themselves in the bathroom?
The outside knob has a small pin hole. Push a straight pin or emergency key through it and the interior push-lock releases. The locking button itself is on the inside knob only, so there is no key and no cylinder to rekey.
3) Which backset do I order for the Bancroft, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
Measure from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch bore. Most residential doors land at 2-3/8 inches, which is the Bancroft's standard. Deeper stiles, and many doors originally fitted with commercial hardware, take 2-3/4 inches. Backset is a required selection, so you have to commit to one at order time rather than adjusting on site.
4) Do I need a separate latch and strike, or does the Bancroft knobset come complete?
It ships complete. The latch has a 1 x 2-1/4 inch round corner faceplate with a 1/2 inch solid brass bolt throw, and both strikes are supplied, a full lip round corner (9103) and a square corner (9102). That means you can match whatever corner your existing frame mortise has without a second trip.
5) Is the Bravura Bancroft knobset strong enough for an apartment building or hotel corridor?
It's a residential-duty product. The internal mechanics exceed ANSI Grade 2 standards, which is fine for bedroom and bathroom doors in apartments and single family homes, but it isn't built for commercial traffic. For a heavier-use privacy opening, look at the Dexter C2000 Series Grade 2 privacy knob, and for keyed commercial openings step up to something like the Sargent 8XG04 Grade 1 storeroom knob.
6) Can I use the Bravura Bancroft privacy knobset on a commercial corridor or classroom door?
The Bancroft is designated residential and carries a Grade 2 privacy/bed/bath function, so it has no key cylinder for controlled access. For commercial openings that need keyed control, the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard-duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty storeroom knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Dexter C2000 classroom ball knob lock is Grade 2 and keyed.
7) What is the closest Grade 2 privacy knob to the Bravura Bancroft privacy knobset?
The Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob lock is the nearest match on rating and function: it is a Grade 2 privacy/bed/bath knob lock, non-keyed, same as the Bancroft's Grade 2 privacy function. The Dexter covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, while the Bancroft is built for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors with extension kits offered for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch. The Dexter uses a plain ball knob; the Bancroft uses an arched trim rose with a solid brass knob.
8) What looks like a substitute for the Bravura Bancroft privacy knobset but will not lock the bathroom door?
Dummy knobs are the common mix-up. The Schlage A170 single dummy trim, the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, the Cal-Royal BA40 dummy knob and the Omnia 458/0 single dummy latchset all use a knob on a rose but have no latch action and no locking, so they are for closet or false doors only. The Bancroft is a privacy/bed/bath function with an interior locking mechanism and an exterior pin hole for emergency release.
9) I need a knob that handles doors thicker than 1-3/4 inch. Does the Bravura Bancroft work, or is there an alternative?
The Bancroft privacy knobset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors as standard, with extension kits offered for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch. Among peer knobs, the Deltana 3381 Egg, 6171 Round and 6112 St. Thomas all list 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 passage lock lists 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 passage knobset reaches 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Note that only the Deltana 6112 among those is a privacy function.
10) Does the Bravura Bancroft privacy knobset carry a fire rating, and what should I spec if I need one?
For openings where a fire-rated knob lock is required, the Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium-duty cylindrical knob lock with a fire rating and a passage/closet latch function on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy-duty fire-rated passage knobset with an interchangeable core. Both are passage functions rather than privacy. The Bravura Bancroft is a residential Grade 2 privacy knobset and offers a UL latch option alongside the drive-in latch.
11) Is the Bancroft privacy knob handed, or does one part number work on left and right doors?
It's reversible, so one knobset covers both left and right hand doors. Nothing to specify for handing, and nothing to swap in the field.
12) Can I use this privacy knobset on a bedroom closet or a hallway door?
You can, but you probably don't want to. The Bancroft privacy function locks from the inside, which is wrong on a closet where someone could be shut in, and unnecessary in a hall. For those openings use a passage set. Comparable non-locking options include the Corbin Russwin CK4410 Grade 2 passage knob or the Pamex FTF Grade 3 Baron passage lockset.
13) How does the Bravura Bancroft compare to a Baldwin or Deltana privacy knob?
All three are solid brass decorative privacy knobs. The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob uses an R027 rose, and the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore privacy set comes preconfigured with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, so there's no backset choice to make. The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. The Bancroft lets you choose 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset, ships with both round and square corner strikes, and covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors with extension kits available to 2-1/2 inches.
14) Is there a fire rated latch option for the Bravura Bancroft?
The Bancroft latch is offered in drive-in or UL versions. Which one you need depends on the opening, since a drive-in latch has no faceplate to mortise and suits a new bored door, while the UL latch is the one to specify where the door assembly calls for it.
15) Will the 1/2 inch throw on the Bancroft latch into the strike I already have in the frame?
The bolt throws 1/2 inch in solid brass, which is the normal projection for a residential bored latch, so it will engage an existing cylindrical strike pocket. If the old strike is worn or the corner style doesn't match, both a full lip round corner (9103) and a square corner (9102) strike come in the box.
16) Is there a lighter-duty privacy knob than the Bravura Bancroft for a low-traffic bedroom door?
Yes. The Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 privacy knob lockset over the same thickness range. Both sit one ANSI grade below the Bancroft, which is rated Grade 2 for privacy/bed/bath service. If you want to stay at Grade 2, keep the Bancroft.
17) I need a matching passage knob for the hall doors alongside the Bravura Bancroft privacy knobs. What works?
The Bancroft covers the privacy/bed/bath openings only. For hall and closet doors in the same knob format, the Dexter C2000 Series passage ball knob lock is Grade 2, non-keyed, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob lockset is Grade 3 over the same range. On the commercial side the Corbin Russwin CK4410 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage/closet cylindrical lock with a Global knob.
18) Which solid brass decorative privacy knobs compare to the Bravura Bancroft with arched trim?
Two decorative peers carry the same privacy function. The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob is a privacy/bed/bath knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, matching the Bancroft's standard 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range. The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is also a privacy/bed/bath function. The Bancroft itself is solid brass with an arched trim rose and a 1/2 inch solid brass latch throw.
19) What keyed entry knob pairs with the Bravura Bancroft privacy knobset on the same job?
The Bancroft is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath function, so entry doors need a separate keyed unit. Grade 2 keyed options include the Dexter C2000 entry/office ball knob lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Callan Edgewood entrance knobset. At Grade 3 there are the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway and the Pamex FTF Baron entrance/office lockset.
20) What finishes does the Bancroft privacy knobset come in?
Four: US15 Satin Nickel, US26 Polished Chrome, US10B Oil Rubbed Bronze, and US19 Black. If you're standardizing a house or a unit, all four are solid brass construction so the trim tone will carry across the matching Bancroft functions.
21) For a whole-house or multi-family package, is there a knob alternative to buying the Bravura Bancroft privacy knobset separately?
The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is sold as a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob comes as a 6-pack with adjustable backset. The Bravura Bancroft is ordered per opening with the backset specified as 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch and includes both round corner and square corner strikes in the box.
