Bravura BV936-261 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Bravura Nashville privacy knobset fit a standard pre-bored door?
Yes, it drops into standard residential prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore, and a 1 inch x 2-1/4 inch latch face. That is the same prep almost every residential knob uses, so on a door that already had a knob you are usually replacing hardware without touching the wood.
2) What door thickness does the Bravura Nashville knobset work on, and what about a thick door?
The Nashville privacy knob covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch doors as supplied. For thicker doors, extension kits are available for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch thicknesses, so a heavy custom or double-panel door is still workable, you just have to order the kit with it.
3) Which backset do I order for a Bravura Nashville knobset, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4?
Backset is a required choice at ordering, 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing bore: 2-3/8 inch is the usual residential interior backset and 2-3/4 inch shows up on wider stile and some commercial-prepped doors. 2-3/8 inch is the standard here, 2-3/4 inch is the option.
4) Will the Nashville privacy knob latch into the strike plate already on my door frame?
The latch has a 1/2 inch solid brass throw with a 1 inch x 2-1/4 inch round corner faceplate, which is standard residential latching depth, so an existing residential strike normally catches it. Both strikes ship in the box anyway: a full lip round corner 9103 and a square corner 9102, so you can match whatever mortise is already cut in the jamb.
5) Does a privacy knob need a key, and how do you get in if someone locks the bathroom?
No key and no cylinder. The Nashville privacy function locks from the inside only, which is what you want on a bedroom or bathroom. The outside face has a small pin hole so you can release the lock from the hallway in an emergency with a straightened wire or an emergency key tool.
6) What is the closest Grade 2 privacy knob equivalent to the Bravura Nashville with arched trim?
The Dexter C2000 Series privacy ball knob lock is the nearest match on rating and function: it is a Grade 2 cylindrical knob lock in Privacy/Bed/Bath function, the same grade and function as the Nashville arched trim privacy knobset. The C2000 privacy knob is non-clutching and non-keyed, and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Nashville is solid brass with a 1/2 inch solid brass bolt throw and covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch doors, with extension kits for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch. The knob shape differs - the Dexter is a ball knob, the Nashville carries an arched trim rose.
7) I need the same knob on a hall or closet door where no lock is wanted - what do I use?
Use a passage knob instead. The Dexter C2000 Series passage ball knob is a Grade 2 non-keyed Passage/Hall/Closet knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, matching the Grade 2 rating of the Bravura Nashville arched trim knobset. Corbin Russwin CK4410 is another Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical knob over the same thickness range. The Bravura Nashville is a privacy knobset - it has an interior locking button and an exterior emergency pin hole - so it is the wrong function for a closet or hall door that should never latch locked.
8) The bathroom door is in a commercial building with heavy traffic - is a Grade 2 residential privacy knob the right call?
For heavy-traffic commercial openings, look at the Grade 1 heavy duty knob locks: Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knob in the D Series, Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset with an interchangeable core, fire rated, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Bravura Nashville arched trim knobset is Grade 2 and specified for residential use. Note that those Grade 1 options are passage and storeroom functions, not privacy, so they do not give a bed/bath interior lock.
9) Does the Bravura Nashville knob need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The Nashville knobset is reversible, so one part number works on a left or right hand door. For a property manager buying several at once that matters, you order by finish and backset only and any unit fits any opening.
10) Is a Grade 2 knob strong enough for an apartment or rental bedroom door?
The Nashville is built to exceed ANSI Grade 2 on the internal mechanics but is classified residential, so it suits apartments, rentals and single family interiors. For a corridor or a commercial building where the door gets institutional traffic, step up to a commercial cylindrical lock like the Sargent 8XG04 Grade 1 or Schlage D Series Grade 1 instead.
11) What is the difference between a privacy knob and a passage knob for a bedroom?
Privacy locks, passage does not. The Nashville privacy version locks from the bedroom or bath side with an outside pin hole release. If the door is a hall, closet or laundry that never needs locking, buy a passage set instead, such as the Corbin Russwin CK4410 Grade 2 or the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage knob. Both functions use the same bored prep, so the choice is purely about whether the door has to lock.
12) What is a comparable privacy knob to the Bravura Nashville if I want a different look?
Two close substitutes in the same function: the Dexter C2000 Series Grade 2 privacy ball knob, which matches on grade and covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob, which covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors like the Nashville does. If you want a cheaper tier for a low-traffic interior, the Pamex FTF Baron and the Cal-Royal BER20 are Grade 3 privacy knobs for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) Can I use the Bravura Nashville privacy knob on a door with a drive-in latch instead of a faceplate?
Yes. The Nashville latch is offered as a drive-in as well as a UL type, so if the door edge has no mortise cut for a faceplate you can specify the drive-in and skip the routing. Standard supply is the 1 inch x 2-1/4 inch round corner faceplate latch.
14) Will a dummy knob work in place of the Bravura Nashville privacy knob on a bathroom door?
No. Dummy knobs such as the Schlage A170 single dummy trim, the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, and the Cal-Royal BA40 dummy knob are fixed trim with no latch and no locking mechanism. The Bravura Nashville arched trim knobset is a privacy function knobset with an interior locking mechanism and an exterior emergency pin hole, and it operates a latch with a 1/2 inch solid brass throw into a supplied strike. Dummy trim is for inactive leaves and closet pairs, not a door that has to latch and lock.
15) What privacy knob has a similar decorative solid brass look to the Bravura Nashville?
Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch in Privacy/Bed/Bath function, and the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose and the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with 5148 rose are both privacy-function decorative knobs. The Bravura Nashville arched trim knobset is solid brass, reversible, and matches the 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range of the Deltana 6112, with extension kits for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch doors. Trim styling is what separates them - the Nashville uses an arched trim rose.
16) I am standardizing bedroom and bath doors across a building - is there a privacy knob that comes as a matched set with the passage doors?
Two ways to match across an opening set. The Dexter C2000 Series runs the same Grade 2 ball knob in privacy, passage, entry/office and classroom functions, so every door in the building takes the same knob with a different function. The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob ships as a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Bravura Nashville arched trim privacy knobset comes in US15 Satin Nickel, US10B Oil Rubbed Bronze, US19 Black and US26 Polished Chrome, and is supplied with both a full lip round corner strike (9103) and a square corner strike (9102), so it drops into either existing door prep.
17) Is the Bravura Nashville knob solid brass or plated pot metal?
Solid brass, including the latch bolt, which is called out as a 1/2 inch solid brass throw. That matters on a bathroom door where humidity punishes cheaper zinc components, and it is why the finish holds up on a knob that gets handled dozens of times a day.
