Bravura BV936-166 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What door prep does the Bravura Nashville knobset need, and will it drop into an existing bore?
Standard cylindrical prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore, and a 1 x 2-1/4 inch latch face. If your door already has a standard 2-1/8 inch bored prep from another knob or lever, the Nashville goes straight in with no new drilling. Just match the backset of the existing edge bore.
2) Do I need to pick a backset when ordering the Bravura Nashville privacy knob?
Yes, backset is a required choice: 2-3/8 inch (standard) or 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing bore. Interior residential doors are usually 2-3/8 inch; 2-3/4 inch shows up more on wider stile or commercial-style doors.
3) Will the Nashville latch work with the strike plate already in my frame?
The bolt has a 1/2 inch solid brass throw and the faceplate is 1 x 2-1/4 inch with round corners, which is the common residential latch footprint. Two strikes ship with the set, a full lip round corner (9103) and a square corner (9102), so you can match either a round-corner or square-corner frame mortise instead of rechiseling.
4) Is a privacy knobset the right function for a bathroom or bedroom door?
Yes. Privacy function means a push or turn lock on the inside only, with no key. The outside face has a small pin hole so the door can be released from the hall in an emergency. If you want a keyed lock for an exterior or office door, privacy is the wrong function; if you want no lock at all on a hall or closet door, use a passage set instead.
5) What is the closest Grade 2 privacy knob to the Bravura Nashville from another brand?
The Dexter C2000 Series privacy ball knob is the closest straight equivalent: it is a Grade 2 cylindrical privacy/bed/bath knob lock, non-keyed and non-clutching, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Bravura Nashville is also a Grade 2 privacy/bed/bath cylindrical knobset, with a rectangle trim rose and solid brass construction, and it covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch doors with extension kits offered for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch. The Dexter uses a ball knob, so the visual difference is the knob and rose style rather than the function.
6) What should I use instead of the Bravura Nashville privacy knob on a commercial or high-traffic opening?
The Bravura Nashville is a Grade 2 knobset specified for residential use. For heavier openings, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset that carries a fire rating, and the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knob lock. Note that those are storeroom and passage functions rather than privacy, so if you need bed/bath locking on a commercial door the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy knob is the closer match.
7) Will a dummy knob work in place of the Bravura Nashville privacy knob?
No. Dummy trims such as the Schlage A170 single dummy, the BEST 6K Series single dummy, the Cal-Royal BA40, and the Omnia 458/0 single dummy are surface-mounted trim with no latch and no locking mechanism, so they cannot secure a bedroom or bathroom door. The Bravura Nashville is a privacy/bed/bath knobset with an interior locking mechanism and an exterior pin hole for emergency release, and it works a 1/2 inch solid brass latch bolt into a prepped 2-1/8 inch cross bore. Dummy knobs are for closet and double doors that are held by a ball catch or roller catch instead.
8) Can I use the Bravura Nashville on a 2 inch thick door, or do I need a different knobset?
The Bravura Nashville covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch doors as supplied, with extension kits offered for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch. Among comparable knob locks, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage and the Deltana 6171 Round Knob entry also reach 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage knobset goes to 2-1/4 inch. Many Grade 2 and Grade 3 knobs stop at 1-3/4 inch, including the Dexter C2000 privacy knob and the Pamex FTF Baron privacy set, so on thick doors the Nashville is the one that fits without a special order.
9) Does handing matter on the Bravura Nashville knobset?
No. The Nashville is reversible, so one set covers left-hand and right-hand doors. Useful if you are buying a batch for a building and do not want to count swings door by door.
10) Is the Bravura Nashville knobset rated for commercial use?
It is a residential lockset built to exceed ANSI Grade 2 internal mechanics. For a light-traffic commercial opening it may serve, but for a high-cycle commercial door a purpose-built commercial Grade 2 or Grade 1 cylindrical lock is the better call, such as the Corbin Russwin CK4400 Series Grade 2 or the Schlage D Series Grade 1.
11) If I want a decorative solid brass privacy knob rather than the Bravura Nashville, what else is comparable?
Two decorative privacy knobs to look at are the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with the R027 rose and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob, which covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore privacy set comes preconfigured with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a full lip strike. The Bravura Nashville is solid brass with a rectangle trim rose, ships with both a full lip round corner strike and a square corner strike, and is offered in US15 satin nickel, US10B oil rubbed bronze, US19 black, and US26 polished chrome. The choice comes down to rose shape and finish family rather than function.
12) Is there a lower-grade privacy knob option if Grade 2 is more than the bedroom doors need?
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 for the same thickness range. The Bravura Nashville is built to Grade 2 with solid brass construction and a 1/2 inch solid brass latch throw, and it handles doors from 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inch with extension kits available for 2-1/4 inch and 2-1/2 inch. For a run of interior bedroom and bath doors on standard 1-3/8 inch stock, either Grade 3 option covers the function; the Nashville gives you the higher cycle rating and the wider thickness coverage.
13) What matches the Bravura Nashville privacy knob for the hall and closet doors that do not need to lock?
Privacy is the only function the Nashville is built in, so pair it with a passage knob on the non-locking openings. Grade 2 passage knobs include the Corbin Russwin CK4410 Global knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob, the Arrow MK01 and the Arrow RK01 ball knob, and the Falcon W101 with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a fire rating. The Nashville itself is offered with either a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, so match the backset you ordered when you pick the passage sets.
14) What is the difference between the Bravura Nashville privacy knob and a keyed entry knob for a bathroom door?
They lock differently. Keyed sets such as the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office Grade 3 knob with a Kwikset keyway, the Kwikset 400P-CP Grade 3 keyed entry knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 entry/office ball knob all require a cylinder and a key from the outside. The Bravura Nashville locks from the inside only and releases through a small pin hole on the exterior, which is what code and practice call for on bedroom and bathroom doors where an occupant may need to be reached from outside without a key.
15) Can I get a drive-in latch instead of a faceplate latch for the Nashville?
Yes, the latch is offered in drive-in as well as UL versions. Drive-in is handy on a new bore where no latch mortise has been cut, since it presses into the 1 inch edge bore without chiseling a faceplate pocket.
