Delaney Galway - Grade 3 Dummy Door Knob

The Delaney Galway dummy knob is a pull only. There is no latch, no spindle turn, and no lock: the knob mounts rigidly to the face of the door and you pull it open. It's used on closet doors, pantry doors, and on the inactive leaf of a double door where a latch isn't needed, or as a look-alike counterpart to functioning hardware on nearby openings.

The Galway dummy is specified for a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, so it drops into a door already bored for a standard cylindrical lockset. On a brand new slab with no prep, you'd still bore 2-1/8 inch to mount it as intended.

The Galway dummy knob is classified as residential and Grade 3, and it is dummy trim with no latch. For a commercial opening, look at the Falcon W101 Grade 2 medium duty passage knob, which carries a fire rating, or the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset, also fire rated. For commercial dummy trim specifically, the Schlage A170 is Grade 2 heavy duty and the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty.

The Delaney Galway dummy knob is a single dummy: it mounts as trim only and has no latch. If the door needs to stay closed, order a passage function knob instead. At the same Grade 3 level, the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Grade 2 passage options include the Dexter C2000 ball knob and the Corbin Russwin CK4410, both also 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For heavy traffic, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage latch.

For a commercial-grade single dummy knob, the Schlage A170 is the closest counterpart. It is a single dummy trim cylindrical knob rated ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and heavy duty, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch thick. The Galway dummy is a Grade 3 residential single dummy knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Both are non-keyed trim with no latch, so the door prep is the same idea; the Schlage steps up the grade and duty level for higher-traffic openings. The BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is another option at Grade 2, medium duty.

No. The Delaney Galway dummy knob is a non-keyed dummy with no latch and no locking mechanism. For a bed or bath door, use a privacy function knob. At Grade 3, the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob and the Cal-Royal BER20 privacy knob both cover doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. At Grade 2, the Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob covers the same thickness range.

The Delaney Galway dummy knob is built for standard doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For thicker doors, the Schlage A170 single dummy trim covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. Among non-keyed latching knobs, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.

Both. The Galway dummy ships with combination screws that work for either wood or metal door mounting, so a hollow metal closet door and a wood slab take the same set.

Single dummy means one knob for one face of the door. If you need knobs on both sides of a closet or a French door leaf, order two, or look at a product sold as a dummy pair, like the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg dummy pair or the Emtek Georgetown crystal dummy pair.

That's one of its normal uses. Because the dummy has no latch or bore-through spindle, it mounts to the face of the inactive leaf purely as a pull, while the active leaf carries the functioning lockset. Confirm the inactive leaf has or can take a 2-1/8 inch cross bore for mounting.

The Delaney Galway dummy is a single dummy, meaning one knob for one face of the door. If both faces or both leaves of a pair need trim, Emtek sells dummy knobsets as a pair, including the Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg dummy pair and the Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown and Providence dummy pairs. Ordering two Galway singles is the alternative if you want a matched knob on each face.

The Galway dummy is a non-keyed counterpart meant to sit alongside functioning hardware, so for a keyed opening you need a separate entrance knob. At the same Grade 3 level, the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office knob with a Kwikset keyway and the Pamex FTF Baron entrance/office knob both fit doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is Grade 3 over the same range. Callan offers Grade 3 entrance knobsets in the Canova and Santo series. Match the finish to the Galway's US32D stainless steel or US3 polished brass.

Two: US32D stainless steel, which reads as a brushed satin, and US3 polished brass. If you're matching other openings in a unit, US32D is the one that lines up with the satin chrome and satin stainless hardware most commonly already on the doors.
