Deltana 6171 Round Knob Entry

The 6171 uses a Kwikset keyway compatible cylinder, so it can be keyed into an existing Kwikset-keyed system. It is a single cylinder entry function: key outside, thumbturn or button inside. Keying is specified at order time as keyed different or keyed alike, and there is a field for keying to an existing key code if you want it cut to a key you already carry.

No handing to call out. The 6171 is universal, so the same set works on a left or right hand door swinging in or out. That also means one part number covers a whole run of openings in a house or a unit turnover, rather than splitting the order by swing.

It is a residential lock. The 6171 is a tubular bored knobset built for houses and residential interiors, not for the cycle counts on a commercial or common-area opening. If you are hanging a knob on a corridor, office, or institutional door, look at a commercial cylindrical set instead: the BEST 8K Series entrance knob lock is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office knob lock also carries a Grade 1 rating with a 1-3/8 to 2 inch thickness range that matches the 6171's.

In most cases yes. The 6171 is a tubular bored knobset with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the same two-backset arrangement a standard residential prep uses, and its Kwikset compatible keyway means an existing Kwikset key can be carried over. What you should confirm on the door is the cross bore and the edge bore of the existing prep, since a knob only drops in when the bore layout matches. A Kwikset 400P Polo keyed entry knob is the direct same-brand-keyway alternative if you want to stay literally in the Kwikset line.

The Deltana 6171 fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Among the cylindrical knob locks, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage knob and the CK4851 Grade 1 entrance/office knob also reach 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 goes to 2-1/4 inch. The Grade 2 sets stop earlier: the Corbin Russwin CK4410, the Arrow MK01 and RK01, and the Dexter C2000 knobs all list 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. On a solid core or a door with an added face, measure before ordering, since a set that stops at 1-3/4 inch will not close up on the thicker leaf.

The Cal-Royal BER00 is an entrance/office knob lock built with a Kwikset keyway, the same keyway family the Deltana 6171 accepts, and it is a Grade 3 knob lock fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The 6171 is a single cylinder entry knob with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset and a wider 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, so on a thicker door the Deltana covers what the BER00 does not. Both key into an existing Kwikset system without rekeying the rest of the building.

For a commercial opening, the BEST 8K Series entrance function knob lock is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder knob, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical knob with a conventional cylinder that fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Deltana 6171 is a residential entry knob with a tubular lock chassis, so on a high-traffic corridor or tenant service door the Grade 1 cylindrical chassis is the one written on the spec. Where the door is an apartment interior or a light-use unit door, the 6171 covers the same entry function.

The Deltana 6171 is a keyed single cylinder entry knob, so for a hall, closet, or pantry door the equivalent non-keyed knob is a passage set such as the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob, Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, or the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage ball knob over the same thickness range. For a bedroom or bath that needs a thumbturn but no key, the Pamex FTF Baron privacy and the Dexter C2000 privacy knob are the same chassis in privacy function.

No. An entry knob unlocks from the inside knob and can be left unlocked, which is what the Deltana 6171 does as a single cylinder entry set. For a door that must stay locked to the outside and always free to exit, the storeroom function is the one to order: the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder, and the Sargent 8XG04 is the Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom knob with a 2-3/4 inch backset. For a classroom door, the Dexter C2000 classroom ball knob is Grade 2 and keyed, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.

For a fire rated opening, order hardware that carries a fire rating: the Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock with a fire rating and a 2-3/4 inch backset in passage/closet function, and the Falcon X101 is the Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated cylindrical knobset with an interchangeable core for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Deltana 6171 is a residential entry knob and belongs on unit and interior doors rather than a rated assembly.

Entry means keyed from the outside and locking from the inside, which is what you want on an exterior door or a unit door. A passage knob just latches and never locks, for a hall or closet. A privacy knob locks with a push button or turn and has no key, for a bedroom or bath. The 6171 is the keyed entry version. If you need the other functions in a similar knob format, the Pamex FTF Baron is offered in Grade 3 entrance/office, privacy, and passage, and the Dexter C2000 Series covers entry/office, privacy, passage and classroom in a Grade 2 ball knob.

Seven finishes: PVD polished brass, oil rubbed bronze, brushed nickel, antique nickel, polished chrome, brushed chrome, and antique brass. The PVD polished brass is the one to pick if the knob sees weather or heavy handling on an exterior door, since PVD is the harder-wearing plating of the brass options. For a whole-house or turnover job, pick one finish across entry, and match the other openings to it.

Yes. Keyed alike is one of the two keying choices when you order the 6171, so a set of them can be ordered to operate on a single key across a house, a rental unit, or a set of outbuildings. Keyed different is the other option if each door needs its own key, and there is a separate entry for keying to a specific key code you already have on file.

The 6171 is a residential round knob entry set. If your spec sheet asks for an ANSI grade, several graded entry knobs cover the same job: the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob that also uses a Kwikset keyway, so it keys the same way; the Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset; and the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 single cylinder knob lock in storeroom function if you want the door to stay locked outside at all times. Grade 1 sets like the BEST 8K are the heavy duty end.

Both are keyed entry knobs, but they are not the same part. The Kwikset 400P-CP is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch and ships with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. The Deltana 6171 is a single cylinder entry knob with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset that fits doors 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inch. Because the 6171 takes a Kwikset keyway, the two can run on one key system in a building already keyed to Kwikset.

For a keyed entry knob on the same type of interior or unit door, the Callan Edgewood and Callan Roland are Grade 2 entrance knobsets, the Callan Canova and Callan Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets, and Delaney offers the Belton, Galway, and Olivia as Grade 3 entrance knobsets. The Deltana 6171 is a round knob entry set offered in PVD Polished Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, and Antique Brass, which is the widest finish spread of the group for matching existing hardware across a set of doors.

Not on a door that needs to lock with a key. The Emtek Porcelain knobs ship as two knobs per set with a threaded rod, and the Emtek Georgetown and Providence crystal knobsets and the Omnia 434/0 and 442/00 are dummy function - they mount to the door face and do not latch or key. The Deltana 6171 is a keyed single cylinder entry knob with an operating tubular latch. Use a dummy knob only on an inactive leaf or a closet door held by a ball catch.

The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, which covers a unit in one order. The Deltana 6171 is the entry knob alone, keyed single cylinder with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, and it pairs with passage and privacy knobs for the interior doors. Choosing the 6171 also lets the entry doors across units be keyed alike or keyed to an existing code.

The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch, so tenants or crews enter on a code and there is no key to issue or collect. The Deltana 6171 is the keyed route, a single cylinder entry knob on a Kwikset keyway that can be keyed alike across doors or cut to an existing code. Pick the Lockey where turnover makes key control the problem, and the 6171 where the building already runs one key system.

The Dexter C2000 Grade 2 entry/office cylindrical ball knob is keyed and non-clutching for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset. The Deltana 6171 is a residential single cylinder entry knob in steel and zinc with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset, so it suits unit and interior doors while the Grade 2 cylindrical sets are the ones that answer a light commercial spec.

Steel and zinc through the lockset body and knob, with the finish applied over it. That is the usual construction for a residential bored knob and it is fine for interior and standard entry duty. If a job calls for solid brass, Omnia's traditional knob latchsets, such as the 434/PA passage, are solid brass instead.
