Deltana 6173-26D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Deltana 6173 passage knob fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The 6173 round knob passage set covers doors from 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inch thick, so it handles both the older 1-3/8 inch interior doors and standard 1-3/4 inch stock without any spacer kit. That 2 inch top end also lets it go on thicker solid-core or built-up doors that a lot of residential knobs top out short of.
2) Does the Deltana 6173 knob work with a 2-3/8 inch backset, or do I need to order a 2-3/4?
Either one. The latch is adjustable for 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so you set it to match the cross-bore already in the door instead of specifying it at order time. Those are the two standard residential backsets, so a replacement on an existing prepped door will line up.
3) Is the Deltana 6173 a locking knob or does it just latch?
It just latches. The 6173 is a passage function, non-keyed with no locking at all, for halls, closets and any door you only need to hold shut. If you need the door to lock from inside for a bedroom or bath, that's a privacy function, and for a keyed door you want an entrance function set.
4) Is the Deltana 6173 knob rated for a commercial building or apartment turnover?
It's a residential-duty tubular knobset, so it suits single-family, condo interiors and light apartment work. For corridor doors, offices, schools or anything on a commercial spec, step up to a graded cylindrical lock: the Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 passage knob that also covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset good to 2-1/4 inch. The Dexter C2000 passage knob is a Grade 2 middle ground.
5) Can I use a Deltana 6173 to replace a knob on a door that's currently bored for a standard tubular lockset?
Yes, if the existing hardware is a tubular knobset in a standard prep. The 6173 is a tubular bored lockset with the adjustable 2-3/8 / 2-3/4 backset, so it drops into the cross-bore you already have as long as the door is between 1-3/8 and 2 inches thick. What it will not do is fill a mortise pocket, that needs a mortise lock, not a bored set.
6) What is a direct equivalent to the Deltana 6173 round knob passage set in a commercial Grade 2 knob?
The Deltana 6173 is a non-keyed tubular passage knob with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset, built for residential interior openings. If the same hall or closet opening needs a graded cylindrical set instead, the Corbin Russwin CK4410 is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lock with a Global knob and a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, and the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob is a Grade 2 non-clutching passage set over the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch range. Both hold the same latch-only passage function as the 6173, so no key or turn button is involved on either side of the door.
7) Which passage knob carries a fire rating for a rated corridor or stairwell door?
The Deltana 6173 is a residential interior passage knob. Where the opening is a rated door, the Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock with passage/closet latch function, a 2-3/4 inch backset and a fire rating, and the Falcon X101 is the Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset with a fire rating and an interchangeable core. Both perform the same latch-only function as the 6173 with no key and no turn button.
8) I need the same look as the Deltana 6173 but for a bedroom or bathroom door - what knob has a privacy lock?
The Deltana 6173 is non-keyed with a passage/hall/closet function, which means it has no locking mechanism at all. For a bedroom or bath, the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 knob lockset in privacy function with a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim over the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch range, and the Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob is a Grade 2 non-clutching privacy set. Each adds the interior turn button the 6173 does not have.
9) What do I order instead of the Deltana 6173 if the door needs to key?
The Deltana 6173 is non-keyed, so it cannot accept a cylinder. For a keyed opening, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway and a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike over the same thickness range, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office cylindrical lock with a Global knob and conventional cylinder covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
10) What is a Grade 1 passage knob alternative to the Deltana 6173 for a high traffic corridor?
The Deltana 6173 is a residential steel and zinc passage knob. Where the traffic calls for a heavy duty unit, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical non-keyed passage latch with the Orbit knob, and the Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 passage/closet cylindrical lock with a Global knob covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors - the same thickness range the 6173 covers. All three are latch-only, non-keyed passage function.
11) Do I have to specify handing on the Deltana 6173 round knob?
No handing to call out. The 6173 is universal, so the same set goes on a left or right hand door. With no lock function to orient, install is just the latch, the two knobs and the roses.
12) What finishes does the Deltana 6173 round knob come in?
Seven: PVD Polished Brass, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Antique Brass and Oil Rubbed Bronze. If you're matching a whole floor of doors, the PVD polished brass is the one to note, PVD holds its color far better than a lacquered brass on a high-touch knob.
13) I need a plain round passage knob for a whole house of closet doors. What are my options besides the Deltana 6173?
The 6173 is the round knob in the residential passage line, adjustable backset and non-keyed. Close alternatives: the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob ships as a 6-pack with adjustable backset, which is the cheapest way to do a house at once; the Bravura Albany is a round-trim passage knobset in Grade 2; and the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob is a Grade 3 option for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob comes with its own latch and round corner strike.
14) Is a passage knob the right choice for a bathroom door?
No. A passage set like the Deltana 6173 has no lock at all, it's non-keyed and latch-only, so a bathroom or bedroom needs a privacy function instead. Deltana offers privacy in the same knob styling, and comparable privacy knobs include the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy ball knob and the Cal-Royal BER20 Grade 3 privacy knob for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
15) Is a dummy knob the same thing as the Deltana 6173 passage knob?
No. The 6173 is a passage knob with a working latch, so the knob turns and retracts a latch bolt. A dummy knob is surface mounted trim that does not turn a latch at all - the Schlage A170 is a Grade 2 single dummy trim, the BEST 6K single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed unit, and the Bravura Biloxi round trim dummy knobset is Grade 2. Those are for a fixed inactive leaf or a closet door held by a catch, not for an opening that needs to latch.
16) Which other passage knobsets have an adjustable backset like the Deltana 6173?
The 6173 ships with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so one part fits either bore layout. Among other round knob passage sets, the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is sold as a 6-pack with an adjustable backset, and the Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Fixed-backset options exist as well: the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore passage knob comes preconfigured with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, and the Falcon W101 is set at 2-3/4 inch.
17) I am standardizing interior passage knobs across an apartment building - what round knob options besides the Deltana 6173 should I look at?
The 6173 is a universal-hand round knob passage set in seven finishes including polished chrome, brushed nickel, and oil rubbed bronze, so it drops onto any interior door regardless of swing. For the same round-trim passage function from other lines, the Bravura Albany and Bravura Lynchburg are Grade 2 passage knobsets with round trim, the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 passage knob lockset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is offered as a 6-pack for multi-door work.
18) What replaces the Deltana 6173 on a storage or supply room door that has to latch locked?
The 6173 is a passage function set with no locking at all, so it will not hold a storage room secure. Storeroom function knob locks handle that opening: the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder, and the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset. Both keep the outside knob locked and key-operated while the inside knob always retracts the latch.
19) Can I use the Deltana 6173 as a keyless entry knob, or do I need a combination lock?
The 6173 is a non-keyed passage knob - it always turns freely from both sides and has no code entry. For a keyless opening, the Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function and a 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, which overlaps the 1-3/8 to 2 inch range the 6173 covers.
20) How does the Deltana 6173 compare to the Arrow MK01 and RK01 passage knobs?
All three are non-keyed passage/hall/closet knobs. The Arrow MK01 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage knob lock in the MK Series and the Arrow RK01 is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lock with a ball knob in the RK Series, both fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Deltana 6173 is a tubular round knob set for residential interiors, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset.
21) What solid brass passage knob works where the Deltana 6173 zinc knob is not the right material?
The 6173 is a steel and zinc knob. If the job calls for solid brass in the same latch-operating passage function, the Omnia 434/PA is a traditional egg-shaped knob latchset in solid brass with a 3 inch projection, and the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose is another passage-function option. Note the Omnia knob is egg-shaped rather than round.
