Deltana 6901 Portland Knob Entry

No. The latch shipped with the 6901 Portland entry knob is adjustable for either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, the two backsets used on bored doors, so one part covers both preps. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore only if you want to preset it before you get to the opening.

Not handed. The Portland 6901 is a universal-hand knobset, so the same part works on left and right hand doors, inswing or outswing. For a property manager buying for a whole building, that means one line item instead of splitting the order by hand.

The 6901 uses a Kwikset keyway compatible cylinder, so it can be cut to a Kwikset-profile key. Keying is specified at the time of order: choose keyed different or keyed alike, and if you want it matched to an existing key you supply the bitting code with the order. It is a single cylinder entry function, key outside, thumbturn or button inside.

If the old lock was a standard bored (tubular) knob lock, yes. The Portland 6901 is a tubular knobset with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset and fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so it uses the same cross-bore and edge bore as a typical residential knob. It will not go into a mortise pocket or a deadbolt-only bore.

For commercial traffic, step up to a graded cylindrical lock. The BEST 8K Series entrance knob lock is Grade 1 heavy duty with a single cylinder, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical lock with a conventional cylinder that covers doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. In the middle, the Dexter C2000 entry/office ball knob is Grade 2 and keyed, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Deltana 6901 Portland entry knob is a residential tubular lockset, so those commercial series are where to go when a duty grade is on the drawing.

The Deltana 6901 Portland entry knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker door, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office cylindrical lock with a conventional cylinder is rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Among non-keyed options in that wider range, the Falcon X101 cylindrical passage knobset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch and the Corbin Russwin CK4310 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.

For a labeled opening, look at the Falcon W101 Grade 2 cylindrical knob lock, which carries a fire rating with a 2-3/4 inch backset in passage/closet function, or the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset with interchangeable core, also fire rated and covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Deltana 6901 Portland entry knob is a residential tubular lockset intended for interior and residential entry use.

Yes. Keying is a required selection on the order: keyed alike puts every unit on the same key, keyed different gives each its own. There is also a field for keying to a specific code if you are matching an existing Kwikset-keyway master or house key.

No. The Deltana 6901 Portland is a residential tubular entry knobset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. A classroom opening calls for the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 classroom cylindrical ball knob lock, which is keyed and fits the same door range. For trim on an exit device, the Sargent 28C-KNOB exit device trim with knob and rose is an entrance function built for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is storeroom function knob trim.

The Deltana 6901 Portland knob is an entry function with a single cylinder, so for a hall, closet or bedroom door you want a different function entirely. Passage options include the Pamex FTF Baron Grade 3 passage knob and the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage ball knob, both fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a bath or bedroom that needs a thumbturn, the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob and the Cal-Royal BER20 privacy knob are Grade 3 and cover the same door thickness range.

Comparable decorative entrance knobsets include the Callan Edgewood and Callan Roland, both Grade 2 entrance function, and the Grade 3 Callan Canova and Callan Santo. Delaney also offers the Belton, Galway and Olivia as Grade 3 entrance knobsets, plus the Brookhaven entry knobset. The Deltana 6901 Portland entry knob is a residential single cylinder tubular knob offered in PVD Polished Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome and Antique Brass, so finish matching across a house is straightforward.

No, those are different functions. The Emtek Porcelain knobs ship as two knobs per set with a threaded rod, and the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg, Georgetown and Providence knobsets are dummy pairs. Omnia 434/0, 442/00 and 458/0 are single dummy latchsets, and the Omnia 434/PA is a passage latchset. None of those are keyed. The Deltana 6901 Portland entry knob is a keyed single cylinder entry lock, so a dummy or passage knob will not secure the opening.

Yes. The Deltana 6901 Portland entry knob ships with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset and universal handing. The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob combo pack also uses adjustable backsets with dual strikes on 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob 6-pack is supplied with an adjustable backset for multi-door jobs.

The Deltana 6901 Portland knob is an entry function, where the inside knob can be locked by turn button and unlocked with a key outside. For a storeroom, where the outside knob stays locked at all times, look at the Sargent 6G04 Grade 2 storeroom/closet knob lock with single cylinder or the Sargent 8XG04 Grade 1 storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
