Emtek Classic Brass Key In Knobset - Providence Knob with Rosette Options - Single Cylinder

The Providence key-in knobset covers doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. It ships set up for 1-3/4 inch as standard, so if your door is thicker than that you need to state the actual thickness when you order (there's a door thickness field on the order for exactly that). For a 1-3/8 inch door no special call-out is needed.

Both backsets are offered, 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch, but 2-3/8 is what ships unless you say otherwise. Pick 2-3/4 on the backset option if that's your prep. Measure from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch cross bore to confirm which one you have before ordering, since the wrong latch won't reach the strike.

Standard tubular prep is all it needs: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. That's the same bore pattern a typical residential door already carries, so on a door that's currently wearing a cylindrical knob you're swapping hardware, not drilling new holes.

Yes. The Providence knobset ships with a Schlage C keyway as standard, but a Weiser (WR5) cylinder is offered as a substitution at no upcharge, and it can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. Choose the Weiser keyway option when ordering. If your building is on Schlage C, take the standard cylinder instead.

Keyed alike is a free option on the Providence knobset, so a whole house or unit can run on one key. Keyed different is the alternative if each door needs its own. There's also a keying-to-code field, so if you already have a key code for the building you can order to it and the locks arrive matching what's on the other doors.

It's built as residential hardware, so it suits houses, condos, and interior unit doors rather than a high-traffic commercial opening. For a leased office, a stairwell, or any door under constant use, go to a graded commercial cylindrical lock instead: the BEST 8K Series entrance knob lock is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Cheaper step down, the Dexter C2000 entry/office knob is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Emtek Providence key-in knobset is a tubular cylindrical lock with an entry function and a single cylinder, built in brass for residential openings. If the same keyed knob is needed in a commercial-graded product, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical lock with a Global knob and a conventional cylinder, covering doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches thick. The BEST 8K Series entrance-function knob lock is also Grade 1 heavy duty with a single cylinder. Both trade the Providence knob styling for a graded cylindrical chassis, so a decorative brass knob face is not part of them.

The Providence knobset is a residential brass key-in knob. Facility openings that call for a rated chassis are better served by the Sargent 8XG04, a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder and a 2-3/4 inch backset, or the Falcon X101, a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical knobset with an interchangeable core, fire rated, for doors 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. For a keyed classroom function, the Dexter C2000 classroom ball knob is Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches.

The Emtek Providence ships with a Schlage C keyway as standard and can be ordered with a Weiser WR5 cylinder instead by adding a W to the front of the product code, at no upcharge, so it can be keyed into an existing Weiser system. It does not offer a Kwikset keyway. Where a Kwikset keyway is the requirement, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches.

The Emtek Providence is an entry-function knobset, where the inside knob unlocks the outside. Where the outside knob must stay locked and open by key only, that is a storeroom function: 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 version with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in a storeroom function from the ED-500 Series.

Single cylinder means key outside, thumbturn or button inside, no key needed to get out. That's the standard entry setup for a front or unit door. Where there's glass within reach of the inside knob, a single cylinder is what most codes want anyway because egress doesn't depend on a key, but the flip side is that breaking the glass gets someone to the inside operation. If that's the concern, the answer is laminated or a different opening design, not a different cylinder count here, since this knobset is offered single cylinder only.

No handing to call out on the knob version. Emtek requires handing on its leversets, since a lever has to point toward the latch, but a round knob is symmetrical and works on a left or right hand door either way. You still need to know your backset and door thickness, which are the two things that actually decide fit here.

Four Classic Brass rosettes back the Providence knob: the #8, the Rectangular, the Regular, and the Rope (the Rope is offered in a limited finish range). Finishes run ten deep: Flat Black US19, French Antique US7, Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Pewter US15A, Polished Brass Lifetime US3, Polished Chrome US26, Polished Nickel Lifetime US14, Satin Brass US4, Satin Nickel US15, and Unlacquered Brass US3NL. Unlacquered brass will patina with handling; the two Lifetime finishes are the ones that stay put. There's also a split finish field if you want a different finish inside than out.

Staying in the traditional solid brass world, Deltana's entry knobs are the closest cross-shop: the 6901 Portland knob covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the 3381 Egg knob and 6171 Round knob both go 1-3/8 to 2 inches, which is the one to look at if your door is thicker than 1-3/4. Baldwin's Estate 5000 line is the other traditional option, though it's offered in passage and privacy rather than keyed entry. For a plainer builder-grade keyed knob, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.

No, don't key an interior door. The Providence knobset here is entry function, keyed outside with an inside turn, which is what you want on an exterior or unit door. Bedrooms and baths take a privacy set (push button, emergency release outside) and halls and closets take a passage set with no locking at all. Same rosette family, different function, so you can run one look across the house with the right function on each door.

The Providence is a brass key-in knobset with a single cylinder and a choice of four Classic Brass rosettes. Where the decorative rosette and brass finish range are not needed, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is a Grade 3 entrance lock for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, supplied with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. The Master Lock BC01 is another Grade 3 keyed entry knob, with a biscuit knob shape. Both are plain round knobs rather than a styled traditional knob on a selectable rose.

The Providence is keyed with a single cylinder, so a non-keyed knob is the right part for a hall or closet opening. Among traditional brass knobs, the Omnia 434/PA is a passage latchset in solid brass with a 3 inch projection, and the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial is a passage knob on the 5058 rose. For a graded passage knob, the Corbin Russwin CK4410 is Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches and the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage latch with an Orbit knob.

No. Those are dummy trims. The Omnia 458/0 and the Omnia 442/00 are single dummy knob latchsets in solid brass, and a dummy knob is fixed trim with no latch operation. The Emtek Providence is a keyed entry knobset with a single cylinder. Dummy knobs are the right choice for an inactive leaf of a pair, not for an entry door that has to latch and lock.

The Providence key-in knobset is a traditional-style brass knob with an entry function. In the same traditional brass vein, the Deltana 6901 Portland is an entry knob for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, and the Deltana 3381 Egg and Deltana 6171 Round are entry knobs covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. The Providence differs in giving a choice of rosette shape - #8, rectangular, regular, and rope - and in taking either a Schlage C or a Weiser WR5 keyway.

The Providence is a keyed knobset with a single cylinder, so every user carries a key. Where a code is preferred to a key, the Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 to 2 inches thick. It is a mechanical combination entry rather than a cylinder-keyed one, so it cannot be keyed into an existing Schlage or Weiser master system the way the Providence can.

The Providence is a residential brass key-in knobset with an entry function. For a fleet of units where a graded chassis is preferred, the Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset and the Dexter C2000 entry/office is a Grade 2 keyed ball knob for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. Stepping down, the Callan Canova and Callan Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets, as is the Pamex FTF Baron in the entrance/office function over the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch range.

No. The Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim - a knob and rose that mounts to a 28 Series exit device on a 1-3/4 inch door - and the Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only with the B design for the 7800 Series. Neither is a standalone lock. The Emtek Providence is a complete tubular knobset with its own latch and single cylinder, mounting into a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset.

Brass, both material and substrate, part of Emtek's Classic Brass collection. That matters on exterior doors and on unlacquered or living finishes, where a plated zinc knob shows wear through to the base metal and a brass one doesn't.

Purely mechanical. It's a keyed tubular cylindrical lockset with no electronic component, so there's no wiring, no batteries, and no app. If you need keypad or remote access on that opening, this isn't the platform for it.
