Emtek 8200.E.US15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek Egg privacy knob fit a standard 1-3/8 inch interior door with a 2-1/8 inch bore?
Yes. The Egg knob privacy set works on doors from 1-3/8 inches to 2-1/4 inches thick with the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore prep, so a typical bedroom or bath door needs no new boring. One exception: if you pick the STRETTO rosette, the privacy thumbturn needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole door prep instead, which means drilling above the main bore. Every other brass rosette drops into the standard prep.
2) Do I need to order the 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset for an Emtek Egg knob privacy set?
Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore. Most residential doors are 2-3/8 inches, and that is the standard latch supplied. Doors with wider stiles, often exterior or heavier interior slabs, use 2-3/4 inches and you have to specify it on the order. Backset is a required selection on the Egg privacy set, so you pick one either way, and getting it wrong means the knob will not line up with the existing hole.
3) What comes in the box with an Emtek Egg knob privacy set, and do I need to buy a latch separately?
It ships as a complete set: both knobs, the rosettes you select, the latch, and the strike plate. Nothing else to buy for a standard bore. The latch faceplate comes round corner or square corner so it can match the mortise already cut in your door edge. If you choose the CF mechanism, the 28 degree latch is included with it.
4) Can I replace an old builder-grade bedroom knob with the Emtek Egg privacy knob without redrilling?
In most cases yes. Builder knobs like the Kwikset Polo or Schlage F Series sit in the same 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Egg privacy set uses that same prep on doors 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches thick. Confirm your backset before ordering and match the latch faceplate corner, round or square, to the mortise already in the door edge. The only case that needs new drilling is the STRETTO rosette, which adds a second 1-1/4 inch hole for the thumbturn.
5) I have a 2 inch thick solid door. Will an Emtek Egg privacy knob work, or do I need a different lockset?
It works. The Egg privacy set covers 1-3/8 through 2-1/4 inches, which is wider than most residential knobs handle. For comparison, the Dexter C2000 privacy knob and the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob both stop at 1-3/4 inches, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob reaches 2 inches. On a thick slab there is also a door thickness field on the order form, so state your actual measurement when you order.
6) What should be specified instead of a decorative brass privacy knob for a commercial bath door in a school or hospital?
The Emtek Egg privacy knobset is classified residential. For a graded commercial opening in privacy function, the Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob lock is Grade 2, non-clutching and non-keyed, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim for the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range. The Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in privacy function is Grade 3 and covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch as well.
7) What is the closest equivalent to an Emtek Egg privacy knob in another decorative brass line?
The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas Knob is also a privacy/bed/bath knob and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, so it covers thicker doors than the Emtek Egg privacy set, which is specified for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. On the Baldwin side, the Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is also a privacy function knob, and the Baldwin Estate 5000 preconfigured Baltimore knob with 5148 rose is a privacy lock supplied with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike. The Emtek Egg privacy set is brass, orders with a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, and includes latch and strike plate.
8) The door is 2 inches thick - what privacy or passage knob covers that?
The Emtek Egg privacy knobset is specified for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a 2 inch door, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob is rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and in non-locking functions the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage/closet knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset goes further, to 2-1/4 inch, and is fire rated.
9) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek knobsets and should I choose it?
CF means the rosettes have no exposed screws, so you get a clean face on both sides of the door instead of visible fasteners in the rose. It ships with the 28 degree rotation latch. If you do not care about hidden fasteners, the standard latch or the 28 degree rotation latch on their own are the other two choices. On a visible bedroom or bath door in a finished home, CF is the option people pick for appearance.
10) Can I get the Emtek Egg knob with a rosette that matches the other doors in my house?
The Egg knob takes any of Emtek's brass rosettes: #8, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Watford, and Wilshire. That is how you keep a whole floor consistent, since you can run the same rosette across passage, privacy, and keyed openings and change only the function. Finish choices are 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).
11) Does the Emtek Egg privacy knob take a key?
No key. It is a non-keyed privacy function, meaning a thumbturn inside and an emergency release outside, which is what belongs on a bedroom or bathroom door. If you need a keyed opening in the same room, order a keyed Emtek set in the same rosette and finish so the two match, or look at a keyed knob like the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office lock.
12) What is a good alternative to the Emtek Egg knob if I want an egg-shaped brass knob in a different brand?
Two close ones in the same traditional egg shape. Omnia's 434 series is a solid brass egg-shaped knob, offered as a passage latchset (434/PA) and a single dummy (434/0). Deltana's 3381 Egg Knob is an entry function for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches thick. Note the functions differ: neither of those two is a privacy set, so if you specifically need a bed and bath thumbturn, the Emtek Egg privacy or the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob is the right shelf to be looking at.
13) Is the Emtek Egg knob handed, or does one set work on both left and right doors?
No handing to specify. The Egg is a tubular knobset with a round knob on both faces, so the same set works on a left or right hand door. The only orientation decision at install is the latch faceplate corner style, round or square, which has to match the mortise cut in the door edge, and getting the backset right.
14) What knob matches a decorative brass privacy set on a closet door in the same room?
Closet and dummy doors take a non-latching or passage knob. In an egg-shaped brass design, the Omnia 434/0 is a single dummy interior lockset in solid brass and the Omnia 434/PA is the passage/hall/closet latchset in the same egg shape. The Omnia 458/0 single dummy knob latchset uses a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Omnia 442/00 #44 single dummy latchset carries a 2-5/8 inch rose. The Emtek Egg privacy set itself can be ordered with any brass rosette, including the Oval, Quincy, Watford and Wilshire rosettes, if the whole room is being matched in Emtek.
15) Which egg knob looks like the Emtek privacy set but is a keyed entry instead?
The Deltana 3381 Egg Knob is an entry function knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, so it is a keyed exterior product rather than a bed/bath set. The Emtek Egg knobset in privacy function is non-keyed with a thumbturn, so the two are not interchangeable on the same opening even though the knob shape reads the same.
16) What is a simpler knobset for a rental unit bathroom instead of a solid brass decorative set?
The Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in privacy function is a Grade 3 privacy set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim over the same thickness range. Both are single-function privacy sets. The Emtek Egg privacy knobset is a brass set built around a choice of rosette and finish, including the CF mechanism where the rosettes carry no exposed screws.
17) Can a passage knobset be used on a bathroom door instead of a privacy set?
No - passage knobs have no locking function. The Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with 5048 rose, the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial knob with 5058 rose, the Kwikset 200P Polo, the Dexter C2000 ball knob and the Pamex FTF Baron passage lockset are all passage/hall/closet products with no thumbturn. For a bath or bedroom, the Emtek Egg knobset in privacy/bed/bath function is the correct one; a privacy alternative in the same function is the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy ball knob lock.
18) Is a Schlage A170 dummy trim a substitute for a privacy knobset?
No. The Schlage A170 is single dummy trim - a Grade 2 non-keyed knob with no latch and no locking - for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. The BEST 6K Series single dummy trim and the Bravura Biloxi dummy knobset are likewise dummy products, and the Cal-Royal BA40 Barrington is a dummy knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. A bed or bath door needs the Emtek Egg knobset in privacy function, which is supplied as a complete set with latch and strike plate.
19) What is the difference between an Emtek Egg privacy knob and a Kwikset Polo knob?
The Kwikset 200P Polo is a passage door knob for interior hall and closet openings, supplied with a 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike, and the 200P-CP version ships with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. The keyed version, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob, is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek Egg knobset is a brass privacy/bed/bath set with a choice of ten finishes including Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) and Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), and a latch faceplate available with round or square corners.
20) What is the equivalent knob for a door that needs to stay locked and be opened by key from the corridor?
That is storeroom function, which the Emtek Egg privacy knobset does not perform - it is non-keyed. The Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder, and the Sargent 8XG04 is the Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset. For a keyed entrance/office opening instead, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 cylindrical knob lock with a conventional cylinder for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
21) What is the Emtek Egg knob made of, and will the finish hold up in a bathroom?
Solid brass, both the knob and the substrate. That matters in a bath, where the humidity is constant. Of the ten finishes, the Lifetime ones, Polished Brass (US3) and Polished Nickel (US14), are the plated finishes meant to hold appearance long term. Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) is the opposite choice on purpose: it has no clear coat and will patina with handling and moisture, which is the look some people want on a period house.
22) Can I order Emtek Egg knobs with a different finish on each side of the door?
Yes, split finish is an order option on the Egg privacy set. It is what you use when a room and hallway are decorated differently, say Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B) facing the hall and Polished Nickel (US14) inside the bath. Enter the split on the order along with your backset and door thickness.
23) What knob covers a bedroom door where the same design is also wanted on the entry?
To carry one knob design across a bedroom and an exterior door, the Deltana Egg Knob line offers the 3381 in entry function for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and Deltana also lists the 6171 Round Knob and the 6901 Portland Knob in entry function, the 6901 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob is offered preconfigured in both passage with the 5048 rose and privacy with the 5148 rose. The Emtek Egg knobset in privacy function handles the bedroom side and can be ordered with any brass rosette.
24) Which knobsets come as a combo pack for a whole house instead of ordering each door separately?
The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is sold as a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Emtek Egg knobset is ordered per opening by function, with the backset specified as 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch and the finish and rosette chosen for each set.
