Emtek 8100.P.US15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a passage knobset and where is it used?
A passage knobset allows free movement through doors without locking mechanisms. Used for hallways, closets, and interior doors where privacy locking is not needed. The latch holds the door closed but can be opened from either side.
2) What door thickness works with this Emtek Providence knobset?
Standard door thickness is 1-3/8" to 1-3/4". Check manufacturer specifications for exact compatibility. Measure your door thickness before ordering to ensure proper fit and function.
3) Is this knobset handed for right or left doors?
Passage knobsets are typically reversible and work on both right-hand and left-hand doors. The latch can be adjusted during installation to accommodate door swing direction.
4) How durable is the classic brass finish?
Classic brass develops natural patina over time with use and exposure. Regular cleaning maintains appearance. For high-traffic areas, consider lacquered brass finishes that resist tarnishing.
5) What grade is this Emtek knobset rated for?
Emtek residential hardware typically meets residential-grade standards. Check product specifications for ANSI/BHMA grade ratings. Most Emtek knobsets are suitable for residential and light commercial applications.
6) Does this meet ADA accessibility requirements?
Round knobs typically do not meet ADA requirements which specify lever handles for accessibility. Check local building codes for compliance requirements in your application.
7) What components are included with the passage set?
Standard passage set includes pair of knobs, latch mechanism, strike plate, and mounting hardware. Verify contents with manufacturer specifications. Some sets may require separate purchase of additional components.
8) What tools are needed for installation?
Basic installation requires drill, hole saws (2-1/8" for knob, 1" for latch), chisel, screwdriver, and measuring tape. Use manufacturer template for accurate hole placement and alignment.
9) How do you maintain classic brass hardware?
Clean with mild soap and water, dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Apply brass cleaner periodically to maintain shine. Natural aging and patina are normal characteristics of brass.
10) Can the latch be adjusted if door doesn't close properly?
Latch backset and strike plate alignment can be adjusted. Common issues include improper door prep or frame misalignment. Verify hole sizes and positions match manufacturer template before adjusting hardware.
11) Are matching locksets available in this Providence style?
Emtek typically offers coordinating locksets, deadbolts, and entry sets in matching finishes and styles. Check our Emtek hardware collection for complete Providence line options.
12) What backset options are available for this knobset?
Standard residential backsets are 2-3/8" and 2-3/4". Verify which backset your door requires before ordering. Backset is measured from door edge to center of knob hole.
