Emtek 7208.HT.FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What door thickness does the Emtek Hampton privacy knob set cover?
The published specification is 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, which covers standard commercial and older interior doors. If your door is thicker than that, put the actual measurement in the Door Thickness field when you order so the spindle and screws are made up correctly.
2) Do I have to buy a separate latch and strike for the Emtek Hampton knob?
No. It ships as a complete set with the latch and strike plate included. You choose the latch at order time: standard latch, 28 degree rotation latch, or the CF mechanism, which includes the 28 degree latch. Latch faceplate is available round corner or square corner to match your existing door mortise.
3) Is the Emtek Hampton knobset suitable for a commercial corridor or apartment turnover?
It is classified residential, glass knob on a brass base with sandcast bronze rosettes. That suits homes, high-end multifamily interiors and hospitality guest rooms. For commercial traffic where you want a graded cylindrical lock, look at the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy knob or the Cal-Royal BER20 Grade 3 privacy knob, both rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
4) Which backset do I order for the Emtek Hampton knob if I am replacing an existing knob?
Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore. 2-3/8 inch is the usual residential backset and the standard latch is built for it; 2-3/4 inch is the other common measurement and must be specified. Backset is a required selection on the order, so get the measurement before you commit.
5) The Emtek Hampton crystal knob set is non-keyed - what knob do I use on an exterior or entry door instead?
The Hampton crystal privacy set is non-keyed, so an entry opening needs a keyed knob. Keyed options include the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob, a Grade 3 entrance lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike; the Deltana 6901 Portland knob entry for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors; and the Cal-Royal BER00 Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway.
6) What is the closest decorative-brand alternative to the Emtek Hampton crystal privacy knob for a bedroom or bath door?
Two decorative privacy knobs sit in the same place on the door. The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is a privacy/bed/bath function knob, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob privacy covers a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. Both are privacy function like the Hampton crystal knob, which is non-keyed and uses a tubular lock body in brass. The difference is the knob material and look: the Hampton is a glass and porcelain collection knob, while the Bethpage and St. Thomas are metal knob designs.
7) I need a graded privacy knob for a commercial restroom instead of a decorative crystal knob - what should I use?
The Emtek Hampton crystal privacy knob is a residential product, so for a commercial restroom look at graded privacy knobs instead. The Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob is Grade 2 non-keyed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob with brass trim for the same door range, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 privacy knob lockset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. All three hold the same privacy/bed/bath function as the Hampton set.
8) Can I use the Emtek Hampton crystal knob on a fire-rated door?
The Hampton crystal privacy set is a residential tubular knobset. For an opening that calls for a fire-rated knob lock, the Falcon W101 Grade 2 cylindrical knob lock is fire rated and supplied with a 2-3/4 inch backset in a passage/closet latch function, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset is also fire rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
9) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek knobsets, and should I pick it?
CF means the rosettes have no exposed screws, so the trim reads clean from both sides. Choosing CF also brings the 28 degree rotation latch with it. If exposed rosette screws do not bother you, the standard latch or the 28 degree latch on their own are the other two choices.
10) What rosette and finish combinations can I get on the Emtek Hampton crystal knob?
Rosettes are #1, #2, #3, #4 and #6, and finishes are Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB) and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). The knob can also be ordered with any Sandcast Bronze rosette, and there is a split finish field if you want the two sides of the door finished differently.
11) Can I match the Emtek Hampton crystal knob across bedroom, bath and hall doors in the same house?
Yes, within the Glass and Porcelain collection. The Hampton knob is the privacy function of the family, and you would order the same knob and rosette in passage form for halls and closets. Keeping one rosette number and one finish, FB, MB or TWB, across the openings is what makes the doors read as a set.
12) What do I order for the hall and closet doors if I am using the Emtek Hampton crystal privacy knob on the bedrooms?
Those doors take a passage function rather than privacy, since the Hampton crystal set is a privacy/bed/bath lock. Passage knobs in the same style family include the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose and the Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped knob latchset in solid brass. For a graded option, the Dexter C2000 Series passage ball knob is Grade 2 non-keyed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Corbin Russwin CK4410 is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lock for the same door range.
13) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Emtek Hampton crystal privacy knob work, or do I need something else?
The Emtek Hampton crystal privacy set fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick with a 2-1/8 inch bore standard prep, so a 2 inch door is inside its range. If you need a graded lock at that thickness instead, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 passage/closet knob lock rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 cylindrical passage knobset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both of those are passage rather than privacy.
14) What is a simpler privacy knob alternative if I do not need the crystal knob or the rosette choices?
The Emtek Hampton crystal privacy set is built around a brass glass-and-porcelain knob with a choice of rosettes and latch types including a 28 degree rotation latch and a CF mechanism with no exposed rosette screws. If you want a plain preconfigured privacy knob instead, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with 5148 rose is a privacy lock supplied with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a full lip strike, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob with brass trim for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
15) I need to outfit a lot of interior doors quickly - is there a multi-pack alternative to ordering the Emtek Hampton crystal privacy set?
The Hampton crystal privacy knobset is configured per opening by finish, rosette, latch type and backset of 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. For volume interior work with one repeated trim, the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob ships 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 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
16) Is a storeroom or classroom knob lock an acceptable substitute for the Emtek Hampton crystal privacy set?
No, those are different functions. The Hampton crystal set is a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath lock operated from inside the room. Storeroom and classroom locks are keyed: the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder, and the Dexter C2000 classroom ball knob lock is Grade 2 and keyed. None of them give a bed or bath door privacy operation.
