Emtek Crystal Knobsets - Windsor Knob, Dummy (Pair)

No door prep is needed. The Windsor crystal dummy knobset is surface mounted, so it screws to the face of the door rather than dropping into a 2-1/8 inch cross bore. That makes it the usual choice for closet doors, French door inactive leaves, and any slab where you do not want to drill a lockset bore.

It ships as a pair, one knob for each face of the door, as a complete set. If you only need one side, for example a single closet door, a single dummy trim like the Schlage A170 or the BEST 6K single dummy is the right call instead.

No. The Windsor knobset is dummy function, non-keyed, with no latch and no lock. The knobs are fixed pulls that do not turn a spindle. For a door that has to stay shut you want a passage latch, and for a bath or bedroom a privacy set.

The Emtek Windsor crystal knob is a dummy function, non-keyed brass set intended for residential use. If the opening calls for a commercial-graded dummy trim instead, the Schlage A170 single dummy is a Grade 2 heavy duty dummy knob in the A Series covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the BEST 6K Series 6K-1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim. Both are single dummy trims, so a double-door application needs two, where the Windsor is sold as a pair.

A dummy knob has no latch and is surface mounted with no door prep, so it will not hold a door closed. For a hall or closet door that needs a latch, options include the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose, the Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped passage latchset, the Pamex FTF PMX-FTF30 Grade 3 passage knob for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin CK4410 Grade 2 passage/closet knob for the same thickness range. For bed and bath, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.

Four sandcast bronze rosette styles, #1, #2, #3, #4 and #6, each in three finishes: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB), and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB). If you want the knob and rosette in different finishes, there is an optional split finish note field on the order.

It is a residential product, glass and porcelain collection, with a brass body. For an office, school, or multi-family corridor you want a graded cylindrical lock instead, such as the Grade 1 Schlage D Series passage or the Grade 2 Corbin Russwin CK4410.

Both are dummy function knobs. The Cal-Royal BA40 is a cylindrical dummy knob in the Barrington BA series rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the Emtek Windsor dummy covers. The differences are appearance and configuration: the Windsor is a brass set with a glass knob from the Glass and Porcelain collection, sold as a complete pair and orderable with any Sandcast Bronze rosette in #1 through #4 or #6 and in Flat Black Bronze, Medium Bronze, or Tumbled White Bronze.

Trim-only knobs are often mistaken for dummy sets. The Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only with B design for the 7800 Series, the Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with knob and rose in entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in storeroom function for the ED-500 Series. Those are trim for exit devices, not standalone inactive knobs. The Emtek Windsor crystal dummy is a non-keyed dummy pair that surface mounts with no door prep required.

The Emtek Windsor crystal dummy pair is rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For thicker stock, the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob entry, 6171 Round Knob entry, and 6112 St. Thomas privacy all cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage knobset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Note these are latching functions rather than inactive dummy trim.

Among knob locks in the same family, the Falcon W101 Grade 2 cylindrical knob lock with 2-3/4 inch backset and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 cylindrical passage knobset both carry a fire rating. Both are latching passage/closet functions, not dummy trim. The Emtek Windsor crystal knob is a residential dummy set, surface mounted with no door prep, and a dummy knob does not latch a door.

The Windsor knob is part of Emtek's Glass and Porcelain collection in an American Classic styling, and can be ordered on any of the sandcast bronze rosettes, so the trim reads consistently from door to door. Keep the same rosette number and finish across the openings and the dummy pairs on closets will match the working doors elsewhere.

Yes. For a plainer non-keyed knob, the Arrow MK01 and RK01 are Grade 2 passage knob locks for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the RK01 with a ball knob, and the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob is Grade 2 over the same thickness range. Sure-Loc's Bergen round knob is offered as a 6-pack with adjustable backset for multi-door work. These are latching passage knobs; the Emtek Windsor is an inactive dummy pair with a glass knob.
