Emtek 8200.BE.US15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek Beaded Egg privacy knob fit my existing door prep?
It drops into a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore on doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, and the latch is adjustable for either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. That covers the normal residential bored prep, so in most cases there is no new boring. One exception worth knowing before you order: the STRETTO rosette is not a standard-prep part. It needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole door preparation for the thumbturn.
2) Do I need to specify a backset when ordering an Emtek Beaded Egg knobset?
Yes, backset is a required selection: 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore hole. 2-3/8 is the common residential dimension and what the standard latch ships for; 2-3/4 is typical on thicker or commercially prepped doors. Get it wrong and the knob will not sit centered over the bore.
3) What comes in the box with an Emtek Beaded Egg privacy set, and do I need anything else?
Sold as a complete set: both knobs, the rosettes, the latch, and the strike plate. Nothing else is required for a normal bored door, though you do choose the rosette style and latch type on the order. No key or cylinder is involved, since this is a non-keyed privacy function with a thumbturn inside and an emergency release outside.
4) What is the difference between the standard latch, the 28 degree latch, and the CF mechanism on Emtek knobsets?
Three latch choices. The standard latch is the conventional bored latch. The 28 Degree Rotation Latch reduces how far the knob has to turn to retract the bolt, which is easier on the wrist. The CF Mechanism is the one to pick if you do not want screws showing on the rosette faces, and it includes the 28 degree latch as part of the assembly. If exposed fasteners on a decorative rose bother you, CF is the answer.
5) Can I match the Beaded Egg knob to the other Emtek hardware already in my house?
The Beaded Egg knob can be ordered with any brass rosette Emtek offers, and there are ten rose styles to choose from: #8, Lancaster, Oval, Quincy, Rectangular, Regular, Ribbon & Reed, Rope, Watford, and Wilshire. Finishes run French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Polished Chrome (US26), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). So you pick the rose shape that matches your existing openings and hold the finish code constant across the house.
6) Is the Emtek Beaded Egg knobset right for a commercial building or an office door?
No. The Beaded Egg brass knobset is a residential product with a tubular lock chassis, and privacy function means bed and bath doors, not offices or public spaces. For commercial openings look at a cylindrical Grade 1 or Grade 2 knob lock instead, such as the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage lock or the Sargent 8XG04 Grade 1 storeroom knob lock. Those are graded and built for traffic the Emtek is not intended for.
7) My bathroom door is 2 inches thick. Will this Emtek privacy knob work?
The published door thickness range for the Beaded Egg privacy set is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. For a 2 inch door, look at a set rated for it: the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches. There is also a Door Thickness field on the order form, so note your actual door thickness there when you place the order.
8) What is the closest equivalent to an Emtek Beaded Egg privacy knob if I need a graded commercial privacy knob instead?
The Emtek Beaded Egg privacy knobset is a residential brass tubular privacy lock in a Privacy/Bed/Bath function. For a graded commercial privacy knob in the same function, the Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob is a Grade 2 non-keyed privacy lock 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 covering the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The Emtek carries the decorative brass rosette options; the Dexter and Cal-Royal are ball-knob commercial trims in an ANSI grade.
9) What decorative privacy knob is closest to the Emtek Beaded Egg in look and function?
Two decorative privacy knobs sit in the same Privacy/Bed/Bath function as the Emtek Beaded Egg. The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob comes with the R027 rose, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob is a privacy set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Emtek Beaded Egg is a solid brass knob that can be ordered with any brass rosette from a range including the Lancaster, Quincy, Ribbon and Reed, Rope, Watford and Wilshire roses, so the rose is chosen separately rather than fixed to the knob as it is on the Baldwin 5077.
10) I need an egg-shaped brass knob but for an exterior keyed door, not a bathroom. What should I use?
The Emtek Beaded Egg knobset is non-keyed in a Privacy/Bed/Bath function, so it is not an exterior lock. For an egg-shaped knob in a keyed entry function, the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob is an entry set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. If the egg profile is not essential, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob is offered as a passage lock with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, and the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) Is the Omnia 434/0 egg knob a substitute for an Emtek Beaded Egg privacy set?
No. The Omnia 434/0 is a traditional egg-shaped knob single dummy interior lockset in solid brass, a dummy function with no latch and no locking mechanism, mounted as a fixed pull. The Emtek Beaded Egg knobset is a Privacy/Bed/Bath function sold as a complete set including latch and strike plate. The two share the egg knob shape and brass construction, but a dummy will not latch or secure a bathroom door.
12) My door is 2 inches thick. Which knob privacy or entry sets cover that thickness?
The Emtek Beaded Egg knobset fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick with a 2-1/8 inch bore. For a thicker door, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob and 6171 Round Knob entry sets cover the same 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch range. In commercial trim, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage cylindrical lock also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
13) What should I use instead of an Emtek Beaded Egg knob on a fire-rated opening?
For an opening where a fire rating is required, the Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock in a passage/closet latch function with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a fire rating, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset with an interchangeable core, a fire rating, and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. Both are passage functions rather than privacy, so a bed and bath opening on a rated wall needs the rated line's privacy trim.
14) Does a privacy knob like this take a key, and how do you get in if someone locks themselves in?
No key and no cylinder. Privacy function locks from the inside with a thumbturn and releases from the outside with an emergency tool, which is what you want on a bedroom or bathroom. If you need a keyed exterior or office door in a comparable decorative brass knob, the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob is an entry function; for a keyed residential knob the Kwikset 400P Polo is an entry lock.
15) What else is close to the Emtek Beaded Egg if I want an egg-shaped brass knob?
Omnia makes traditional egg-shaped solid brass knobs, the 434/PA as a passage latchset and the 434/0 as a single dummy, and Deltana's 3381 Egg Knob is an entry function. The Emtek is the one to pick when you need privacy function specifically and want to choose the rose style separately from the knob. The Omnia dummy is what you order for a closet or french door leaf that does not latch at all.
16) I need matching passage and privacy knobs on a hallway of bedrooms. Can I get the same look on both?
The Beaded Egg is offered in privacy function here for the bedroom and bath doors themselves. For the closet and hall doors on the same run, order the passage version of the same Emtek knob and rosette in the same finish so the doors read as one set. Keep the rose style and the US finish code identical across both functions; that is what makes a hallway look coordinated.
17) Will the strike plate that comes with the Emtek knobset fit my existing frame mortise?
The set includes its strike plate, and the latch faceplate is available in round corner or square corner. Match the faceplate corner to the mortise already cut in your door edge, round corner for a routed radius prep and square for a chiseled square prep, and you avoid patching. Same idea at the jamb with the strike.
18) What is the equivalent of the Emtek Beaded Egg privacy knob for a hall or closet door that does not need to lock?
The Emtek Beaded Egg privacy knobset locks with a thumbturn for bed and bath doors. For a latching door with no lock, the Omnia 434/PA is a traditional egg-shaped knob latchset in solid brass with a 3 inch projection in a passage function, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 knob lockset in a passage function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose is another passage option.
19) Is there a simpler privacy knob than the Emtek Beaded Egg that ships preconfigured instead of built to order?
The Emtek Beaded Egg knobset is built from separate choices of rosette, latch and finish. If a fixed configuration is preferable, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore privacy lock comes preconfigured with the 5148 rose, a 2-3/8 inch backset and a full lip strike, and the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob lockset is a Grade 3 set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek offers the 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset as a choice; the Baldwin 5000 privacy is specified at 2-3/8 inch.
20) Can I use a Schlage A170 dummy trim in place of an Emtek Beaded Egg privacy knob on a bathroom door?
No. The Schlage A170 is a Grade 2 single dummy trim, a non-keyed knob with no latch, intended for a fixed inactive leaf on doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch thick. The Emtek Beaded Egg is a Privacy/Bed/Bath tubular lock sold complete with latch and strike plate, so it latches and locks the door. A dummy trim on a bathroom door will neither hold the door closed nor provide privacy.
21) Is a Kwikset Polo knob the same thing as an Emtek Beaded Egg knobset?
They are different classes of product. The Kwikset 200P Polo is a passage knob for interior hall and closet doors supplied with a 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike, and the 400P Polo is the keyed entry version with the same latch and strike. Neither is a privacy set. The Emtek Beaded Egg is a solid brass Privacy/Bed/Bath knobset in a traditional style, with the latch faceplate available in round or square corner and the rosette selected separately.
22) Can I order an Emtek knobset with two different finishes, one on each side of the door?
Yes. There is a split finish option on the order form where you specify the finish for each side, useful when a bathroom is done in polished chrome inside and the hallway hardware is oil rubbed bronze. Put both US codes in that field. There is also a comments field for anything unusual about the opening.
23) Is the Emtek Beaded Egg knob solid brass or plated?
Brass, both the material and the substrate, from Emtek's Brass collection. That matters for the Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) option in particular, which is a living finish: it is bare brass with no lacquer, so it will patina and darken with handling. If you want it to stay bright, order Polished Brass Lifetime (US3) instead.
24) What matches an Emtek Beaded Egg privacy knob if I need the same look on a keyless combination lock?
The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick. It replaces the key or thumbturn with a code entry, where the Emtek Beaded Egg is a non-keyed privacy knob that locks from the inside with a thumbturn and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore.
