Emtek 72011.PT.MB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will an Emtek Petal privacy knob fit a 1-3/4 inch door with standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep?
Yes. The Petal privacy knobset drops into standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and works on doors from 1-3/8 inch up to 2-1/4 inch thick. One exception on the prep: if you pick the STRETTO rosette, the thumbturn privacy needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore hole and a 2-hole door preparation instead of the standard single cross bore.
2) Does the Emtek Petal privacy knob come with a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset latch?
Standard shipment is the 2-3/8 inch backset latch. Backset is a required selection when you order, so if your existing bore is 2-3/4 inches back from the door edge, specify 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch bore before you order, since the wrong latch will not reach the strike.
3) What is included with an Emtek Petal privacy knobset, and do I need to buy a latch separately?
It ships as a complete set: both knobs, the rosettes, the latch, and the strike plate. Nothing else is needed for a standard bed or bath door. Privacy function means it locks from the inside with a thumbturn and has no key cylinder, so there is no keying to specify.
4) Is the Emtek Petal knobset rated for a commercial office or apartment corridor?
No. The Petal lost wax cast bronze knobset is a residential tubular lockset, meant for interior bed and bath doors in homes. For a commercial opening that needs a graded cylindrical lock, look at the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 cylindrical knob lock or the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty knobset, both of which carry a Grade 1 rating.
5) The door is a hall or closet that should never lock. What knob matches instead of a privacy set?
Order a passage knob, not a privacy one. The Emtek Petal set is privacy/bed/bath, so it has an interior locking turn. For a hall or closet door, the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose keeps a decorative rose-mounted knob look, and the Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped knob latchset is a solid brass passage set with a 3 inch projection. On the production side, the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob is Grade 2 over the same range.
6) What is a cross-brand equivalent to the Emtek Petal privacy knob for a bed or bath door?
The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob privacy set is the closest like-for-like: same privacy/bed/bath function, same solid decorative knob format, and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range that covers the 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors the Petal privacy set is specified for. The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is another decorative privacy knob in the same vein if you want a rose-and-knob look. Both are privacy function, so the interior turn locks and there is no key on either side, which matches the Petal set's non-keyed configuration.
7) What is a simpler privacy knob to use on secondary bedroom and bath doors instead of a cast bronze decorative set?
The Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in privacy function is a Grade 3 privacy knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob with brass trim over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thickness range. Both hit the same bed and bath function as the Emtek Petal privacy set on the same door thicknesses, in a plain production knob rather than a lost wax cast bronze one. For a property manager standardizing back-of-house doors while keeping the cast bronze on the front rooms, either covers the opening.
8) Which knob lock has an ANSI grade for a facility spec that calls one out on bed and bath doors?
The Emtek Petal privacy knob is a residential lost wax cast bronze set. If the drawing calls for a graded privacy knob, the Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob is Grade 3 over the same range. Both are non-keyed privacy function, so the door behaves the same way for the occupant. Institutional buyers writing a grade into the submittal should specify one of those rather than the decorative bronze set.
9) What should I order instead if the door needs to lock with a key rather than a thumbturn?
The Emtek Petal privacy set is non-keyed, so it will not take a key cylinder. For a keyed opening in a residential setting, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is a Grade 3 entrance knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. For a commercial keyed opening, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office cylindrical knob lock with a conventional cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 single cylinder storeroom knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
10) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek knobsets, and should I choose it?
CF is the concealed fastener build: the rosettes mount with no exposed screws, so you see a clean rose with no visible fixings. Choosing CF also brings the 28 degree latch with it. If you do not care about visible screws, the standard latch version is the plain choice. There is also a 28 degree rotation latch (Latch28) offered on its own with the standard exposed-screw rosettes.
11) What finishes and rosettes can I get the Emtek Petal privacy knob in?
Two finishes, Flat Black Bronze (FB) and Medium Bronze (MB), and four rosette styles: #11, #12, #14 and #15. Every finish and rosette pairing is buildable with any of the three latch choices. The knob itself is lost wax cast bronze from the Tuscany Bronze collection, so it can be ordered with any Lost Wax Bronze rosette to match other openings in the same house.
12) What else can I use if I need a privacy knob but not a decorative cast bronze one?
For a plain, graded privacy knob the Dexter C2000 Series Grade 2 privacy cylindrical ball knob fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, and the Pamex FTF Baron and Cal-Royal BER20 are Grade 3 privacy knobs over the same thickness range. If you want another decorative bronze or brass privacy knob, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors and the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is another dressed option.
13) Does the Emtek Petal privacy set come with a square corner or round corner latch faceplate?
Both faceplate corner styles are offered, round corner and square corner. Match it to the mortise already cut in the door edge: an existing round corner pocket takes the round faceplate without any chisel work, and a square corner pocket takes the square. This matters on a retrofit where you are reusing the old latch mortise.
14) Is a dummy knob the same thing as a privacy knob set?
No. The Emtek Petal privacy set is a tubular lock sold complete with latch and strike plate, and it needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore in the door. A dummy knob has no latch and no bore prep at all: the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, the Schlage A170 single dummy trim, and the Omnia 458/0 single dummy knob latchset are all surface-mounted trim for an inactive leaf or a closet door held by a ball catch. Order a dummy only when the door does not latch; it will not lock a bathroom.
15) What privacy knob works on a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches?
The Emtek Petal privacy set is specified for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker leaf, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If the opening is commercial and needs a wider range still, the Falcon X101 heavy duty Grade 1 cylindrical knobset spans 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, though that one is a passage/closet function rather than privacy.
16) What is a fire rated knob lock alternative for a rated opening?
The Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock that carries a fire rating, with a passage/closet latch function and a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Falcon X101 is the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent, also fire rated, for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core. Both are passage function rather than the privacy/bed/bath function of the Emtek Petal set, so specify accordingly if the rated door also needs to lock from inside.
17) I need one order to cover an entry and the bath on the same unit. What pairs with a decorative privacy knob?
For matching function on the same unit, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob is offered in a preconfigured privacy set with a 5148 rose and in a passage set with a 5048 rose, both with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a full lip strike, so the bath and the hall door carry the same knob. The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is sold as a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Emtek Petal privacy set covers only the bed and bath door itself, on a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch adjustable backset.
18) Which knob lock should go on a heavy traffic commercial door rather than a cast bronze residential set?
The Emtek Petal knob set is a residential product. For high traffic, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical knob lock in passage function, the BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance function single cylinder knob lock, and the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset. Match the function to the door: passage for a corridor, entrance for an office, storeroom for a door that stays locked outside.
19) What is a 28 degree latch and why would I want one on a bedroom door?
A 28 degree latch retracts with less knob rotation than a standard latch, so the knob turns a shorter arc to pull the bolt. On the Petal privacy set it comes either bundled with the CF concealed-fastener mechanism or ordered on its own as Latch28 with the standard rosette. Both are available in Flat Black Bronze and Medium Bronze across all four rosette numbers.
20) Can I get a matching keyed entry knob in the Emtek Petal design for the front door?
The Petal privacy set is non-keyed by construction, so it takes no cylinder and cannot be keyed. It is the bed and bath piece of the design. For a keyed opening you would order a separate keyed Emtek product in the same Lost Wax Bronze family and match the rosette number and finish, since the Petal knob accepts any Lost Wax Bronze rosette.
21) Is the Emtek Petal knob solid bronze or plated?
The knob is lost wax cast bronze, part of the Tuscany Bronze collection, with brass listed as the lockset material. Lost wax casting gives each knob its own surface character, and both Flat Black Bronze and Medium Bronze are living finishes that will change tone with handling over time.
22) Can knob trim for an exit device be used in place of a bored privacy knob?
No. The Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with a knob and rose for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only with B design. Both are trim for a panic device, not a standalone lock, and neither latches a door on its own. The Emtek Petal privacy set is a tubular bored lockset sold complete with latch and strike for a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, which is the prep a standard interior door already has.
