Emtek 5107.BL.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Bristol crystal knob fit a standard pre-bored interior door?
Yes, for a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore prep. The Bristol passage knobset uses a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and ships with a latch for a 2-3/8 inch backset, with 2-3/4 inch available if that is what your doors are drilled for. One exception worth knowing: the STRETTO rosette needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole prep, so it is not a drop-in on a standard single-bore door.
2) What does passage function mean on the Emtek Bristol knob, and where should I use it?
Passage means it latches but never locks. There is no key and no thumbturn, so both knobs always retract the latch. Use it on hallways, closets, pantries, and between-room doors. For a bedroom or bathroom you need a privacy set with a thumbturn instead, and for an exterior or lockable office door you need a keyed entry set.
3) Do I need to buy a latch and strike separately with the Emtek Bristol knob set?
No. The Bristol passage set is sold complete with the latch and strike plate included. The latch faceplate can be round corner or square corner to match the mortise already cut in your door edge.
4) Does the Bristol knobset come with an adjustable backset or do I have to pick one?
You pick one at order time. The standard latch supplied is for a 2-3/8 inch backset, and 2-3/4 inch must be specified. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before ordering. If you would rather have one latch that covers both, the Kwikset 200P-CP Polo passage knob ships with a round corner adjustable latch, and the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob 6-pack has an adjustable backset.
5) What is a Grade 1 commercial alternative to the Emtek Bristol crystal passage knobset for a high-traffic corridor door?
The Emtek Bristol passage knobset is a residential brass knobset with a tubular latch, so for commercial corridor traffic look at the Schlage D10S, a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical non-keyed passage knob lock with the Orbit knob, or the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage/closet cylindrical lock with the Global knob, which covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Falcon X101 is another Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset, fire rated, with an interchangeable core and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range.
6) I need a bed or bath door instead of a hall door - what takes the place of the Emtek Bristol passage knobset?
The Emtek Bristol crystal knobset in the Bristol series is a passage function set, non-keyed, so it has no locking mechanism for a bedroom or bathroom. For privacy on those doors, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with the 5148 rose is a privacy lock with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob is a privacy set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, and the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy cylindrical ball knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) Which knobsets look similar to the Emtek Bristol passage set but are not a working substitute?
Dummy trim is the main trap. The Emtek Bristol is a passage set sold complete with latch and strike plate, so the knob turns and retracts a latch. The Schlage A170 single dummy trim, the BEST 6K single dummy trim, the Bravura Biloxi Grade 2 dummy knobset, and the Omnia 434/0 and 442/00 single dummy latchsets are surface-mounted pulls with no latch action, intended for inactive leaves. Keyed sets are the other mismatch: the Kwikset 400P Polo entry knob, the Cal-Royal BER00 Grade 3 entrance/office knob, and the Master Lock BC Series Grade 3 biscuit knob are keyed entrance functions, while the Bristol is non-keyed.
8) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch - what passage knob should I use instead of the Emtek Bristol?
The Emtek Bristol knobset is specified for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors in its specifications, with a door thickness note to supply at order. For thicker leaves, the Falcon X101 Grade 1 cylindrical passage knobset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 6171 Round knob entry set covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch if you also need a keyed function on that opening.
9) What is the CF mechanism option on the Emtek Bristol knobset?
CF is Emtek's concealed fastener build: the rosettes mount with no exposed screws on the face, which is the cleaner look on a feature door. Choosing CF also brings the 28 degree rotation latch. If you do not need hidden fasteners you can order the standard latch or the 28 degree latch on its own.
10) Which rosettes and finishes can I get the Bristol crystal knob with?
Six rosettes: Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern. Seven finishes: Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). All brass rosettes in the line can be paired with the Bristol knob, and a split finish can be specified if you want the two sides different.
11) I need to match the Bristol crystal knob on bedroom and bathroom doors, but those need to lock. What do I order?
Order the privacy version of the same Bristol knob for those openings and keep the passage set for halls and closets. The knob, rosette, and finish stay consistent across the doors that way. Note that if you choose the STRETTO rosette, the privacy thumbturn version requires a 1-1/4 inch bore and a 2-hole door prep, which is extra drilling on a standard door.
12) What is the closest decorative-brand equivalent to the Emtek Bristol passage knobset if I want a different knob shape?
The Emtek Bristol crystal passage knobset is a solid brass, non-keyed passage set. Comparable decorative passage knobsets include the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with the 5058 rose, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore 2 inch knob with 5048 rose passage lock at a 2-3/8 inch backset with full lip strike, and the Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped knob latchset in solid brass with a 3 inch projection. Those give you a metal or turned knob profile rather than the glass crystal look of the Bristol.
13) Is there a lower-cost builder-grade passage knob that installs in the same door prep as the Emtek Bristol?
The Emtek Bristol passage knobset uses a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with either a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. Builder-grade passage knobs that work in standard bored prep include the Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob with 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike, the Pamex FTF Baron Grade 3 passage knob lockset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Bravura Albany or Lynchburg Grade 2 passage knobsets with round trim. These are plainer trim than the crystal Bristol knob and do not offer the Emtek rosette choices.
14) I need to outfit several interior doors at once - is there a multi-pack alternative to ordering Emtek Bristol passage knobsets individually?
Emtek Bristol passage knobsets are configured one opening at a time by finish, rosette and latch, with seven finishes from Flat Black to Unlacquered Brass. If you want quantity in one line instead, 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.
15) What is the 28 degree rotation latch on the Emtek knobsets for?
It is a latch that retracts on a shorter knob turn than a conventional tubular latch, which suits the smaller-diameter decorative knobs where you have less leverage in the hand. It is included automatically with the CF mechanism and can also be ordered on its own without CF.
