Emtek 5207.MSC.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Modern Square Crystal privacy knob fit a standard pre-drilled interior door?
It drops into standard residential door prep: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/8 inch backset latch supplied as standard. If your door is bored at 2-3/4 inch backset, that backset has to be picked when you order, since backset is a required selection. One exception to watch: if you choose the STRETTO rosette, the door needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole prep for the thumbturn privacy, which is not the same as standard prep.
2) What exactly comes in the box with this Emtek privacy knobset?
It ships as a complete set: both knobs, the rosettes you selected, the latch, and the strike plate. Nothing else needs to be sourced to hang it on a prepped door. The latch faceplate is available in round corner or square corner, so it can be matched to the existing mortise in the door edge.
3) Is this Emtek square knob keyed, or just a bed and bath lock?
Non-keyed. It's a privacy function knob for bedrooms and bathrooms, meaning it locks from the inside with a thumbturn and has no key cylinder. If you need a key on the outside for an entry or office door, this is the wrong function.
4) What is the closest decorative privacy knob to the Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set if I want a different brand?
The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is a decorative solid-brass-style privacy knob in the same bed/bath function. The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob is another privacy/bed-bath knob and covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Emtek Modern Square privacy knob differs in that the knob is a square crystal shape and the rosette is chosen separately from Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern.
5) I need a privacy bath knob for a commercial corridor, not a residential one. What should I use instead of the Emtek Modern Square?
The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set is a residential knobset. For a graded commercial privacy knob, the Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob is Grade 2 and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Cal-Royal BER20 privacy knob is Grade 3 with brass trim over the same door thickness range, and the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) My door is 2 inches thick. Which privacy knob works if the Emtek Modern Square does not?
The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors in its specification table. For a 2 inch door in privacy function, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob is rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If the opening is passage rather than privacy, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage knob also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage knobset goes to 2-1/4 inch.
7) What is the CF mechanism option on Emtek knobsets and should I pick it?
CF stands for the concealed fastener mechanism: the rosettes mount with no exposed screws, so you get a clean face on the trim. Choosing CF also brings the 28 degree rotation latch with it. The other two choices are the standard latch or the 28 degree latch on its own with conventional rosette screws. If the look of the rose matters to the client, CF is the one to specify.
8) Can I mix this crystal square knob with a different rose shape to match my other doors?
Yes. The knob can be ordered on any of six Emtek brass rosettes: Disk, Modern Rectangular, Modern, Neos, Square, or Urban Modern. That lets you carry one rose shape through a whole floor while changing knob or lever styles room to room. There is also a split finish option at order time if you want a different finish inside versus outside.
9) Is this Emtek knobset suitable for a commercial building or apartment turnover work?
It's classified residential, with a tubular brass lock body and a glass and porcelain collection knob. For a commercial corridor, a school, or high-traffic multi-family, a graded cylindrical lock is the better call: the Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob is a Grade 2 privacy option, and Cal-Royal's BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob with brass trim. Use the Emtek where the finish and crystal knob are the point, such as a custom home or a hospitality suite.
10) Do I need to tell you my door thickness when ordering this Emtek privacy set?
There's a door thickness field on the order, and it's worth filling in, especially on anything thicker than a standard interior slab. Backset is the required pick: 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore hole to confirm which one your door is prepped for before you commit.
11) I ordered the Emtek Modern Square privacy set but the door is a closet that does not need to lock. What is the equivalent?
Privacy function adds a thumbturn and emergency release that a closet does not need. For a non-locking latching knob, the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose and the Bravura Albany with round trim passage knobset, a Grade 2 unit, both serve hall and closet. The Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped knob latchset is another solid brass passage option. If the closet door does not latch at all, the Omnia 458/0 single dummy knob latchset is dummy trim only.
12) The bedroom door needs a key, not a thumbturn. What replaces the Emtek Modern Square privacy set?
The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set is non-keyed. For a keyed knob on the same style of interior opening, the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office Grade 3 knob uses a Kwikset keyway and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is Grade 3 over the same range with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike, and the Pamex FTF Baron entrance/office knob is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) Is the Schlage A170 or Sargent 78-2875 a substitute for the Emtek Modern Square privacy knob?
No. The Schlage A170 is single dummy trim, a Grade 2 non-keyed knob with no latch, and the Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only with B design for a 7800 Series device. Neither latches or locks on its own. The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set is a complete tubular privacy set sold with latch and strike plate.
14) I need one knob model I can standardize across a whole building including classroom and storeroom doors. Does the Emtek Modern Square fit that?
The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set is a residential privacy knobset and does not come in storeroom or classroom function. For a family that spans those functions, the Sargent 8X Line 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 storeroom/closet knob, and the Dexter C2000 Series covers Grade 2 classroom, entry/office, passage, and privacy knobs on 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
15) I want the crystal look but at a simpler, plainer price point in privacy function. What else is available?
The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set is a glass-style knob from the Glass and Porcelain collection in brass. Plainer metal privacy knobs in the same function include the Cal-Royal BER20 Grade 3 privacy knob with brass trim and the Pamex FTF Baron Grade 3 privacy knob, both for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with 5148 rose privacy lock, which comes preconfigured with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike.
16) I am buying privacy knobs in volume for apartment bedrooms. How does the Emtek Modern Square compare to a multi-pack option?
The Sure-Loc Bergen round knob ships as a 6-pack with adjustable backset. The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set is ordered one set at a time with the backset selected as 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch, the rosette chosen from six styles, and the finish from Flat Black US19, Oil Rubbed Bronze US10B, Polished Chrome US26, Polished Nickel Lifetime US14, Satin Brass US4, Satin Nickel US15, or Unlacquered Brass US3NL, so a fleet order stays matched across doors.
17) What is the difference between the Emtek Modern Square privacy knob and a Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth combo pack?
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, combining more than one function in a single carton. The Emtek Modern Square Knob privacy set is a single privacy set that includes latch and strike plate, with the rosette and latch specified separately, including a CF mechanism option that leaves no exposed screws on the rosettes.
