Emtek 5207.BN.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Emtek Bern privacy knob fit a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door?
Yes. The Bern privacy knobset drops into standard door prep with a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, and it covers doors from 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches thick. One exception on the prep: if you pick the STRETTO rosette, the door needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole prep for the thumbturn side, so that one is not a plain drop-in.
2) Do I need to specify a backset when ordering the Emtek Bern knobset?
Backset is a required choice, 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. The standard latch ships 2-3/8, which is the usual residential interior backset; if your existing bore is set back further from the edge, call out 2-3/4. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before you order.
3) What is included with the Emtek Bern privacy set, and do I need to buy a latch separately?
It ships as a complete set: both knobs, the latch, and the strike plate. Nothing else to order to hang it. The latch faceplate comes round or square corner, so you can match the mortise already cut in the door edge.
4) Is the Emtek Bern knob keyed, and what does the privacy function actually do?
Non-keyed. The Bern privacy set is a bed and bath function: it locks from inside with a thumbturn, with no cylinder and no key on the outside. If you need a keyed exterior or office door, this is the wrong function.
5) Is the Emtek Bern knobset rated for a commercial building or apartment corridor?
It is a residential product, solid brass, tubular lock type. For a commercial opening or anything on a traffic path in a multi-family building, go to a graded cylindrical lock instead. The Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob over the same thickness range. Bern is the choice when appearance drives the decision on interior bed and bath doors.
6) Will the Emtek Bern privacy knob work on a thick 2 inch solid core bedroom door?
Yes, up to 2-1/4 inches. That range is wider than most residential privacy knobs carry, so it handles the heavier solid core and older doors that a 1-3/4 inch limited set will not. There is a door thickness field on the order so you can state your actual measurement.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Emtek Bern privacy knob from another decorative brand?
The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob is also a privacy/bed/bath function knob and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, so it covers the same bed and bath openings as the Bern privacy set, which fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is another decorative privacy knob. The Bern is a brass knob in a contemporary style, while the Bethpage and St. Thomas are traditional designs, so the difference is largely the look of the knob and rose rather than the function behind the door.
8) I need a bed and bath knob for a rental unit hallway - is there a simpler option than the Emtek Bern?
The Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 knob lockset in privacy function over the same door thickness range. Both are single-configuration privacy knobs. The Emtek Bern privacy set is a residential brass knob ordered by choosing finish, rosette style and latch type, which is the route to take when the knob has to match a decorative program across the unit.
9) Can I use the Emtek Bern privacy knob on a commercial office or school door?
The Bern privacy knob is a residential tubular lockset in privacy/bed/bath function. For a commercial opening that needs an ANSI grade, the Dexter C2000 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical ball knob lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and for heavier traffic the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knob lock in the D Series. Those carry the grade rating a commercial spec calls out; the Bern is built for interior residential bed and bath doors.
10) What should I order instead of the Emtek Bern privacy knob for a door that needs a key?
The Bern privacy set is non-keyed - it is a bed and bath function with a thumbturn, not an entry lock. For a keyed opening, the Kwikset 400P Polo is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway over the same range, and the Deltana 6901 Portland is a decorative entry knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) What looks like a substitute for the Emtek Bern privacy knob but will not lock the bathroom door?
Passage and dummy knobs sit next to privacy knobs in a catalog and do not latch privately. The Arrow MK01 and RK01 are Grade 2 passage knob locks, the Pamex FTF Baron in passage function is Grade 3, and the Bravura Albany and Lynchburg are Grade 2 passage knobsets - all of those turn freely with no thumbturn. The Cal-Royal BA40 Barrington and the Schlage A170 single dummy trim are dummy knobs with no latch at all. Only a privacy function such as the Emtek Bern privacy set gives the bed and bath thumbturn.
12) What privacy knob works on a door thicker than 1-3/4 inch?
The Emtek Bern privacy set is specified for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Where the door runs thicker, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob is rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Among non-privacy functions on thick doors, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage lock 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.
13) What is the difference between the CF Mechanism and the standard latch on the Emtek Bern knob?
Three latch choices. The CF Mechanism hides the rosette fasteners so there are no exposed screws on the face, and it comes with the 28 degree rotation latch. You can also take the 28 degree latch on its own, or the standard latch. The 28 degree latch turns a shorter arc, which is what you want if the knob rotation feels long on the other doors in the house. Pick CF when the look of the rose matters.
14) Which rosettes and finishes can I get on the Emtek Bern knob to match the rest of the house?
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). The knob will take any brass rosette, so you can hold the same knob across a floor and change the rose to suit each room. There is also a split finish option if you want a different finish inside and out.
15) Can I use the Emtek Bern knob on a hall or closet door instead of a bathroom?
Not this one. The Bern privacy set has a thumbturn lock, which you do not want on a closet. Emtek builds the Bern in a passage function for hall and closet doors, and that is what to order. Non-locking peers we carry include the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage ball knob and the Arrow MK01 Grade 2 passage knob, both for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
16) I want the same knob on the closet and hall doors as on the bathroom - what pairs with the Emtek Bern privacy set?
Matching a bathroom privacy knob to the passage doors around it is a common fleet requirement. Within the same design family, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob is offered both as a privacy lock with 5148 rose and as a passage lock with 5048 rose, both with 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, and the Pamex FTF Baron comes in privacy, passage and entrance/office functions on the same Grade 3 platform. The Emtek Bern privacy set is a brass knob ordered with a chosen rosette, so a matched set across doors comes from keeping the same rosette and finish on each opening.
17) Does the Emtek Bern privacy knob work on a fire rated door assembly?
For an opening where the door assembly carries a fire rating, the Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock in passage/closet function with a fire rating, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset with a fire rating covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Emtek Bern privacy set is a residential brass knob for interior bed and bath doors.
18) What is the difference between the Emtek Bern privacy knob and a keyless combination knob for a bathroom or utility door?
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, so entry is by code and no key or thumbturn is involved. The Emtek Bern privacy set is a non-keyed brass privacy knob operated by a thumbturn from inside, with an emergency release outside - the usual arrangement for a bed or bath door rather than a controlled utility room.
