Emtek 5107.HE.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Emtek Hammered Egg passage knob fit my existing 2-1/8 inch bored door?
Yes. The Hammered Egg passage knobset drops into a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore prep. The one exception is the STRETTO rosette, which needs a 1-1/4 inch diameter bore and a 2-hole door prep for thumbturn privacy.
2) What door thickness does the Emtek Hammered Egg knobset work on?
The specs list a door thickness of 1-3/8 inches to 1-3/4 inches, and the set description also notes it fits doors from 1-3/8 inches up to 2-1/4 inches thick with standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep. If your door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches, note the thickness in the Door Thickness field when ordering so the correct spindle and screws come with it.
3) Do I need to order a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset for this Emtek knob?
Backset is a required selection on the Hammered Egg passage set: 2-3/8 inches or 2-3/4 inches. The standard latch shipped is 2-3/8 inch, so specify 2-3/4 inch if that is what your door is bored for. Measure from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch bore to confirm which you have.
4) Does the Emtek Hammered Egg passage set include the latch and strike, or do I buy those separately?
It ships as a complete set with the latch and strike plate included. The latch faceplate can be round or square corner to match the existing mortise in the door edge. Knobs are non-keyed passage function, so there is no cylinder to order.
5) What is the difference between the standard latch, the 28 degree latch, and the CF mechanism on this Emtek knobset?
Three latch choices. The standard latch is the conventional Emtek tubular latch. The 28 Degree Rotation Latch reduces how far you have to turn the knob to retract the bolt, which suits smaller knobs and lighter grip. The CF mechanism gives rosettes with no exposed screws for a clean face, and it includes the 28 degree latch.
6) What should I use instead of the Emtek Hammered Egg passage knob on a bedroom or bathroom door?
A passage set has no locking mechanism at all, so it is not the right function for a bed or bath door. For privacy function in a decorative knob, the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage is a privacy knob with the R027 rose, the Baldwin 5000 Baltimore privacy set uses the 5148 rose with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. In graded hardware, the Dexter C2000 privacy knob is Grade 2 and non-keyed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) I need a passage knob for a commercial corridor door - is the Emtek Hammered Egg the right choice?
The Emtek Hammered Egg passage knobset is classified for residential use and no ANSI grade applies to it. For graded commercial passage duty, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knob lock with an Orbit knob, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 passage/closet knob lock covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset that is fire rated and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors.
8) What is a comparable egg-shaped brass passage knob to the Emtek Hammered Egg passage knobset?
The Omnia 434/PA is an egg-shaped knob latchset in passage/hall/closet function with solid brass construction and a 3 inch projection. The Emtek Hammered Egg passage set is also brass and non-keyed passage function, and it is ordered with a choice of rosette - Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square or Urban Modern - and finishes from Flat Black (US19) to Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Deltana's 3381 Egg Knob is the same egg shape but is an entry function, so it takes a key.
9) Which knobsets look like the Emtek Hammered Egg passage set but will not work as a passage knob?
Dummy trims are the main lookalike. The Omnia 434/0 is an egg-shaped single dummy lockset in solid brass, the Omnia 458/0 is a single dummy latchset with 2-3/8 inch backset, the Schlage A170 is a Grade 2 single dummy trim, and the Cal-Royal BA40 is a dummy knob lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Dummy trim is surface-applied and does not turn or retract a latch. The Emtek Hammered Egg passage set is a working tubular latch set that includes the latch and strike plate.
10) Will the Emtek Hammered Egg passage knob work on a 2 inch thick door, and what else covers that thickness?
The Emtek Hammered Egg passage set fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick with a 2-1/8 inch bore standard prep. If you want graded hardware at that thickness instead, the Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage knobset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage/closet lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Many of the lighter passage knobs stop at 1-3/4 inch, including the Arrow MK01 and RK01 Grade 2 passage knob locks and the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage knob.
11) Can I mix rosette styles and finishes across the doors in my house with the Emtek Hammered Egg knob?
The Hammered Egg knob can be paired with any brass rosette, and six are offered: Disk, Modern Rectangular, Modern, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern. Seven finishes are available, Flat Black (US19), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel Lifetime (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). A split finish (different finish each side of the door) can be requested in the optional Split Finish field.
12) What other egg-shaped brass knobs could I use instead of the Emtek Hammered Egg?
Two close alternatives in the same look: the Omnia 434/PA is a traditional egg-shaped solid brass passage latchset, and the Omnia 434/0 is the matching single dummy for closet or inactive doors. Deltana also builds an Egg Knob, the 3381, but that one is an entry function for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors rather than passage. The Emtek differs in its hammered surface and Arts and Crafts styling.
13) I need a closet door knob that does not latch at all. Is this the right one?
No. The Hammered Egg passage set has a working latch and strike, so the door will latch closed. For a non-latching closet, roller catch, or inactive leaf you want a dummy knob instead. Comparable dummies include the Omnia 434/0 egg-shaped single dummy and the Bravura Biloxi Grade 2 dummy knobset.
14) What is a simpler passage knobset alternative to the Emtek Hammered Egg for a rental turn?
The Emtek Hammered Egg passage set is a brass Arts and Crafts design ordered by rosette, latch and finish. For a straightforward non-keyed passage knob with fewer choices to make, the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 passage knob lockset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Bravura Albany and Lynchburg are Grade 2 passage knobsets with round trim, and the Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob ships with a 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike. The Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is sold as a 6-pack with adjustable backset if you are doing several doors at once.
15) I need a keyed knob to match the Emtek Hammered Egg passage sets on the rest of the doors - what are my options?
The Emtek Hammered Egg passage set is non-keyed, so a keyed opening needs a different product. In decorative brass, the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob is an entry function egg knob for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors and the Deltana 6901 Portland Knob is an entry knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. In graded hardware, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office knob lock with a conventional cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Kwikset 400P-CP is a Grade 3 keyed entry Polo knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
16) How does the Emtek Hammered Egg passage knobset compare to the Baldwin Estate passage knobs?
Both are decorative brass-era passage knobs. The Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore passage set is preconfigured with the 5048 rose, a 2-3/8 inch backset and a full lip strike, and the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob comes with the 5058 rose. The Emtek Hammered Egg passage set is configured rather than preset: you choose the rosette, the latch - Standard Latch, 28 Degree Rotation Latch, or the CF Mechanism that leaves no exposed rosette screws - and the backset, 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch.
17) Is the Emtek Hammered Egg knob solid brass or plated?
Brass is both the material and the substrate on the Hammered Egg knobset, so the hammered texture is worked into the metal itself rather than a coating over pot metal. The Unlacquered Brass (US3NL) finish is the one that will patina over time; the lacquered and plated finishes such as Satin Nickel and Polished Chrome hold their appearance.
