Emtek 5207.OCT.US19 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Emtek Octagon privacy knobset fit a 2-3/8 inch or a 2-3/4 inch backset?
Both. Backset is a required selection on the Emtek Octagon privacy knob, offered in 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch. The standard latch ships for 2-3/8 inch, so if your door is bored at 2-3/4 inch you have to specify it when ordering. Measure from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch bore to confirm which one you have.
2) Will the Emtek Octagon knob go into an existing standard door prep?
Yes, for a normal tubular prep. The Octagon privacy knobset is a tubular lock built around a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, which is the standard residential door bore, so it drops into an existing prepped door as long as the backset matches. No new boring is needed on a typical replacement.
3) Is this Emtek knob rated for a commercial building or an apartment corridor?
No. The Octagon knobset is a residential solid brass product with no ANSI grade behind it. For commercial traffic in a privacy application, look at the graded cylindrical locks instead, such as the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy knob or the Cal-Royal BER20 Grade 3 privacy knob. Emtek is the right call for high-end residential and boutique hospitality interiors, not a school or hospital corridor.
4) What is another privacy knob with a decorative rose if the Emtek Octagon knob is not the right look?
The Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose is a privacy/bed/bath knob with a decorative rose, as is the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with 5148 rose, which is preconfigured with a 2-3/8 inch backset and a full lip strike. The Emtek Octagon privacy set is a brass, contemporary-style knobset whose octagonal knob can be paired with Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square or Urban Modern rosettes and ordered in 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. Choose by knob shape and rose style: the Baldwins are fixed configurations, the Emtek is built up from knob, rosette, latch and finish.
5) I need a Grade 2 privacy knob for a commercial bathroom door instead of a designer brass knob. What should I order?
The Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob lock is Grade 2, non-keyed, non-clutching, and fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. The Emtek Octagon privacy knobset is a residential brass knobset with no ANSI grade behind it, so for a graded commercial restroom opening the Dexter C2000 privacy is the better-matched choice. Both are privacy/bed/bath function, so the door prep and user experience are the same.
6) Can I use the Emtek Octagon privacy knob on an exterior entry door?
No. The Emtek Octagon set is non-keyed privacy/bed/bath function, intended for bedroom and bathroom doors. For a keyed exterior opening, the Deltana 6171 Round Knob entry and Deltana 3381 Egg Knob entry are entry function for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches thick, and the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. What knob locks cover that?
The Emtek Octagon knobset covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors with standard 2-1/8 inch bore prep. If you want alternatives at that thickness, the Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage knobset covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches while keeping the privacy function.
8) What finishes does the Emtek Octagon privacy knob come in, and can I mix two finishes?
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). There is also an optional split finish field on the order, so you can call out one finish for the hall side and another for the room side. Unlacquered brass will patina over time; the lifetime polished nickel will not.
9) Can I get the Emtek Octagon knob with no visible screws on the rose?
Yes. Choose the CF Mechanism option and the rosettes mount with no exposed screws. That option also includes the 28 degree rotation latch. The other two latch choices are the standard latch and the 28 degree rotation latch on its own.
10) Which rosettes can the Emtek Octagon knob be ordered with?
Six rose styles pair with the Octagon knob: Disk, Modern, Modern Rectangular, Neos, Square, and Urban Modern. That lets you match a rectangular or square rose to square-edge modern trim, or a round Disk rose to softer casing, while keeping the same knob on every door.
11) Is the Emtek Octagon knobset a complete set, or do I need to buy a latch and strike separately?
It ships complete. The Octagon privacy set includes the knobs, the rosettes you select, the latch, and the strike plate. Latch faceplates are available with round or square corners, so match whatever your existing door edge mortise is cut for.
12) What other decorative brass privacy knobs compare to the Emtek Octagon?
Two close alternatives in the same decorative solid brass class: the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob, which is listed for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Both are traditional shapes. The Octagon is the contemporary option here, with a faceted knob and modern rose styles, so pick it when the rest of the trim is square-edge modern rather than colonial.
13) Is there a simpler privacy knob than the Emtek Octagon for rental turns?
Two straightforward privacy knobs: the Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset is Grade 3 privacy function for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim over the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range. Both carry the same privacy/bed/bath function as the Emtek Octagon set, which is a brass residential knobset configured by knob, rosette, latch type and one of seven finishes including Flat Black (US19) and Satin Nickel (US15).
14) What is the equivalent of the Emtek Octagon privacy knob for a hall or closet door that does not need to lock?
Non-locking knobs in the same decorative brass vein include the Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped knob latchset in solid brass with a 3 inch projection, and the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose. Both are passage/hall/closet function, meaning no thumbturn and no locking, unlike the Emtek Octagon set, which is privacy/bed/bath with a thumbturn. For a plain builder-grade passage knob, the Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob ships with a 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike.
15) I need the same brass look on a door that only needs a pull. Is there a dummy version?
For a non-operating door, the Omnia 442/00 is a traditional single dummy knob latchset in solid brass with a 2-5/8 inch rose, and the Omnia 434/0 is a solid brass egg-shaped single dummy. The Emtek Octagon privacy set is a full working privacy set that includes latch and strike plate and requires a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, so it is not the part for a fixed inactive leaf.
16) Does a Grade 1 or Grade 2 commercial knob lock fit the same door prep as the Emtek Octagon privacy set?
The Emtek Octagon set uses a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the common cylindrical prep. Commercial cylindrical knob locks that work from that same family of prep include the Schlage D10S Grade 1 passage with Orbit knob and the Corbin Russwin CK4410 Grade 2 passage for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. Note those two are passage function, not privacy, so switching to them removes the thumbturn.
17) Is the Sargent 28C-KNOB or the Imperial ED-BKL580 a substitute for the Emtek Octagon privacy knobset?
No. The Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with knob and rose for 1-3/4 inch doors in the 28 Series, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim for the ED-500 Series in storeroom function. Both mount to an exit device rather than working as a standalone bored lock. The Emtek Octagon set is a complete tubular privacy knobset sold with its own latch and strike plate.
18) I need to buy privacy knobs in bulk for an apartment building. Is the Emtek Octagon the right call?
The Emtek Octagon privacy set is a made-to-order brass configuration across knob, rosette, latch and seven finishes, which suits a design-led unit turn. For volume standardization the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is sold as a 6-pack with adjustable backset, and the Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob combo pack ships with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
19) What is the closest satin brass alternative to the Emtek Octagon knob in a contemporary rectangular trim?
The Bravura Dallas with rectangle trim passage knobset is offered in US4 Satin Brass and is Grade 2. The Emtek Octagon set also offers Satin Brass (US4) and can be ordered with the Modern Rectangular Rosette. The functional difference is the deciding one: the Bravura Dallas is passage function, while the Emtek Octagon set is privacy/bed/bath with a thumbturn.
20) I need passage knobs for closets and hall doors to match these bathroom knobs. Can I stay in the same look?
Yes on the Emtek side, since the Octagon knob is built in privacy and other functions across the same rose styles, so a closet door can carry the identical knob and rose with no lock. If you are matching an existing builder-grade opening instead, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore set is offered in both passage and privacy versions with a 2-3/8 inch backset, which keeps one family across a whole floor.
