Emtek Sandcast Bronze Knobsets - Butte Knob, Dummy (Pair)

No door prep is needed. The Butte sandcast bronze dummy knob is surface mounted, so it screws onto the face of the door with no 2-1/8 inch bore and no latch mortise. That makes it the usual choice for a false-active door leaf, a closet door with a magnetic or roller catch, or a pantry door where the knob is only a pull.

No. Dummy function means the knob is fixed trim only - it doesn't turn a latch and it doesn't lock, so the door needs a catch or a stop to stay shut. If you need the door to latch, order a passage set; if it's a bath or bedroom that needs to lock, order a privacy set in the same Sandcast Bronze collection.

It's sold as a pair, one knob for each face of the door, supplied as a complete set. If you only need a single knob on one side of a door, a single dummy trim is the right item instead - the Omnia 434/0 and the Schlage A170 are both single dummy knobs.

The Butte sandcast bronze knob in dummy function is surface mount with no door prep and does not operate a latch, so it will not hold a door closed. For a latching knob, the Omnia 434/PA is the same traditional egg-shaped knob in a passage latchset with a 3 inch projection, and the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose is another passage-function option. Both engage a latch, so the door will need bore and edge prep the dummy does not require.

No. The Butte sandcast bronze knob is non-keyed dummy function, so it has no privacy button and no latch. For a bedroom or bath, look at a privacy-function knob such as the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage privacy knob with R027 rose, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob rated for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, or the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy cylindrical ball knob for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. A common approach is privacy knobs on the bedroom doors and Butte dummies on the closet or double doors so the bronze look carries through.

Yes. The Butte knob is part of Emtek's Sandcast Bronze collection and can be ordered with any Sandcast Bronze rosette, so it lines up with the other openings in a Rustic Living scheme. Finishes are Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB), and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB).

Five rosette choices: #1, #2, #3, #4, and #6. Each one is available in all three bronze finishes. Pick the rosette to match whatever shape you've already got on the passage and privacy sets in the same rooms.

Yes, there's an optional split finish entry on the order. Use it when the two rooms the door separates are finished differently and you want, say, Flat Black Bronze on one face and Medium Bronze on the other. Write the finish for each side into that field.

Both are dummy function knob trim that does not operate a latch. The BEST 6K-1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim in the 6K Series, built as commercial cylindrical trim. The Emtek Butte is a residential sandcast bronze knob sold as a pair and can be ordered with any Sandcast Bronze rosette, in Flat Black Bronze, Medium Bronze, or Tumbled White Bronze. Choose on the setting: the BEST for a graded commercial submittal, the Butte for a rustic bronze interior where the finish and rosette selection matter.

Yes. The Bravura Biloxi with round trim is a Grade 2 dummy knobset, the Cal-Royal BA40 is a dummy knob in the Barrington BA series for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Omnia 458/0 is a traditional single dummy knob latchset. What you give up versus the Emtek Butte is the sandcast bronze material and the choice of #1 through #6 Sandcast Bronze rosettes in Flat Black Bronze, Medium Bronze, or Tumbled White Bronze.

The Butte sandcast bronze dummy knob pair fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Cal-Royal BA40 dummy knob cylindrical lock in the Barrington BA series lists the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range and is also dummy function. If the door runs thicker than 1-3/4 inch, the Schlage A170 single dummy trim is listed to 1-7/8 inch.

Two traps. Exit device trim such as the Sargent 28C-KNOB knob and rose trim for 1-3/4 inch doors or the Sargent 78-2875 outside knob only reads as a knob-and-rose set but is trim for a panic device, not standalone door hardware. Second, the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob 6-pack with adjustable backset and the Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob combo pack are multi-door packs built around backset-adjustable latches, where the Butte dummy is surface mount with no door prep and operates nothing.

The Butte sandcast bronze dummy pair handles the non-latching leaves. For a closet or hall door that must latch, passage function is the match: the Corbin Russwin CK4410 is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lock for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage ball knob covers the same thickness range, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 passage knob lockset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. None of these are sandcast bronze, so if visual consistency is the priority, keep to Emtek Sandcast Bronze knobs in a passage function rather than mixing brands.

Sandcast bronze, which is what gives the knob its slightly irregular surface and the hand-worked look in the Rustic Living range. Sand casting means no two pieces are identical in texture, which is expected rather than a defect.
