Emtek 86341-FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 1-1/4 inch round backplate cover the marks left by the old cabinet hardware?
Only if the old footprint sits inside 1-1/4 inches. The round plate is 1-1/4 inch, so it hides a single center screw hole and light wear around it. If you're coming off a larger rosette, a square plate, or a two-hole pull with 3 inch centers, it won't cover the extra holes, and you'll be filling and touching up the door faces.
2) Is this backplate mortised into the cabinet door or surface mounted?
Surface mount. It lays flat on the face of the door or drawer front and is captured by the knob screw through the existing bore, so there's no routing or recess work. That makes it a straightforward retrofit on cabinetry already drilled for a single-screw knob.
3) What finishes does the Emtek Sandcast Bronze round cabinet backplate come in?
Three: Flat Black Bronze (FB), Medium Bronze (MB) and Tumbled White Bronze (TWB), all in the 1-1/4 inch round size. These are Emtek's Sandcast Bronze finishes, so pair the backplate with knobs from the same Sandcast Bronze collection if you want the tone to match. Bronze sandcast finishes vary slightly piece to piece by nature of the casting.
4) Is this a solid bronze backplate or plated steel?
Solid bronze, cast rather than stamped, from Emtek's Sandcast Bronze collection. Substrate and material are both bronze, so the color goes through the metal instead of sitting on a plated surface. That matters on kitchen and bath cabinetry where a stamped plated plate wears through at the knob.
5) Can I use this Emtek backplate on commercial cabinetry or millwork?
Emtek lists the Sandcast Bronze round cabinet backplate as residential. It suits homes, and it also gets specified in hospitality and multi-family units where the look is the point, but it is not offered as a commercial-duty item and carries no commercial grading. For high-traffic institutional casework, spec a commercial cabinet hardware line instead.
6) How do I order the right part number for the Flat Black Bronze version?
The 1-1/4 inch round backplate in Flat Black Bronze is Emtek part SPC86341FB. The FB suffix is the finish code, the same way MB is Medium Bronze and TWB is Tumbled White Bronze on the other two.
7) Does this backplate work with a door knob or only a cabinet knob?
Cabinet knob only. Emtek lists the handle type as cabinet knob, and the 1-1/4 inch diameter is sized to a cabinet knob base, not a passage or privacy door knob rose. For entry and interior doors, use Emtek's door rosettes from the knobset and leverset line.
