Emtek 5212ROUUS15 Round Knob Privacy Set Satin Nickel

Product Description

The EMTEK 5212ROUUS15 is a round knob privacy set finished in Satin Nickel, designed for interior doors where a turn-and-release privacy function is required. The set ships with a 2-3/8 inch backset and is paired with a Modern Rectangular Rose that provides a clean, contemporary mounting profile. It accommodates door thicknesses from 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches, making it suitable for standard residential interior doors. Installation is handled by finish carpenters, interior trim contractors, or experienced DIYers familiar with door hardware. The complete assembly weighs 2.85 pounds and ships as a single unit.

This privacy set is intended for interior doors such as bedrooms and bathrooms where a push-button or turn-button privacy lock is the required function. The Modern Rectangular Rose gives the knob a transitional-to-contemporary aesthetic that suits a wide range of interior design applications. The 2-3/8 inch backset is the most common backset dimension in residential construction and fits the majority of pre-bored door slabs. The Satin Nickel finish provides a brushed, low-sheen appearance that resists fingerprints better than polished alternatives.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by finish carpenters or experienced DIYers using a screwdriver and a tape measure to verify backset and door thickness before mounting. Confirm the door is pre-bored to the correct cross-bore and edge-bore dimensions before installing the latch and knob assembly. Privacy sets do not require a keyed cylinder but do require proper alignment of the privacy turn piece with the latch mechanism to ensure reliable lockout and emergency release function. Follow all applicable local building codes for hardware installation on egress and non-egress doors.
