Emtek 8040IWUS7 Ice White Porcelain Privacy Knob French Antique

Product Description

The EMTEK 8040IWUS7 is an ice white porcelain privacy knob set finished in French Antique Brass, designed for interior doors where a turn-button or coin-release privacy function is required. The knob mounts on a porcelain rose and is configured for a 2-3/8 inch backset, fitting doors ranging from 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches in thickness. Custom assembled in Southern California, this set pairs classic porcelain construction with a warm antique brass finish suited for period-style interiors, older homes, and high-end residential renovation work. Installation is handled by finish carpenters, general contractors, or skilled DIYers.

This privacy knob set is appropriate for interior bedroom and bathroom doors in residential applications where a lockable but emergency-releasable function is needed. The ice white porcelain knob and matching porcelain rose create a cohesive, period-appropriate aesthetic. The French Antique Brass finish complements traditional, farmhouse, and transitional design themes. The 2-3/8 inch backset is the standard dimension found in most pre-hung interior door preparations, making this a straightforward fit in typical new construction and retrofit scenarios.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a finish carpenter or qualified contractor using standard door hardware tools including a cross-tip screwdriver and latch installation kit. Confirm door thickness and backset measurement before installing to ensure proper latch and rose alignment. Privacy knob sets do not require a keyed cylinder but should be verified for correct spindle engagement before finalizing trim screws. Always test the turn-button and emergency release function after installation is complete.
