Emtek 8221PUS26 Providence Privacy Knob Polished Chrome

Product Description

The EMTEK 8221PUS26 is a Providence style privacy knob set finished in Polished Chrome, designed for interior doors where a turn-button or emergency release lockset is required. The set includes a rectangular rose and is configured for a 2-3/8 inch backset. It fits doors ranging from 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches in thickness. Licensed locksmiths, finish carpenters, and general contractors install this hardware during new construction or renovation projects. The Polished Chrome finish provides a bright, mirror-like appearance suited to transitional and contemporary interior design schemes.

This privacy knob set is intended for interior residential and light commercial applications such as bedrooms and bathrooms, where a privacy lock function is needed rather than a keyed entry. The rectangular rose plate offers a clean architectural profile that complements modern and traditional door styles alike. The 2-3/8 inch backset is the standard dimension for most pre-bored interior doors, making this a straightforward replacement or new-installation fit in typical residential framing.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, locksmiths, or qualified general contractors using standard door hardware tools including a latch bore kit, chisels, and a screwdriver.

Confirm the door backset measurement before installation — the 2-3/8 inch backset on this unit is not field-adjustable. Follow the manufacturer instructions for spindle alignment and rose plate seating to ensure proper latch engagement.
