Emtek 8221PUS3NL Providence Privacy Knob Unlacquered Brass

Product Description

The EMTEK 8221PUS3NL is a Providence style privacy knob set finished in Unlacquered Brass, designed for interior doors where a turn-button or push-button lock is required without a keyed cylinder. The knob mounts on a rectangular rose and is configured for a 2-3/8 inch backset, which is the standard backset found on most residential interior prehung doors. The assembly is sold as a single unit and is suited for installation on doors ranging from 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches in thickness. Locksmiths, carpenters, and general contractors typically handle this type of installation during new construction or remodel finish-out.

This privacy knob set is appropriate for residential interior applications such as bathrooms, bedrooms, and home offices where a basic privacy lock function is needed. The Unlacquered Brass finish is a living finish that will develop a natural patina over time, making it a common choice in period-appropriate or transitional interior design schemes. The rectangular rose provides a clean, defined border at the door face and pairs with the Providence knob profile. Installation requires a standard cylindrical bore and a cross-bore sized to the specified backset.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a finish carpenter, locksmith, or experienced general contractor. Power down any associated electronic access systems before beginning work, and confirm the door bore and cross-bore dimensions match the 2-3/8 inch backset before ordering. Follow local building codes for hardware installation on egress and privacy doors. Do not over-tighten mounting screws, as this can cause the rose to warp or the knob mechanism to bind.
