Emtek 8231PUS19 Providence Privacy Knob Flat Black

Product Description

The EMTEK 8231PUS19 is a Providence style privacy door knob set finished in Flat Black, designed for interior doors where a turn-button or push-button privacy lock is required. It ships with a Quincy Rose and is configured for a 2-3/8 inch backset. The set fits doors ranging from 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches in thickness. Residential and light-commercial finish carpenters, door hardware specialists, and experienced DIYers install this hardware. The Flat Black finish provides a consistent, matte appearance suited to modern and transitional interior design schemes.

This privacy knob set is intended for interior doors in residential applications where privacy is needed without a keyed lockset — typically bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices. The Quincy Rose provides the trim plate interface between the knob and the door face. The 2-3/8 inch backset is the standard measurement for most pre-bored interior door slabs. Door thickness compatibility of 1-1/4 inches to 2 inches covers the full range of standard residential hollow-core and solid-core interior doors.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by finish carpenters or experienced DIYers using standard door hardware tools including a screwdriver and latch bore template if the door is not pre-bored. Confirm the existing bore diameter and backset measurement before installation to ensure proper fitment. No electrical disconnection is required, but the door should be removed from its swing or propped securely during hardware installation. Follow the manufacturer assembly instructions included with the unit, as privacy knob sets involve multiple components that must be oriented correctly relative to the door face.
