Polished Brass Knob Set

This solid brass door knob set matches the Em-D-Kay 48 pattern and fits Marks Metro surface-mount mortise locksets. The polished brass finish suits period restorations and traditional interiors. Supplied as one pair per box with two sets of screws per knob. Ideal for owners of compatible Metro hardware who need a direct replacement.

Split Spindle Fit

The 20 TPI split spindle engages the latch mechanism on Metro models 91A/3, 91A/3-X, 91DW/3, 91D/3, 71A/3, 9200A/3 and 7200A/3 plus imported versions. No lock body modification is required. Existing roses and escutcheons remain in place. Builders who need a different spindle thread or a non-split spindle cannot use this kit.

Included Fasteners

Two sets of mounting screws are provided with each knob, so the original hardware can be discarded. The extra set covers stripped holes or thicker door panels. No spindle wrench, lubricant or strike-plate hardware is included. Installers who prefer through-bolt mounting or need longer screws must source them separately.
