Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a privacy function knobset?
A privacy function knobset features a turn button on the interior side that locks the door for privacy, and an emergency release mechanism on the exterior side that allows entry in emergency situations using a small tool or coin. This function is ideal for bathrooms and bedrooms where privacy is needed but emergency access must be maintained. - How does the emergency release work?
The exterior knob includes an emergency release slot that can be operated with a small flathead screwdriver, coin, or specialized emergency release tool. This allows entry from outside in emergency situations while maintaining normal privacy locking for everyday use. - What is Through Pin (TP) mounting?
Through Pin (TP) mounting uses a pin that passes through the door and knob assembly to secure the knobset. This provides a secure and reliable mounting method suitable for knobset applications while allowing straightforward installation and future servicing if required. - Can this privacy knobset be used on bathroom doors?
Yes. This privacy knobset is specifically designed for bathroom applications where privacy locking is required along with emergency release capability. The turn button locks from inside while the emergency release allows access from outside in emergency situations, meeting safety requirements for bathroom installations. - What is the adjustable backset and why does it matter?
The backset is the distance from the door edge to the centre of the knob. This knobset has an adjustable 60-70mm backset, allowing it to suit different door preparations. Always measure your door preparation before installation to ensure correct backset adjustment. - Is this suitable for both left and right-hand doors?
Yes. The Symmetry Bell TP privacy knobset is reversible and suitable for both left-hand and right-hand door applications, providing installation flexibility without requiring separate handed versions.

The satin stainless steel finish provides contemporary brushed appearance with durability suitable for residential applications. This finish coordinates with modern interior hardware and appliances while offering resistance to corrosion and tarnishing. The 5 year finish guarantee covers tarnishing, discoloration, or corrosion when properly maintained. - Through Pin Mounting System:
The Through Pin (TP) mounting system provides secure installation appropriate for privacy knobset applications. The pin passes through the door and knob assembly to hold the hardware firmly in place while allowing straightforward installation and future maintenance if required. - Tubular Latch Mechanism:
The 60-70mm adjustable tubular latch provides 13mm throw for positive door engagement. The D-strike includes an anti-rattle tab as standard, reducing noise and movement when the door is closed.

Suitable for door thickness from 30mm to 51mm, covering a broad range of residential door constructions. Note that the minimum door thickness is 30mm for knobsets, which is thinner than the 35mm minimum for many leversets, providing flexibility for various door applications. - 5 Year Finish Guarantee:

Lockwood guarantees to replace Symmetry products if within five years from the proven date of purchase they tarnish, discolour, or corrode when properly installed and subject to no more than fair wear and tear. - Coordinated Door Furniture Systems:
