Schlage F40 GEO 605 Georgian Door Knob, Bed & Bath Privacy Lock, Bright Brass

Easy install, great sleek look, works great.

These are regularly shaped door knobs, not levers or ball handles (mentioned because knob photos don't always demonstrate this). These knobs are generally great with clean and shiny brass, as advertised. Note there are two versions of the handles: (1) The pre-2022 has a press-fit knob that is hard, if not impossible to remove -- you may not need this feature. (2) Newer models have a spring pin allowing the knob to be pulled off to shorten its size, e.g. extra space helps moves in narrow hallways. The newer model was demanded by my space, so I had to buy several additional as older/newer models are intermingled. It's not a big deal if you don't care or don't have limitations, but it also does help to remove the handle to tighten the screws. Every few items, however, seemed to show either minor plating defects or a twisted the base plate that makes it hard to line up screws. It will NOT naturally pull into place! If you get one of these I'd either try to carefully twist the base plate with a smallish screwdriver leveraged against the screw hole or just return it. The plating issues were on portions of a couple knobs and made them look matte, not shiny. What else should you know? The base plate feels very slightly bigger than usual for door handles, which worked out great. The knobs feel a bit bulkier than some others so be ready for the look and feel. I gave the knobs a top score because when they are right, they are perfect.

I ordered two of these types of door knobs, one for a small closet, and one for the bathroom door (privacy knob). Unfortunately, the privacy knob they sent was not the one I had ordered, and was used/damaged/missing pieces. But! When I came to do a return of the item and selected the option that requested a replacement, this company sent me my replacement IMMEDIATELY. I got it SAME DAY. Talk about above and beyond service! These items were easy to install, fit great, feel sturdy and tight, and work flawlessly! Not to mention, they look GREAT. I will definitely be purchasing more from them.

Absolutely love this door knob. Not only was to easy to install, it looks great and very durable. We put this knob on our basement door because it gets alot of use. We have use just basic bathroom and bedroom knobs, but being a door that gets used the most they would break easy. This knob feels like higher quality than others amd anticipate it lasting much longer than others We have purchased.

Our house was built over 20 years ago and the door fixtures were starting to show their age. The original knobs were Kwikset and over the years they developed a lot of play in the knob. I was also looking to get away from the polished brass and go with something a little more subdued. I decided to go with Schlage since we did have a couple of Schlage knobs in our basement remodel and they seemed better built than the Kwikset knobs on the rest of the house. The knobs are a lot more solid than the Kwikset knobs. I even weighed them to compare and the 23 year old Kwikset knob was around 9 ounces, and the Schlage knob was over 12 ounces. However, I did end up replacing the basement knobs (so the finish would match), and the 8-year old Schlage knobs were over 14 ounces. The weight definitely make the knob feel much more solid in hand and the turn is also solid. The antique brass finish looks great, but it feels almost like a plastic coating on the knob. We'll see how well that will hold up over the years. I do have a couple of minor gripes that kept this from a 5 star rating. The strike plate that attaches to the jamb were slightly different than the old Kwikset strike plates. The Kwikset strike plates had a bigger opening and were more forgiving to where the latch would line up when it's shut. Most of our doors were mating up at the extreme bottom of the strike plate. So now with a new smaller strike plate this was causing a problem with a lot of our doors latching properly. Some doors I could make some adjustments to the hinges to make sure they were cinched up as far as possible. That worked for some doors. Other doors, I had to break out the Dremel and shave out a little bit on the strike plate to make a bigger opening. I figured this was better than moving the strike plate down which would then leave a noticeable gap on the jamb. All the doors close properly now, but it's also the dead of winter with very low humidity in the house. I may need to make more adjustments when summer humidity returns which can affect the wooden doors and how they're hung. My other (minor) gripe is the latch plate. The old Kwikset latch plate was rectangular and the new Schlage latch plate has rounded corners. It isn't a huge issue, but I now have an unsightly gap in each corner. I'm going to try some wood putty to see if I can cover it up, but I just wished that is was standardized so I wouldn't have to go through the trouble. Overall, I like the knobs. Even with adjusting the hinges and the strike plate modification the installation went quick. I installed 16 knobs in an afternoon. They are a lot more solid than the old knobs, and the finish is a lot better than what we originally had. One other note, I found the knobs for sale at about the same price at our chain big box stores in plastic blister packs. Amazon / Schlage ships these knobs in compact cardboard boxes which I liked better than dealing with all those plastic packs.

Love the character it brings to my pantry door. Good quality.

Very clean look. Great value.

Easy to install and a nice safety feature. When the knob is locked and you are exiting out the door, when the knob is turned (either direction), the knob is unlocked. If you exit without your key, you can still get back inside. You have to make an effort to lock the knob before closing the door. Plus, I got it keyed the same as the Schlage deadbolt.

This is top of the line product at a very reasonable price. Looks great and very pleased. Highly recommend.

Ótimo produto!

Used throughout my home and they look stunning

Bonne qualité, facile à installer.

I purchased this dummy door knob for my front door. It arrived quickly and came with a simple paper template for drilling the screw holes and installation instructions. It was simple to install and I think it looks good and feels good quality.
