Emtek cylindrical locks are just like schlage A-series.

Kwikset part number 81087. If you search for Kwikset 81087 you will find several places to buy. (The other search engine - the one with a "G" followed by an "oogle" produces better results). Not expensive, shipping will make them seem expensive. I would call Kwikset consumer customer service (1-800-327-LOCK), they might mail you a couple. Never know. Otherwise, you can use a very small flat head screwdriver. If you really want the right item, buy a cheap Kwikset privacy lock for parts. Might be cheaper than the shipping.

I have no idea where my "keys" are. Drill a hole through the end of the screwdiver and attach a key ring and hang it with your other keys. You can use a SMALL flathead screwdriver to unlock them.
