Baldwin 6320003RRLS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What backset does the Baldwin Estate 6320 mortise lock body use, and will it fit my existing mortise pocket?
The Estate 6320 lock body is built for a 2-1/2 inch backset, which is the deeper backset Baldwin uses on its handleset mortise bodies. That matters because most commercial mortise locks run 2-3/4 inch and standard residential bored locks run 2-3/8 inch, so the cylinder and knob centerlines will not land in the same place. The lock face is 1-1/4 by 8 inches, so the existing mortise pocket and edge cutout have to match that faceplate footprint as well.
2) What does Right Hand Reverse handing mean on this Baldwin 6320, and can I use it on a left hand door?
Right Hand Reverse means the door is hinged on the right as you face it and swings toward you (out). The 6320 body is supplied handed, so a right hand reverse body is not the one for a left hand or left hand reverse opening. Stand outside the door: hinges on the right and the door pulls toward you is RHR. Get the handing wrong and the latch bevel and lever rotation will be backwards.
3) Is this Baldwin Estate 6320 the full handleset or just the lock body?
This is the mortise lock body only, the Estate 6320 entry chassis with the 1 inch deadbolt. The exterior handleset, interior lever or knob trim, and the cylinder are separate items and have to be specified to match the finish and the door thickness. If you are replacing a failed chassis behind Baldwin trim you already own, the body alone is what you want.
4) Can I use the Baldwin Estate 6320 on a commercial office or school door?
No. The 6320 is a residential entry mortise lock built for houses and high-end entry doors. For a commercial opening you want a Grade 1 body such as the Cal-Royal NM8050 entrance/office mortise lockset, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 classroom lockset, or the Sargent 7900 Series dormitory function lock. Those are rated and built for institutional traffic; the Baldwin is not offered for that use.
5) The Baldwin Estate 6320 mortise body is residential entry - what should I use instead on a commercial opening that needs a Grade 1 entrance function?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 is a residential entry mortise lock body with a 2-1/2 inch backset. For a commercial entrance opening, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a heavy duty Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors. If the opening needs a keyed-outside, always-locked function instead, the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series and the Cal-Royal NM8080 is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset with an interchangeable core option.
6) Will an Emtek 3104 Hamilton mortise entrance lockset work as a substitute for the Baldwin Estate 6320?
No. The Emtek 3104 Hamilton and the related Emtek 3102 Memphis and 3106 Manhattan mortise entrance locksets are dummy function - they are trim only with no latching or locking action. The Baldwin Estate 6320 is a keyed entry mortise lock body with a 1 inch throw deadbolt and an ASA strike, so the Emtek dummy sets are only appropriate for an inactive leaf.
7) The Baldwin 6320 uses a 2-1/2 inch backset - what mortise locks are available if my door is prepped for 2-3/4 inch?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 mortise body is built to a 2-1/2 inch backset, so it will not drop into a 2-3/4 inch prep. The Hager 3800 Series mortise locks use a 2-3/4 inch backset, including the 3810S passage with rose, the 3810E passage with escutcheon and the 3850E office function with lever and escutcheon. The Sargent 4874 double cylinder mortise deadbolt also uses a 2-3/4 inch backset.
8) The Baldwin Estate 6320 is handed right hand reverse - is there a mortise lock that avoids handing altogether?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 body is ordered by hand, with the right hand reverse configuration in 003 Polished Brass PVD. If you would rather not commit to a hand at order time, the BEST 45H Series heavy duty mortise lock body in public entrance function is field reversible, the Falcon MA101 Grade 1 heavy duty mortise passage lock is field reversible, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series deadbolt mortise lock is supplied with no handing.
9) My door is thinner than standard - does the Baldwin 6320 fit, or should I look at an ornamental iron mortise lock?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 covers doors 1-3/8 inch and over. For a narrow 1 inch stile such as ornamental iron, the Marks USA 21AC and 22AC entrance double cylinder ornamental iron mortise locks with round knob are built for 1 inch door thickness.
10) I need a keyless or electronic mortise lock instead of a keyed Baldwin entry lock. What are the options?
The Estate 6320 is a mechanical keyed entry body with no electronic option. For keypad or credential access on a mortise prep, look at the Alarm Lock DL2700CR Trilogy T2 weatherproof keypad lock, the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 pushbutton mortise lock, or the Schlage CO-100 standalone electronic mortise lock. Note those are commercial-duty bodies, so the door prep and backset will differ from the Baldwin.
11) Does the Baldwin Estate 6320 lock and unlock from both sides, or is it a deadbolt only?
It is an entry function body, so it has both a keyed latch operation and the separate 1 inch deadbolt, worked by key outside and thumbturn or lever inside depending on the trim you pair with it. It is not a deadbolt-only unit like the Sargent 4874 double cylinder mortise deadbolt or the Kaba Ilco 185 Series deadbolt body, which carry no latch and no handle operation.
12) Is there a keyless or electronic mortise lock I can use in place of the Baldwin Estate 6320 entry lock?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 is a mechanical keyed entry mortise body. For keyless credential control on a mortise prep, the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is an electronic pushbutton keyless mortise lock, the Schlage CO-100-MS standalone electronic mortise lock uses a keypad reader on 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Accentra NTM623-NR nexTouch Generation 3 mortise lock uses a capacitive touchscreen keypad with cylinder override and no deadbolt. Note the 6320 carries a 1 inch throw deadbolt, which the NTM623-NR does not.
13) I need a mortise lock for a bedroom or bath door, not an entry - what replaces the Baldwin 6320 there?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 is a keyed entry mortise lock body, so it is not the right function for a bed or bath door. The Cal-Royal NM8440 is a heavy duty Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with a deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3840S in the 3800 Series is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch thick.
14) I only need the deadbolt, not a full entry handleset - is there a simpler mortise option than the Baldwin 6320?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 combines a latch and a 1 inch throw deadbolt with saw-proof inserts in one entry body. If the opening only needs the bolt, the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series is a deadbolt function mortise lock supplied with no handing.
15) Can I use the Baldwin Estate 6320 on a classroom door, or do I need something else?
The Baldwin Estate 6320 is a residential entry mortise body and does not offer a classroom function. For a classroom opening, the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch, and the Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset with an ANSI strike.
16) What finish is the Baldwin 6320 entry mortise body supplied in?
Finish 003, Polished Brass PVD. PVD is a vapor-deposited coating rather than a lacquer, so it holds its color on a sun- and weather-exposed front door far better than plated brass. Match the 003 code across the handleset, interior trim, and cylinder so the whole opening reads the same.
