Baldwin 5091004 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Baldwin 5091004 spindle used for?
The 5091004 is a half dummy spindle, 7/8 inch long, used to mount current Baldwin Estate Series knobs and levers to escutcheon plates. A half dummy is the fixed, non-turning trim on one face of a door, so this spindle is what carries the knob or lever on that plate. It is not a lock or a latch, and it does not operate anything.
2) Will the 7/8 inch Baldwin half dummy spindle work with a thick escutcheon plate?
No. The 7/8 inch length is specified for thin escutcheons, 1 inch thick. On a heavier escutcheon the spindle will not have enough length to seat the knob or lever properly, and you need the longer spindle for that plate instead.
3) Does the Baldwin 5091004 spindle fit older Estate knobs and levers?
It is specified for current Estate Series knobs and levers. Baldwin has changed Estate trim over the years, so if you are rebuilding a set that has been on the door a long time, match the knob or lever to the current Estate line before ordering this spindle.
4) Is the Baldwin Estate half dummy spindle rated for commercial door traffic?
Baldwin lists the 5091004 as residential. For an apartment turn or a house it is the right replacement part; for a high-traffic commercial opening you want commercial-grade trim rather than Estate dummy hardware.
5) What size options does the Baldwin 5091004 half dummy spindle come in?
One size only, 7/8 inch. If your escutcheon is thicker than the 1 inch thin plate this length is cut for, the 5091004 is not the spindle for that assembly.
