Baldwin 5116003RDM – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a half dummy lever actually do, and when would I use the Baldwin 5116 instead of a passage lever?
A half dummy is a single lever mounted on one face of the door with no latch and no moving mechanism. The Baldwin 5116 with 5070 rose is a pull only, so it suits closet doors, cabinet or pantry doors, and the inactive leaf of a French pair where nothing has to latch. If the door needs to stay closed and open by turning the handle, you want a passage set instead, such as the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever or the Bravura Atlanta round rose passage lever.
2) Is the Baldwin 5116 half dummy sold as one lever or a pair?
It is a single lever for one side of the door, in the right hand orientation. For a French or double door where you want a matching pull on each face, you need two half dummies, or a dummy pair such as the Emtek Cortina dummy pair, which is sold as a set of two.
3) How do I know whether I need the right hand or left hand Baldwin 5116 dummy lever?
Stand on the side of the door the lever will be mounted on. If the lever body points to your right from the rose, that is the right hand version, which is what the 5116 RDM is. Baldwin also lists the 5116 as reversible handing on the lever style itself, but a half dummy is fixed once mounted, so order the hand that matches the side you are trimming.
4) Will the Baldwin 5116 dummy lever work on a 1-3/8 inch door?
Yes. The 5116 covers doors from 1.375 inches up to 1.75 inches thick, so a standard 1-3/8 inch interior door and a 1-3/4 inch door both work. Anything thicker than 1-3/4 inches is outside the range.
5) What is a commercial-grade alternative to the Baldwin 5116 half dummy lever for a heavy-traffic opening?
The Baldwin 5116 with 5070 rose is a half dummy lever built for residential use. For the same dummy trim function in a heavy-duty commercial specification, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim cylindrical lever is a Grade 1 heavy-duty non-keyed dummy, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy-duty single dummy cylindrical lever in the 5400 Series. Both give you a lever that is fixed and operates nothing, which is what a dummy does.
6) What should I order instead of the Baldwin 5116 half dummy if the door actually needs to latch?
A half dummy has no latch at all, so if the door needs to stay closed you need a passage lever instead. Residential-duty options include the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever, a Grade 3 passage set for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Callan Asheville, a Grade 3 passage leverset. For a commercial passage lever, the Falcon K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty with non-handed levers and a fire rating.
7) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Baldwin 5116 half dummy work, and what fits if it does not?
The Baldwin 5116 half dummy is rated for doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, so a 2 inch door is outside that range. Levers that cover 2 inch doors include the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 Sierra passage lever at 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch, and the Dexter C1000 asylum function at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
8) Can the Baldwin 5116 half dummy be keyed or used on an exterior entry door?
No - the 5116 is a half dummy, with no cylinder and no latch, so it cannot key or secure an opening. For a keyed entry lever, the Deltana 6201 Manchester and Deltana 6431 Linstead entry levers cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway with a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Master Lock RL Series is a Grade 3 keyed entry lever.
9) Do I have to bore the door for a Baldwin 5116 half dummy, and does the 2-3/8 inch backset matter?
A half dummy mounts to the door face and has no latch running to the edge, so no edge bore is needed. Baldwin lists the 5116 series against the 2-3/8 inch backset and the standard 2.125 inch cross bore preparation, which means it covers an existing bored hole if you are swapping out a working lockset for a dummy pull.
10) How far does the Baldwin 5116 lever stick out from the door?
Projection is 2.8 inches off the door face, with a 4.5 inch lever grip length on a round 5070 rose. Worth checking against a door that swings into a tight corner or beside a cabinet run, and against baseboard or trim clearance in a narrow hallway.
11) What finishes does the Baldwin 5116 half dummy lever come in so I can match the rest of my doors?
Eleven finishes: Polished Brass (003), Non-Lacquered Brass (031), Vintage Brass (033), Satin Brass (044), Polished Nickel (055), Satin Nickel (056), Graphite Nickel (076), Oil Rubbed Bronze (102), Venetian Bronze (112/11P), Satin Black (190) and Polished Chrome (260). Non-lacquered and oil rubbed bronze are living finishes that change with handling, so match those carefully against existing hardware.
12) What is the difference between the Baldwin 5116 half dummy and a privacy lever for a bath door?
The Baldwin 5116 is a dummy - a fixed lever with no latch and no locking mechanism - so it cannot secure a bathroom. A privacy set is the correct choice there: the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy lever is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2540 Grade 2 privacy lock uses the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
13) I need dummy levers on both faces of a double door - is the Baldwin 5116 the right part?
The Baldwin 5116 with 5070 rose is a half dummy, meaning one lever on one face. If you need trim on both faces, dummy pairs are sold as such: the Emtek Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair and the Emtek Cortina lever dummy pair from the Classic Brass leversets are both supplied as pairs. Ordering two half dummies is the other route, but a pair ships as a matched set.
14) Is a lever trim like the Corbin Russwin 585F715 a substitute for the Baldwin 5116 half dummy?
They are not interchangeable. The Corbin Russwin 585F715 is a Grade 1 lock lever for the ED8000 pushpad exit device and the CL3300 cylindrical lock series, so it mounts to those devices rather than to a bare door. The Baldwin 5116 is a standalone half dummy lever with the 5070 rose, tubular type, sized for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Imperial USA ED-EL500HD is likewise escutcheon lever trim in the ED-500 Series, not a dummy lockset.
15) What is the 5070 rose on the Baldwin 5116, and can I match it across other functions in the same house?
The 5070 is Baldwin's round rose trim, and the 5116 lever mounts to it. Because Baldwin builds the 5116 lever and 5070 rose combination across its bored lockset line, you can carry the same lever and round rose look from the closet dummy through to the working doors and keep the whole floor consistent.
