The Baldwin 5118 half dummy is a single lever that mounts on one face of the door only. There is no latch, no spindle through the door, and no turning action, it is a fixed pull. Use it on a door that does not latch at all, like a closet door held by a ball catch or roller catch, or on the inactive leaf of a pair. If you want a lever on both faces you need two of them, or a dummy pair set such as the Emtek Classic Brass Cortina dummy pair.

Yes. The 5118 covers doors from 1-3/8 inches up to 1-3/4 inches thick, so both the standard 1-3/4 inch door and the thinner 1-3/8 inch interior door are in range. Anything thicker than 1-3/4 inches is out of range for this one.

It does. The 5118 half dummy is built right hand reverse, so the lever points in a fixed direction once the rose is mounted and it cannot be flipped. Stand outside the door: if it is hinged on the right and swings toward you, that is right hand reverse. Get the hand wrong and the lever will point up or sit backwards against the door. Order the left hand version for the opposite opening.

A half dummy will not latch anything, so if the door needs to stay shut you want a passage set. Options that take the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range include the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever and the Dexter C1000 Grade 1 passage lever. For a bedroom or bath with a privacy push button, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy set covers the same thickness range.

For a commercial opening, 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 also a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever in the 5400 Series. The Baldwin 5118 half dummy with 5076 round rose is a residential leverset in solid forged brass with concealed fasteners, handed right hand reverse. The BEST and Accentra units are specified by ANSI/BHMA grade for commercial traffic, while the Baldwin is chosen for its Estate-style forged brass appearance.

No. The Baldwin 5118 is a half dummy, meaning one lever for one face of the door. For both faces, Emtek sells dummy pairs in several lever styles - the Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair, the Hammered lever dummy pair, and the Cortina lever dummy pair from the Classic Brass line - each supplied as a pair for a single door. Two Baldwin 5118 half dummies can also be ordered, one per face, if you want the Estate lever and 5076 round rose on both sides.

No. The Baldwin 5118 half dummy is rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a 2 inch door, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Deltana 6201 Manchester entry lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Those are latching functions rather than dummy trim, so match the function to what the door needs.

Projection is about 2.8 inches off the face of the door, with a 4.7 inch lever grip length. Worth checking against a door that swings back against a wall or into a tight return, and against any adjacent trim or a second door in a narrow closet reveal.

No cross bore or latch bore is needed. A half dummy has no latch and no through spindle, so it fastens to one face of the door with concealed fasteners behind the 5076 round rose. That also means it is the fix when someone already drilled a door and you only need a pull, or when you are adding a lever to an unbored slab.

It is catalogued residential and it is a dummy, with no grade rating behind it. For a commercial opening with traffic, look at a Grade 1 dummy trim like the BEST 9K Series 1DT or the Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy, or the Grade 2 BEST 7KC Series 1DT for lighter duty. The 5118 suits homes, model units, and high-end multi-family interiors where the look drives the choice.

Yes, that is the usual reason to buy it. The 5118 is the Estate lever on a 5076 round rose, so it matches the same lever and rose combination used on the functioning sets, and the dummy goes on the closet and inactive-leaf doors where no latch is wanted. Order the same finish code across the run, 033 Vintage Brass or 190 Satin Black, and mind the handing on each opening.

The Baldwin 5118 with 5076 rose is handed - this one is right hand reverse, so the lever throw has to match the opening. If you would rather not track handing per door, the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty dummy lever, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent, and the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever in the Bentley series. Confirm the lever style you want matches the rest of the opening before standardizing.

A few items sit close by and will not do the same job. The Corbin Russwin 585F715 is a Grade 1 lock lever for an ED8000 pushpad exit device in the CL3300 series - it is exit device trim, not standalone dummy trim. The Imperial USA ED-EL500HD is heavy duty escutcheon lever trim with an entry function, also exit device trim. And the Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware, a keying accessory. The Baldwin 5118 is a half dummy lever with a 5076 round rose that mounts directly to the door face.

The Baldwin 5118 pairs an Estate lever with the 5076 round rose in solid forged brass, offered in Vintage Brass and Satin Black. For closet doors where a latch is wanted, Bravura offers round-trim Grade 2 passage leversets in the Miramar, Atlanta and Orlando series, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. Bravura also offers the Tampa passage leverset with square trim if the rest of the unit uses square roses.

Two: 033 Vintage Brass and 190 Satin Black. Both are on solid forged brass, so the base metal is the same across the pair.
