Baldwin 5137190RDM – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What exactly is a Baldwin 5137 half dummy lever, and does it latch the door?
The Baldwin 5137 with 5046 rose is a half dummy: a single lever and rose that mounts to one face of the door with no latch, no spindle through the door, and no locking function. Nothing retracts and nothing engages a strike, so it will not hold a door closed. It is pull hardware for a fixed or inactive leaf, a closet door with a magnetic or roller catch, or the dead half of a pair where you want the trim to match the working side.
2) Does a half dummy lever need a bored hole in the door like a regular lockset?
No latch bore is required for a half dummy, because there is no latch or through spindle. The rose mounts to the door face with screws only. Baldwin does list this trim family against the standard 2-1/8 inch bored door prep, so if you are dressing a door that already has a 2-1/8 inch cross bore from an old lockset, the 5046 round rose covers it.
3) I need the handing right. Is the 5137 right hand lever reversible?
The 5137 lever itself is listed as reversible in handing, but this particular assembly is supplied as the RIGHT hand configuration, model 5137.RDM. On a dummy there is no latch to hand, only which way the lever points, so order the hand that matches the swing appearance you want. If the other openings on the job read left hand, order the left hand version instead so the levers point the same direction.
4) I ordered this for a bedroom door and it does not lock. What should I have bought?
A dummy has no latch and no privacy function, so it cannot be locked or even held shut. For a bedroom or bath you need a privacy lever such as the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy set, and for a hall or closet door that has to latch you need a passage lever, for example the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage set or the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever. Keep the dummy for the fixed leaf only.
5) What is a commercial-grade alternative to the Baldwin 5137 half dummy lever for a high-traffic opening?
The Baldwin 5137 with 5046 rose is a residential dummy leverset. For commercial traffic, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed dummy lever, and the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty version of the same idea. Accentra also offers the 455LN Augusta heavy duty Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever lock. All three are dummy function like the 5137, so they mount as a pull with no latch.
6) I need a lever that actually latches the door, not a dummy. What should I order instead of the Baldwin 5137?
The Baldwin 5137 is dummy function, meaning the lever is fixed and there is no latch or locking feature. If the door needs to latch, passage function is the equivalent in a working lock: the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage leverset is Grade 3, the Bravura Atlanta round-trim passage leverset and Callan Asheville passage leverset are residential-style options, and Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
7) What is the closest decorative dummy lever to the Baldwin 5137 if I want a different design look?
The Baldwin 5137 pairs a 4 inch grip lever with a round 5046 rose in a contemporary style. For a different aesthetic in the same dummy function, Emtek offers the Arts and Crafts lever dummy and the Hammered lever dummy in the Arts and Crafts series, and the Cortina lever dummy in the Classic Brass series. Note those Emtek dummies are sold as pairs, while the Baldwin 5137 half dummy is a single side.
8) The Baldwin 5137 will not work on my bathroom door. What privacy lever should I use?
Correct, the Baldwin 5137 has no privacy or locking feature, so it cannot serve a bath or bedroom door. Privacy-function alternatives include the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy leverset, Grade 3, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2540 Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
9) How far does the 5137 lever stick out from the door, and how long is the grip?
Projection off the face is 2.3 inches and the lever grip measures 4 inches. Worth checking against a door that swings into a tight corridor, a cabinet run, or a wall return, since a 4 inch lever with 2.3 inch projection needs clearance to be grabbed comfortably.
10) What finishes does the Baldwin 5137 half dummy come in so I can match the rest of my door hardware?
Eleven finishes: 003 Polished Brass, 031 Non-Lacquered Brass, 033 Vintage Brass, 044 Satin Brass, 055 Polished Nickel, 056 Satin Nickel, 076 Graphite Nickel, 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 112/11P Venetian Bronze, 190 Satin Black, and 260 Polished Chrome. Matching by Baldwin finish number is the reliable way to keep a dummy consistent with the passage and entry sets already on the other openings.
11) Should I buy a half dummy or a pair of dummy levers?
A half dummy gives you one lever for one face of the door. If you need trim on both sides of an inactive leaf, you want a dummy pair instead, such as the Emtek Classic Brass Cortina dummy pair or the Emtek Arts and Crafts dummy pair, both of which are supplied as pairs. Two half dummies will also do it, but you have to order two.
12) Does the Baldwin 5137 half dummy come with the screws and hardware to install it?
Mounting hardware is included, so nothing extra is needed to fix the lever and rose to the door. What is not included is a catch to hold the door, because the dummy has no latch. If the leaf needs to stay shut you will have to add a roller catch, ball catch, or magnetic catch separately. Baldwin publishes an installation guide for the trim as well.
13) Is there a lower-cost dummy lever that does the same job as the Baldwin 5137?
The Callan Bentley dummy lever is a Grade 2 dummy leverset and covers the same non-latching, fixed-lever application as the Baldwin 5137 half dummy. The BEST 7KC Series 1DT single dummy trim is another Grade 2 medium duty option. Both differ from the Baldwin in trim styling and finish range rather than in function.
14) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. What lever works where the Baldwin 5137 will not?
The Baldwin 5137 half dummy is built for doors from 1.375 inches to 1.75 inches thick. For thicker doors, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, the Dexter C1000 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and Deltana Manchester 6201 and Morant 6411 entry levers cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Note these are latching functions rather than dummy trim.
15) Which levers look like substitutes for the Baldwin 5137 half dummy but are not?
Keyed and electronic levers share the cylindrical bored-lock format but will not drop in where a dummy is specified. The Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever with 6-pin Schlage C keyway, the Corbin Russwin CL33903 Grade 1 electrified fail safe lever at 12VAC/DC, and the Emtek Classic keypad leverset all require a latch and, in the electrified case, wiring. The Baldwin 5137 is dummy trim with no latch and mounts to a surface-fixed rose.
16) What backset applies to the Baldwin 5137, and does it matter on a dummy?
Baldwin lists a 2-3/8 inch backset for the 5137 trim. On the half dummy there is no latch to line up, so the backset only tells you where the rose centers relative to the door edge. It matters most when you are mixing the dummy in with working 5137 sets on the same job, since 2-3/8 inch is the standard residential bore location and keeps all the levers at the same line.
17) What shape is the rose on the Baldwin 5137, and will it match square trim?
The 5046 rose is round. If the other doors carry square or rectangular trim it will not match visually, and a square-rose alternative like the Bravura Tampa passage leverset with square trim is the closer look. For round-rose jobs it lines up with the rest of the Baldwin 5046 family.
18) For a closet or pantry door where the Baldwin 5137 is only a pull, what passage lever matches a round rose look?
The Baldwin 5137 uses a round 5046 rose. For a latching closet door with similar round trim, the Bravura Miramar passage leverset with round trim in US4 Satin Brass and the Bravura Orlando passage leverset with round trim are both Grade 2 passage/closet function. The Bravura Tampa is the same family with square trim if you prefer a squared rose.
