Baldwin 5173056PASS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What backset does the Baldwin 5173 lever need, and will it drop into an existing 2-1/8 inch bore?
The 5173 is built for a 2-3/8 inch backset and the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore, so it goes straight into a door already prepped for a residential tubular lockset. If the door you are replacing was drilled at a 2-3/4 inch backset, the latch hole will not line up.
2) Do I have to order the Baldwin 5173 lever handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 5173 lever is reversible, so one set covers left and right hand doors and you sort it out at install rather than on the order form. That matters if you are buying several for a floor of doors that swing different ways.
3) Does the Baldwin 5173 passage lever lock, or do I need a privacy set for a bathroom?
Passage only. The 5173 latches the door but has no button, no thumbturn and no key, so it is for halls, closets and pantry doors. For a bathroom or bedroom you need a privacy function set instead, such as the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever.
4) Is the Baldwin 5173 lever rated for a commercial building or apartment turnover?
The 5173 is a residential lockset, so it suits single family homes, condos and finished interiors where look matters. For corridor doors, offices or anything with real traffic, go commercial: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever fitting 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
5) My door is 2 inches thick - the Baldwin 5173 will not fit, what passage lever will?
The Baldwin 5173 tops out at a 1.75 inch door. For a 2 inch door with passage function, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever covering 1-3/8 to 2 inches, the Arrow GL01 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lock for 1-3/4 to 2 inches, and the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 passage lock reaching 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage/closet lever covers 1-3/4 to 2 inches.
6) The Baldwin 5173 has a 2-3/8 inch backset - what if my door is bored 2-3/4?
The Baldwin 5173 is specified at a 2-3/8 inch backset. Where the door is prepped 2-3/4, the Cal-Royal AG03 is a Grade 2 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway, keyed different, on a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Lockey 1150S is a mechanical keypad heavy duty lever set with an adjustable backset covering doors 1-1/8 to 2 inches, which suits an opening where the bore is not confirmed before ordering.
7) What is the closest commercial-grade equivalent to the Baldwin 5173 passage lever?
The Baldwin 5173 is a tubular cylindrical passage leverset with a 2-3/8 inch backset, reversible handing, and a residential designation. If the opening needs a certified commercial passage lever instead, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, covering doors 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches thick. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 is another Grade 1 passage/closet lever, vandal resistant and fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches. The Baldwin fits a thinner door range, 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so on a 2 inch door the Falcon or Corbin Russwin is the one that fits.
8) I need a lever that locks - what is the equivalent of the Baldwin 5173 with a privacy or keyed function?
The Baldwin 5173 is passage function, meaning the lever always retracts the latch and there is no locking of any kind. For a bed or bath door, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy leverset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy lock with a Tudor knob, fire rated. For a keyed opening, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lock with a lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt.
9) What passage lever holds up better than a Baldwin 5173 in a high traffic corridor?
The Baldwin 5173 is a residential leverset. Where the door cycles all day, the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lever with pressure release technology, and the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lock with non-handed levers for doors 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. The Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset with a flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the J75 is the Grade 2 flat lever version. The Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty passage lever with a non-handed design.
10) Is the Baldwin 5173 the right lever for a classroom, storeroom, or institutional door?
No, those openings need a keyed or restricted function and the Baldwin 5173 is passage, which never locks. For a classroom, the Dexter C1000 is a Grade 1 clutching classroom lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, with a classroom security version in the same series and range. For a storeroom, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. For an institutional or utility opening, the Dexter C1000 asylum function is Grade 1 across 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
11) What looks like a substitute for the Baldwin 5173 but is not a complete passage lockset?
A few items sit close in a search but do not replace a working passage set. The Corbin Russwin 585F715 is a Grade 1 lock lever, trim for an ED8000 pushpad exit device and the CL3300 cylindrical series, not a standalone lockset. The Imperial USA ED-EL500HD is a heavy duty escutcheon lever trim with entry function, again trim for a device. The Codelocks CL410 and CL415 tubular latchbolt is the latch alone. The Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware. The Baldwin 5173 is a full tubular passage leverset with the lever, the round rose, and the latch.
12) How far does the Baldwin 5173 lever stick out from the door, and how long is the lever?
Projection is 2.6 inches off the face of the door, with a 4.6 inch lever grip. Worth checking where the door swings against a wall, a cabinet run or a return corridor, because that projection plus the lever length is what catches.
13) What finishes can I get the Baldwin 5173 lever in to match the rest of my door hardware?
Eight finishes on the 5173: 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). The satin nickel is nickel plated over solid brass with a PVD topcoat, which is the one to pick if the hardware gets handled hard.
14) Can I use a dummy lever in place of a Baldwin 5173 passage set?
Only if the door does not latch. The Baldwin 5173 is a passage set that operates a latch through the 2-3/8 inch backset bore and holds the door closed. A dummy is surface trim with no latch at all: the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy trim, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the medium duty Grade 2 version. Use a dummy on an inactive leaf or a ball-catch door, and the 5173 where the latch has to do the work.
15) Which passage leversets match the round rose of the Baldwin 5173, and which are square?
The Baldwin 5173 uses the round 5046 rose. Among passage leversets, the Bravura Atlanta and the Bravura Orlando are both Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim, and the Bravura Miramar is a Grade 2 passage leverset with round trim in a US4 satin brass finish. The Bravura Tampa is the square trim version, a Grade 2 passage leverset. If the other doors already carry round escutcheons, the Tampa will read differently on the wall.
16) What is a simpler passage lever alternative to the Baldwin 5173 for a residential hallway or closet?
The Baldwin 5173 pairs a contemporary lever with a round 5046 rose in eight finishes including satin brass, polished nickel, and oil rubbed bronze. If the look matters less, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage leverset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Kwikset 200DL Delta is a reversible passage lock for interior hall and closet doors with an adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. All three carry the same passage function as the 5173.
17) Can a keypad lever replace a Baldwin 5173 on an interior door?
It changes what the door does. The Baldwin 5173 is a passage set with no locking and no credential. A keyless lever adds code entry: the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1 3/16 to 2 inches, the 2835DC is the double combination version over the same range, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination and passage function for 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors. The Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock, Grade 2. If the door only needs to latch and swing, the 5173 does that without a code to manage.
18) Which entry leversets share the door thickness range of the Baldwin 5173?
The Baldwin 5173 fits doors 1.37 to 1.75 inches thick, though it is passage function and does not lock. Keyed levers over a comparable range include the Cal-Royal AG00 entry lever, Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different on a 2-3/8 inch backset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AUS00 entrance/office lever, Grade 3 with a solid brass forged body over the same range, the Dexter C1000 entry/office Grade 1 clutching keyed lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4, and the Arrow HK11-BB turn-pushbutton entrance lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder, also 1-3/8 to 1-3/4. The Cal-Royal AG00 shares the 5173's 2-3/8 inch backset, so it drops into the same bore.
19) I need a matching dummy lever for a closet or a fixed inactive door. Does the Baldwin 5173 do that?
The 5173 is a working passage latch, not a dummy. For a non-latching pull on an inactive leaf or a false door, look at a dummy function set: Emtek sells its Classic Cortina lever as a dummy pair, and the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is the commercial equivalent.
20) Is the Baldwin 5173 a tubular or a mortise lock?
Tubular, cylindrical bored type. It installs through two holes in the door face rather than a routed mortise pocket, which is why a standard 2-1/8 inch prep at a 2-3/8 inch backset takes it with no additional machining.
21) I want a decorative lever like the Baldwin 5173 but on a door that does not latch - what are the options?
The Baldwin 5173 carries a contemporary lever on a round 5046 rose in eight finishes and operates a latch. For a non-latching leaf with a similar decorative intent, the Emtek Classic Brass Leverset Cortina is a dummy pair, and the Emtek Arts and Crafts leversets come as dummy pairs in both the Arts and Crafts lever and the Hammered lever. The Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. A dummy pair is trim on both faces with nothing to retract, so the door needs its own catch.
