The 6020 is a 2-3/4 inch backset mortise body, so the centerline of the lever and cylinder sits 2-3/4 inches from the door edge. If your door is already prepped for a 2-3/4 inch backset mortise pocket, the geometry lines up. A door bored for the other common backset, 2-3/8 inches, will not line up without re-prepping.

Handing matters here. The 6020 body is ordered as either left hand or right hand, so you need to know the swing before you buy. Stand outside the door, on the side you key from: if the hinges are on your left, it is a left hand door; hinges on the right, right hand. Order the body to match, since this one is not field reversible on the order form.

This is a residential entrance mortise lock from Baldwin's Estate Series, built for houses and high-end residential entries. For a commercial opening, a leased office, a school corridor, a multi-family common door, you want a Grade 1 commercial mortise lockset instead: the Corbin Russwin ML2003 and the Cal-Royal NM8050 office/entrance body are both Grade 1 mortise locks for 1-3/4 inch doors.

Just the lock body, the mortise case that goes into the pocket in the door edge. It is the body used behind a Baldwin handleset with lever inside. Trim, levers, handle, cylinder and keys are separate items, so if you are building a complete opening you are ordering the body plus the trim set that suits the door.

The Baldwin 6020 is a residential entrance mortise lock body with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. Where the opening calls for a commercially graded entrance function instead, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a Grade 1 office/entrance mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Baldwin is built for residential handleset-by-lever use; the Cal-Royal is a Grade 1 lockset with the deadlatch feature.

The Baldwin 6020 is an entrance function lock, which is not a classroom function. For a classroom opening, the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 mortise classroom lockset in the ML2000 Series for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are keyed for classroom operation rather than residential entry.

The Baldwin 6020 is an entrance function lock and does not give you a privacy function. For privacy, the Hager 3840S is a 3800 Series Grade 1 privacy mortise lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inch, matching the 6020's 2-3/4 inch backset. The Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors.

No. The Baldwin 6020 is a working entrance mortise lock body with a 1 inch throw deadbolt that deadlocks the latch bolt when extended. The Emtek 3104 Hamilton mortise entrance lockset is a dummy function, as are the Emtek 3019 Brisbane, 3102 Memphis and 3106 Manhattan. Dummy trim has no latch and no deadbolt, so it will not secure an entry door - it is used on a fixed or inactive leaf.

The Baldwin 6020 is built for doors 1-3/4 inch and over, so it will not suit a thin iron stile. The Marks USA 21AC is an entrance double cylinder Unilock ornamental iron mortise lock with round knob for 1 inch doors, and the Marks USA 22AC is an entrance double cylinder ornamental iron mortise lock with round knob, also for 1 inch doors.

One inch of deadbolt throw, with saw-proof inserts in the bolt to resist a blade attack through the gap between door and frame. A full 1 inch throw means the strike pocket in your jamb needs to be deep enough to take it, so if you are replacing a shorter residential bolt, check the mortise in the frame before you close the door on it.

It does. When the deadbolt is extended, it deadlocks the latch bolt, so the handle will not retract the latch while the door is bolted. On an entry door that means one turn secures both the latch and the bolt rather than leaving the latch free to be shimmed.

The 6020 is a keyed mechanical entrance body with no electronic option. If you want code or credential entry in a mortise pocket, the Alarm Lock DL2700CR Trilogy is a Grade 1 keypad mortise lock for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, the Dormakaba E-Plex 2066 is a pushbutton keyless mortise lock, and the Schlage CO-100 is a standalone electronic Grade 1 mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors. Note the Alarm Lock door range stops at 1-7/8 inches, so a very thick entry door rules it out.

It would be, yes. The 6020 combines a latch and a 1 inch deadbolt in one entrance body, which is what you want on a main entry door with a handle. If the door already has a separate handle and you just need the bolt, a straight mortise deadbolt like the Sargent 4874 double cylinder with a 2-3/4 inch backset does that job on its own.

Only on the entry doors. The 6020 is an entrance function body, keyed outside with a deadbolt, which is right for front, back and side exterior doors 1-3/4 inches and thicker. Interior doors need different functions: privacy for bed and bath, passage for halls and closets. Matching the look across the house is done with the trim and finish, not by putting an entrance body on every door.

The Baldwin 6020 is a keyed entrance lock with a deadbolt. Where the opening only needs to latch, the Hager 3810S is a 3800 Series Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose and a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 to 2-1/2 inch doors, and the 3810E is the same passage lock with escutcheon trim. The Schlage PM010 is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors. All three latch only, with no key and no deadbolt.

The Baldwin 6020 is a mechanical entrance mortise lock. For keyless entry on the same mortise prep, the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 entry/egress electronic pushbutton and card mortise lock, and the Accentra NTM623-NR is a Grade 1 nexTouch Generation 3 mortise lock with a capacitive touchscreen keypad and cylinder override, with no deadbolt. The BEST 45HZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad mortise lock with key override.

Not on its own. The Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset in the 4870 Series - it is deadbolt only, with no latch and no lever operation. The Baldwin 6020 combines a latch bolt with a 1 inch throw deadbolt that deadlocks the latch when extended, and is handed left or right. Use the 4874 when the door already has a separate latch or closer arrangement and only needs a deadbolt added.

The Baldwin 6020 is a residential entrance lock. For corridor and dormitory openings, the Sargent 7925 is a Grade 1 heavy duty dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt in the 7900 Series. The BEST 45HCAC is a heavy duty public entrance function mortise lock body in the 45H Series with field reversible operation, which removes the need to order handing.

The Baldwin 6020 is ordered left hand or right hand, so the handing has to be confirmed at the opening before ordering. If you want to avoid handing on the order, the BEST 45HCAC heavy duty mortise lock body is field reversible, the Falcon MA101 Grade 1 heavy-duty mortise passage lock is field reversible, and the Kaba Ilco 185 Series mortise lock is supplied with no handing.

The Baldwin 6020 is a residential entrance mortise lock body with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1 inch throw deadbolt with saw-proof inserts. The Cal-Royal NM8080 is a heavy duty Grade 1 storeroom mortise lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors with an interchangeable core option, and the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series with the Arcadia lever. Storeroom function keeps the outside lever locked at all times, while the 6020 is an entry function.

Two: 003 Polished Brass PVD and 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze. Both are offered in left and right hand. PVD polished brass is the finish to pick when you want the brass on an exterior door to stay bright without repolishing; oil rubbed bronze is the darker living finish that darkens and wears with handling.
