Baldwin 6075102RLS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Baldwin 6075 mortise lock body fit a 1-3/4 inch door with a 2-3/4 inch backset?
Yes. The Baldwin 6075 is built on a 2-3/4 inch backset and is rated for doors 1-3/4 inches thick and over, which covers standard 1-3/4 inch entry doors as well as thicker custom slabs. The latch faceplate measures 1-1/4 by 8 inches, so the edge prep has to accept that pocket and face cutout.
2) What does emergency egress mean on a Baldwin 6075 entry mortise lock?
With the emergency egress function, turning the inside lever retracts both the latch and the deadbolt in one motion, so someone can get out without first unlocking the deadbolt separately. That is the behavior you want on a residential front or back entry door where a double-cylinder style deadbolt would otherwise trap occupants.
3) Is the Baldwin 6075 right hand lock body handed, and what if my door swings the other way?
Handing matters. The 6075 body sold with the Right Hand option is prepped for a right hand door and will not work on a left hand or left hand reverse opening. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right and the door swings away from you, that is right hand. If yours is the opposite, order the left hand body instead.
4) Is the Baldwin 6075 mortise lock a commercial Grade 1 lock or a residential one?
It is a residential lock from Baldwin's Estate Series, intended for homes and high-end residential entries rather than commercial traffic. If you need a commercial Grade 1 mortise body for an office, school, or multi-family corridor, look at something like the Cal-Royal NM8050 entrance/office mortise lockset or the Corbin Russwin ML2003 classroom lockset instead.
5) Does the Baldwin 6075 come with levers, roses, and a cylinder, or is it just the lock body?
What ships here is the 6075 mortise lock body itself. It is configured for lever by lever trim (the same chassis supports knob by knob), so you select and order the Estate Series trim, rosettes or escutcheons, and cylinder separately to complete the opening. Choose the trim finish to match the 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze body.
6) I am replacing an old mortise lock in an existing door. Will the Baldwin 6075 drop into the same pocket?
It depends on your existing prep. The 6075 needs a 2-3/4 inch backset pocket and a face cutout that matches a 1-1/4 by 8 inch faceplate, on a door 1-3/4 inches or thicker. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing knob or lever hole and check the old faceplate before you order; a 2-3/8 inch backset prep or a shorter faceplate will need the pocket reworked.
7) Is the Baldwin 6075 the right lock for a classroom door?
No. The 6075 is an entrance function with emergency egress, intended for residential entry doors. Classroom openings call for a classroom function: the Cal-Royal NM8070 is a heavy duty Grade 1 classroom mortise lockset with auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin ML2003 is a Grade 1 ML2000 Series classroom mortise lockset for the same door thickness. For classroom security with a visual indicator, the Marks USA LA318GJ is a Grade 1 classroom security indicator mortise lockset with ANSI strike.
8) The Baldwin 6075 mortise lock body is residential Estate Series - what do I use on a commercial opening that needs a Grade 1 entrance function?
The Baldwin 6075 is an entry-function mortise lock body from the Estate Series and is designated residential. For a commercial entrance opening, the Cal-Royal NM8050 is a heavy duty Grade 1 entrance/office mortise lockset with an auxiliary deadlatch for 1-3/4 inch doors. If the opening needs key-retracting storeroom behavior instead, the Accentra 8805FL is a Grade 1 storeroom mortise lock in the 8800 Series.
9) I need a 2-3/4 inch backset mortise lock but the door is a non-keyed passage opening - what replaces the Baldwin 6075 there?
The 6075 is a keyed entry function with a 1 inch throw deadbolt, so it is more lock than a passage opening needs. The Hager 3810S is a Grade 1 passage mortise lock with rose trim on a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Hager 3810E is the same passage function with escutcheon trim; both cover 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/2 inch doors. Schlage PM010 is another non-keyed Grade 1 passage latch mortise lock for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) My multi-family corridor doors need egress from the inside with a deadbolt - is the Baldwin 6075 the right pick or is there a commercial equivalent?
The Baldwin 6075 does provide entrance with emergency egress and a 1 inch throw deadbolt, but it is an Estate Series residential lock. The commercial counterpart for that behavior is the Sargent 7925, a Grade 1 heavy duty dormitory exit function mortise lock with rose trim and a single cylinder deadbolt in the 7900 Series.
11) How secure is the deadbolt on the Baldwin 6075 mortise lock?
The 6075 throws a 1 inch deadbolt with saw-proof inserts in the bolt, so a blade dragged across it spins the hardened inserts instead of cutting. A 1 inch throw gives good engagement into a properly prepped frame strike; make sure the jamb pocket is drilled deep enough to take the full inch.
12) I only need a deadbolt, not a full entry lock like the Baldwin 6075 - what mortise deadbolt should I order?
The 6075 combines a latch and a 1 inch throw deadbolt in one mortise body with emergency egress. If the opening only needs the bolt, the Sargent 4874 is a double cylinder mortise deadbolt on a 2-3/4 inch backset, matching the 6075 backset. The Kaba Ilco 185 Series is another mortise deadbolt and is supplied with no handing.
13) The Baldwin 6075 is right hand only - what mortise lock can I stock that handles either hand?
The 6075 lock body is supplied right hand, so the hand has to be determined before ordering. If you need one body that covers both, the BEST 45H Series public entrance mortise lock body is heavy duty with field reversible operation, and the Falcon MA101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage mortise lock that is also field reversible. Note those are public entrance and passage functions rather than the keyed entry function of the 6075.
14) Can I use the Baldwin 6075 on a bedroom or bathroom door instead of a privacy lock?
The 6075 is a keyed entry function, so it is not a privacy set. For bed and bath openings, the Cal-Royal NM8440 is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lockset with deadbolt for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 3840S is a Grade 1 privacy mortise lock on a 2-3/4 inch backset for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, which keeps the same backset as the 6075.
15) What mortise lock do I use instead of the Baldwin 6075 if I want keypad or credential access rather than a key?
The 6075 is a mechanical keyed entry mortise lock body. For code or credential entry on a mortise prep, the Dormakaba E-Plex E5086 is a Grade 1 entry/egress electronic pushbutton and card mortise lock, the Accentra nexTouch NTM623-NR is a Grade 1 mortise lock with a capacitive touchscreen keypad and cylinder override, and the BEST 45HZ EZ Series is an electronic keypad mortise lock with key override.
16) Emtek mortise entrance locksets come up when I search the Baldwin 6075 - are they a substitute?
They are not a functional substitute. The Emtek 3102 Memphis, 3104 Hamilton, 3106 Manhattan, and 3019 Brisbane mortise entrance locksets are dummy function, meaning fixed trim with no latching or bolt operation. The Baldwin 6075 is a working entry mortise lock body with a 1 inch throw deadbolt and emergency egress. Use the Emtek dummy sets only on an inactive leaf.
17) The Baldwin 6075 needs a 1-3/4 inch or thicker door - what mortise lock fits a thinner door?
The 6075 is specified for doors 1-3/4 inch and over. For thinner stock, the Marks USA 21AC and 22AC ornamental iron entrance mortise locks with double cylinder and round knob are listed for 1 inch doors. On electronic openings, the Alarm Lock Trilogy DL2700CR and DL3500CR cover 1-5/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors.
18) For a behavioral health or ligature-resistant opening, is the Baldwin 6075 acceptable or should I spec something else?
The 6075 is an Estate Series residential entry mortise lock body and is not a ligature-resistant design. For those openings, the TownSteel MRX-L-01 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel anti-ligature lever passage mortise lockset and the MRX-A-01 is the arch trim version in satin stainless; the Marks USA 5PDN is a Grade 1 hospital passage mortise push/pull paddleset that is ligature resistant and ADA compliant.
19) What finish is the Baldwin 6075 mortise lock body available in?
Oil Rubbed Bronze, Baldwin finish code 102. If you are matching other hardware on the house, 102 is the living finish that darkens and wears through at contact points over time, so specify the same 102 code on the levers and rosettes rather than a similar looking bronze from another line.
