Baldwin HDTAPRAR492 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is this a pair of levers or just one side?
One side only. The Reserve Taper non-turning lever is a single-sided trim, so a set of French doors or a two-sided closet door needs two of them ordered. For a factory pair in one box, Emtek sells dummy pairs such as the Arts & Crafts Lever Dummy (Pair) and the Classic Brass Cortina Lever Dummy (Pair).
2) Will the Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy lever cover the 2-1/8 inch bore hole already in my door?
Yes. It is built to the standard 2-1/8 inch cylindrical door prep, so it drops onto an existing bored door and hides the hole the old knob or lever came out of. The edge bore is 1 inch and the prep works at either the 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which are the two standard bored-lock backsets.
3) Will this dummy lever match the passage and privacy levers on the rest of my doors?
It is built to mirror the look of an active passage, privacy, or entry lever from the Baldwin Reserve collection, so a closet door gets the same face as the working doors beside it. To make the match read correctly, order it in the same Reserve finish and the same rose style as the active hardware on that run.
4) Can I use this Baldwin dummy lever on a commercial or institutional door?
It is classed as residential hardware and carries no keying at all, so it is aimed at homes, model units, and light multi-family interiors rather than a commercial opening with a duty or grade spec. If a job calls for a graded dummy trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy lever trim and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 medium duty version. Accentra's 455LN Augusta is another Grade 1 single dummy.
5) I need the closet door to stay closed by itself. What should I buy instead of this dummy lever?
A dummy will not hold a door, so go to a passage set with a live latch. Residential options include the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever, rated Grade 3 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, or Callan's Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset. For heavier traffic, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 passage lock covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
6) What should I use instead of the Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy lever if the door actually needs to latch?
A dummy lever does not latch - the Baldwin Reserve Taper is a non-turning trim for closet and hallway doors that need no latching. For a latching hall or closet door, passage-function levers include the Falcon B101 Grade 2 non-handed passage lever, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever with Withnell design for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton Grade 3 passage lever for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) What is a commercial-grade alternative to the Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy lever for a high-traffic opening?
The Baldwin Reserve Taper non-turning lever is a residential dummy leverset. For heavy-traffic commercial openings, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed dummy lever, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy cylindrical lever lock in the 5400 Series. Both hold the same dummy function - a fixed pull with no latch - in a commercial-rated body.
8) I need a fire-rated lever and the Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy does not suit - what are the options?
Dummy trim carries no latch, so it is not the part for a rated opening. Fire-rated cylindrical levers include the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, both listed with a fire rating.
9) Is the Baldwin Reserve Taper lever handed? Do I need left or right?
Handing is not a selection here because the lever does not rotate. Mount it with the lever pointing whichever way suits the swing of the opening. What you do choose is the rose shape, Rustic Arch or Rustic Square, and the finish.
10) What finish and rose combinations does the Reserve Taper rustic lever come in?
Four combinations total: 481 Dark Bronze or 492 White Bronze, each with either the RAR Rustic Arch Rose or the RSR Rustic Square Rose. The rose profile is the main visual decision, arch for a softer traditional look, square for a cleaner rustic line. Pick the same rose across a hallway so the dummy doors match the working doors.
11) Is there a key or a thumbturn on the Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy lever?
No keying and no privacy turn. It is non-keyed dummy trim with nothing operable behind the rose, which is why it suits closets and hallway doors that never need to be secured. For a bed or bath door needing a turn, look at a privacy set such as the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton or the Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever.
12) Can I mount this dummy lever on a door with no bore hole at all?
Yes. Since there is no latch running to the door edge, a dummy lever only needs fastening at the rose, so it can go on a solid slab with no cylindrical prep. The 2-1/8 inch prep compatibility matters when you are converting an already bored door; on new work you are not obliged to bore it. Baldwin publishes a dummy knob and lever instruction sheet covering the mounting.
13) What is a simpler dummy lever than the Baldwin Reserve Taper for a rental closet door?
The Baldwin Reserve Taper is a Reserve Series residential dummy lever offered with Rustic Arch and Rustic Square roses in Dark Bronze and White Bronze. For a plainer dummy on the same type of door, the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 medium duty single dummy trim lever.
14) The Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy has no keyed option - what keyed lever covers the same door style family?
The Baldwin Reserve Taper is non-keyed by design. If the opening needs a key, keyed cylindrical levers include the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever, Grade 2, 6-pin Schlage C keyway, 2-3/8 inch backset; the Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever with deadlocking latchbolt; and the Hager 2580 Grade 2 storeroom lock with Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
15) What is the difference between the Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy lever and a keypad leverset for an interior door?
The Baldwin Reserve Taper is a non-keyed dummy lever that mounts to a 2-1/8 inch standard door prep with no latch or lock behind it. Keypad leversets do the opposite job - the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock is Grade 2, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever with passage function and ADA compliance for 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and Emtek offers a Classic Keypad Leverset.
16) What decorative lever brands pair with the Baldwin Reserve Taper dummy on adjoining entry doors?
The Baldwin Reserve Taper is a residential dummy in the Reserve Series with a rustic design. For the entry doors nearby, Deltana offers entry levers including the 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant and 6431 Linstead, all for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, plus the 5851 Claremont entry lever.
