Baldwin 5015003IMR – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Baldwin Estate 5015 knob come with a latch and lock, or is it just the knob?
Knob and rose only. The 5015 is Estate Series trim, sold as a half pair (one knob), a pair, or a pinned pair, and it mounts with the 5017 rose. You add the function separately: pair it with roses for a passage or privacy set, or use it as trim on a mortise lock. If you want a complete cylindrical lockset in one box instead, look at something like the Dexter C2000 passage or privacy knob lock, which ships as a working lock.
2) Should I order the Baldwin 5015 as a half pair or a pair?
Depends on which side of the door you are dressing. A half pair is a single knob, which is what you want for a half dummy on a closet or pantry door, or when you are replacing one damaged knob and matching the finish on the other side. Order the pair for a two-sided passage, privacy, or full dummy set. There is also a pinned pair option, where the two knobs come pinned together as a set.
3) Is the Baldwin 5015 knob rated for a commercial building or is it residential trim?
Baldwin classes the Estate 5015 as residential. It gets specified into light commercial settings, retail, offices, and multifamily common areas, but it is not graded hardware. For a corridor, classroom, or anything on a fire door or a high-traffic opening, go to graded commercial product instead: the Falcon X101 is Grade 1 heavy duty with a fire rating and covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 8XG04 is Grade 1 storeroom with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
4) I need a round knob for bedroom and bathroom doors that locks. Does the Baldwin 5015 do that?
Not on its own. The 5015 is knob trim, so the privacy function comes from the set it goes into rather than from the knob itself. If you want a privacy knob that arrives ready to install, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas is a privacy knob for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob is a Grade 2 option for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Choose the 5015 when the look and the solid brass matter and you are building the set around it.
5) What is a comparable round knob to the Baldwin Estate 5015 if the door needs a working passage latch rather than knob trim alone?
The Baldwin Estate 5015 knob with 5017 rose is knob and rose trim in solid forged brass, sold as a Half Pair, Pair, or Pair (PINNED). For an opening that needs a complete latching passage set, the Omnia 434/PA is a traditional egg-shaped knob latchset in solid brass with a 3 inch projection, and the Deltana 6171 Round Knob is an entry function knob in the Round Knob series for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Both arrive as a functioning set rather than trim you pair to a chassis.
6) What should I use instead of a Baldwin Estate 5015 knob on a commercial opening that has to meet an ANSI grade?
The Baldwin Estate 5015 is an Estate Series residential knob. Where a graded cylindrical lock is called for, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed passage knob lock with an Orbit knob in the D Series, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset with an interchangeable core, fire rated, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. For a Grade 2 medium duty passage opening, the Falcon W101 is a fire rated Grade 2 knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
7) I need a keyed knob on the door, not just knob trim - what takes the place of the Baldwin 5015?
The 5015 knob with 5017 rose is non-keyed trim. For a keyed opening, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical lock with a Global knob and a conventional cylinder for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch; the Dexter C2000 entry/office is a Grade 2 keyed ball knob lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors; and the Kwikset 400P-CP is a Grade 3 keyed entry Polo knob with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike.
8) Is a Sargent 78-2875 outside knob or an Imperial ED-BKL580 an alternative to a Baldwin 5015 knob?
No - those are exit device trim, not knob trim for a bored lock. The Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only with B design for the 7800 Series, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim with storeroom function in the ED-500 Series; the Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with knob and rose for 1-3/4 inch doors. Each mounts to an exit device chassis. The Baldwin Estate 5015 knob with 5017 rose is bored lockset trim.
9) For a storeroom or utility door, what replaces a Baldwin Estate 5015 knob?
Storeroom function keeps the outside knob locked at all times, which the Estate 5015 non-keyed knob does not do. The Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset in the 8X Line Series; the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock in the 6 Line Series. For a keyed entrance in the same family of openings, the BEST 8K is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder entrance knob lock.
10) Can I mix the Baldwin 5015 knob with levers on the same job?
Yes. Baldwin's Estate trim is built to be mixed, so you can run the 5015 round knob on closets and bedrooms and Estate levers elsewhere, or put a knob on one side of a door and a lever on the other. The knobs and levers also pair with a range of roses and escutcheon plates, which is how you carry one finish across a house or a building's interior doors without being locked into one handle shape.
11) What finishes does the Baldwin Estate 5015 knob come in, and which hold up outdoors or in a bathroom?
Fifteen finishes: Polished Brass PVD (003), Non-Lacquered Brass (031), Vintage Brass (033), Satin Brass PVD (044), Satin Brass Black (050), Polished Nickel PVD (055), Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel (056), Satin Brass Brown (060), Lifetime PVD Graphite Nickel (076), Oil Rubbed Bronze (102), Venetian Bronze (112), Antique Nickel (151), Satin Black (190), Polished Chrome (260), and Distressed Oil Rubbed Bronze (402). For humid rooms or anywhere hands are constantly on it, the PVD finishes are the ones to specify. Non-lacquered brass is the opposite choice on purpose: it will darken and patina with handling.
12) Do I need to order roses separately for a Baldwin 5015 knob?
The 5015 is configured with the 5017 rose. What you do need to decide separately is the function, because the knob and rose alone do not latch anything: a passage or privacy set needs the matching interior mechanism, and if you are trimming a mortise lock you specify handle set trim or an escutcheon plate instead of the rose. Work out the function first, then the knob quantity, then the finish.
13) I have Baldwin Estate hardware already on other doors. Will the 5015 match?
The 5015 is part of Baldwin's Estate Series, so it shares the finish system with the rest of Estate trim, and finish codes like 003, 056, and 102 carry across the line. Match on the code, not on the finish name, since brass and bronze descriptions vary between makers. If the existing doors are Baldwin Estate in 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, order the 5015 in 056 and the sheen will read the same.
14) Is the Schlage A170 dummy trim the same thing as a Baldwin 5015 half pair?
They serve a similar spot on the door but are built to different standards. The Schlage A170 is a Grade 2 heavy duty single dummy non-keyed cylindrical knob lock in the A Series for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. The BEST 6K single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty in the 6K Series. The Baldwin Estate 5015 is a solid forged brass Estate Series knob on a 5017 rose, offered in fifteen finishes including 031 Non-Lacquered Brass, 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze, and 402 Distressed Oil Rubbed Bronze.
15) What is a simpler round knob passage set than the Baldwin Estate 5015 for interior doors in a rental?
For a straightforward interior passage knob, the Arrow RK01 is a Grade 2 non-keyed ball knob passage lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch in the RK Series, the Kwikset 200P Polo is a passage door knob that ships with a 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike, and the Bravura Albany is a Grade 2 passage knobset with round trim. Each is a complete passage set rather than the forged brass Estate Series knob and rose.
16) What knob should go on a classroom door instead of a Baldwin Estate 5015?
Classroom function is keyed from the outside and always free-egress inside. The Dexter C2000 classroom is a Grade 2 keyed, non-clutching cylindrical ball knob lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. If the door carries an exit device instead, the Sargent 28C-KNOB is classroom function trim with knob and rose for 1-3/4 inch doors.
17) I need one keyed entry knob and matching passage knobs across a house - what covers that better than a Baldwin Estate 5015?
The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, so the keyed and non-keyed openings come from one series. Within Baldwin, the Estate 5015 knob with 5017 rose is offered as a Half Pair, Pair, and Pair (PINNED) in fifteen finishes, so a run of doors carries the same knob and finish throughout.
18) What decorative knob differs most from the Baldwin Estate 5015 round forged brass knob?
The Estate 5015 is a solid forged brass knob in a round design. Emtek Porcelain knobs ship as two knobs per set with a threaded rod, and the Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Providence is a crystal dummy knob pair - both put a non-metal knob face on the door. The Sure-Loc Bergen is a modern round knob and the Sure-Loc Arapaho is another knob profile in that line.
