Baldwin 5020003PRIV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Baldwin Estate 5020 privacy knob fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or only a 1-3/4 inch one?
Both. The Estate 5020 Colonial privacy knob with the 5048 rose works on 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch thick doors, which covers standard interior residential doors and the heavier solid-core ones. It's set up for a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so it drops into either of the two bore layouts you'll find on an existing door. The edge bore is 1 inch.
2) What does the privacy function on the Baldwin 5020 knob actually do, and is it keyed?
Privacy means a bed and bath lock: it pushes or turns to lock from the inside and releases with an emergency tool from the outside. There is no key and no cylinder on the 5020 Colonial knob. If you need a key on the door, this is the wrong function; look at an entrance or keyed lock instead.
3) Does the Baldwin 5020 privacy knob come with a strike, or do I need to buy one separately?
A full lip strike ships with it, and privacy and passage functions also include a pre-drilled door adaptor. So for a door that's already bored you have the strike and the adaptor in the box. What you're adding separately is the latch backset choice, and Baldwin's Quick Ship program only runs with the 2-3/8 inch backset latch.
4) Is the Baldwin Estate 5020 knob rated for commercial traffic, or is it a residential lock?
Residential. The Estate 5020 Colonial knob is built for homes and light-traffic interior doors. For an office, school, or apartment common area where the door gets worked all day, a commercial cylindrical knob is the right call: the Dexter C2000 privacy knob is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty knob lock if you need the top tier.
5) I'm replacing a bathroom knob on a door that's already drilled. Will the Baldwin 5020 go straight in?
On a standard bored door, yes. The 5020 takes a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1 inch edge bore, which is the normal residential prep, and the pre-drilled door adaptor in the box handles a factory-bored door. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing hole to confirm which backset you have before ordering the latch. If the old lock was a lever on a rectangular plate rather than a round rose, the 5048 rose may not cover the old screw holes.
6) I need matching hardware for a closet door and a bedroom door. Does the Baldwin 5020 come in other functions?
The 5020 Colonial knob style is offered as a complete passage, privacy, full dummy, or half dummy set. Privacy for the bedroom and bathroom, passage for the closet or hall door that only needs to latch, dummy for a door that just needs a pull. Same knob and rose across all four, so the doors match.
7) My door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - what privacy or interior knob will fit?
The Baldwin Estate 5020 works with 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker leaf, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas Knob Privacy covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If the opening does not need privacy, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage and closet knob also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset goes to 2-1/4 inch.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Baldwin Estate 5020 privacy knob from another brand?
The Baldwin Estate 5020 is a non-keyed privacy knob in a cylindrical bored lockset. Two peers carry the same Privacy/Bed/Bath function in a knob: the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas Knob Privacy, which fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, and the Pamex FTF Baron Knob Lockset in privacy function, a Grade 3 knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Baldwin 5020 works on 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch doors, so the Pamex covers the same thickness span and the Deltana extends to a 2 inch door.
9) The door only needs a knob that turns, not a lock - what should I order instead of the 5020?
The Baldwin Estate 5020 is a privacy set, which means it latches and locks from inside the room. For a hall or closet door that only needs a latch, the Pamex FTF Baron Knob Lockset in passage function is a Grade 3 knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter C2000 Series Passage Cylindrical Ball Knob is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage knob over the same thickness range. The Baldwin Estate 5020 knob style is also offered in a passage function within the same collection.
10) Can I use the Baldwin 5020 on an exterior or keyed entry door?
No. The Baldwin Estate 5020 is non-keyed with a privacy function, so it has no cylinder. For a keyed opening, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance and office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob over the same thickness range, and the Deltana 6171 Round Knob Entry covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors in a round knob shape closer to the 5020's Colonial round profile.
11) Is the Baldwin Estate 5020 a good fit for a school or healthcare corridor door?
The Baldwin Estate 5020 is a residential privacy knob. Institutional openings usually call for a graded, heavy duty set with a specific function: the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom and closet knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, the BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance knob lock, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knob in the D Series, and the Dexter C2000 classroom knob is a Grade 2 keyed classroom function. The Falcon X101 carries a fire rating and is Grade 1 heavy duty.
12) Do I have to order the Baldwin Estate 5020 knob handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The 5020 Colonial knob is reversible, so the same set works on a left or right hand door and you sort it out at install rather than on the order form.
13) What finishes does the Baldwin Estate 5020 Colonial knob come in?
Eleven finishes: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 031 Non-Lacquered Brass, 033 Vintage Brass, 044 Satin Brass PVD, 055 Polished Nickel PVD, 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, 076 Lifetime PVD Graphite Nickel, 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 112 Venetian Bronze, 190 Satin Black, and 260 Polished Chrome. Two of those behave differently over time: 031 Non-Lacquered Brass is a living finish that darkens as it's handled, and 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze wears at the high points. The PVD finishes hold their appearance. If you're matching existing Baldwin Estate hardware in a house, match the finish number, not the name.
14) Can I mix the Baldwin 5020 knob with levers or a different rose on other doors in the same house?
Yes, and that's how the Estate line is meant to be specified. Knobs and levers are sold as a pair or as individuals, so you can run the 5020 Colonial knob on one side and a lever on the other, or pair either with a different rose. The same trim also works over mortise lock sets using handle set trim or escutcheon plates, which is how you keep an entry door and the interior doors reading as one set.
15) What's a cheaper privacy knob than the Baldwin Estate 5020 for a rental turnover?
For a unit turn where the look matters less than the cost per door, the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 privacy knob for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob with brass trim over the same thickness range. Step up to the Dexter C2000 privacy knob for Grade 2 if the doors take real traffic. The Baldwin Estate 5020 is a decorative residential set with a traditional round Colonial knob and eleven finish options, which is what you pay for in an owner-occupied home rather than a turnover.
16) Is there another traditional-looking privacy knob like the Baldwin Estate 5020 if I want a different knob shape?
The Deltana 6112 St. Thomas is a privacy knob in the same decorative vein and covers a wider door range, 1-3/8 to 2 inches, so it's the one to reach for on an unusually thick door. Emtek's Classic Brass Crystal knobs, Georgetown and Providence, give a period look too, but those are dummy sets with no latch, so they only work on a door that doesn't need to latch. The 5020 is a round Colonial knob on the 5048 rose.
17) I am standardizing bedroom and bath doors across a building - does the Baldwin 5020 backset match the alternatives?
The Baldwin Estate 5020 is offered in 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets with a 1 inch edge bore, and it is reversible so one part number covers both hands. Among the peers, the Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob combo pack ships with adjustable backsets and dual strikes, which suits a mixed-prep building, while the Falcon W101 Grade 2 knob lock is fixed at a 2-3/4 inch backset. Confirm the existing prep before committing a fleet quantity.
18) What separates the Baldwin Estate 5020 from other decorative interior knobs like Emtek or Omnia?
The Baldwin Estate 5020 Colonial is a traditional round knob sold in privacy function with the 5048 rose, in eleven finishes from Polished Brass PVD and Non-Lacquered Brass through Oil Rubbed Bronze, Satin Black and Polished Chrome. The decorative peers are dummy trim rather than working privacy sets: the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg knobset dummy pair, the Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Providence knob dummy pair, and the Omnia 434/0 traditional egg-shaped single dummy in solid brass. The Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped knob latchset is a passage latchset with a 3 inch projection.
19) The bathroom door needs to be lockable from outside for staff - can I substitute for the 5020?
A privacy knob such as the Baldwin Estate 5020 locks only from the inside of the room and takes no key. Where staff need outside control, the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 storeroom and closet knob lock with a single cylinder in standard duty, and the Sargent 8XG04 is the Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom equivalent with a 2-3/4 inch backset. For an office-style opening the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance and office cylindrical lock with a conventional cylinder for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
