Baldwin Estate 5208 Classic Knob Standard Keyed Entry with Classic Rose

Yes. The Estate 5208 Classic knob mounts to a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore, and the Classic rose is sized to conceal that bore completely. It works on doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, and it covers both common backsets, 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, so it drops onto typical residential prep without redrilling.

No handing to specify. The 5208 is reversible, so the same set works on a left or right hand door. What you do need to settle at order time is finish, backset (2-3/8 or 2-3/4), and whether you want the locks keyed alike or keyed different.

Yes. Keyed alike is an option on the 5208, so a front, back, and side door can all run one key. Keyed different is the alternative if each opening needs its own key. The lock uses Baldwin's C keyway, so it keys with other Baldwin C-keyway hardware rather than a Kwikset or Schlage key.

It's built as residential hardware, solid forged brass with a concealed mounting system, and it isn't carried with a commercial ANSI grade. For an apartment corridor or office traffic, look at a graded cylindrical knob instead: the BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance knob lock, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is another entrance/office cylindrical knob in the 4000 Series.

Use them to match the look on an inactive leaf or closet door while the 5208 handles the door that actually locks. The Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg and BEST 6K Series single dummy trim are dummy function as well.

The Baldwin Estate 5208 Classic Knob is a residential keyed entry knobset. Where the opening is fire rated, the Falcon W101 Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset carries a fire rating in the passage/closet latch function, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset is fire rated as well and accepts an interchangeable core.

Single cylinder. Key on the outside, turn button on the inside knob, which is the standard entrance arrangement. If your local code requires keyless egress on a door beside glass, single cylinder is what you want anyway.

The 5208 is the keyed entry function only, so it's the wrong part for a bed, bath, or closet door. Stay in the Baldwin Estate Series and order the Classic knob in the privacy or passage function with the same Classic rose so the openings match. If you're willing to change brands for the interior doors, Deltana's 6112 St. Thomas knob is a privacy set and the Pamex FTF Baron covers privacy and passage in Grade 3.

If you want the knob and deadbolt in one box, the Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the 5208 covers.

The Baldwin Estate 5208 Classic Knob uses a C-Keyway cylinder and can be ordered keyed alike across several doors. If you would rather not issue keys, the Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick. It is code-entry rather than key-operated, so it does not integrate with a C-Keyway system.

Three: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 031 Non-Lacquered Brass, and 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel. The two PVD finishes hold their appearance; 031 is a living finish that will darken and patina with handling, which is the point if you're matching aged brass elsewhere in the house.

No. The Classic rose uses a concealed mounting system, so the trim face is clean with no exposed fasteners, and the rose itself hides the 2-1/8 inch bore in the door.
