Baldwin 5225102ENTR – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Baldwin Estate 5225 egg knob fit a standard 1-3/8 inch interior door, or does it need a thicker door?
Door thickness range on the 5225 keyed entry knob is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so both the common older interior door and the standard 1-3/4 inch door are covered with no shims or extension kit. It installs into the 2-1/8 inch standard cross bore, which is what nearly every existing knob or lever already sits in, so on a door that has hardware on it today the prep is usually already right.
2) What backset does the Baldwin 5225 keyed entry knob use, and will it hit my existing bore?
Both standard backsets are covered: 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch. Those are the two backsets used on virtually all residential and light commercial bored doors, so if you measure from the door edge to the center of the existing 2-1/8 inch hole and get either number, the 5225 lines up with the bore and the existing latch mortise in the edge.
3) Do I have to order the Baldwin 5225 egg knob handed for a left or right swing door?
No handing to specify. The 5225 is reversible, so one part number covers left hand, right hand, left hand reverse and right hand reverse. That matters if you're buying several for a house or a building, because you can order a single quantity and sort out which door each goes on at install time instead of counting swings first.
4) What does emergency egress mean on a Baldwin 5225 keyed entry knob, and is it safe for a bedroom or apartment door?
Emergency egress means the inside knob always retracts the latch and lets you out, even when the outside is locked. It's a single cylinder entry lock: key on the outside, thumbturn or button on the inside, and turning the inside knob releases the lock so nobody gets trapped behind it. That is the behavior you want on any door people are behind, which is why single cylinder entry is the normal choice for apartments and bedrooms rather than a double cylinder that needs a key on both sides.
5) Can I get several Baldwin 5225 knobs keyed alike so one key runs all the doors?
Yes. Keyed alike and keyed different are both available when ordering the 5225, so a set for a house or a unit can run on one key. The cylinder is Baldwin's C keyway, so anything else you key into the same system has to be a C keyway cylinder too, and an existing Kwikset or Schlage key will not work with it.
6) Is the Baldwin Estate 5225 knob rated for a commercial building or an apartment turnover?
The 5225 is a residential lock, built for the door of a home or a unit rather than a corridor or an office suite. For an opening that takes real traffic, the comparable commercial knob locks are what you want instead: the BEST 8K Series entrance knob lock is Grade 1 heavy duty entrance function, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office cylindrical knob lock that covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Use the 5225 where the finish and the egg shape matter and the traffic is a household's worth.
7) I want an egg knob entry lock but need it on a 2 inch thick door. What are my options?
The Baldwin 5225 stops at 1-3/4 inches, so it won't work on a 2 inch door. The Deltana 3381 Egg Knob Entry covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches and is the egg shaped entry knob to use on that thicker slab. Deltana's 6171 Round Knob Entry covers the same 1-3/8 to 2 inch range if the egg profile isn't the reason you're buying.
8) Will the Baldwin 5225 replace the Kwikset entry knob that's on my door now?
Physically, yes, in most cases. Both are residential bored knob locks for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors in the standard 2-1/8 inch bore, and the 5225 covers both 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 backsets, so it drops into the same hole. What does not carry over is the key: the 5225 uses Baldwin's C keyway, so your existing Kwikset key won't operate it and any doors you want on one key have to be rekeyed as a group.
9) What is a keyed entry knob equivalent to the Baldwin 5225 egg knob in another brand?
The Deltana 3381 Egg Knob Entry is the closest match in shape and function: it is an egg-shaped knob in an entry function, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Baldwin 5225 is an egg knob keyed entry with a single cylinder and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. If the egg profile is what is being matched across a house or a unit, the 3381 carries the same silhouette in a keyed entry.
10) Is a Kwikset 400P Polo a substitute for the Baldwin 5225?
Both are keyed entry knobs. The Kwikset 400P Polo is a keyed entry knob shipped with a 6AL latch and RCS strike, and the 400P-CP version is Grade 3 fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Baldwin 5225 is an egg knob on a classic rose with a C-keyway cylinder and a reversible hand, fitting the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range. The knob shape and the keyway differ, so the 400P will not key into an existing C-keyway system and will not match an egg knob on adjacent doors.
11) What keyed entry knob works on a 2 inch thick door where the 5225 does not fit?
The Baldwin 5225 covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a thicker leaf, the Deltana 6171 Round Knob Entry and the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob Entry both take doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office knob lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch as well. The Falcon X101 goes to 2-1/4 inch but is a passage function, not keyed.
12) I need a knob that stays locked outside and always free inside for a storage room. What instead of the 5225?
The 5225 is an entrance function, which is not a storeroom lock. For storeroom use, the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder, and the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in a storeroom function for an exit device.
13) What else do I need to buy to install the Baldwin 5225 egg knob on my door?
Nothing extra. The 5225 ships as a complete entry set with the latch, strike and mounting hardware needed to put it on the door. It uses Baldwin's concealed mounting system, so no screw heads show on the rose face once it's installed, which is the difference between it and an economy knobset where the through bolts are visible.
14) What finishes does the Baldwin 5225 egg knob come in?
Six finishes: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 050 Satin Brass Black, 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 112 Venetian Bronze, and 402 Distressed Oil Rubbed Bronze. The PVD finishes (003 and 056) are the ones to pick for an exterior door or a high touch door, since the satin nickel is nickel plated over solid brass with a PVD topcoat rather than a lacquer that wears through at the grip point. The 102 and 402 bronzes are living finishes and will change with handling.
15) I like the Baldwin 5225 egg knob but the door doesn't need to lock. What should I use on the closet and hall doors?
For a non locking door you want a passage or dummy knob, not the keyed 5225. In the same traditional egg shape, Omnia's 434/PA is an egg shaped knob latchset in passage function and the 434/0 is the single dummy version for a door that only needs a pull. Emtek's Hammered Egg dummy pair is another egg profile option for closet doors. Matching a keyed entry on the bedroom doors with passage sets on the closets is the normal way these go in.
16) Does the Baldwin Estate 5225 match other Estate knobs and levers already on the doors?
The 5225 is part of Baldwin's Estate Series and uses the Classic Rose, so it trims out with other Estate knobs and levers on the same rose and finish. If the rest of the doors in the house are Estate in, say, 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, ordering the 5225 in 056 keeps the whole run consistent. The egg knob is the shape here; Estate also runs lever styles if some openings need a lever instead.
17) What is a simpler keyed entry knobset than the Baldwin 5225 for rental turns?
For a straightforward keyed entry knob, the Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset and the Callan Canova and Callan Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets. The Master Lock BC Series biscuit knob is a Grade 3 keyed entry, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lockset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Baldwin 5225 is an Estate Series egg knob on a classic rose with a C-keyway cylinder, and can be ordered keyed alike across a set of doors.
18) Can I use the Baldwin 5225 on a bedroom or bathroom door?
The 5225 is a keyed entry knob with a single cylinder, so it takes a key on the outside rather than a thumbturn privacy button. For bed and bath, the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob lockset is Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob is Grade 2 for the same thickness range, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob is a privacy function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
19) Which knob locks look like a keyed entry but are not?
Several egg and traditional knobs in the same visual family are non-keyed. The Omnia 434/0 and the Emtek hammered egg knob are dummy trim with no latch at all. The Omnia 434/PA is a passage latchset, which retracts a latch but never locks. The Arrow MK01 and RK01 are Grade 2 passage knobs, and the BEST 6K single dummy trim is Grade 2 dummy. The Baldwin 5225 is keyed with a single cylinder, so none of these will secure the opening the way it does.
20) What is a keyed entry knob alternative if I want to skip keys entirely on a side door?
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. The Baldwin 5225 uses a C-keyway cylinder and can be supplied keyed alike or keyed different, so it stays in a key system while the Lockey 3830 runs on a code instead.
21) Is there a knob combo pack that covers the exterior and interior doors together?
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, which covers a keyed exterior and matching interior trim in one order. The Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is sold as a 6-pack with an adjustable backset for an interior run. The Baldwin 5225 is ordered as an entry set per opening and takes a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset.
22) Does a Falcon or Schlage Grade 1 knob replace a Baldwin 5225 one for one?
Not on a keyed opening. The Falcon X101 is a heavy duty Grade 1 cylindrical knobset with an interchangeable core in a passage function, and the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage latch with an orbit knob. Both are passage, so neither locks. The Baldwin 5225 is a keyed entry with a single cylinder. If the swap has to hold a key, the BEST 8K entrance function single cylinder Grade 1 knob is the one to look at.
