Baldwin Estate 5230 Contemporary Knob with Round Rose Emergency Egress Keyed Entry

No. The 5230 is reversible, so one part number covers left hand and right hand openings, inswing or outswing. You set the hand at install rather than at order.

The 5230 uses Baldwin's C keyway, so it keys with other Baldwin C keyway cylinders. When ordering you choose keyed alike, so several sets operate on one key, or keyed different if each opening needs its own key.

It is built for residential use. For a leased entrance, a stairwell, or anything taking commercial traffic, go to an ANSI Grade 1 or 2 cylindrical set instead, such as the BEST 8K Series Grade 1 heavy duty entrance knob lock or the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office cylindrical lock. Those are the ones spec'd for commercial door schedules.

The Baldwin Estate 5230 is a single-cylinder keyed entry knob with a round rose, built for residential use on doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. Close alternatives in keyed entry knob form include the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob, a Grade 3 entrance function knob that also covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Master Lock BC01, a Grade 3 keyed entry knob in the BC Series with a biscuit knob. The Baldwin is solid forged brass with a concealed mounting system and a rose sized to cover a 2-1/8 inch bore.

The Baldwin Estate 5230 covers doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a thicker slab, the Deltana 6171 Round Knob entry and Deltana 3381 Egg Knob entry are entry-function knobs rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office cylindrical lock also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon X101 reaches 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, though it is a passage function with no cylinder.

The Baldwin Estate 5230 is a residential keyed entry knob, so for a commercial opening that needs an ANSI grade, step to a graded cylindrical lock. The BEST 8K Series entrance function single cylinder knob lock is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office cylindrical lock with a Global knob and conventional cylinder, listed Grade 1 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. For storeroom function instead of entrance, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset.

The Baldwin Estate 5230 is a C-keyway single cylinder set. If the building is already standardized on a Kwikset keyway, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same door thickness range the 5230 covers.

It is a keyed entry knobset with a single cylinder outside and a thumbturn inside, so the inside knob always retracts the latch and lets someone out without a key even when the outside is locked. That is what makes it suitable as a front entrance set rather than a double cylinder arrangement.

Both are keyed entry knobsets for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, but the 5230 is an Estate Series set in solid forged brass with a concealed mounting system, meaning no exposed screws on the rose. The Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is a Grade 3 entry knob supplied with an adjustable round corner latch and round corner strike. Pick the Baldwin where the finish and clean rose matter on a front door; pick the Kwikset for a utility or secondary opening.

The 5230 is keyed entry only, one function. For passage and privacy doors you need separate sets. Comparable residential-style options include the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob and the Pamex FTF Baron in privacy or passage function, all rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors (the Deltana goes to 2 inches).

No. The Bravura Albany and Bravura Lynchburg are both Grade 2 passage knobsets with round trim, meaning they latch but take no key and have no locking function. The Baldwin Estate 5230 is a keyed entry set with a single cylinder in the C-keyway. If the round rose look is what you are matching but the door does not need to lock, the Bravura passage sets share that round trim profile.

The Baldwin Estate 5230 handles the keyed entrance opening only. For the interior doors on the same job, the Pamex FTF Baron series runs parallel functions in Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors: FTF10 privacy and FTF30 passage. The Dexter C2000 Series also offers privacy and passage ball knob versions in Grade 2 across the same door thickness range, alongside its entry/office and classroom versions. For a non-functioning knob on an inactive leaf, the Cal-Royal BA40 is a dummy knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo function set - it pairs a keyed exterior device with knob trim and ships with adjustable backsets and dual strikes, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Baldwin Estate 5230 is a single-cylinder keyed entry knobset alone, in the C-keyway, with backset accommodating 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch and a reversible handing. If your opening already has a separate deadbolt, the 5230 covers the knob half; if you are dressing a bare door, the combo pack addresses both bores.

The Baldwin Estate 5230 is a residential C-keyway entry knob in the Estate Series. Where an ANSI grade is being specified for apartment entries, graded entrance knobsets include the Callan Edgewood and Callan Roland in Grade 2, the Callan Canova and Callan Santo in Grade 3, and the Delaney Belton, Galway, and Olivia in Grade 3. The Dexter C2000 entry/office ball knob is Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, matching the 5230 door thickness range.

It is offered in 044 Satin Brass PVD. The PVD process is applied over the solid forged brass body, which is why Baldwin backs it as a lifetime finish on the Estate line. If your other openings are a different Baldwin finish code, the knob will not visually match.

No. The round rose uses a concealed mounting system, so the face of the rose is clean with no visible fasteners. That is the main cosmetic difference from a typical through-bolted residential knob rose.
