Baldwin 5237003ENTR – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Baldwin 5237 Bethpage knob fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door, or does it need a 1-3/4 inch door?
Both work. The 5237 Bethpage keyed entry knob covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so it goes on a standard 1-3/4 inch exterior door or an older 1-3/8 inch interior slab without any spacer kit. It also drops into the 2.125 inch standard bored door prep, so an existing knob hole takes it directly.
2) Do I have to order the Baldwin 5237 Bethpage knob left hand or right hand?
Handing is not a factor here. The 5237 Bethpage is reversible, so one part number serves a left or right hand door swinging in or out. That matters if you are buying several for a building and do not want to sort them by opening.
3) Can I key the Baldwin Bethpage 5237 to match the other Baldwin locks in my house?
Yes, within the Baldwin C keyway. The 5237 Bethpage uses a single cylinder keyed on the C keyway, and you can order it keyed alike so several openings share one key, or keyed different so each door has its own. If your other Baldwin Estate hardware is on the C keyway, a keyed alike order puts them all on one key.
4) Can I replace an existing bored knob lock with the Baldwin 5237 Bethpage without new holes?
In most cases yes. The 5237 installs into the 2.125 inch standard bored preparation, works at either the 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, and is reversible for either hand. Check the diameter of the existing rose against the new Bethpage rose if the old trim was oversized, since a smaller rose will not cover a larger cut.
5) What is a commercial-grade keyed entry knob equivalent to the Baldwin 5237 Bethpage?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is a single cylinder keyed entry knob rated for residential use. Where an opening needs a commercial-duty keyed knob instead, the BEST 8K Series is an entrance function single cylinder knob lock at ANSI Grade 1, heavy duty. The Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office cylindrical knob lock at Grade 1 with a conventional cylinder and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. Both carry the keyed entrance function of the 5237 in a commercial line, while the Baldwin covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
6) What is a simpler keyed entry knob for a rental door instead of a Baldwin Estate knob?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is an Estate Series keyed entry knob with a C-Keyway cylinder. For a plainer keyed entry knob on the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and shipping with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. The Master Lock BC01 Biscuit knob is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob in the BC Series, and the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob with a Kwikset keyway for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Cal-Royal keyway matters if the building already keys to Kwikset.
7) I need a bed or bath knob to match a keyed entry knob - what do I order?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is a keyed entry function knob and will not work on a bathroom or bedroom door that needs an inside push-button. For those openings the Pamex FTF Baron knob is a Grade 3 privacy function knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter C2000 Series privacy ball knob is Grade 2 for the same thickness range, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob is a privacy function knob for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Deltana runs decorative shapes closer to the Estate look, while Dexter and Pamex are plain ball and knob profiles.
8) Is a dummy knob the same as a keyed entry knob?
No. The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is a keyed entry knob with a working latch and a single cylinder. A dummy knob is surface trim with no latch and no cylinder at all - it is used on inactive leaves and closet doors that pull shut. Examples in that group are the Schlage A170 single dummy trim, a Grade 2 non-keyed knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim at Grade 2 medium duty, and the Omnia 434/0 egg-shaped single dummy in solid brass. Ordering a dummy in place of the 5237 leaves the door with nothing to latch or lock.
9) What does entry function mean on the Baldwin 5237 Bethpage, and does the inside knob always open?
Entry function with a single cylinder: key on the outside, a turn or button control on the inside, and the inside knob always retracts the latch for egress. That is why it is described as emergency egress. If you want a lock where the outside is always locked and only a key opens it, an entry function is the wrong choice, and something like the Sargent 6G04 storeroom knob lock is the type to look at.
10) Do I need to buy a latch and strike separately with the Baldwin 5237 Bethpage knob?
No. The 5237 Bethpage ships as a complete entry set with everything needed to install it on the door, including the Bethpage rose trim. It uses Baldwin's concealed mounting system, so no screws show on the face of the rose once it is on.
11) I need a knob to match the Bethpage on a closet and a bathroom door. Can I use the 5237 there?
The 5237 is the keyed entry version only, so it is not the part for a closet or a bath. Those openings need passage and privacy functions. Within Baldwin's Estate line the Bethpage design is offered in matching functions, so ask for the Bethpage passage and Bethpage privacy to keep one look across the doors. If you are working outside Baldwin, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob is a privacy function and the Pamex FTF Baron covers both privacy and passage.
12) What passage knob goes with a keyed entry knob on hall and closet doors?
A keyed entry knob like the Baldwin 5237 Bethpage locks; hall and closet doors take a passage latch that never locks. The Dexter C2000 Series passage ball knob is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 passage knob for the same range, and the Arrow MK01 is a Grade 2 passage knob in the MK Series, also 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a heavy traffic corridor the Schlage D10S Orbit knob is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage latch and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors with a fire rating.
13) What decorative keyed entry knob is closest in style to the Baldwin Bethpage?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is an Estate Series keyed entry knob offered in Polished Brass PVD, Vintage Brass, Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and Satin Black. On the decorative side, Deltana offers the 3381 Egg knob entry and the 6171 Round knob entry, both for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the 6901 Portland knob entry for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. All three are entry function keyed knobs in shaped profiles rather than the plain ball knobs used on builder-grade sets.
14) What should I use instead of a keyed entry knob on a classroom or storeroom door?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is an entrance function knob, where the inside knob is always free and the outside knob can be left unlocked. Institutional openings usually call for a different function. The Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Sargent 6G04 is the Grade 2 standard duty storeroom equivalent. For classroom function, the Dexter C2000 Series classroom ball knob is Grade 2, keyed, non-clutching, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
15) I am keying a whole building alike - is there a cheaper keyed entry knob that does the same?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage uses a C-Keyway cylinder and can be ordered keyed alike or keyed different. Where a straightforward keyed entry knob will do across many units, the Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset, the Callan Roland is a Grade 2 entrance knobset in US15 Satin Nickel, and the Callan Canova and Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets. The Delaney Belton, Galway, and Olivia are also Grade 3 entrance knobsets. These are plain entrance sets rather than the Estate Series design, so match the keyway your building already uses before mixing lines.
16) Can I use a keyless combination knob instead of a keyed entry knob?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is keyed with a C-Keyway cylinder, so entry depends on carrying a key. 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 opens on a code rather than a key, which suits shared or turnover doors where keys circulate, and it is a passage function rather than the keyed entrance function of the 5237.
17) Do I need a separate deadbolt, or is there a combo pack with a keyed entry knob?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is a keyed entry knob set with a single cylinder and includes what is needed to install the lock on the door. If the opening also wants a deadbolt from the same order, the Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo function set with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - the same door thickness range the 5237 covers.
18) What finishes does the Baldwin Bethpage 5237 keyed entry knob come in?
Five: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 033 Vintage Brass, 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze, and 190 Satin Black. The satin nickel is nickel plated over solid brass in a PVD process, so it holds up better than a lacquered plating on a front door that gets sun and hands on it all day.
19) Which knob sets come in multi-packs for doing a whole unit at once?
The Baldwin 5237 Bethpage is sold as a single keyed entry set per door, with keyed alike or keyed different available. For interior doors in the same unit, the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is offered as a 6-pack with adjustable backset. That covers hall and closet openings in one order while the keyed entry doors take individual entry sets.
