Baldwin 5485V044PRIV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Baldwin 5485V lever come with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset latch?
Both backsets are offered on the 5485V, 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing bore before you order: 2-3/8 is typical on residential interior doors, 2-3/4 turns up more on heavier or commercial-style prep. Note that Baldwin's Quick Ship program only covers the 2-3/8 inch backset latch.
2) Is the Baldwin Estate 5485V lever handed, or can I use it on both left and right hand doors?
Reversible. One 5485V privacy set covers left and right hand doors, so you can order the same part for every bedroom and bath in a house without tracking swing direction door by door.
3) Can the Baldwin 5485V be keyed, or is it privacy only?
Privacy only, and it cannot be keyed. The 5485V is a non-keyed bed and bath function: it locks from the inside with a turn and releases with an emergency tool from the outside. If you need a key on a lever, look at a keyed entry or entrance function instead, such as the Hager 2525 Grade 2 cylindrical entry lever.
4) Is the Baldwin Estate 5485V lever suitable for a commercial building or apartment turns?
It is a residential-duty product. For multi-family common areas, offices or anything on a commercial spec, go with a graded cylindrical lever instead: the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy cylindrical lock with a fire rating, and the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy option for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. The 5485V is the right call for owner-occupied homes and high-finish interiors, not for a hospital corridor or a school.
5) Will the Baldwin 5485V drop into a door that already has a Kwikset or Schlage lever in it?
In most cases, yes, because it uses the 2-1/8 inch standard bore with a 1 inch edge bore and ships with a Pre-Drilled Door Adaptor for exactly that situation. Check the backset on what you are pulling out, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4, and order the matching latch. The strike may need swapping since a full lip strike comes in the box.
6) Can the Baldwin 5485V privacy lever be keyed for an office or entry door?
No - the 5485V is a non-keyed privacy set, so it has no cylinder and cannot be keyed. For a door that needs a key, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever is a Grade 2 keyed set with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/8 inch backset, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty lever in entry/office function, and the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is Grade 1 with clutching, for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. On the residential side, the Deltana 6201 Manchester and 6431 Linstead are entry levers for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Baldwin 5485V privacy lever from another brand?
The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set is the closest match in function and door range. Both are non-keyed privacy locks for bed and bath doors, and both are residential-grade sets rather than commercial cylindrical locks. The Breton is a Grade 3 set fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, which is the same thickness range the Baldwin 5485V works with. The difference is trim style: the 5485V is an Estate Series lever on an R026 rose with a traditional design, while the Breton carries Kwikset's own round trim.
8) I need a privacy lock for a bathroom in a commercial building - is the Baldwin 5485V the right choice?
The Baldwin Estate 5485V is a residential privacy lever. For a commercial washroom, the Hager 2540 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever is the graded alternative: it is Grade 2 and covers doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If a knob is acceptable instead of a lever, the Arrow MK02-TA privacy cylindrical lock is Grade 1 with a Tudor knob, is fire rated, and fits 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Both are non-keyed privacy functions like the 5485V, so the bed and bath operation is the same.
9) Will the Baldwin 5485V fit a 2 inch thick door?
The Baldwin Estate 5485V is built for 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker leaf, the Hager 2510 passage lever and Hager 2525 entry lever both cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lever reaches 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Dexter C1000 asylum lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Deltana's Manchester, Morant, and Linstead entry levers also run to 2 inch if you want a residential appearance on the thicker door.
10) Is there a fire rated alternative to the Baldwin 5485V privacy lever?
For an opening that has to carry a fire label, look at the Corbin Russwin CL3110, a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever in passage/closet function that is fire rated and covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, or the Falcon K101, a Grade 1 heavy duty non-handed passage lever that is fire rated and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both are passage rather than privacy, so they release from either side. If the labeled door also needs a bed and bath lock, the Arrow MK02-TA is a fire rated Grade 1 privacy lock, though it uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever.
11) Is the Baldwin 5485V a drop-in replacement for a commercial Grade 1 lever on a 1-3/4 inch door?
Only for the door prep, not for the specification. The 5485V uses the 2-1/8 inch standard bore with a 1 inch edge bore and a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the same cross bore most cylindrical levers use, and it is reversible so handing is not an issue. What it will not do is meet a Grade 1 line item, because it is a residential Estate set. If the drawing calls for Grade 1 in a non-keyed lever, the Design Hardware X75 passage lever is Grade 1 for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever.
12) What comes in the box with the Baldwin 5485V privacy lever set?
Everything needed to hang it on the door: lever trim on both sides with the R026 rose, the latch, and a full lip strike. Privacy and passage functions also ship with a Pre-Drilled Door Adaptor, which lets it sit correctly in a door already bored for another maker's lockset.
13) What finishes does the Baldwin Estate 5485V Soho privacy lever come in?
Eight: Satin Brass PVD (044), Polished Nickel PVD (055), Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel (056), Lifetime PVD Graphite Nickel (076), Oil Rubbed Bronze (102), Venetian Bronze (112), Satin Black (190) and Polished Chrome (260). The PVD finishes resist wear and tarnish better than a lacquered one, which matters on a bath door that gets handled daily. Matching an existing house is the usual reason to pick here, since the same Estate finish codes run across Baldwin's knobs, levers and roses.
14) Can I match the Baldwin 5485V privacy lever on the hall and closet doors that do not need to lock?
Yes. The Soho lever with the R026 rose is offered as a complete passage, privacy, full dummy and half dummy set, so you can run the same trim down a hallway and only pay for locking where a bath or bedroom needs it. Dummy versions go on closet or French door leaves that only need a pull.
15) What is a good cheaper alternative to the Baldwin Estate privacy lever for a rental unit?
For rental turns where finish quality matters less than cost per door, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever is a Grade 3 bed and bath set for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the 5485V covers. You give up the Estate Series solid-brass look and the PVD finish range, but the function and door prep are the same.
16) The door does not need to lock - what do I use instead of the Baldwin 5485V?
Order a passage lever instead. The 5485V is a privacy function with a bed and bath lock, so on a hall or closet door the turn button is wasted. Baldwin's Estate program covers the same lever styles in a passage set. Among other brands, the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando, and Tampa passage leversets are all Grade 2 passage function, the Atlanta and Orlando on round trim and the Tampa on square trim. The Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. All latch and release without locking.
17) What is the difference between the Baldwin 5485V privacy lever and a classroom or storeroom lever?
They lock from opposite sides and for opposite reasons. The 5485V is a bed and bath privacy function - it locks from inside the room with a turn button and has no key. A classroom lever such as the Cal-Royal AG03, a Grade 2 set with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset, is locked and unlocked by key from the outside so the occupant cannot secure the room on their own. A storeroom lever such as the Cal-Royal AG05, Grade 2 with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, stays locked outside at all times and is released only by key, while the inside lever always retracts the latch. None of the three substitute for another.
18) I have a high traffic multi-family bathroom - is a residential privacy lever like the Baldwin 5485V durable enough?
The Baldwin Estate 5485V is a residential privacy set. Where the cycle count is high, the graded commercial options are the Hager 2540 privacy lock with the Withnell lever at Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, or the Arrow MK02-TA at Grade 1. If the room is a public toilet rather than a tenant bathroom, the heavy duty institutional functions are a different family again - the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty Grade 2 asylum lock and the Dexter C1000 asylum lever is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
19) What should I use instead of the Baldwin 5485V if I want keyless code entry on the door?
The 5485V is a mechanical privacy set with no cylinder and no code entry. For a coded lever, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is ADA compliant with a passage function and fits 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, and the 2835DC adds a double combination over the same door range. The Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the 1150S version has an adjustable backset. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock if you want batteries rather than mechanical buttons.
20) Can I order a single Baldwin Soho lever instead of a full privacy set?
Yes. Baldwin sells the Soho lever as an individual piece or as a pair, and levers and knobs can be mixed with roses to build a set. That is how you put a lever on the pull side and a knob on the other, or use handle set trim and escutcheon plates on a mortise set elsewhere in the same house.
