Baldwin Estate 8232 Traditional 2-1/8" Double Cylinder Deadbolt

Either one. The 8232's latch is adjustable between a 2-3/8 inch and a 2-3/4 inch backset, so it drops into the standard residential bore whichever way the existing hole was drilled. Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore before you install and set the latch to match.

Yes, and that is the point of it. The 8232 is a double cylinder deadbolt, keyed on both faces, so there is no thumbturn inside. That is what people specify next to a glass sidelite or a glazed door, where someone could break the glass and reach a turn. It also means anyone inside needs a key to get out through that door, which many jurisdictions restrict on a required exit. If you want a turn on the interior, order a single cylinder deadbolt instead.

The 8232 uses Baldwin's C keyway, so it keys with other C-keyway Baldwin cylinders. When ordering you choose Keyed Different or Keyed Alike, and there is an optional key code field if you need it cut to a code you already have running on the house. Keyed Alike is how you get several 8232s on the same key across a front door, a back door and a side entry.

It is a residential product. The Estate 8232 is built for entry doors on houses and high-end residential openings, and the trim and finishes are chosen for that. For a commercial opening, a leasing office, or a corridor door in a multi-family building, go to a graded commercial deadbolt instead: the Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 double cylinder deadbolt, and the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors with a Schlage C keyway.

Probably not. The 8232 is a residential entrance deadbolt and it is keyed on both sides, which is the wrong function for a unit door a tenant has to exit through. For a fleet of doors you want a graded, single cylinder deadbolt with a thumbturn inside: the Dexter DB2000 Series Grade 2 single cylinder covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder on a 2-3/8 inch backset. Save the 8232 for the one high-visibility entry where the finish matters.

The Baldwin Estate 8232 is a double cylinder deadbolt built for residential use. Where a commercial-graded double cylinder bolt is wanted instead, the Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 double cylinder deadbolt rated extra heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter DB1000 Series double cylinder is Grade 1 for doors 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch. Both keep the key-both-sides function of the 8232.

The Baldwin Estate 8232 is cut to the C keyway. The Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway, fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, and is fire rated, so it keys into the same C-keyway system.

The Estate 8232 is keyed on both sides. For a decorative cast solid brass or bronze deadbolt that takes a key outside and a thumbturn inside, the Emtek #11 Tuscany lost wax cast bronze deadbolt is a cylinder x thumbturn. Cal-Royal LSD is another cylinder x thumbturn option, Grade 3, with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch.

The Estate 8232 is a residential traditional deadbolt. When the opening carries a fire rating, use a bolt that lists one: the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw and a fire rating for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, and the Cal-Royal CRB800 is a heavy duty single cylinder deadbolt with a UL 3-hour fire rated latch.

The 8232 is a bored deadbolt with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. Several deadbolts in the same family need a different prep entirely: the Emtek 2050 and 2051 are European mortise deadbolts with an integrated roller latch, the Dormakaba D900 is a small case mortise deadbolt, and the Codelocks CL200 is a surface mounted deadbolt with key override. None of these use a standard bored deadbolt prep.

The Estate 8232 is an entrance function residential deadbolt. Institutional openings usually call for a classroom function bolt: the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with adjustable backset, the Falcon D211 is the Grade 2 medium duty classroom equivalent, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch.

The 8232 is a residential bored deadbolt. Where the door is thicker than a standard 1-3/4 inch leaf, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covers 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inch and the Deltana 7312KA2 double cylinder deadbolt covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch, keeping key-both-sides operation like the 8232.

Not handed. The 8232 is reversible, so the same unit works on a left or right hand door with no separate part to order. Handing only comes into play on the passage or entry set you pair with it.

The 2-1/8 inch figure is the round trim diameter, and traditional is the design style, so the 8232 reads as a plain round rose that sits with colonial and traditional entry trim. If the door package is contemporary, the shape is what changes: the Bravura 310SC Elite is a contemporary square deadbolt and the 310RC Elite is a contemporary round, both Grade 2 single cylinder. Emtek's 8323 Modern Disc is a brass double cylinder if you want the modern look and still need keyed both sides.

The strike is included. The 8232 ships with a reinforcing strike made of high-grade steel, and the bolt case itself is formed of heavy gauge steel. That reinforcing strike is the part that matters on an entry door, since it is what carries the load into the jamb, so plan on long screws into the framing behind it rather than the short ones that came with the door.

Eight finishes, all Estate Series so they line up with Baldwin Estate levers and handlesets: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 031 Non-Lacquered Brass, 033 Vintage Brass, 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze, 190 Satin Black, 260 Polished Chrome, and 402 Distressed Oil Rubbed Bronze. Note that 031 Non-Lacquered Brass is a living finish, it will patina over time, while the PVD finishes hold their color.

Several double cylinder options sit alongside the Baldwin 8232. The Callan 210S is a Grade 3 double cylinder, the Delaney LU Series is a Grade 2 double cylinder in a stainless steel US32D finish, and the Dexter DB1000 Series is a Grade 1 double cylinder covering 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors. The Hager 3214 comes with a Schlage C keyway if you are keying into an existing Schlage system rather than Baldwin's C keyway.

Standard bored prep. The 8232 is a tubular deadbolt that installs through a cross bore in the door face with the latch through the edge bore, the same prep an existing deadbolt already occupies, and the backset adjusts to 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches to suit that bore. If you actually need a mortise deadbolt, that is a different pocket in the door edge entirely, and the Emtek 2050 European mortise deadbolt with integrated roller latch is that style.

For a plainer double cylinder bolt, the Callan Model 210S is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt and the Delaney LU Series is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt in a stainless steel US32D finish. Both key from both sides like the 8232 without the Estate Series traditional trim.

The Estate 8232 has an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Brinks Raleigh Series round deadbolt and the Brinks Mendocino Series square deadbolt both use a 4-way adjustable backset, and the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with adjustable backset for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Each covers more than one bore location out of the box, though all three are cylinder x thumbturn rather than keyed both sides.

No. The Estate 8232 is keyed on both sides. For an opening that locks only from inside, the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 non-keyed exit deadlock with a blank plate outside and thumbturn inside for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, and the Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt for doors that are only bored on one face.

The Estate 8232 uses a C keyway cylinder and is ordered keyed different or keyed alike. Where a facility runs interchangeable cores instead, the Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep supplied less core for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch, the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single deadbolt with interchangeable core prep and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Delaney LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome US26D.

The 8232 is a mechanical key-operated deadbolt with no code or electronic option. For keyless, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, the Codelocks CL2200 is an electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with electronic lock override for multifamily and hospitality.
