Baldwin Estate 8242 Contemporary 2-1/8" Double Cylinder Deadbolt

Both. The Estate 8242 deadbolt ships with an adjustable backset that sets to either 2-3/8 inches or 2-3/4 inches, which are the two standard bored-door backsets, so it drops into either existing prep without redrilling. The reinforcing strike measures 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inches.

The 8242 is a double cylinder deadbolt, meaning a key cylinder inside and out with no thumbturn. That is the choice for doors with glass beside or within them, since a broken pane does not give access to a turn piece. The trade-off is egress: you need a key on the inside to get out, which many jurisdictions restrict on a required exit door. If you want a thumbturn inside, order a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt instead.

The 8242 uses the C keyway, so it can be keyed into an existing C-keyway system. Keying is specified on the order: choose keyed different or keyed alike, and enter a key code if you are matching an existing bitting across a building.

It is a residential deadbolt. For a commercial or institutional door where a Grade 1 or Grade 2 deadbolt is specified, look at the Design Hardware D1 Series Grade 1 double cylinder deadbolt or the Dexter DB1000 Grade 1 double cylinder, which fits 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors.

The Baldwin Estate 8242 is a double cylinder deadbolt built for residential use, keyed both sides with a C-keyway and an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. Where an ANSI/BHMA grade has to be on the submittal, the Design Hardware D1 Series double cylinder deadbolt is Grade 1 and extra heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter DB1000 double cylinder is Grade 1 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. The Hager 3214 double cylinder deadbolt is Grade 2, fire rated, and comes in a Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Estate 8242 is keyed on both sides, so there is no inside thumbturn for free egress. For a single cylinder with a thumbturn inside, the Dexter DB2000 single cylinder is Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal LSD is Grade 3 with an ADA ergonomic thumbturn, and the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder with a 1 inch throw. For a non-keyed inside-only deadlock, the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock with a blank plate outside and thumbturn inside.

No. The Estate 8242 is a bored deadbolt with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1-1/8 inch by 2-3/4 inch strike, so it needs a standard bored cross-bore and edge prep. For mortise-prepped doors, the Dormakaba D900 small case mortise deadbolt is cylinder x thumbturn with SC keyways, the Emtek 2050 and 2051 are European mortise deadbolts with an integrated roller latch in square and round trim, and the Codelocks CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt.

The Estate 8242 uses a Baldwin C-keyway and can be ordered keyed alike or keyed different. For a small format interchangeable core program, the Arrow E61 26D IC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep less core for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single deadbolt with interchangeable core prep and 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Delaney LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome US26D.

No handing to specify. The 8242 is reversible and installs on either hand of door.

A reinforcing strike of high-grade steel is part of the deadbolt, sized 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inches. The bolt case itself is heavy gauge steel. If your frame already has a 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch strike mortise, the supplied strike drops straight in.

The 8242 is key-both-sides only, so it will not satisfy a thumbturn requirement. Pick a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt instead: the Dexter DB1000 single cylinder is Grade 1 and covers 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, the Hager 3115 is Grade 2 on a Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal LSD offers an ADA ergonomic thumbturn for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.

Beyond the Estate 8242, the double cylinder options include the Callan 210S at Grade 3, the Delaney LU Series at Grade 2 in stainless steel US32D, the Deltana 7312KA2 at Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder at Grade 2, and the Emtek 8323 Modern Disc double cylinder in brass. The 8242 carries an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and a C-keyway.

The Estate 8242 is a contemporary-design deadbolt in the Baldwin Estate Series, offered in 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze and 190 Satin Black. For a simpler contemporary trim, the Bravura 310RC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary round deadbolt and the 310SC Elite is the contemporary square version, both cylinder x thumbturn. The Brinks Mendocino Series is a contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset, and the Callan 200S is a Grade 3 single cylinder with square trim.

The Estate 8242 is a keyed mechanical deadbolt using a C-keyway on both sides. For code or credential entry, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, the Codelocks CL200 is a surface deadbolt with mechanical code entry and key override, the CL2200 is an electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel, and the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override.

Neither is a lock. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike with a straight lip for latchbolt and deadbolt functions, and the BEST 8T is the tubular deadbolt tube component of the T Series. The Estate 8242 is a complete double cylinder deadbolt with its own reinforcing strike sized 1-1/8 inch by 2-3/4 inch. If you need a full deadbolt, look at a Dexter DB2000 double cylinder at Grade 2 instead.

The Estate 8242 is a standalone deadbolt with no latch or lever function. When the opening needs both latching and deadbolting, the Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt. If the requirement is a deadlock with a cylinder outside and blank inside, the Corbin Russwin DL3211 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock for 1-3/4 inch doors.

Two: 102 Oil Rubbed Bronze and 190 Satin Black. Both are dark finishes, so if you are matching existing Estate Series trim on other openings in the building, those are the two options to pair against.
