Baldwin BAL-0195.055 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the bolt center-to-center spacing on the Baldwin Reserve 0195 ring door knocker?
The mounting bolts are 3.75 inches (95mm) center to center on the 0195 ring knocker, with the overall plate measuring 4.25 x 5.5 inches (108 x 140mm). If you are replacing an older knocker and want to reuse the existing through-holes, that 3.75 inch spacing is the number to measure against the door before you drill anything new.
2) Does the Baldwin 0195 door knocker come with mounting hardware, or do I need to buy fasteners separately?
Fasteners are in the box. The 0195 ships one per box, poly-bagged, with the fasteners sized for a 1.75 inch thick door. It is a through-bolted knocker, so the bolts pass through the door and the spacing is 3.75 inches center to center. Nothing else is required to hang it on a standard 1-3/4 inch door.
3) Will the Baldwin Reserve 0195 knocker work on a door thicker or thinner than 1-3/4 inch?
The supplied fasteners are cut for a 1.75 inch door. On a thinner door, say a 1-3/8 inch panel, the bolts will run long and need shortening; on anything thicker than 1.75 inches they will not reach. Measure the door at the point where the knocker lands before ordering, since the fastener length is what decides this, not the knocker plate itself.
4) What finishes does the Baldwin Reserve 0195 ring knocker come in?
Seven finishes: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 044 Satin Brass PVD, 055 Polished Nickel PVD, 056 Lifetime PVD Satin Nickel, 112 Venetian Bronze, 190 Satin Black, and 260 Polished Chrome. Four of those are PVD, which is the coating to pick for a front entry that takes direct weather and sun, since it holds its color far better than a plain lacquered brass. Order the same finish code across the entry set and the knocker will match the handleset and deadbolt.
5) Is the Baldwin 0195 knocker rated for commercial entrances or apartment building doors?
Baldwin classifies the Reserve 0195 as residential hardware. For a house, townhome, or a unit door in a low-traffic multi-family setting it is the right kind of part. For a high-traffic commercial or institutional entrance, spec hardware carrying a commercial grade instead, because a residential-classified knocker is not built for that duty cycle.
6) Can I use a door knocker instead of a doorbell, and will the 0195 fit a door that already has a viewer?
A ring knocker is a straight substitute for a doorbell, with no wiring, no transformer, and no power to lose. Fit is the thing to check: the 0195 plate covers 4.25 x 5.5 inches, so lay that footprint out on the door at your chosen height and confirm it clears the viewer, any glass lite, and the stile edges. On a narrow-stile door with a large glass panel, the 5.5 inch dimension is usually what runs out of room first.
7) What is the difference between the Baldwin Reserve 0195 and a plain knocker plate?
The 0195 is a ring knocker: a hinged ring that swings against a strike on the mounting plate, model 195 in Baldwin's Reserve line. It is the whole assembly, not just a backplate, and it through-bolts to the door rather than surface-screwing. Baldwin builds it in solid brass, which is why the PVD finishes plate over it well.
