Baldwin 4293003 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Baldwin 4293 wall bumper keep a push-button lock knob from getting damaged when the door swings open?
That's exactly what the concave rubber on the 4293 is for. The dish shape lets the knob of a button-type lock strike the bumper without engaging the lock mechanism, so the button doesn't get pushed in or the lock stressed every time the door hits the wall. If you have privacy or push-button entry knobs banging a flat wall bumper, this is the profile to switch to.
2) Does the Baldwin 4293 flush bumper come with the screws, and can I mount it into drywall or block?
Fasteners are in the box. Each 4293 is individually poly-bagged with both wood and masonry fasteners in a dispensing carton, so you're covered whether you're hitting a stud or a masonry or block wall. If the strike point lands in hollow drywall with no backing behind it, you'll want a hollow-wall anchor instead, since neither supplied fastener is one.
3) What finishes does the Baldwin Reserve 4293 wall bumper come in, and can I match my existing Baldwin trim?
Eight finishes: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 044 Satin Brass PVD, 112 Venetian Bronze, 140 Polished Nickel, 150 Satin Nickel, 151 Antique Nickel, 190 Satin Black, and 260 Polished Chrome. Those are Baldwin's standard finish numbers, so if your existing knobs or levers are stamped with one of them, order the bumper in the same number and it will match. The two PVD brass finishes are the ones to pick if the bumper sits somewhere it gets handled or cleaned often.
4) Should I use a wall bumper like the Baldwin 4293 or a floor stop?
A wall bumper only works when the door actually reaches the wall at the point where the knob or lever hits. If the door swings past furniture, opens into a corner, or stops short of any wall, you need a floor stop instead. ZenSupply carries the Trimco 1200/1201 cast floor stop in a 3 inch height and the Trimco 1214 floor stop at 1.75 inch for that situation. The advantage of the 4293 on the wall is that nothing sits in the floor path to trip over or catch a mop.
5) Is the Baldwin 4293 bumper heavy duty enough for a commercial corridor or high-traffic building?
Baldwin lists the Reserve 4293 as a residential product, so it's aimed at homes, condos, and light multi-family use rather than a school or hospital corridor. For heavier traffic, look at the Trimco 1209 Series extra heavy duty stops and holders, or the Trimco 1211 Series universal door stops. If you also need the door to hold open, note the 4293 is a bumper only, and the 1209 Series is where the stop-and-holder function lives.
6) How big is the Baldwin 4293 wall bumper face, and will it cover the knob strike point?
The 4293 bumper measures 2.375 inches in diameter. That face is what the knob lands on, so mark where the knob actually contacts the wall and center the bumper there. Baldwin also makes the 4273 in the same concave style if you need a different size on other openings in the building.
7) What BHMA designation does the Baldwin 4293 wall bumper carry?
BHMA designation L22251, which covers both the 4293 and its sibling 4273. The 4293 also carries Government Type 1327 as its federal specification equivalent, which is the 4293 only, not the 4273. If you're writing a spec or matching a submittal that calls out a wall bumper by BHMA number, those are the two references to quote.
8) What is the difference between the Baldwin 4293 and the 4273 wall bumper?
Both are the same concave design, and both share BHMA designation L22251. The functional description is identical: concave rubber so a button-type lock knob strikes the bumper without engaging the lock. Where they part company is the federal spec equivalent, Government Type 1327 applies to the 4293 only. The 4293 is the 2.375 inch diameter version.
9) I need to buy wall bumpers for a whole building of doors, are these packed for that?
Yes, and the packaging is built for it. The 4293 ships individually poly-bagged in a dispensing type carton, so a maintenance tech can pull one bumper with its wood and masonry fasteners per door without breaking down a bulk box. Order the same finish number across the building and every unit matches.
