Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Handleset with Interior Trim and Emergency Egress Function

The emergency egress version is an interconnected lock: turning the interior lever or knob retracts the deadbolt and the latch at the same time, so someone gets out in one motion without having to throw the thumbturn first. On the outside it's a keyed cylinder; on the inside it's a thumbturn for locking. That single-motion egress is what property managers and code-conscious buyers usually want on a rental or a bedroom-wing exterior door, and it's the difference between this and a plain handleset where the deadbolt and latch operate separately.

Handing matters if you pick a lever. The Curve, Decorative and Federal levers are each ordered left hand or right hand, so you have to know which way the door swings and which side the hinges are on before you order. The knob options (Ellipse, Round, Traditional) are not handed, so if you don't want to deal with handing, order a knob interior.

It runs a Baldwin 5-pin C-keyway cylinder, so it keys into an existing Baldwin C-keyway system. At order time you choose keyed alike or keyed different, and there is a field to key to a specific code if you're matching an existing key. Property managers replacing several front doors typically order keyed alike across the set; a landlord matching one unit to an existing master orders to code.

Both halves are included. You get the exterior handleset with the keyed cylinder and the interior trim with your chosen knob or lever and rose, so it's a complete entry set out of one box. Interior finish matches the exterior by default. If you want a different finish inside than out, there's a split finish field on the order where you write the two finishes you want.

It takes a 1 inch edge bore and a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, the two standard residential backsets, so a door already prepped for a conventional bored lockset and deadbolt is usually a straight swap. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing bore to confirm which backset you need before you order. What does change is the face prep: a handleset uses a long exterior escutcheon, so if you're coming off a plain knob or lever the plate footprint on the outside will differ from the old one.

The Emtek 3002 Memphis, 3004 Hamilton, 3005 Melrose and 3006 Manhattan brass mortise entrance handlesets are all dummy function, as are the Weslock 6695 Belmont with Impresa knob and the Weslock 2815 Hillcrest with New Heaven lever. Dummy handlesets are surface-mounted trim with no latch or cylinder, used on an inactive leaf or a fixed panel. The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire is a keyed single cylinder entry handleset with a key outside and a thumbturn inside, so a dummy is not a substitute for it on an operating entrance.

The Schlage Residential F60 Addison single cylinder keyed entry handleset with Accent lever is the nearest peer in function. Both are single cylinder keyed entry handlesets with an interior lever, and the F60 Addison is a Grade 2 entrance handleset covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire is tested to exceed ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 and takes a Baldwin 5-pin C-Keyway cylinder, and its interior trim is chosen from Curve, Decorative and Federal levers or Ellipse, Round and Traditional knobs, so the Schlage matches the function while the Baldwin carries the wider interior trim range.

The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire emergency egress version uses an interconnected lock so one motion retracts the deadbolt and the door latch at once. Among other brands, the Schlage Residential JI18/19 is an interconnected passage lock with a keyed deadbolt and Torino lever in satin stainless steel, Grade 2, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Note the JI18/19 interior is passage function rather than a keyed entry lockset, so confirm which function the opening calls for before substituting.

The Kwikset 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview single cylinder keyed entry handlesets are Grade 3 entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, with the 687AMD offered in SmartKey and in an SC1 keyway SmartKey version. The Master Lock HDLBA0615/4D is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt handleset in the HDLB Series, and the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington is a single cylinder entry handleset in satin nickel for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. One thing to check on the Kwikset 687 handlesets: they are supplied as exterior only, so the interior trim is a separate line, where the Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire includes both interior and exterior for a complete entrance.

For a 1-3/8 inch door, the Weslock 2810 Hillcrest single cylinder handleset with Hudson knob in the Premiere Essentials line covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Pamex FS7P31 Lexington single cylinder handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Schlage Residential F60 Addison covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire single cylinder handleset starts at 1-3/4 inch, so on a 1-3/8 inch door one of those three is the fit.

It's a residential handleset, tested to exceed ANSI/BHMA Grade 2 security. That's the right level for a single family entrance, a condo unit door, or a short term rental. For a commercial opening with high traffic and code requirements, you want a Grade 1 commercial lockset instead, not a decorative residential handleset.

No, the Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire ships as a matched pair and the emergency egress interconnect depends on both halves working together, so it's installed as a complete set. If you genuinely only need the exterior half, Kwikset sells exterior-only single cylinder handlesets, the 687AMD Amador and 687BW Belleview, both Grade 3 for 1-3/4 inch doors, but those are a different lock system and won't key or interconnect with Baldwin trim.

The Schlage Residential JE285 Barcelona style handleset with Seville lever is a non-keyed entry function Grade 2 handleset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Yale Real Living BYRD256 CBARX pairs a key free touchscreen deadbolt with a Ridgefield passage handleset and trim for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire is a keyed single cylinder handleset with a C-Keyway cylinder, so the non-keyed options are the ones to specify on an opening where nothing is being keyed.

Yes. The Kwikset 815SCEHFL-CP913CNT San Clemente handleset pairs Halifax lever interior trim with a contemporary SmartCode keypad electronic deadbolt, SmartKey, RCAL latch and RCS strike for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Yale Real Living BYRD226CBARX Assure Lock adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to a touchscreen deadbolt with the Ridgefield handleset for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the BYRD410BLERX Assure Lock 2 key-free touchscreen deadbolt with Wi-Fi and Ridgefield handleset covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire is mechanical, keyed on a Baldwin 5-pin C-Keyway with an interior thumbturn.

Deltana offers several solid brass entry handlesets: the 803871B Hanover, the 815871 St. Ann and the 825871 Kingston, all entry function, plus the 810871 Montego for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. These are separate series with their own escutcheon shapes. The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire is a traditional design in the Reserve Series and comes in eight finishes including Polished Brass PVD and Satin Brass PVD, with Elizabeth, Square Bevel and Traditional Arched rose options on the interior trim.

The Baldwin Reserve New Hampshire ships with a Baldwin 5-pin C-Keyway cylinder standard, and it can be ordered keyed alike or keyed different, or keyed to an existing code. Peer handlesets carry their own key systems: the Kwikset 687AMD is offered in a SmartKey version and separately in an SC1 keyway SmartKey version, and the Kwikset 815SCEHFL San Clemente uses SmartKey as well. Because those are different key systems, a mixed-brand opening set is keyed within each brand's system rather than across them, so keep one platform across doors that must share a key.

Eight: Polished Brass PVD (003), Satin Brass PVD (044), Polished Nickel PVD (055), Venetian Bronze (112), Satin Nickel (150), Matte Antique Nickel (152), Satin Black (190) and Polished Chrome (260). The PVD finishes are the ones to specify on a west or south facing entrance where the door takes sun and weather. Rose shape is a separate choice, Elizabeth, Square Bevel or Traditional Arched, so you can match the escutcheon shape to what's already on the other doors.

Styling is traditional, and it's part of Baldwin's Reserve Series, so it coordinates with other Reserve trim. Three rose shapes are offered, Elizabeth, Square Bevel and Traditional Arched, and nine interior knob and lever styles, so you can carry the same finish and rose across a whole house or a run of unit doors while varying which openings get levers and which get knobs.
