Baldwin PVARCRAR481 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy leverset fit a standard 2-1/8 inch bored door?
Yes. The Reserve Arch privacy lever mounts to the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore for the latch, and it takes either of the two common backsets, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches. If your existing bedroom or bath door was prepped for a normal residential knob or lever, it drops straight into that prep with no new boring.
2) Is the Baldwin Reserve Arch lever suitable for a commercial building or an apartment turn?
It's a residential-duty set. For single family homes, condos, and finished apartment interiors it's the right class of hardware. For a commercial corridor, school, or anything taking heavy traffic, a Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical lever is the better call, for example the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 vandal resistant lever or the Hager 2540 Grade 2 lever, both built for commercial openings.
3) What is the closest privacy lever alternative to the Baldwin Reserve Arch with Rustic Rose for a bed or bath door?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch is a privacy-function cylindrical leverset built for residential openings with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is also a privacy/bed/bath lever set, rated Grade 3, covering doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Hager 2540 uses a Withnell lever on a Grade 2 cylindrical chassis with a 1-3/8 to 2 inch door thickness range. The Baldwin carries a rustic design in Dark Bronze and White Bronze on either a Rustic Arch Rose or Rustic Square Rose, while the Kwikset and Hager levers are plainer trim styles.
4) Which privacy lock should be used instead of the Baldwin Reserve Arch on a fire-rated opening?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy leverset is a residential cylindrical lock. For a privacy opening where a fire rating is required, the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy/bed/bath cylindrical lock carrying a fire rating, with a Tudor knob rather than a lever and a door thickness range of 1-3/4 to 2 inches. Note that the Arrow is a knob trim, so it will not satisfy a lever requirement.
5) Does the Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy leverset work for an exterior or keyed entry door?
No. The Baldwin Reserve Arch is non-keyed with a privacy function, so it takes no cylinder and no key. For a keyed entry opening, the Deltana 6201 Manchester and Deltana 6431 Linstead are entry-function levers covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 entry lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset. The Callan Bennett is an entrance leverset with a deadbolt combo.
6) Is the Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy leverset suitable for a high-traffic commercial corridor, and what is used there instead?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch is a residential cylindrical leverset. Heavy-duty commercial non-keyed levers are a different class of chassis: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever, fire rated, non-handed, covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors; the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology; and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. All three are passage function, so none of them provides the privacy lock the Baldwin has.
7) What finishes and rose shapes does the Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy lever come in?
Four combinations in all: the Rustic Arch Rose (RAR) and the Rustic Square Rose (RSR), each in 481 Dark Bronze or 492 White Bronze. Round-cornered rustic arch rose reads softer on traditional millwork, the square rose lines up with squared casing and modern trim. Both use the same lever and the same door prep, so the choice is purely how it looks against your casing.
8) Can I get a Baldwin Reserve privacy lever with a different finish or rose on each side of the door?
Yes. Baldwin Reserve allows split builds, and there are order fields for split rose, split finish, and split lever handing. That lets you run one finish or rose shape on the hall side and another inside the room, which is what people do when a bathroom is finished differently to the corridor. Handing can also be split so the levers point the way you want on each face. Enter the combination you want in those fields at order time.
9) What is a cheaper privacy lever alternative to the Baldwin Reserve Arch for a rental unit?
For rental or spec work where a decorative rustic bronze lever isn't the point, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever is a Grade 3 privacy set covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. If the opening is heavier use and you still want privacy function, the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock rated for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. The Baldwin Reserve is the one to keep where the finish is visible to residents or guests.
10) I need matching levers on a closet and a bedroom door. Can I use the Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy set on both?
Not on the closet. The Reserve Arch privacy set locks, which is what you want on a bedroom or bath but not on a closet or hall door where a passage function (always unlocked, no lock button) is correct. Order the privacy version for the rooms that need to lock and a passage lever in the same Reserve finish and rose for the rest, so the whole floor still matches.
11) What lever should be ordered for a hall or closet door that does not need the privacy lock the Baldwin Reserve Arch has?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch is a privacy-function lever, non-keyed, with a locking mechanism for bed and bath doors. Where a door only needs to latch, passage-function levers cover it: the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever with the Withnell design for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. A passage lever has no locking function at all.
12) What matches the Baldwin Reserve Arch lever on a door that does not need any latch, such as a closet or French door slave leaf?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch is a working privacy leverset with a latch and locking mechanism. Where a lever is wanted on a door with no latch to operate, dummy trim is the equivalent: the Emtek Arts & Crafts and Hammered dummy levers ship as pairs, the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is Grade 2 medium duty, and the BEST 9K 1DT single dummy trim is Grade 1 heavy duty. Dummy trim is surface mounted and does not operate a latch.
13) What is the difference between the Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy lever and a keyless pushbutton lever like the Lockey 2835?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch locks from inside the room by privacy function and is non-keyed. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance for 1 3/16 to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 2835DC is the double combination version over the same door range. The Lockey 1150 and 1150S are heavy duty mechanical keypad lever sets for 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors, the 1150S with an adjustable backset. The Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock rated Grade 2. Keypad locks control who may enter; a privacy lever controls only whether the room is occupied.
14) Can a Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy lever be used on a patient room or utility door that needs to be released with a tool from outside?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch is a privacy-function residential leverset. Asylum and institution function is a different lock: the Dexter C1000 Series asylum lock is Grade 1 with an F87 function for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a Grade 2 heavy duty asylum lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway. Those are keyed or cylinder-operated on both sides; the Baldwin is non-keyed.
15) Will a classroom or storeroom lever work in place of a Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy leverset on a bathroom door?
No. The Baldwin Reserve Arch is privacy/bed/bath function, non-keyed, so the occupant locks it from inside and it releases with an emergency tool from the corridor. Classroom and storeroom locks behave differently: the Dexter C1000 classroom lock is Grade 1, keyed and clutching, for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with a Withnell lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Those keep the outside lever locked and require a key, which is the opposite of what a bathroom needs.
16) Is the Baldwin Reserve Arch lever handed, and do I need to specify left or right?
For a standard order you don't have to state handing. Where it matters is a split build: there's a split lever handing field on the order so you can call out which way the levers point on each face of the door. On a normal single-finish set, just pick your finish and rose.
17) For a square rose look on a passage door to sit alongside the Baldwin Reserve Arch Rustic Square Rose, what else is available?
The Baldwin Reserve Arch privacy lever comes with a Rustic Square Rose or a Rustic Arch Rose in Dark Bronze or White Bronze. For a matching-shape passage lever on adjacent doors, the Bravura Tampa is a Grade 2 passage leverset with square trim, while the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando, and Miramar are Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim, the Miramar in US4 satin brass. Trim shape and finish are what differ; all four are passage function with no lock.
