Baldwin Reserve Contemporary Single Cylinder Keyed Entry Knob Set with Contemporary Rose

Yes. Keying is an order option, keyed alike or keyed different, and you can supply a key code if you are matching an existing Baldwin cylinder. All Reserve entry knobs and levers use the C-Keyway pin and tumbler cylinder only, so anything you key together has to be on that keyway.

It is a residential product. For a leasing office, school, or anything with real traffic and a code inspector, go to a graded commercial cylindrical knob instead: the BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance knob lock, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance/office cylindrical knob covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Use the Baldwin on houses, condos, and high-end multifamily unit doors where the finish matters more than a grade rating.

On a door already bored for a cylindrical knob it swaps straight across, since it uses the same 2-1/8 inch cross bore, a 1 inch edge bore, and either standard backset. The rose diameter is what to check: the five inch CFR rose covers a bigger footprint than the round CRR or square CSR, which is useful when the old trim left a mark or a hole outside the new rose line.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary keyed entry knob is a residential entry set with a single cylinder. For a commercial opening that has to meet Grade 1, the BEST 8K Series entrance function knob lock is a heavy duty Grade 1 single cylinder entrance lock, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical knob lock with a conventional cylinder that fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. Both keep the keyed outside knob and the entrance function while carrying the higher ANSI grade.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary keyed entry knob is furnished with a C-Keyway pin and tumbler cylinder only. If the building is keyed on a Kwikset keyway, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. That lets the new opening key into the existing Kwikset system rather than starting a second key system.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set covered here is the keyed entry function, so it is the wrong function for a hall or closet door. For a non-locking opening, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 passage/closet cylindrical knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, the Schlage D10S is a Grade 1 passage latch with an Orbit knob, and the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 passage knob lockset for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. All three latch the door without a cylinder.

No. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary set is a keyed entry knob with a single cylinder that latches and locks the door. The Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg dummy is sold as a pair with no latch, the Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown and Providence knobs are likewise dummy pairs, and the Omnia 434/0 and Omnia 442/00 are single dummy knobs. A dummy knob is surface mounted trim that does not operate a latch, so it suits an inactive leaf or a false door, not a secured entrance.

Entry function unlocks the outside knob when the inside button or turn is released, which is not what a storeroom wants. For an outside knob that stays locked and is retracted by key only, the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder.

Single cylinder means one keyed side. The exterior knob takes the key; the interior knob has a turn button or thumbturn to lock it, no key needed from inside. That is the normal setup for a front or side entry door, and it is the only keyed configuration offered on the Reserve Contemporary knob.

Three Contemporary rose shapes: the round CRR, the square CSR, and the five inch CFR, which is the long rectangular plate if you want to cover an older escutcheon footprint. Each rose comes in all six finishes: 044 Satin Brass PVD, 055 Polished Nickel PVD, 112 Venetian Bronze, 150 Satin Nickel, 190 Satin Black, and 260 Polished Chrome.

Yes. Split finish and split rose are both order options on the Reserve Contemporary knob set, so you can run polished chrome on the interior to match the rest of the house and a darker exterior finish, or pair a square rose outside with a round one inside. Note what you want in the split finish or split rose field when ordering.

For a rental turn or a back door where the look does not matter, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is a Grade 3 entrance knob for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors and ships with an adjustable latch and round corner strike. Cal-Royal BER00 is another entrance/office knob for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, on a Kwikset keyway. The Baldwin is the choice when the door is seen and the finish has to match the rest of the Reserve trim.

Keyed entry is for exterior doors, side doors, and anything you want to lock behind you with a key. For a hall or closet door, buy passage, which latches but never locks. For a bath or bedroom, buy privacy, which locks from inside with an emergency release. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob shown here is the keyed entry function only; the same 2-1/8 inch prep takes any of the three, so the door does not change.

Deltana offers solid keyed entry knobs in traditional shapes: the Deltana 6171 Round Knob and the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob are both entry function and fit doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, and the Deltana 6901 Portland Knob is entry function for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary set is the contemporary-design knob and comes with a five inch, round, or square contemporary rose, so the choice is largely about the trim shape and the thickness range you need.

A keyed entry knob is not the right function for a bath or bedroom, which needs a privacy set that locks from inside without a key. The Dexter C2000 Series privacy ball knob is a Grade 2 non-keyed privacy lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob is Grade 3 over the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.

No. The Kwikset 200P Polo is a passage knob for interior hall and closet doors, supplied with a 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike, with no cylinder. The keyed version in the same Polo family is the Kwikset 400P, which is entrance function. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary set is a single cylinder keyed entry knob, so the 200P will not secure the door.

Two knob locks in the peer set state a fire rating: the Falcon W101, a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob with passage/closet latch function and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Falcon X101, a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset with an interchangeable core for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick. Both are passage function, so they hold the rated door latched without a cylinder rather than keying it.

The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes, fitting doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set is ordered as a single keyed entry opening with the backset called out as 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch and the rose style chosen per door, which is the route to take when the finishes and rose shapes have to match across a specific set of doors.

The Callan Canova and Callan Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets, and Delaney offers the Belton, Galway, and Olivia as Grade 3 entrance knobsets; Callan also lists the Edgewood as a Grade 2 entrance knobset. All are entrance function like the Baldwin Reserve Contemporary keyed entry knob. The Baldwin set is the contemporary-design Reserve Series knob, fits the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, and is offered in six finishes across three contemporary rose shapes.
