Baldwin HDCRYTRR003 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Baldwin Reserve Crystal dummy knob come with a latch, or is it just the knob and rose?
No latch. The Reserve Crystal dummy is non-turning trim only: one knob, one rose, and the mounting hardware. It mounts to the door face and does not go into a bored latch or a strike. If the door needs to stay shut, you want a passage set instead, something like the Corbin Russwin CK4310 passage knob or the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob, both of which include a working latch.
2) Will a Baldwin Reserve dummy knob cover the existing 2-1/8 inch bore hole in my door?
It will. The Reserve Crystal dummy is built to the same 2-1/8 inch standard door prep as an active passage, privacy or entry knob, so it drops onto a door that has already been bored without patching anything. The edge bore is 1 inch. Handy on a closet or a pantry door where a lockset was pulled out and you just want the look back.
3) What do I have to specify when ordering a Baldwin Reserve Crystal dummy knob?
Three choices. Rose shape, from Traditional Arch (TAR), Traditional Round (TRR) or Traditional Square (TSR). Finish, from eight: 003 Polished Brass PVD, 044 Satin Brass PVD, 055 Polished Nickel PVD, 112 Venetian Bronze, 150 Satin Nickel, 152 Matte Antique Nickel, 190 Satin Black and 260 Polished Chrome. And door thickness, either standard or the thick door kit. Every finish is offered on all three rose shapes.
4) Is a Baldwin Reserve Crystal knob suitable for an office corridor or apartment turnover work?
Baldwin classes the Reserve Crystal knob as residential hardware, and it carries no ANSI grade rating. For a house, a condo interior or a high-end multi-family unit it is right at home on closet and hall doors. For commercial corridor traffic or an institutional spec calling for a graded product, go to something like the Schlage A170 single dummy trim, a Grade 2 heavy duty dummy, or the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, also Grade 2.
5) I need a crystal knob for a double door where both sides need a knob - what should I order instead?
A one-sided dummy covers a single face only. For an opening that needs a knob on both faces, Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Knobsets are sold as dummy pairs in the Georgetown and Providence knob designs, and the Emtek Porcelain knobs ship as two knobs per set with a threaded rod. The Baldwin Reserve Crystal dummy supplies one knob, one rose, and mounting hardware for a single side.
6) What is the closest equivalent to a Baldwin Reserve Crystal single dummy knob from a commercial brand?
For a single-sided dummy knob in a commercial line, the Schlage A170 is a single dummy trim, Grade 2 cylindrical non-keyed knob lock in the A Series, and the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed cylindrical knob in a medium duty rating. Both are dummy function like the Baldwin Reserve Crystal knob, which is a non-keyed dummy with a traditional design intended for residential use. The difference is the trim styling: the Baldwin uses a crystal knob on a Traditional Arch, Traditional Round, or Traditional Square rose, while the Schlage and BEST units carry commercial knob designs.
7) The closet door actually needs to latch - what knob do I use in place of a dummy?
A dummy knob does not operate a latch, so an opening that must stay shut needs a passage set. Options include the Corbin Russwin CK4310, a Grade 1 passage/closet cylindrical lock with a Global knob that fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Schlage D10S Grade 1 heavy duty passage latch with an Orbit knob, and the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage ball knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Baldwin Reserve Crystal dummy matches the look of an active passage door without the latch function.
8) Can I use a Baldwin Reserve Crystal dummy knob on a commercial fire-rated opening?
No. It is a residential non-keyed dummy with no latch. A fire-rated opening needs a latching set with a fire rating, such as the Falcon X101, a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset with an interchangeable core, a fire rating, and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, or the Falcon W101 Grade 2 passage/closet knob lock, which is also fire rated and medium duty.
9) Can I match the rose on a Baldwin Reserve dummy to the square backplates already on my other doors?
Yes, the rose shape is a choice at order time: Traditional Arch, Traditional Round or Traditional Square. Pick the square rose (TSR) to line up with square trim elsewhere in the house, and hold the same finish code across the openings, for example 150 Satin Nickel or 112 Venetian Bronze, so the closet and hall doors read as one set with the active locksets.
10) Can the Baldwin Reserve Crystal dummy knob be keyed or keyed alike with the rest of my hardware?
No. It is non-keyed with no cylinder and no keyway, because the knob does not turn and there is nothing to lock. If you need a keyed knob in the same opening group, that has to be a separate keyed lockset, for example the Kwikset 400P Polo entry knob or the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office knob with a Kwikset keyway if you are keying to a Kwikset system.
11) What is the difference between a single dummy knob and a passage knob for a closet door?
A dummy knob is a pull. Nothing turns, no latch enters the frame, so the door needs a ball catch, roller catch or magnet to stay closed. It suits French doors, double closet doors, and pantry doors that a catch already holds. A passage knob turns and throws a latch that holds the door shut on its own, which is what you want on a hall or bedroom door with no catch. The Reserve Crystal knob here is the dummy version; passage equivalents in this style of hardware include the Omnia 434/PA egg knob latchset.
12) Is a passage knobset the same thing as a dummy knob?
No. A passage set turns and retracts a latch; a dummy knob does not turn and has no latch. The Arrow MK01 and RK01 are Grade 2 non-keyed passage knob locks, the Pamex FTF Baron is a Grade 3 passage knob lockset, and the Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 passage/closet knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset - all latching sets. The Baldwin Reserve Crystal knob is a non-turning dummy that mounts into the 2-1/8 inch standard door prep without a lock or latch.
13) The bathroom door needs to lock - what knob replaces a dummy there?
A dummy has no locking mechanism, so a bath or bedroom door needs a privacy set. The Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob is Grade 2 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Baldwin Reserve Crystal knob is non-keyed dummy function for doors that need no lock.
14) What is a lower-cost dummy knob than a Baldwin Reserve Crystal for a rental turnover?
For plainer dummy trim on interior doors, the Cal-Royal BA40 in the Barrington BA Series is a dummy knob cylindrical lock for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Bravura Biloxi with round trim is a Grade 2 dummy knobset. The Baldwin Reserve Crystal dummy is a residential traditional-design crystal knob offered on three rose shapes and eight finishes including Satin Nickel and Venetian Bronze, which is the choice when the closet or hallway door has to match decorative hardware elsewhere in the unit.
15) Is knob trim for an exit device or a mortise lock a substitute for a dummy knob?
No. The Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only in the 7800 Series, the Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with knob and rose in classroom function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in storeroom function - all of those are trim that operates a separate device or lock body. The Baldwin Reserve Crystal knob is a standalone non-turning dummy that mounts to the door face into the 2-1/8 inch standard prep with its own rose and mounting hardware.
