Baldwin Reserve PVCONC - Contemporary Privacy Knob Set with Contemporary Rose

It drops into standard prep: a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, and the latch adjusts for either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. Those are the two backsets found on virtually every residential door, so replacing an existing tubular knob generally needs no new boring.

Non-keyed. It's a privacy function, so it locks from inside the room with a turn or push button and has an emergency release on the outside rather than a cylinder. That makes it right for bedrooms and bathrooms and wrong for any door you need to key into a house or master key system.

It's a residential-duty tubular lockset, and it carries no ANSI grade. For a rental unit bath or a single-family remodel it's fine. For a commercial opening or a high-traffic multi-family corridor, step to a graded cylindrical privacy lock: the Dexter C2000 privacy knob is Grade 2 and fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal BER20 privacy knob is Grade 3 over the same thickness range.

Two other privacy-function knob sets cover the same bed and bath opening. The Dexter C2000 Series privacy cylindrical ball knob lock is a Grade 2 non-clutching, non-keyed set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set is a non-keyed privacy lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch with a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset. The Dexter is a ball knob and the Deltana is a St. Thomas pattern, so the trim look differs from the contemporary round, five inch, or square rose.

The Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in privacy function is a Grade 3 set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Cal-Royal BER20 privacy knob lock is Grade 3 with brass trim for the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thickness range. Both are non-keyed bed and bath sets, the same function as the Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob. The Baldwin is a Reserve Series residential set offered in six finishes across contemporary round, five inch, and square roses; the Pamex and Cal-Royal are sold as single-style Grade 3 locksets.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary privacy knob set is a residential Reserve Series lock. For heavy duty commercial openings, the Schlage D10S passage latch is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical non-keyed knob lock with an orbit knob, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset with an interchangeable core, fire rated, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Both of those are passage function rather than privacy, so they latch without locking; the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset if the opening needs to be secured.

Privacy is the function on the Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set and it is non-keyed. For a keyed opening, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch and ships with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike, the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance and office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway for the same thickness range, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is an entrance and office cylindrical lock with a conventional cylinder and a Global knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary privacy knob set covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch as standard, with a thick door service part kit for 2 inch to 2-1/2 inch. Peers that already list a 2 inch capacity are the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 non-keyed passage and closet lock at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset at 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. Of those, only the Deltana 6112 is a privacy function.

Projection is 2.156 inches off the face and the knob measures 2.344 inches across. Worth checking where a door swings back against a wall or against a vanity or cabinet run in a tight bath, since that projection sets how much clearance the knob needs behind the open door.

Three roses: contemporary round, contemporary square, and a contemporary five inch rose. Each pairs with six finishes, 044 satin brass PVD, 055 polished nickel PVD, 112 venetian bronze, 150 satin nickel, 190 satin black, and 260 polished chrome. The five inch rose is the one to pick if you're covering the scars from an older long-plate lockset; the round and square roses cover only the bore area.

Yes. Split finish and split rose are both order options, so you can run one finish on the room side and another on the hall side, or a different rose shape each way. Useful where a bathroom finish scheme doesn't match the corridor. Give the two finishes or rose codes when you order; leaving those fields blank builds the set matched on both sides.

No, the privacy version always has a lock. For a non-locking opening you want a passage or dummy knob in the same Reserve contemporary style so the roses and finish match across the house. If you're mixing brands instead, the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas privacy knob covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors and the Pamex FTF Baron line runs privacy, passage and entrance in one look for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set is a privacy lock, so it will lock from the inside. For a hall or closet that only needs to latch, the Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in passage function is a Grade 3 set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Dexter C2000 Series passage ball knob is Grade 2 for the same thickness range, and the Corbin Russwin CK4410 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage and closet cylindrical lock with a Global knob, also 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.

No. Dummy trim has no latch and no locking mechanism, so it will not close or secure a bath door the way the Baldwin Reserve Contemporary privacy knob set does. The Schlage A170 single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch, the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty knob, and the Emtek Arts and Crafts hammered egg knobset is sold as a dummy pair. Those are for a fixed pull on an inactive leaf or a closet door, not a privacy opening.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary privacy knob set is built for a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset with a 1 inch edge bore. The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob combo pack ships with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Kwikset 200P-CP Polo passage knob comes with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. Fixed-backset peers include the Falcon W101 Grade 2 passage knob lock at 2-3/4 inch and the Sargent 8XG04 at 2-3/4 inch.

Not for a bed or bath opening. The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch, so it controls access by code from the outside. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set is a non-keyed privacy lock that the occupant turns from the inside for a bedroom or bathroom. They solve different problems even though both mount in a standard bored prep.

The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set is a non-keyed privacy lock, which is not a classroom or storeroom function. The Dexter C2000 Series classroom cylindrical ball knob lock is Grade 2, keyed and non-clutching, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For storeroom, the Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom and closet knob lock with a single cylinder and the Sargent 8XG04 is the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent with a 2-3/4 inch backset.

The Reserve contemporary is a nickel-plated brass knob on a plain round, square or five inch rose, styled flat and modern. The traditional alternative is a shaped solid brass knob on a small round rose, like the Omnia 434/PA egg-shaped passage latchset or the Emtek Classic Brass crystal Georgetown knob. Same bore, very different look, so the choice is about the room, not about fit.

The Sure-Loc Modern Bergen round knob is a modern round knob, the Deltana 6171 Round Knob is an entry function set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Bravura Albany with round trim is a Grade 2 passage knobset. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set is a contemporary design with a 2.344 inch knob diameter and 2.156 inch projection, offered with a round, five inch, or square rose. Of those peers only the Deltana 6171 and Bravura Albany carry a stated function, and neither is privacy.

No. The Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with a knob and rose for 1-3/4 inch doors and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in storeroom function for the ED-500 Series. Both mount to an exit device rather than into a bored door prep. The Baldwin Reserve Contemporary knob set is a tubular cylindrical privacy lock that installs into a 2-1/8 inch bore with a 1 inch edge bore.
