Baldwin HDROUTRR003 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Baldwin Reserve dummy knob fit the 2-1/8 inch bore already in my door?
It mounts in standard 2-1/8 inch door prep, which is the same bore used for a passage, privacy or entry set, so it drops onto an existing hole with no re-boring. Edge bore is 1 inch. That is what makes it a clean swap on a closet door where a previous knob was removed.
2) I need a dummy knob on both sides of a double door - what should I order instead of a one-sided knob?
A one-sided non-turning knob covers one face only. For both faces, the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg knobset ships as a dummy pair, as do the Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown and Providence knobsets. Those are sold two knobs per set for openings such as French or double closet doors where each side needs a pull. The Baldwin Reserve round knob with traditional rose is a one-sided dummy, so a pair of doors takes two of them.
3) What is the closest single dummy knob to the Baldwin Reserve round dummy knob from a commercial hardware brand?
The Schlage A170 is a single dummy trim in a Grade 2 cylindrical non-keyed knob, with a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch and a heavy duty rating. Like the Baldwin Reserve round non-turning knob, it mounts one knob on one face with no latch or locking mechanism. The BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 non-keyed cylindrical knob rated medium duty. The Baldwin is a residential product in the Reserve Series with a traditional design and a 1 inch edge bore; the Schlage and BEST units come out of commercial knob lines.
4) The closet door actually needs to latch shut - what takes the place of a non-turning knob?
A non-turning knob has no latch, so it will not hold a door closed. For a hall or closet door that needs a latch, the Dexter C2000 Series passage cylindrical ball knob is a Grade 2 non-keyed unit for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 passage/closet knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a fire rating. The Corbin Russwin CK4310 is a Grade 1 passage/closet knob covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. All three turn and retract a latch; the Baldwin Reserve round knob does not.
5) Is a passage knobset the same thing as a dummy knob?
No. A passage knobset turns and operates a latch; a dummy knob is fixed and non-turning. Products like the Arrow MK01 and RK01 Grade 2 passage cylindrical knob locks, the Pamex FTF Grade 3 Baron passage knob lockset, and the Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob with 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike are all latching passage units, not dummy trim. The Baldwin Reserve round non-turning knob is a dummy with no lock or latch. If you want a fixed knob from a comparable traditional line, the Bravura Biloxi with round trim is a Grade 2 dummy knobset and the Omnia 434/0 egg-shaped knob is a single dummy interior lockset in solid brass.
6) What rose shapes and finishes does the Baldwin Reserve round dummy knob come in?
Three traditional rose shapes, each in eight finishes. The roses are Traditional Arch (TAR), Traditional Round (TRR) and Traditional Square (TSR). Finishes are 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. Every finish is offered on all three roses, so you can match whatever rose is on the active doors nearby.
7) How do I match a dummy knob to the passage and privacy knobs already on the other doors in the unit?
Match the rose shape and finish. Baldwin Reserve round knobs with a traditional rose are built to read the same as an active passage, privacy or entry door in the collection, so once you pick the same rose (arch, round or square) and the same finish code, the closet door looks identical to the ones that turn. For a property manager standardizing a whole floor, the finish code on the existing hardware is the number to write down.
8) Does a dummy knob have handing, and can I mount it left or right?
No handing to specify. Because the Baldwin Reserve dummy knob does not turn and drives no latch, it mounts on either side of the door at whatever height you set. You can use it on a left-hand or right-hand leaf without ordering anything different, which is why it is the simplest piece on a hardware schedule to order.
9) Do I need a privacy or entry knob instead of a non-turning knob on a bedroom or bathroom door?
Yes. A bath or bedroom door that must lock takes a privacy function: the Dexter C2000 Series privacy ball knob is Grade 2 non-keyed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim for the same thickness range, and the Deltana 6112 St. Thomas knob privacy fits 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Baldwin Reserve round knob is a non-turning dummy for interior doors that do not require a locking mechanism, such as closet and hallway doors.
10) I am standardizing a commercial corridor and need a keyed knob that matches the dummy trim on the non-locking doors - what pairs with it?
The Baldwin Reserve round non-turning knob is a residential non-keyed dummy. For the locking doors in the same run, 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 storeroom/closet knob lock with a single cylinder at standard duty. The BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance function single cylinder knob lock. Those are commercial knob lines with their own dummy trim, so a corridor standardized on them will match across functions.
11) Is knob trim sold for an exit device a substitute for a dummy knob?
No. The Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with a knob and rose for 1-3/4 inch doors, the Sargent 78-2875 is an outside knob only in the 7800 Series, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in a storeroom function from the ED-500 Series. Those mount to an exit device or its chassis rather than to a plain bored door. The Baldwin Reserve round non-turning knob mounts in the standard 2-1/8 inch door preparation with a 1 inch edge bore and requires no exit device.
