Weslock 00205SN--0020 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Weslock 0205 Salem half dummy knob have a latch, or does it just screw to the door face?
No latch. The Salem half dummy is surface mounted trim only, with no latching mechanism and no bore-through needed for a latch. It mounts to the door face and the knob does not turn. Use it where you want matching knob trim but no mechanical function, such as an inactive leaf of a pair, a closet door, or a false panel.
2) How many knobs come with the Weslock 0205 half dummy, one or a pair?
One. The single dummy ships with one knob and one rosette, so it covers a single face of the door. If you need both faces of an inactive door trimmed, order two, or look at a dummy pair such as the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg dummy pair or the Emtek Georgetown crystal dummy pair, which are sold two knobs per set.
3) What is the commercial-grade equivalent to the Weslock 0205 Salem half dummy knob?
The Schlage A170 single dummy trim is the commercial counterpart. Both are single-sided dummy knob trim with no latch, but the A170 is a Grade 2 heavy duty A Series unit covering doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch thick, while the Weslock 0205 is an ANSI Grade 3 residential dummy in zinc alloy. For apartment interiors and closets the Weslock is the residential fit; for a corridor or an institutional door where a Grade 2 spec is called out, the A170 is the one to quote.
4) The closet door actually latches - is the Weslock 0205 the right knob?
No. The Weslock 0205 Salem is dummy function, surface mounted with no latching mechanism, so it works only as a pull on an inactive leaf or a closet door held by a ball catch or magnet. If the door needs a latch that retracts, go to a passage knob: the Pamex FTF Baron in Grade 3 passage function for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 passage ball knob, or the Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob, which ships with a 6AL latch and round corner strike.
5) I need a dummy knob on both leaves of a double door - what should I order instead of the Weslock 0205?
The Weslock 0205 Salem is a half dummy: one knob and rose, surface mounted on one face only. For trim on both faces you either take two of them or move to a pair-packaged dummy such as the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg dummy or the Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown dummy, both of which ship as a dummy pair. The Emtek units are a different knob style and rose, so match them against the rest of the openings before committing.
6) I need a fire rated knob for a rated opening - will the Weslock 0205 work?
The Weslock 0205 Salem is dummy trim with no latch, so it cannot hold a rated door closed and latched. For a rated opening use a latching knobset carrying a fire rating, such as the Falcon W101 Grade 2 medium duty passage knob with 2-3/4 inch backset or the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset with interchangeable core for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick.
7) Is the Weslock Salem knob handed? I need it on the left side of the door.
Non-handed, so the same part works on a left or right hand door and on either face, interior or exterior. There is no handing to specify when ordering.
8) What finishes does the Weslock 0205 Salem knob come in, and will it match the other Premiere Essentials hardware in the unit?
Three finishes: Satin Nickel, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and Matte Black. All three are part of the Premiere Essentials collection, so the Salem dummy is meant to sit alongside the passage, privacy and entry functions in the same series and finish across a unit or a building.
9) Can I key the Weslock 0205 Salem dummy knob to match the rest of my doors?
No. It is a non-keyed dummy with no cylinder and no keyway, so it cannot be added to a key system. If the opening actually needs to lock, move to a keyed function instead, such as the Cal-Royal BER00 Grade 3 entrance knob with a Kwikset keyway or the Kwikset 400P-CP keyed entry knob.
10) Do I need a special door prep to install the Weslock Salem half dummy?
No cross bore or edge bore is required the way a working lockset needs. Being surface mounted, it fastens to the face of the door with the supplied assembly screws, and the knob comes preassembled on the spindle at the rosette. Instructions are in the box.
11) What other residential dummy knobs compare with the Weslock 0205 Salem?
Two sit close to it. The Bravura Biloxi dummy knobset with round trim is a Grade 2 dummy, and the Cal-Royal BA40 Barrington dummy knob is a cylindrical dummy rated for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Weslock 0205 Salem is ANSI Grade 3 zinc alloy with a round rose and non-handed knob in Oil Rubbed Bronze, Matte Black or Satin Nickel. Pick on rose shape and finish match with the rest of the doors.
12) Can I use the Weslock 0205 on a bedroom or bathroom door?
No. The Weslock 0205 Salem is non-keyed dummy trim with no turning action and no latch, so it cannot secure a door. For a bed or bath opening use a privacy knob such as the Pamex FTF Baron Grade 3 privacy for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal BER20 Grade 3 privacy knob with brass trim, or the Dexter C2000 Grade 2 privacy ball knob.
13) For a commercial dummy trim that matches other Grade 2 hardware in the building, what are my options besides Weslock?
The BEST 6K Series single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed cylindrical knob dummy, and the Schlage A170 single dummy trim is Grade 2 heavy duty. Both carry a Grade 2 rating that lines up with commercial passage and entry hardware in the same series, where the Weslock 0205 Salem is an ANSI Grade 3 residential knob. If the building is already standardized on BEST 6K or Schlage A Series, staying in that family keeps the trim and finish consistent.
14) Does the Weslock 0205 accept a key, and what do I order if the door needs to lock?
The Weslock 0205 Salem is non-keyed with no cylinder and no latch at all. For a keyed opening the closest residential options are the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob, Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Cal-Royal BER00 Grade 3 entrance knob with a Kwikset keyway, or the Pamex FTF Baron Grade 3 entrance/office knob. On the commercial side the Sargent 6G04 Grade 2 storeroom knob and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 entrance/office knob with conventional cylinder cover the same need.
15) Is a knob-only exit device trim the same thing as the Weslock 0205 half dummy?
No, though both are one-sided knob trim. The Sargent 78-2875 outside knob only with B design and the Sargent 28C-KNOB exit device trim with knob and rose are trim components that mount to an exit device and operate against it. The Weslock 0205 Salem is standalone dummy trim that fastens to the door face and does nothing mechanically. Do not substitute one for the other on a door with a panic device.
16) What is the Weslock Salem knob made of?
Solid zinc alloy body with a square spindle. Zinc alloy is the standard cast material for residential grade knob trim. If you want a solid brass dummy instead, the Omnia 434/0 egg knob and the Omnia 442/00 are solid brass single dummy options.
17) What is a decorative upgrade from the Weslock 0205 Salem dummy for a high-end interior?
The Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob with 5058 rose and the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore 2 inch knob passage lock with 5048 rose and 2-3/8 inch backset are the step up in the Estate line, though both are latching passage sets rather than dummy trim. For decorative dummy specifically, the Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Providence dummy pair is the ornamental route. The Weslock 0205 Salem stays in zinc alloy with a plain round rose.
