Weslock 03705IN--0020 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Weslock 3705 half dummy knob actually latch, or is it just a pull?
No latch at all. The 3705 half dummy is surface mounted with no latching mechanism, so it gives you a knob to pull on and nothing more. It is what you put on a fixed inactive leaf, a false closet front, or a pantry door held shut by a ball catch or roller catch. If the door needs to stay closed on its own, you need a passage set instead, which carries a real latchbolt.
2) Is the Weslock Impressa dummy knob handed, and can I mount it on either side of the door?
It can go on the interior or exterior face of the door, but handing still needs checking before you order, since the description flags handing requirements on the single dummy. Handing on a dummy is about which way the trim reads on the door face, not about latch operation. If you want a dummy that is explicitly sold handed so there is no ambiguity, Baldwin's Estate 5103 half dummy is offered as separate left hand and right hand parts.
3) Do I have to bore the door for a Weslock 3705 dummy knob?
No cross bore or edge bore is needed. Because the 3705 is surface mounted with no latch, it fastens to the door face and does not pass through it. That makes it the fix when you have a slab with no prep, or when you do not want to cut an inactive leaf. Weslock also builds the knobs to come off during install so the finish does not get scratched.
4) Will a Weslock Elegance dummy knob match my other Weslock doors?
The 3705 is part of the Elegance collection in the Woodward style, with the Impressa knob design, so it lines up with other Elegance trim on the same doors. Finish is where the fleet match actually gets decided: it comes in Oil Rubbed Bronze and Satin Nickel. Match the finish code across the openings and the closet and inactive doors will read the same as the working ones.
5) Is the Weslock 3705 dummy knob rated for a commercial building or an apartment turn?
Residential. Weslock lists the Elegance line as residential door hardware, and while the series meets ANSI A156.2 Grade 2 lock standards, a knob is not an ADA compliant operable part. For a commercial or public accessible opening you want a lever. Heavy duty commercial dummy trim in lever form includes the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy at Grade 1, or the BEST 7KC Series 1DT at Grade 2 for medium duty work.
6) I need a knob on a closet door that stays shut. Is a dummy the right choice?
Only if the door already has a catch. A dummy provides no holding force at all. If the closet door swings open on its own, you want a passage set, which latches but never locks, from something like the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset or the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever. Use the 3705 dummy where a magnetic or roller catch is doing the holding and you just want matching trim.
7) Is a half dummy the same as a full dummy pair?
No. The Weslock 3705 half dummy ships one knob and one rosette for a single face of the door. A full dummy pair covers both faces and is what you want on a double door or a French door where each side needs trim: the Emtek Arts and Crafts dummy pair, the Emtek Hammered lever dummy pair, and the Emtek Classic Brass Cortina lever dummy pair are all sold as pairs. Ordering a half dummy for a two-sided application leaves one face bare.
8) What is the closest equivalent to a Weslock 3705 half dummy knob from another brand?
The Weslock 3705 is a single dummy in the Elegance Series, so the direct equivalents are other single dummy trims that surface mount with no latch. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy comes handed, in a left hand version and a right hand version, on the 5048 rose. The Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. In heavy duty commercial trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 single dummy and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a Grade 2 single dummy. All of these do the same job the 3705 does: decorative trim on an inactive leaf or closet door.
9) I need a knob on a closet door that actually latches - what do I order instead of the 3705 half dummy?
The Weslock 3705 is a dummy, surface mounted with no latching function, so it will not hold a closet door shut. For a latching closet or hall door, order a passage set: the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever on the 5048 rose, the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset, the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage set rated Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Arrow GL01 Grade 2 passage with the Sierra lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Passage function turns to retract a latch; dummy function does not.
10) Can I use the Weslock 3705 on a commercial corridor or classroom door?
The Weslock 3705 is a residential set with a molten bronze knob and rosette, and it is a dummy with no latch, so it is not the part for an opening that has to latch or be rated. For heavy duty commercial non-keyed openings, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 passage with a fire rating and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door range, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage with a fire rating for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. If the commercial opening only needs dummy trim, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is the Grade 1 single dummy.
11) Is the Weslock 3705 dummy knob solid brass or plated pot metal?
Brass. The Elegance knobs, and rosettes are solid molten bronze construction on a brass substrate, not a zinc casting with a shell. That matters on a dummy more than you would think, since a dummy knob takes the full pull load of the door on a small mounting footprint and a thin casting is where cheap dummies loosen.
12) Can the Weslock 3705 dummy be keyed or converted to lock later?
No. It is non-keyed with no cylinder and no latch, and there is no conversion path, since there is nothing in the door for a bolt to engage. If a lockable opening is what you actually need, order a keyed function set from the start, in an entrance or storeroom function depending on whether the outside knob should stay locked.
13) What is a half dummy versus a full dummy knob?
A half dummy is a single knob for one face of the door, which is what the Weslock 3705 is. A full dummy, sometimes sold as a dummy pair, puts trim on both faces and is what you use on a French door pair or any leaf people touch from both sides. The Emtek Arts and Crafts and Hammered lever dummies are sold as pairs; the Weslock 3705 is the single-side part.
14) What is the lever equivalent if I want the same dummy function but not a knob?
A dummy leverset is the swap. On the residential side, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever with the 5048 rose cover the same job in lever form. For commercial dummy trim, the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever. Levers are the choice on any opening that needs an accessible operable part, since a round knob requires grasping and twisting.
15) The bathroom door needs to lock - is the 3705 the wrong lock?
Yes, the Weslock 3705 is non-keyed dummy trim with no locking mechanism at all. A bed or bath door wants privacy function: the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever on the 5048 rose, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy set at Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Arrow MK02-TA privacy set with the Tudor knob, which is fire rated. Save the 3705 for the closet or inactive leaf where nothing has to latch.
16) I am matching a knob to levers already on the other doors - what dummy trim is available in lever form?
The Weslock 3705 carries the Impressa knob in the Elegance Series. If the rest of the openings are levered, dummy trim in lever form includes the Accentra 455LN Augusta, a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever in the 5400 Series, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT Grade 2 single dummy trim lever, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy lever, which is ordered as a left hand or a right hand part. Handing matters on the Baldwin; pick the hand that matches the door.
17) What is the difference between the Weslock 3705 dummy and a passage set on the same door style?
They are the same trim doing two different jobs. The Weslock 3705 is dummy function, surface mounted with no bore-through latch, so the knob is fixed and purely decorative. A passage set of the same look drives a latch: the Baldwin Estate 5103 is sold in both a half dummy and a passage version on the identical 5048 rose, so the choice between them is entirely about whether that leaf needs to latch. Weslock rates its Elegance mechanicals to ANSI A156.2 Grade II; the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage is catalogued by function rather than by an equivalent statement.
18) Does a dummy knob like the Weslock 3705 need to be handed?
The Weslock 3705 single dummy mounts on either the interior or the exterior face, though handing requirements should be checked for the specific opening. Peers differ on this: the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is ordered as a distinct left hand or right hand part, so the hand has to be called out at time of order, while the Emtek Arts and Crafts and Cortina dummy sets ship as pairs covering both faces. On a fleet of closet doors that difference decides how many part numbers you are managing.
19) Which non-keyed sets are ADA compliant if I am replacing knobs with levers?
The Weslock Elegance Series lists ADA compliant levers, but the 3705 carries the Impressa knob, and a knob does not satisfy an operable-without-grasping requirement. For lever trim on non-keyed openings, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 passage with a non-handed lever, the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever, the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage lever in the 5300 Series. Any of these puts a lever where the knob was.
20) Is there a Grade 2 dummy alternative to the Weslock 3705 for a light commercial job?
The Weslock 3705 is rated to ANSI A156.2 Grade II. If a job calls for a commercial Grade 2 dummy instead, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is a medium duty Grade 2 single dummy trim, and the Callan Bentley is a Grade 2 dummy lever. Stepping up, the BEST 9K Series 1DT and the Accentra 455LN Augusta in the 5400 Series are both Grade 1 heavy duty single dummies.
21) What finishes does the Weslock 3705 Impressa dummy knob come in?
Two: Oil Rubbed Bronze and Satin Nickel, both on the Impressa knob. Oil Rubbed Bronze is a living finish that darkens and wears at the touch points, so on a high traffic closet run it will not stay uniform against a factory-fresh replacement later. Satin Nickel holds its appearance more consistently across a set of doors installed at different times.
22) Are the mounting screws on the Weslock Elegance dummy visible on the rose?
No exposed fasteners. Weslock builds concealed installation screws into the Elegance hardware, so the rosette sits clean on the door face with no screw heads showing. On a dummy that detail is the whole point, since the trim is decorative and it is usually going on a visible feature door.
23) What finish-matched alternatives exist to the Weslock 3705 in satin nickel?
The Weslock 3705 Impressa knob comes in oil rubbed bronze and satin nickel. Among comparable non-keyed sets, the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset is catalogued in a satin nickel finish, and the Bravura Miramar passage leverset with round trim is a Grade 2 set in US4 satin brass if the fleet is running a brass tone instead. Confirm the finish code against the existing hardware before standardizing a building on one of them.
