Baldwin Torrey Pines Privacy Lever for Bedroom or Bathroom Door Handle in Satin Nickel, Prestige Series with a Modern Contemporary Slim Design for Interior Doors

Como se atreven a vender este producto en pesimo estado, no lo recomiendo, fatal

Had no trouble removing my old door handle and installing this one but could not get the locking mechanism to work. Finally called the support number on instructions and the person who answered asked me if this was the “prestige” series set. As this is the “prestige” series she gave me detailed instructions regarding the set screws (on both handles) which were NOT in the written instructions which finally solved my problem. Now that it works I’m very pleased with the unit.

This is my second Baldwin keyed entry lock and they first one lasted nearly 30 years. You can feel the solid build of these locks compared to other brands, more heft and smooth and firm functioning. Looks great installed too, and rekeying it with the SmartKey took less than a minute from start to finish. Really, no joke! I would have given it 5 stars except the set screw to attach the exterior handle is inserted backwards and must be removed by backing it out through a hole on the other side of where it screws in using the included allen wrench. The screw also keeps the interior locking knob from turning until you remove that screw, none of which is mentioned in the instructions. Also the handles were not threaded to receive the set screw. Even with that it is still a heavy duty nice looking lock set.

This lockset looks classy and feels great with no sharp or rough edges. There isn't excess play or noise when the handle is turned and the lever is much easier to use and convenient when your hands are full of groceries.I installed this on the garage entry door specifically because of the convenience of use when our hands are full (of groceries). I will get another for the front door and replace the rest of the door knobs in the house with this style. I currently have Baldwin Prestige Alcott knob series on the front door but will move it to the basement entry. It is 5 years old and still looks and feels brand new.SLIGHT CON: this uses Smart Key lockset which I wouldn't feel comfortable using without my Medeco deadbolt and door armor kit. Smart Key may be a pro for you though.

Nice and heavy door handles. I ordered 3 different kinds and had to return them because they were difficult to use or install or felt very cheap. The pin hole in the privacy knobs are also a lot easier to open than other brands. Some are almost impossible to unlock. They look great and feel nice and heavy and super easy to install. Definitely recommend. I wish they came in satin brass.
