Adams Rite 28-0225 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What lock does the Adams Rite 28-0225 return spring fit?
The 28-0225 is the OEM return spring for the Adams Rite 4568 series mechanical lock, and that is the only lock it is built for. It drops into the existing assembly without modification, so if the lever or handle on a 4568 is sagging or not returning to horizontal, this is the part that restores that action. It is not a universal spring, so don't specify it for other Adams Rite deadlatch or MS series bodies.
2) My tenant's lever handle droops and won't spring back - is a return spring the fix?
On a 4568, a lever that no longer returns to level is almost always the return spring, and the 28-0225 is the replacement for it. It restores smooth, consistent lever return to the lock assembly. If the lever returns fine but the latch itself won't retract or the cylinder is the problem, a return spring won't help you.
3) Can a Corbin Russwin swivel spindle pin and set screw be used in place of the Adams Rite 28-0225 return spring?
No. The Adams Rite 28-0225 is a return spring made to Adams Rite OEM specifications for the 4568 series mechanical lock, and it is what restores the return action of the lever or handle. The Corbin Russwin swivel spindle pin with set screw is a spindle retention part for a Corbin Russwin lock rated for a 1-3/4 inch door thickness, so it serves a different function in a different manufacturer's lock case. Order the 28-0225 when the 4568 lock is not returning properly.
4) What do I get when I order the Adams Rite 28-0225 - a full repair kit or just the spring?
The 28-0225 is the return spring itself, ordered as a single part number with no size, finish or handing choices to specify. If the hub, spindle or cams in the 4568 are also worn, those are separate Adams Rite part numbers and need to be ordered alongside it.
5) Is there a generic spring that works instead of the Adams Rite 28-0225 in a 4568 lock?
The 28-0225 is specified as a drop-in genuine Adams Rite replacement for the 4568 series, so it seats and tensions without modification to the lock case. Other small hardware parts such as the Corbin Russwin swivel spindle pin and set screw are built around a different lock platform and a 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and are not interchangeable with a 4568 return spring. For a 4568 repair, the 28-0225 is the matching part number.
6) Is this spring rated for commercial door traffic or is it a light-duty residential part?
Commercial. The 28-0225 is classified as a commercial-grade replacement part within Adams Rite's door hardware line, intended for openings in offices, retail, schools, healthcare and multi-tenant buildings where the lock cycles heavily every day.
