Arrow E61 26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Arrow E Series SFIC deadbolt come with a core, or do I need to supply my own?
It ships less core. The E61 SFIC version is prepped for a small format interchangeable core and accepts 6 or 7 pin cores, including Best or Falcon type cores. So you supply the core and key it into your existing SFIC system. If you want a lock that arrives keyed and ready to hang, the conventional cylinder version comes with a solid brass Arrow A keyway cylinder drilled for 6 pins, pinned to 5, with two keys.
2) Will this Arrow deadbolt fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it 1-3/4 only?
Both. The E Series deadlock handles doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick as standard, which covers older interior doors and standard commercial doors alike. It's supplied with two 1/4 inch steel thru-bolts for a solid pull-up on either thickness.
3) Will this Arrow deadbolt latch into the strike already in my frame?
The bolt is a 1 inch throw solid steel deadbolt with a hardened steel pin insert, and it ships with the #395 strike pack for metal and wood frames. The standard strike opening is 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inches, flat type. If your existing frame is prepped for that standard ANSI deadbolt strike, it will engage; a deeper or shallower existing pocket means you use the supplied strike instead.
4) Is the Arrow E61 deadbolt rated for use on a fire door?
It's UL and cUL listed for use on A label or lesser doors, but only when installed along with a rated primary latching device. A deadbolt alone does not make the opening compliant, so the lockset or exit device on that door has to carry the fire rating. The E Series also meets ANSI A156.5 Auxiliary Locks, Grade 2.
5) Can I key this Arrow deadbolt to my existing Schlage keys?
Yes, on the conventional cylinder version. The E Series is available in Schlage C and CS keyways as well as the Arrow A keyway and other competitive keyways, and Schlage C is offered as a keyway option here. The SFIC prepped version takes any 6 or 7 pin small format core, so if your building runs a Best or Falcon SFIC system you just drop in a core cut to your master key.
6) I need a deadbolt for a 2-1/4 inch thick door. Will the Arrow E Series work?
No. The E Series tops out at 1-3/4 inch standard door thickness. For a thicker door, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 cylindrical deadlock covers 1-3/4 inch through 2-1/4 inch, and the Deltana 7312KA2 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
7) What is another small format interchangeable core deadbolt if the Arrow E61 SFIC prep less core is not workable?
The Deltana CL200LAIC is a single cylinder deadbolt built for an interchangeable core and supplied without the cylinder, rated Grade 2, with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Arrow E61 is also a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock prepped less core, but it is ordered with a 2-3/8 inch backset. If the door is already bored at 2-3/4 inches, the Deltana matches that bore directly.
8) I need a less core deadbolt but at Grade 1 instead of Grade 2 - what should I order?
The Delaney LM Series 301702 is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in dull chrome (US26D). It shares the less core approach with the Arrow E61 single cylinder deadlock, which carries a Grade 2 rating, so the Delaney is the step up in ANSI grade for the same keying strategy.
9) What is a comparable Grade 2 commercial deadbolt that ships with a Schlage C keyway cylinder already in it?
The Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw, and the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt supplied with a Schlage C keyway; both fit doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. The Arrow E61 covers the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range but is prepped for a small format interchangeable core and comes without a core, so the Hager units are the choice when you want a keyed cylinder in the box.
10) The opening needs keyed access from both sides - what replaces the Arrow E61 single cylinder deadlock?
For key on both faces, look at the Hager 3214 Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with Schlage C keyway for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, or the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder in the same Grade 2 tier and the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range. The Arrow E61 is a single cylinder deadbolt, key outside and turn inside, so it will not serve a glass-adjacent opening where a thumbturn is not allowed.
11) What is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock alternative for a heavy traffic commercial opening?
The Corbin Russwin DL3011 and DL3211 are Grade 1 cylindrical deadlocks with a deadbolt function; the DL3011 covers doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 inches thick and the DL3211 is specified at 1-3/4 inches. The Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 cylindrical deadbolt for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, so the DL3011 is the one to reach for on a thicker door than the Arrow accepts.
12) Do I have to order the Arrow E61 deadlock handed for a left or right door?
No handing to specify. All E Series deadlock functions are reversible and the E61 is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. Useful if you're stocking spares for a building rather than ordering per door.
13) What is single cylinder deadbolt function 61, and when should I use a double cylinder instead?
Function 61 is key operation from the outside and a thumbturn inside, so anyone inside can throw or retract the bolt without a key. That's the usual choice for a commercial back door or a unit entry. Where there's glass next to the door and you don't want a reach-through release, a double cylinder version is keyed both sides, though many jurisdictions restrict double cylinder on required egress doors.
14) How does the Arrow E61 resist someone twisting the cylinder off with a wrench?
The outside housing is two-piece with a free spinning outer ring, so a wrench or pipe grabs a collar that just turns instead of transmitting torque to the cylinder. Mounting screws are concealed, and the bolt itself carries a hardened steel pin insert to resist sawing. That combination is why the E Series gets specified on exterior and service doors rather than a residential-grade bolt.
15) What are the alternatives to the Arrow E61 if I need a Grade 1 deadbolt instead of Grade 2?
The Arrow E Series is ANSI A156.5 Grade 2, which suits most multi-family and light commercial openings. If your spec calls for Grade 1, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset and 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range, and the Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty deadbolt with an adjustable backset. If you specifically need another less-core option, the Delaney LM Series is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt.
16) How does the Falcon D211 compare to the Arrow E61 deadlock?
The Falcon D211 is a Grade 2, medium duty deadbolt in the D200 Series with classroom function and single cylinder operation, meaning the key operates the bolt from the outside. The Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a thumbturn inside. If the specification calls for classroom function with no inside turn, the D211 is the match; the Falcon D111 is the Grade 1 heavy duty version of that same classroom arrangement with an adjustable backset.
17) What deadbolt should I standardize on across a residential-style property instead of the Arrow E61?
The Dexter DB2000 single cylinder is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, and the Bravura 310B Elite is a Grade 2 traditional round cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt. Both hold the same Grade 2 tier as the Arrow E61 single cylinder deadlock but come with a standard cylinder rather than an interchangeable core prep, which is the simpler path when you are not running a keying system with removable cores.
18) Which deadbolt has a tamper resistant cylinder guard similar to the Arrow E61 collar?
The Cal-Royal CB160 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a tamper-resistant cylinder guard. The Arrow E61 uses a two-piece housing with a free spinning outer ring to resist wrenching and a solid steel bolt with a hardened steel pin insert. Both address attack at the cylinder, with the CB160 doing it through a guard and the Arrow through the rotating collar.
19) We need a deadbolt on an opening with no inside access at all - what works there?
The Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt, which mounts with an outside cylinder only and no through bore to the interior face. The Arrow E61 is a single cylinder deadbolt that requires trim on both faces of the door. Use the 205S on storefront-adjacent or utility openings where there is nothing to mount on the inside.
20) Does the Corbin Russwin DL2211 do the same job as the Arrow E61?
The DL2211 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock in the DL2200 Series with classroom function for 1-3/4 inch doors, cylinder by blank plate, so there is no inside turn. The Arrow E61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with a thumbturn inside, for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. They are both cylindrical deadlocks, but the inside trim and the door thickness range differ.
21) What finishes does the Arrow E Series deadlock come in for matching the rest of my building's hardware?
Two finishes are stocked here: 626 satin chrome and 605 bright brass. Across the E Series the finish range runs US3, US4, US5A, US10, US10B, US10BE, US15, US26, US26D and BSP. Satin chrome (626/US26D) is what most commercial openings are standardized on, so that's usually the match for existing levers and closers.
22) Is the BEST 8T tubular deadbolt tube component an alternative to the Arrow E61?
No. The BEST 8T is a tube component from the T Series tubular deadbolt, that is the bolt assembly portion rather than a complete keyed deadbolt. The Arrow E61 is a complete single cylinder deadlock with a 1 inch throw solid steel bolt and a 1-1/8 inch by 2-3/4 inch strike. Order the 8T only when you are replacing the bolt within an existing BEST tubular deadbolt.
23) What is an electronic deadbolt option if we want to move off keyed cylinders like the Arrow E61?
The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, and the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel. The Arrow E61 is a keyed mechanical deadbolt prepped for a small format interchangeable core. The KP400 holds the same Grade 2 rating as the Arrow while removing the key from daily use.
