Arrow QL72-SR-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Arrow QL72 privacy lever fit a 1-3/8 inch bathroom door?
Yes. The QL72 privacy lever covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors as standard, so both older interior bedroom and bath doors at 1-3/8 and standard commercial 1-3/4 inch leaves take the same lock. Door prep is a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the common commercial bore pattern, not the 2-3/8 inch residential one.
2) Does the Arrow QL72 lever lock need to be ordered left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The QL72 is non-handed, so one part number works on either swing and a property manager can stock a single lock for every bath and bedroom door in the building. Levers are pressure cast zinc at 4-3/4 inches long with 3-11/32 inch wrought brass roses, projecting 2-17/32 inches off the door face.
3) How does the privacy function on the Arrow QL72 work if someone locks themselves in the bathroom?
Pushing the inside button locks the outside lever. It unlocks three ways: turning the inside lever, closing the door, or using the emergency key from the corridor side. The inside lever always retracts the latch regardless of the button, so nobody gets trapped. That emergency release is what separates a real privacy set from a passage set on a bath or patient toilet door.
4) Is the Arrow QL72 privacy lever heavy duty enough for a public restroom in a commercial building?
It is a Grade 1 commercial lockset, the top ANSI/BHMA cylindrical tier, and the lever freewheels when locked so someone hanging on it or kicking it does not break the spindle. That freewheeling clutch is the reason this holds up in high traffic restrooms where a Grade 2 or Grade 3 residential privacy set gets destroyed. The latchbolt is stainless and UL Listed.
5) What is the closest Grade 1 alternative to the Arrow QL72 privacy lever for a bed or bath door?
The Arrow QL72 is a Grade 1 cylindrical lever in the Privacy/Bed/Bath function, non-keyed. Within the commercial Grade 1 cylindrical lever group, the Falcon K101 and Falcon T101 are both Grade 1 heavy duty non-keyed cylindrical levers, but both are Passage/Hall/Closet function, meaning they have no locking button - they latch only. If the door genuinely needs to lock from inside, a passage lock is not an equivalent. For a locking privacy function at a lighter grade, the Hager 2540 is a privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever, and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The QL72 stays the Grade 1 choice in that function.
6) Can a passage lever be used in place of a privacy lever on a restroom door?
No. The Arrow QL72 is a privacy function: the latch is operated by the lever either side except when the outside lever is locked by pushing the inside button, and the outside lever is unlocked by turning the inside lever, using the emergency key, or closing the door. A passage lever has none of that. The Falcon B101 Grade 2 and Falcon K101 Grade 1 are both Passage/Hall/Closet, the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset, and the Accentra 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage lever - all of them latch the door and free-turn from both sides at all times. For a restroom or bedroom that needs occupant privacy, the QL72 privacy function is the one to specify.
7) What should be used instead of an Arrow QL72 on a 2 inch thick door?
The Arrow QL72 fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors as standard, so a 2 inch leaf is outside that range. Among commercial cylindrical levers that reach 2 inches, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever rated 1-3/4 to 2 inch and fire rated, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch. Note that all three are passage function rather than privacy, so on a thick bath door confirm the function requirement before substituting.
8) Is a dummy lever the same thing as a non-keyed privacy lever?
No, and the shared non-keyed description is what causes the mix-up. The Arrow QL72 is non-keyed but it is a working cylindrical privacy lock with a latch operated by the lever from either side and an inside push button. A dummy trim has no latch and no mechanism at all - it is fixed pull trim. The BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 non-keyed single dummy trim, the BEST 7KC Series 1DT is the Grade 2 dummy, the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 comes in left hand and right hand half dummy versions. Order a dummy only for an inactive leaf or a closet face that never latches.
9) If a door needs a key on the outside, what replaces the Arrow QL72?
The QL72 is non-keyed - its outside lever is released by turning the inside lever, using an emergency key, or closing the door, which is a privacy release rather than key control. When the outside must be keyed, the function changes with it: the Dexter C1000 Entry/Office is a Grade 1 keyed clutching lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Dexter C1000 Classroom is the Grade 1 keyed classroom version on the same thickness range, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial keyed entry lever. Pick by who is allowed to leave the door unlocked, not by grade alone.
10) Which lever should go on a patient room or utility door instead of a privacy lever?
A privacy lever such as the Arrow QL72 lets the occupant lock the outside lever with an inside button, which is exactly what some institutional openings must not allow. For those, the Dexter C1000 Asylum (F87) is a Grade 1 cylindrical lock in the asylum, institution and utility function covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Where the concern is a classroom that must be securable from inside, the Dexter C1000 Classroom Security is a Grade 1 keyed clutching lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The QL72 stays on bed and bath openings where occupant privacy is the intent.
11) Do I need a key or cylinder with the Arrow QL72, and does it take an interchangeable core?
None needed. The QL72 is a non-keyed privacy function, so there is no cylinder to order and no keying to specify. The outside face carries an emergency release for the key that comes with it, not a pin tumbler cylinder. If you need a keyed opening on the same QL trim, that is a different function in the series, not this one.
12) What screws come with the Arrow QL72 and will it mount on a hollow metal door as well as wood?
Both wood and machine screws are in the box, so the same carton covers a wood door and a hollow metal door without a separate fastener pack. Installation is a two screw lockset, which is why a crew can swap a run of restroom doors quickly.
13) What is a Grade 1 alternative to the Arrow QL72 if I need a passage lever instead of privacy on the same doors?
For a closet or corridor door that needs no locking, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lever covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors and carrying a fire rating, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. Keep the QL72 on the bath and bedroom doors where the inside button and emergency release are the point.
14) Is there a cheaper privacy lever than the Arrow QL72 for apartment bedroom and bath doors?
Two lighter privacy options exist if the traffic does not justify Grade 1. The Hager 2540 uses the Withnell lever and covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Kwikset is residential duty; for a multi-family common bath or anything with public traffic the QL72's Grade 1 freewheeling lever is the one that survives.
15) What is a lighter duty privacy lever for apartment interior doors that do not see commercial traffic?
The Arrow QL72 is a Grade 1 commercial privacy lever for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. On interior doors in a residential unit where Grade 1 abuse resistance is more than the opening calls for, the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 privacy lever set covering the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door thickness, and the Hager 2540 is a privacy cylindrical lock with a Withnell lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. All three lock from the occupied side; they differ in grade and in the door thickness range each one covers.
16) What Grade 1 lever holds up best on a high abuse opening compared to the Arrow QL72?
The QL72 uses a freewheeling lever for abuse resistance and carries a Grade 1 rating with a two screw install. Among the other Grade 1 commercial levers, the Falcon T101 is a heavy duty cylindrical lever using pressure release technology, the Falcon K101 is a heavy duty Grade 1 that is fire rated, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is described as vandal resistant. Each takes a different approach to the same problem: the QL72 and T101 let the lever give way under force, while the K101 and CL3110 answer it through their Grade 1 heavy duty construction.
17) Is there a keyless pushbutton lever that can take the place of an Arrow QL72 privacy lock?
Only if the requirement is controlled access rather than occupant privacy. The QL72 locks from the inside with a push button and releases by turning the inside lever or closing the door - nobody enters a code. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever with passage function and ADA compliance for 1-3/16 to 2 inch doors, the Lockey 2835DC is the double combination version on the same thickness range, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with passage function for 1-1/8 to 2 inch doors. For an electronic option the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 keypad lever lock. These are entry control products; a bath or bedroom door still wants the privacy function.
18) For a hotel or multi-family job standardizing on one lever look, what matches an Arrow QL72 on the non-locking doors?
The QL72 covers the privacy openings - bedrooms and baths - as a Grade 1 non-handed lever. The closet and hall doors on the same job take a passage lever, and staying at Grade 1 there means the Falcon K101 or the Falcon T101 heavy duty passage levers, or the Design Hardware X75 Grade 1 passage lever lockset. Stepping to Grade 2 on those secondary openings brings in the Accentra 4601LN with Augusta trim, the Hager 2510 with the Withnell lever, or the Design Hardware J75. Inactive leaves take dummy trim such as the BEST 9K 1DT Grade 1 single dummy.
19) Does an Arrow QL72 need to be ordered by hand like a Baldwin Estate 5103?
No. The Arrow QL72 is non-handed, so one part number serves both left and right hand doors. That is not universal in the lever category: the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is ordered as a distinct left hand or right hand part. Among the commercial peers, the Falcon B101 and Falcon K101 are both described as non-handed passage levers. On a QL72 order, finish is the choice to make - 605 bright brass, 626 satin chrome, 613E dark oxidized bronze, or BSP black suede powder coat - and hand does not enter into it.
20) What privacy lever suits a decorative residential opening rather than a commercial corridor?
The Arrow QL72 is a commercial Grade 1 cylindrical privacy lever with a pressure cast zinc lever and wrought brass rose. Where the opening is a finished residential interior and the trim styling drives the choice, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the privacy function in a decorative line, with matching passage and half dummy versions in the same 5103 trim so a whole suite of interior doors reads the same. The Arrow remains the commercial-duty answer; the Baldwin answers the appearance requirement.
21) What finishes does the Arrow QL72 privacy lever come in, and will it match my existing hardware?
Four finishes: 605 bright brass, 626 satin chrome, 613E dark oxidized bronze, and BSP black suede powder coat. 626 satin chrome is the usual commercial default and matches most existing satin chrome closers and hinges; 613E is the option for a dark bronze building standard.
22) I need a matching non-latching lever for the inactive leaf next to my Arrow QL72 doors. What do I order?
The QL72 is a working privacy latch, not a dummy, so it will not serve a false or inactive leaf. For dummy trim on the same run, the BEST 9K Series 1DT is a Grade 1 single dummy cylindrical lever, and the Accentra 455LN Augusta is a Grade 1 single dummy in the 5400 Series. Match the finish across both.
