Arrow RLX01-SR-26D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Arrow RLX01-SR passage lever fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it only for 1-3/4?
Both. The RX Series cylindrical lockset fits doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch as standard, with no extra kit needed. It needs a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the door face, so it drops into a typical 161 prep.
2) Does the Arrow RLX01 passage lockset need to be handed when I order?
No handing to specify. The RLX01 is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager buying a carton for a building, that means no sorting on site.
3) What does passage function mean on the Arrow RLX01 - does it lock at all?
It does not lock, and there is no cylinder or keyway in it. The latchbolt retracts from the lever on either side at all times, which is the ANSI F75 passage function. Use it on corridor, hall and closet doors where you only want a latched door. If the room needs to be secured from the inside, you want a privacy or an entry function instead.
4) Which latch and strike ship with the Arrow RLX01 passage lever?
Standard is an R73 springlatch with a 2-3/4 inch backset and an R62 ASA strike measuring 4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inches, with a 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inch latch faceplate. Throw is 1/2 inch. The RX Series is also built for a 2-3/8 inch backset, which takes a 1 x 2-1/4 inch front. Wood and machine screws are included.
5) My frames are prepped for a 2-3/4 inch T strike, not an ASA strike. Can I still use the Arrow RX Series lever?
Yes. Besides the 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike, the RX Series is offered with a 2-3/4 inch T strike and a 2-1/4 inch full lip strike, so you can match an existing frame prep rather than re-cutting it. The 1/2 inch latch throw is the same across them.
6) I need a passage lever for a labeled fire door - is the Arrow RLX01 the right one?
No fire rating is carried on the RX Series passage lockset, so do not spec it for a labeled opening. Among passage levers we stock, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 are both listed as fire rated; the CL3110 is also vandal resistant and fits 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
7) Will the Arrow RLX01-SR work on a 2 inch thick door, and what fits if it will not?
No. The Arrow RLX01-SR is built for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For thicker leaves, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Dexter C1000 asylum function covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch.
8) Is a dummy lever a substitute for the Arrow RLX01-SR passage lockset?
No. The Arrow RLX01-SR has a working latchbolt operated by the lever from either side, so it actually latches the door. A dummy trim is fixed and has no latch - it is surface mounted pull trim only. If you need dummy trim for an inactive leaf instead, options include the BEST 7KC single dummy trim in Grade 2, the BEST 9K 1DT single dummy trim in Grade 1 heavy duty, the Accentra 455LN Augusta Grade 1 single dummy, and the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever.
9) What is a direct Grade 2 passage lever equivalent to the Arrow RLX01-SR?
The Arrow RLX01-SR is a Grade 2 cylindrical passage leverset with latchbolt operated by lever either side. Close cross-brand equivalents at the same grade and function include the Falcon B101 Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with Withnell design, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta Grade 2 passage/closet lever, and the Design Hardware J75 Grade 2 passage lever with flat lever. All four are non-keyed passage function like the RLX01-SR, which is listed as non-keyed.
10) I need a heavier passage lever than the Arrow RLX01 for a high-traffic corridor - what should I use instead?
The Arrow RLX01-SR is a Grade 2 commercial passage leverset. For heavier cycle duty, step up to a Grade 1 passage lever: the Falcon K101 is Grade 1 heavy duty passage with a fire rating and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, the Falcon T101 is Grade 1 heavy duty passage with pressure release technology, the Dexter C1000 passage is Grade 1 non-keyed with clutching levers, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever. Note the CL3110 fits 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, while the RLX01-SR covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
11) The opening needs to lock - what takes the place of the Arrow RLX01-SR?
The RLX01-SR is non-keyed passage function only, with no locking. For a locking opening in the same cylindrical lever format, look at function-matched alternates: Hager 2525 Grade 2 entry lever, Hager 2580 Grade 2 storeroom with Withnell lever, Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom with deadlocking latchbolt, Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever in the AG Series, and Falcon B511CP6D Grade 2 entrance/office. For bed and bath privacy without a key, the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with 5048 rose is a privacy function option.
12) Is a Grade 2 Arrow RLX01 enough for apartment corridor and closet doors?
For multi-family and light commercial traffic, yes. The RX Series is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical lockset, and Arrow positions it at multi-family housing and light commercial. On a high-traffic institutional opening, such as a school corridor, buyers typically step up to Grade 1 passage such as the Falcon K101 or the Dexter C1000 passage.
13) How far does the Arrow RX lever stick out from the door, and how big is the rose?
Total projection from the door face is 2-1/2 inches. The RL levers are pressure cast zinc, 4-3/4 inches long, on wrought brass roses 3-3/8 inches in diameter. Worth checking against narrow returns or a door that swings back against a wall.
14) What are the closest alternatives to the Arrow RLX01 Grade 2 passage lever from other brands?
Staying at Grade 2 cylindrical passage, the Accentra 5301LN and 4601LN Augusta, the Falcon B101 (non-handed, medium duty), the Hager 2510 Withnell, and the Design Hardware J75 all cover the same function. The Hager 2510 takes doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches if you have thicker leaves than the Arrow's 1-3/4 inch maximum. Going lighter, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is Grade 3 residential.
15) What is a lighter-duty alternative to the Arrow RLX01-SR for residential interior doors?
The Arrow RLX01-SR is a Grade 2 commercial passage leverset. For residential interior halls and closets, Grade 3 passage levers cover the same job: the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the RLX01-SR covers, and the Callan Asheville is a Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. The Kwikset 200DL Delta passage lever is a reversible hall/closet lock supplied with an adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike.
16) I want a decorative passage lever instead of the Arrow RLX01-SR Sierra lever - what are the options?
The Arrow RLX01-SR carries the SR Sierra lever in 605 bright brass, 626 satin chrome, 613E dark oxide bronze and BSP black suede powder coat. If the design direction calls for something more decorative, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is a passage function alternate, and Bravura offers Grade 2 passage leversets in several trim styles: Atlanta and Orlando with round trim, Tampa with square trim, and Miramar with round trim in US4 satin brass.
17) Can I use a keypad lever in place of the Arrow RLX01-SR?
Only if you want credential control the RLX01-SR does not provide - it is a non-keyed passage lever with the latch retracted by the lever from either side. Mechanical and electronic keypad levers that cover passage function include the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever with passage function and ADA compliance for 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, the Lockey 2835DC double combination version, the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever with passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock in Grade 2.
18) How does the Arrow RLX01-SR compare with the Design Hardware X75 passage lever?
Both are cylindrical passage leversets. The Arrow RLX01-SR is Grade 2 and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and it ships with the R62 ASA strike, 4-7/8 inch x 1-1/4 inch. The Design Hardware X75 in the X Series is Grade 1 passage with a flat lever and is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors; the Design Hardware J75 is the Grade 2 flat lever passage counterpart, also for 1-3/4 inch doors.
19) What finishes does the Arrow RLX01 Sierra lever come in?
Four: 605 bright brass, 626 satin chrome, 613E dark oxide bronze electroplated, and BSP black suede powder coated. All on the SR Sierra lever design. 626 is the usual choice when you are matching existing commercial hardware.
20) Can I swap out the Arrow RX lever later without pulling the whole lock apart?
The RL Series comes with removable thru-bolts as standard, which is what makes the RX Series easier to service in the field than a fixed-thru-bolt lock. Chassis is cold rolled steel with a zinc dichromate coating for corrosion resistance.
