Arrow RLX87SR26D-IC 2-3/4 BS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Arrow RLX87SR classroom function actually do at the door?
The latchbolt retracts from the lever on either side until the outside key is used to lock the outside lever. The inside lever is always free to exit, and the key outside both locks and unlocks the outside lever only. That is the ANSI/BHMA F84 classroom arrangement: staff control the door from the corridor side with a key, and nobody gets trapped inside.
2) Will the Arrow RLX87SR drop into an existing 2-3/4 inch backset door prep?
Yes. The RLX87SR comes with a G71 deadlatch on a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard commercial cylindrical prep, and the latch face is 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches. Frame side it uses a 306 ASA ANSI strike, 4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inches, so if your frame already has ANSI strike prep it lines up without new cutting.
3) Do I need to order a left or right hand version of this Arrow lever?
No handing to specify. The RLX87SR is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right swings on inswing or outswing openings. That is useful for a property manager or MRO buyer stocking spares, since one lock on the shelf covers every classroom door in the building.
4) What keying options does the Arrow RLX87SR classroom lever come in?
Two ways to buy it: factory keyed in Schlage C keyway, or SFIC less core if you run your own small format interchangeable core system and want to pin and install your own cores. Locksmiths standardizing a school or campus on an existing SFIC master system should take the less core version; the Schlage C option suits a single building already on C keyway.
5) What is the closest Grade 2 classroom lever to the Arrow RLX87SR from another manufacturer?
The Cal-Royal AG03 is the nearest match in the AG Series: it is a Grade 2 classroom lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/4 inch backset, the same backset the Arrow RLX87SR uses and the same Schlage C keyway offered on one of its configurations. Both are cylindrical keyed levers for classroom doors, so the AG03 drops into the same 2-3/4 inch bore prep.
6) If I need a heavy duty classroom lever instead of a Grade 2, what should I order?
Step up to the Dexter C1000 Series classroom lever, which is Grade 1 with a clutching keyed lever and fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. The Arrow RLX87SR is Grade 2 with a freewheeling clutched lever, so the Dexter gives the same abuse-resistant clutch action at the higher ANSI grade for high-traffic school and institutional corridors.
7) The door needs to stay locked from the outside at all times - is the Arrow RLX87SR right, or is there a better function?
For a door that is always locked outside and free egress inside, use a storeroom function such as the Cal-Royal AG05, a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, or the Hager 2580 Grade 2 storeroom lever with the Withnell design for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches. On the Arrow RLX87SR the key outside locks and unlocks the outside lever, so it is meant for a teacher to secure the room by key rather than to stay permanently locked.
8) Is a clutched lever worth it on a school corridor door?
It is the main reason to pick the RLX Series. The lever freewheels when the lock is secured, so force applied to a locked lever turns the handle without loading the chassis or the spindle. On classroom and corridor doors that get hung on and kicked, that is what keeps the lock from being broken open or sagging. It is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical lock, BHMA A156.2 Series 4000, and UL Listed.
9) Is a Grade 2 classroom lever enough, or should I specify Grade 1?
For most classroom and office corridor doors in a school or commercial building, Grade 2 like the RLX87SR is the normal specification and its clutched lever adds abuse resistance. If your spec sheet calls for Grade 1, look at the Dexter C1000 classroom cylindrical lever, which is Grade 1 and also clutching, or the Corbin Russwin CL3100 Series for a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical chassis.
10) I need other functions to match this Sierra lever on the rest of the doors. What else is in the RLX Series?
The Sierra lever design runs across the whole RLX line, so trim matches door to door: RLX01-SR passage, RLX72-SR privacy, RLX81-SR entrance/office, RLX82-SR storeroom, RLX87-SR classroom, and RLX08-SR single dummy, which is rigid trim for one face only used as a pull or to match active trim. Order the same finish across them and the openings look identical.
11) What is a comparable Grade 2 classroom or storeroom lever if the Arrow RLX87SR is not the one I need?
Staying at Grade 2 commercial, the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever is the closest match on function and also runs a 2-3/4 inch backset with 6-pin Schlage C. If the door should stay locked to the outside at all times with free egress instead of key-controlled locking, go storeroom: the Cal-Royal AG05 or the Hager 2580 with Withnell lever are both Grade 2 storeroom locks.
12) Does the Arrow RLX87SR take an interchangeable core, or is it a fixed cylinder?
Both are available. Standard build is a 6-pin solid brass cylinder supplied with two nickel-plated brass keys, and IC prep is offered, which is what the SFIC less core build uses. It is a single cylinder lock, keyed outside only.
13) What is the difference between the Arrow RLX87SR and the Dexter C1000 classroom security lever?
The Dexter C1000 classroom security version is a Grade 1 clutching keyed lever whose classroom security function lets the room be locked and unlocked by key from inside as well, for lockdown from within the classroom. The Arrow RLX87SR is Grade 2 and is keyed on the outside only, single cylinder, so securing the door means stepping into the corridor.
14) Can I use a Kwikset 200BRNL or a Callan Artino on a classroom door instead?
No. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 passage lever with no key at all, and the Callan Artino is a Grade 3 entrance leverset. The Arrow RLX87SR is a Grade 2 keyed lever whose outside lever is locked and unlocked by key, which is the function a classroom door requires; the Grade 3 residential-duty sets do not carry that function or grade.
15) My spec calls for a fire-rated Grade 1 cylindrical lever on doors up to 2 inches thick - what fits?
The Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, covering doors 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant cylindrical lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. Both are passage function; the Arrow RLX87SR is a Grade 2 keyed lever sized for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
16) Is there a keyless option if I do not want to issue keys for this door?
Yes. The Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with ADA compliance for doors 1 3/16 to 2 inches, and the Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock. Both remove the key entirely, whereas the Arrow RLX87SR uses a single-cylinder key to lock and unlock the outside lever.
17) What should I use on an office door where the lever locks with a thumbturn or button instead of a key only?
Entrance/office function is the right family there: the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical entry/office lever, the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial entry lever for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal AG00 is an entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/8 inch backset. The Arrow RLX87SR is keyed outside only with the inside lever always free, which suits classrooms rather than offices that lock from within.
18) I need the same lever look on a door with no latch - what dummy trim goes with the Arrow RLX87SR?
Single dummy trim options include the BEST 7KC Series 1DT, a Grade 2 medium duty non-keyed single dummy cylindrical lever trim, and the BEST 9K Series 1DT, the Grade 1 heavy duty equivalent. Dummy trim has no latch or chassis at all, unlike the Arrow RLX87SR, which ships with a G71 deadlatch on a 2-3/4 inch backset.
19) Will a Baldwin Estate 5103 or Emtek Cortina lever work as a substitute on a commercial classroom door?
Those are decorative residential sets and do not cover this function. The Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered in passage, privacy and handed half dummy versions, and the Emtek Cortina is a dummy pair only, so none of them provide keyed control of the outside lever. The Arrow RLX87SR is a commercial Grade 2 keyed cylindrical lever, non-handed, with an ANSI 4-7/8 inch by 1-1/4 inch strike.
