BEST 7KC30N15D-S3-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the function of 7KC series passage lever locks?
Passage function lever locks are non-locking. They provide free access through the door in both directions. Commonly used for hallways, closets, and interior doors that do not require privacy or security.
2) What door thickness do these Grade 2 lever locks fit?
Most 7KC series locks accommodate standard door thickness from 1-3/8" to 1-3/4". Some models adjust up to 2-1/4". Check the manufacturer template for your specific door preparation requirements.
3) How do I determine the correct handing for installation?
Passage function locks are typically reversible and do not require specific handing. The lever can be installed to operate from either side. Follow manufacturer instructions for proper lever orientation during installation.
4) What finishes are available for 7KC series lever locks?
Common finishes include satin chrome, polished brass, satin brass, oil-rubbed bronze, and brushed nickel. Finish availability varies by manufacturer. Select finishes that match existing hardware for consistent appearance.
5) What does Grade 2 medium duty rating mean?
Grade 2 locks meet ANSI/BHMA standards for medium duty commercial use. They provide durability for moderate traffic applications. Suitable for offices, schools, and light commercial installations where heavy duty Grade 1 locks are not required.
6) Do these locks meet building code requirements?
Grade 2 lever locks typically meet most building codes for interior doors. Verify local code requirements for your specific application. Some codes require specific lever shapes or operating force limits for accessibility compliance.
7) What parts are included with the lever lock?
Standard packages include both levers, latch mechanism, strike plate, and mounting hardware. Some models include multiple strike plate options for different door frame preparations. Check product specifications for complete contents.
8) What door preparation is required for installation?
Requires standard 2-1/8" cross bore and 1" edge bore. Strike pocket depth typically 1" minimum. Use manufacturer template for precise hole locations. Pre-hung doors often come with proper preparation completed.
9) How do I maintain and adjust lever locks?
Clean regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners that damage finishes. Lubricate moving parts annually with graphite or light machine oil. Adjust strike plate alignment if latch does not engage properly.
10) Are there compatible models within the 7KC series?
7KC series typically includes passage, privacy, entry, and classroom functions with matching lever designs. This allows consistent appearance throughout a building while providing different security levels as needed. Check our door hardware section for complete series options.
11) Can these locks be used in exterior applications?
Passage locks provide no locking function and are not recommended for exterior doors requiring security. Use entry function locks for exterior applications. Weather resistance varies by finish and manufacturer specifications.
12) What lever backset options are available?
Standard backsets are 2-3/8" and 2-3/4" from door edge to center of cross bore. Most locks include adjustable latch mechanisms for both backsets. Measure existing door preparation before ordering to ensure proper fit.
