Cal-Royal CAL02-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the storeroom function on the Cal-Royal CAL02 actually do at the door?
Storeroom function means the outside lever is always locked. Entry from outside is by key only, and the inside lever always retracts the latch for free egress. The CAL02 uses a dead locking latch bolt operated by lever from either side except when both levers are locked by key, so it suits storage rooms, mechanical rooms, and tenant spaces you never want left unsecured.
2) Can I key the Cal-Royal CAL02 into my existing master key system?
Most likely. It ships with a 6 pin solid brass C keyway and accepts Schlage E and C-K, Russwin D1-2-3-4, Corbin 59/60, Corbin-Russwin L4, Sargent LA-LB-LC, Falcon and Weiser E, Arrow A, Yale 8 and GA, and Kwikset keyways. Medeco, Assa, Kaba, and Cal-Royal HSK high security cylinders also fit if the building runs a restricted system.
3) Is the Cal-Royal CAL02 acceptable for a Grade 1 spec on a school or hospital job?
It meets or exceeds BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000, Grade 1, is BHMA certified with a UL Listed latch bolt, is ADA compliant, and meets the Buy American Act. That covers the usual line items on an institutional hardware schedule for offices, schools, hospitals, hotels, and multi-tenant residential.
4) Should I use a storeroom lock like the CAL02 or an entrance/office function lock?
Pick by who controls the door. The CAL02 is storeroom: outside lever locked at all times, key entry only, no way for an occupant to leave it unlocked. If staff need to unlock the outside lever for the day, go to an entrance or office function instead, such as the Falcon K501 Grade 1 entrance lock with push-turnbutton, or TownSteel's CDC-109 clutched or CE/CEI-109 non-clutched Grade 1 entry/office locksets.
5) My door is 2-1/4 inches thick. Will the Cal-Royal CAL02 work?
No. The CAL02 tops out at 2 inch door thickness. For a 2-1/4 inch door, the Falcon K501 Grade 1 cylindrical lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, though note it is an entrance function with push-turnbutton rather than storeroom, so the security behavior is different.
6) I have a 2-1/4 inch thick door - will the Cal-Royal CAL02 work?
The Cal-Royal CAL02 covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick, so a 2-1/4 inch door falls outside that range. The Falcon K501 Grade 1 cylindrical lock is rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, though it is an entrance function with a push-turnbutton rather than a storeroom function, so confirm the function on the hardware schedule before substituting.
7) What is the closest Grade 1 cylindrical alternative to the Cal-Royal CAL02 if the opening needs an entrance function with a push-button instead of storeroom?
The Cal-Royal CAL02 Calypso Series is a Grade 1 storeroom lock, meaning the outside lever stays locked and is retracted by key while the inside lever always gives free egress. If the opening instead needs an occupant to lock and unlock the outside lever from the inside, the Falcon K501 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock in the K Series with an entrance function and a push-turnbutton, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick against the CAL02 range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. Storeroom is the usual choice for mechanical, electrical, and janitor closets where the door must never be left unsecured; entrance with a turnbutton suits offices and tenant suites.
8) For a behavioral health or detention opening, is the Cal-Royal CAL02 the right lock or should I be looking at ligature resistant trim?
The Cal-Royal CAL02 is a commercial Grade 1 storeroom cylindrical lock with zinc-cast levers plated to match wrought brass, bronze, or stainless steel trim - conventional lever trim that is not designed for ligature resistance. For patient rooms and similar risk areas, the TownSteel CRX-A series uses stainless steel ligature resistant arch trim; the CRX-A-41 in that series is a Grade 1 heavy duty single dummy for 1-3/4 inch doors, so it is trim for a push or pull side rather than a latching storeroom lock. Specify the CAL02 for standard commercial storerooms and the CRX-A family where the trim profile itself is part of the safety spec.
9) Can the Cal-Royal CAL02 be used where access needs to be released remotely from a front desk?
No - the Cal-Royal CAL02 is a mechanical keyed single cylinder storeroom lock, so entry is by key at the door only. Where an opening has to be unlocked from a remote station, the BEST 9KW Series is a heavy duty electromechanical cylindrical lock with remote control operation. A common pairing is the CAL02 on back-of-house storerooms and the 9KW on the one or two openings that need to be released from a desk or access control panel.
10) Do I have to specify handing for the Cal-Royal CAL02 storeroom lock?
No. The solid brass latch bolt is reversible for right hand or left hand doors, so one lock covers either swing and you can stock a single part number across a building.
11) Does the Cal-Royal CAL02 come in an interchangeable core version for a BEST system?
Yes. Interchangeable core locks accept compatible 6 or 7 pin cores in BEST, Falcon, and Arrow formats, and can be ordered combinated or uncombinated with factory keying, control key, and master key options. That matters if your maintenance staff rekeys in house rather than pulling cylinders.
12) Is there a CAL02 option for a pair of fire doors?
Yes. Beyond the standard 2-3/4 inch backset, the CAL02 is offered with a 2-3/4 inch anti-friction latch with 3/4 inch throw intended for pairs of fire doors, plus 2-3/8 inch, 3-3/4 inch, and 5 inch backsets for wide-stile or unusual door prep. The anti-friction latch is what lets the leaf close cleanly against an astragal.
13) Is there a clutched alternative to the CAL02 for a high-abuse door?
The CAL02 lever is not clutched. Where vandalism or forced lever torque is the concern, TownSteel's CEC/CECI-109 is a Grade 1 clutched extra heavy duty cylindrical lockset and the CDC-109 is a Grade 1 clutched option, both entry/office function. For psychiatric or detention-style openings, TownSteel's CRX-A-41 is a ligature resistant stainless arch trim lockset, but it is single dummy, so it provides no latching at all.
14) Can the Cal-Royal CAL02 be operated by card reader or remotely released?
No. The CAL02 is a mechanical, key-operated single cylinder lock with no electrified option. If the opening needs remote release or access control integration, look at an electromechanical cylindrical lock such as the BEST 9KW Series with remote control operation.
15) What is the difference between the Cal-Royal CAL02 and a clutched cylindrical lockset like the TownSteel CDC-109?
The Cal-Royal CAL02 is a Grade 1 storeroom lock whose outside lever is fixed until a key retracts the 1/2 inch throw latch bolt. The TownSteel CDC-109 is a Grade 1 heavy duty clutched cylindrical lockset in the CDC Series with an entry/office function - the clutch lets the outside lever rotate freely when locked so force applied to the lever is not transmitted to the internal chassis. TownSteel also lists the CEC/CECI-109 in the CEC Series as a clutched extra heavy duty entry/office lockset and the CE/CEI-109 in the CE Series as the non-clutched extra heavy duty version of the same function. Choose on function first - storeroom versus entry/office - then on whether a clutch is required for abuse-prone doors.
16) Which Grade 1 cylindrical locks carry a fire rating for a labeled door opening?
The Falcon K501 Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock carries a fire rating. The Cal-Royal CAL02 addresses fire-rated pairs a different way: it is offered with an optional 2-3/4 inch backset anti-friction latch with a 3/4 inch throw specifically for pairs of fire doors, alongside its standard 1/2 inch throw UL Listed latch bolt. For a labeled opening, match the latch option and strike to what the door label and hardware schedule call for.
17) What finishes does the Cal-Royal CAL02 come in, and will it match the rest of my building?
Six finishes: US3 polished brass, US4 satin brass, US10 satin bronze, US10B antique bronze oiled, US26 polished chrome, and 26D satin chrome. Exposed trim is wrought brass, bronze, or stainless steel, and the levers are zinc castings plated to match the trim finish, so the lever and rose read the same across a run of doors.
