Cal-Royal CGN05-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Cal-Royal CGN05 storeroom lock fit a 1-3/8 inch door?
Yes. The CGN05 covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors as standard, so it works on both older interior leaves and standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors without a special order. Thicker doors, 2 inch to 2-1/4 inch, are handled on request. That range covers most wood and hollow metal openings you will meet in a commercial building.
2) Will the Cal-Royal CGN05 latch into the strike already in my frame?
It depends what is prepped. The CGN05 has a 1/2 inch deadlocking latch throw and comes with a 4-7/8 x 1-1/4 inch ASA/ANSI strike with a curved lip cut to ANSI A115.2 frame prep. If your hollow metal frame is already prepped to A115.2, which most commercial frames are, the supplied strike drops straight into the existing cutout. If the frame carries a small T-strike or a full lip strike from a residential lockset, you will be enlarging or filling the frame prep to take the ASA strike.
3) Can I put the Cal-Royal CGN05 on a fire rated stairwell or corridor door?
Yes. The CGN05 is fire rated and UL/cUL listed up to 3 hours, which covers the ratings used on stair enclosures, corridor doors and shaft openings. The storeroom function suits that use too: the outside lever is always fixed and the latch is deadlocking, so the door stays secure and self-latching without anyone needing to lock it behind them.
4) What is the difference between a storeroom lock and an entrance or office lock?
Storeroom, which is what the Cal-Royal CGN05 is (ANSI F80), keeps the outside lever locked at all times. Key retracts the latch from outside, the inside lever always turns free for egress, and there is no button or turn to leave the door unlocked. Use it on mechanical rooms, IT closets, supply rooms and stairwells. If you need the door to stay unlocked during business hours, that is an entrance/office function instead: the Falcon K501 with a push-turnbutton, or the TownSteel CDC-109 and CEC-109 entry/office locks, all Grade 1 heavy duty. Ordering storeroom for a front office door means someone stands there with a key every morning.
5) Can I key the Cal-Royal CGN05 into my existing Schlage C master key system?
Yes. The CGN05 comes with a 6-pin solid brass cylinder in Schlage C keyway as standard, so it pins into an existing SC1/C-keyway system directly. It also accepts Medeco, Assa, Kaba and Cal-Royal HSK high security cylinders if the building is on a restricted keyway. The outside lever is key removable, which means re-keying or swapping the cylinder is done at the door instead of pulling the whole lock.
6) Does the Cal-Royal CGN05 take a BEST or Falcon interchangeable core?
It does. The CGN05 accepts compatible 6 or 7 pin small format cores from BEST, FALCON and ARROW, and large format cylinders for SCHLAGE, CORBIN/RUSSWIN, SARGENT and YALE. If your facility already stocks SFIC cores and a control key, you can core the lock into the existing system rather than starting a second keyway. Order the core to match your system; the lock itself is single cylinder.
7) What is the closest Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical lock to the Cal-Royal CGN05 if the opening needs an entrance function instead of storeroom?
The Cal-Royal CGN05 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom lock, so the outside lever stays fixed and is released only by key. If the opening needs a lever that can be left unlocked for normal traffic, the Falcon K501 is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance lock with a push-turnbutton, and the TownSteel CDC-109 is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance/office clutched cylindrical lockset. Both are fire rated in the same heavy duty class as the CGN05 in the case of the K501, which also carries a fire rating.
8) Can the TownSteel CRX-A-41 be used in place of a Cal-Royal CGN05?
No. The Cal-Royal CGN05 is a keyed Grade 1 storeroom lock with a deadlocking latchbolt. The TownSteel CRX-A-41 is a single dummy trim, a Grade 1 ligature resistant arch trim cylindrical lockset with no latch and no key function, used for pull-side trim on an inactive leaf. It also fits a 1-3/4 inch door only, where the CGN05 spans 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
9) Do I need to specify handing for the Cal-Royal CGN05, and will it hold up on a high traffic door?
No handing to call out. The levers are non-handed, so one lock covers left and right hand openings and you can stock a single part across a building. On traffic, it is Grade 1 heavy duty to BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000, with a cold rolled steel housing and a precision cast steel retractor. The clutch is the part that matters in a school or dorm: in the locked position the outside lever spins free without pulling the latch, so someone hanging on it does not snap the spindle.
10) What finishes does the Cal-Royal CGN05 Genesys lever come in for matching other doors in a building?
Four: US3 polished brass, US10B antique bronze oiled, US26 polished chrome, and US26D satin chrome. US26D is the usual choice for commercial and institutional work because it matches the satin chrome closers, hinges and exit hardware already hanging in most buildings. The lever is 4-3/4 inches full length on a 3-1/2 inch rose with concealed mounting screws, so the trim footprint stays consistent across a floor.
11) What is a Grade 1 heavy duty alternative to the Cal-Royal CGN05 for a psychiatric or behavioral health door?
The CGN05 is a standard commercial lever and is not a ligature resistant design. For behavioral health openings, the TownSteel CRX-A series is the direction to go: the CRX-A-41 is a Grade 1 heavy duty stainless steel ligature resistant arch trim cylindrical lockset, listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. That one is a single dummy, so specify the CRX-A in the locking function the room needs. Keep the CGN05 for back of house, mechanical and storage doors in the same facility.
12) I need a Grade 1 cylindrical lock on a 2 inch thick door. Is the Cal-Royal CGN05 the right pick?
Not off the shelf. The CGN05 is built for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, with 2 to 2-1/4 inch handled only as a special request. If you need a thicker door covered by a standard catalog item, the Falcon K501 is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated cylindrical lock listed from 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches, though it is an entrance function with a push-turnbutton rather than a storeroom lock, so the locking behavior is different.
13) What is the difference between the Cal-Royal CGN05 clutch and the TownSteel CE-109?
The Cal-Royal CGN05 uses a clutch so the outside lever free-turns in the locked position without retracting the latch. The TownSteel CE-109 is a Grade 1 non-clutched extra heavy duty entrance/office cylindrical lockset, so its lever is fixed rather than free-spinning when locked. TownSteel also offers the CEC-109, a Grade 1 clutched extra heavy duty entrance/office lockset, if a clutched lever is what the opening calls for in that series.
14) We are standardizing a building on one Grade 1 lockset. Which of the Cal-Royal CGN05 and the TownSteel CE-109 covers a fire rated opening?
The Cal-Royal CGN05 carries a fire rating and is UL/cUL listed up to 3 hours, so it can go on rated openings in the same building as unrated ones. Among the Grade 1 heavy duty peers, the Falcon K501 is also fire rated. The TownSteel CE-109 and CEC-109 are Grade 1 extra heavy duty entrance/office locksets, which is a different function from the CGN05 keyed storeroom lever, so a mixed standard would put a different lever behavior on those doors.
15) I want to unlock a storeroom door remotely instead of with a key. What are my options?
The Cal-Royal CGN05 is a mechanical lock only, keyed from outside with no electric option. If the door needs to be released from a desk or an access control panel, look at the BEST 9KW Series, a heavy duty electromechanical cylindrical lock with remote control operation. That is a different install, since it needs power to the door, but it is the same lock format going into the same 161 cylindrical prep.
