Cal-Royal DK94-US26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size hole do I need to drill for the Cal-Royal DK94 knocker viewer?
The DK94 uses a 9/16 inch bore. If the door already has a standard viewer hole of that diameter you can mount it directly; a smaller existing hole needs to be opened up, and a larger one will not be covered properly by the barrel. The trim plate itself measures 2-3/8 x 5-1/4 inches, so it will hide minor prep marks around the bore.
2) Does the Cal-Royal DK94 meet a recognized door hardware standard for a spec job?
It conforms to ANSI/BHMA A156.16, type L23151, which is the auxiliary hardware standard covering knockers and viewers. If your submittal calls out an A156.16 listed knocker/viewer combination, the DK94 answers that line directly.
3) What is the closest alternative to the Cal-Royal DK94 door knocker with a built-in viewer?
The Delaney 4" Door Knocker with 160 Degree Viewer, part number DLY-400x10, is the nearest equivalent concept: a knocker plate with an integrated peephole in one unit, the same way the DK94 pairs a die cast knocker with a 180 degree viewer. The DK94 plate measures 2-3/8" x 5-1/4" with a 9/16" bore and covers doors 1-3/8" to 1-3/4" thick, and it conforms to ANSI/BHMA A156.16 L23151. Delaney identifies its unit by a 4" knocker series and a 160 degree viewing angle, so confirm the plate footprint against your existing door prep before swapping one for the other.
4) I need a knocker and viewer unit with a larger plate than the Cal-Royal DK94 - what should I use?
Look at the Delaney 6" Door Knocker with 160 Degree Viewer, DLY-4001, which is built on a 6" knocker series rather than the DK94's 2-3/8" x 5-1/4" plate. A larger plate is useful when you are covering an old knocker footprint or a filled viewer hole on a replacement door. If you are matching to a spec that calls out ANSI/BHMA A156.16 L23151, the DK94 is the unit that carries that conformance.
5) Does the Cal-Royal DK94 come with mounting screws, or do I need to order fasteners separately?
Screws are in the bag. Each DK94 ships individually poly-bagged with its screws, so a single unit is everything you need for one door once the 9/16 inch bore is drilled. For a multi-unit turnover job that means no separate fastener line on the order.
6) Is a knocker with a built-in viewer better than installing a separate peephole and knocker?
One combined unit means one 9/16 inch bore instead of two separate preps, one set of screws, and one finish to match. The DK94 puts a 180 degree wide-angle viewer inside the knocker body, which is the practical choice on apartment and multi-tenant entry doors where you want both functions but do not want a second hole drilled. Separate components only make sense if you need the viewer at a different height than the knocker, for example to meet an accessible sight line for a seated occupant.
7) I have to match existing finishes across a building - how does the Cal-Royal DK94 compare to the Delaney knocker-viewers on finish selection?
The DK94 is offered in six architectural finishes: US3 polished brass, US5 antique brass, US10B antique bronze oiled, US15 satin nickel, US15A satin nickel oxidized, and US26D satin chrome, which is the range property managers usually need to match lever and lockset hardware already hanging on the other doors. The Delaney comparables, DLY-4001 and DLY-400x10, are identified by their knocker size and viewer angle, so specify the finish you need with those by name rather than assuming a matching US code.
8) Do the Delaney knocker-viewers give the same viewing angle as the Cal-Royal DK94?
No. The DK94 uses a 180 degree wide-angle viewer, while both Delaney units, the 4" DLY-400x10 and the 6" DLY-4001, are specified at 160 degrees. For a multi-tenant corridor where a resident needs to see someone standing tight against the door frame, the wider 180 degree optic of the DK94 is the relevant difference; for a standard entry where the approach is straight on, either viewing angle covers the approach.
9) Can I substitute a plain door viewer for the Cal-Royal DK94 if the door already has a knocker?
Only if the existing knocker is staying and you just need optics. The DK94 is a single combined unit, a die cast knocker plate with the 180 degree viewer built into it and a 9/16" bore through the door, so it replaces knocker and peephole together with one prep. A standalone viewer does not carry the knocker plate and will not conceal an old knocker footprint. If you want the combined format in a different plate size, the Delaney 4" DLY-400x10 and 6" DLY-4001 are the two-in-one alternatives.
10) Is the Cal-Royal DK94 durable enough for high-traffic apartment or office entry doors?
It is a die cast unit rated commercial, and Cal-Royal lists it for office buildings, schools, healthcare, retail, multi-tenant residential, and government facilities. Die cast body construction is what carries the repeated knocker impact in daily use, which is the wear point on this kind of hardware.
11) Can I standardize the DK94 across a whole building and keep the finish looking consistent?
Yes, and it is a common use for it. One model number, DK94, covers 1-3/8 through 1-3/4 inch doors, so a mixed-thickness building does not need two part numbers. Pick one of the six finishes for the entire property. Cal-Royal publishes finish maintenance and care guidance for keeping plated and oiled finishes like US10B and US15A looking uniform over time.
