Cal-Royal ED500-5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Cal-Royal ED500 come in 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset?
One part covers both. The ED500 latch is adjustable between the 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset, so you do not have to measure the existing cross-bore centerline before you order. Round corner is the standard face; square corner and a drive-in adjustable version are also available. For a locksmith carrying stock, that means one deadbolt on the truck instead of two.
2) Do I have to order the Cal-Royal ED500 left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The ED500 is reversible for left and right hand doors, so the same part goes on either swing. That is what makes it practical to stock a single deadbolt for a whole property instead of splitting inventory by hand.
3) Will the Cal-Royal ED500 key alike with my existing Kwikset-keyed locks?
The ED500 ships with a Kwikset keyway and is re-keyable, including master keying and construction keying, so it can be brought onto an existing Kwikset-keyed system. If your building is on Schlage C, that keyway and Weiser are available on special factory order rather than off the shelf. Sort the keyway before you order, because it is the one thing on this lock you cannot adjust in the field.
4) Will the ED500 deadbolt latch into the strike that is already in my frame?
The bolt throws a full 1 inch, so it needs a strike pocket deep enough to take it. The ED500 comes with a 1 x 2-1/4 inch round corner full lip strike as standard; square corner is available, and there is an optional 1-1/4 x 3-5/8 inch security strike with 3 inch screws that reaches into the framing stud. On a replacement where the existing strike is a shallow residential plate, plan on swapping it. On a new install in a hollow metal frame, use the strike supplied.
5) Is a Grade 3 deadbolt like the Cal-Royal ED500 enough for a commercial building, or do I need Grade 1?
The ED500 meets ANSI A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 3 and Cal-Royal positions it as a commercial product, which suits multi-tenant residential, tenant unit doors, storage and back-of-house openings where the deadbolt is not cycled constantly. For a school corridor, a healthcare exterior, or any high-traffic entry where a spec sheet calls out Grade 1, go up: ZenSupply carries the Accentra D111 and the Delaney LM Series in Grade 1 cylinder x thumbturn, and the Design Hardware D1 Series in Grade 1 double cylinder. Grade 2 middle ground includes the Arrow DBX61 and the Dexter DB2000 single cylinder.
6) Single cylinder or double cylinder deadbolt for a tenant entry door?
The ED500 is single cylinder: key outside, thumbturn inside. That thumbturn is the ADA compliant ergonomic type, so it turns without pinching or tight grasping, which is what you want on an occupied unit and on any egress door where code will not accept a key on the inside. Double cylinder (key both sides) is only for glazed doors where someone could break the lite and reach the turn, and it is a life-safety decision on an occupied space. If you do need one, ZenSupply carries the Callan 210S in Grade 3 and the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder in Grade 2.
7) Is the ED500 a straight replacement for the deadbolt already on my door?
On a standard bored prep it usually is. The ED500 is a bored deadbolt with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thickness range, which covers the great majority of existing tubular deadbolt preps. Where it will not drop in: a mortise case pocket, a hook bolt or deadlatch prep on an aluminum storefront stile, or a small format interchangeable core opening. For those, look at a mortise deadbolt like the Dormakaba D900 small case, the International Door Closers DH-1821 hook bolt deadlock, or the Arrow E61 SFIC prep less core.
8) What deadbolt should be used instead of the Cal-Royal ED500 on a fire rated door?
The Cal-Royal ED500 carries ANSI A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 3 with optional UL listing on the single cylinder version. Where the submittal calls for a fire rated deadbolt outright, the Hager 3215 is a single cylinder Grade 2 deadbolt with a 1 inch throw carrying a fire rating and fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door range and the same 1 inch throw as the ED500. The Hager 3115 and Hager 3214 also carry fire ratings across that door thickness range, the 3214 in a double cylinder configuration.
9) What is the alternative to a keyed Cal-Royal ED500 when the door only needs to lock from the inside?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a keyed deadbolt, cylinder outside and thumbturn inside. Where no key is wanted, the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock, non-keyed, with a blank plate outside and a thumbturn inside, fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door range as the ED500. For an opening bolted from one face only, the Callan Model 205S is a Grade 3 one sided half-bore deadbolt, which cuts a shallower prep than a through-bored keyed unit.
10) What is a Grade 1 alternative to the Cal-Royal ED500 deadbolt for a high-traffic entry?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt in a cylinder x thumbturn function. For the same function at Grade 1, the Accentra D111 is a single cylinder deadbolt with a cylinder x thumbturn function that fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door thickness range the ED500 covers. The Dexter DB1000-SCT is also Grade 1 cylinder x thumbturn and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch doors, so it reaches slightly thicker doors. The Delaney LM Series 301702 is a Grade 1 single cylinder less core deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn, which suits an opening being keyed into an existing interchangeable core system.
11) The opening needs a key on both sides instead of a thumbturn - what replaces the Cal-Royal ED500?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a single cylinder deadbolt, keyed outside with an ADA thumbturn inside, so it will not serve an opening that must be keyed on both faces. For a double cylinder in the same Grade 3 class, the Callan Model 210S is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt and the Deltana 7312KA2 is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. At Grade 2, the Dexter DB2000-DCT is a double cylinder deadbolt fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same door range as the ED500, and the Delaney LU Series 320601 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt. Confirm local egress code before specifying a double cylinder on a required exit door.
12) Is there a deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway instead of the Cal-Royal ED500 Kwikset keyway?
The Cal-Royal ED500 ships with a Kwikset keyway, re-keyable for master and construction keying, with Weiser and Schlage C keyways available on special factory order. If the job is standardizing on Schlage C without a factory order, the Hager 3115 is a Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and a 6-pin cylinder. Both fit 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same range as the ED500. For a facility keyed on interchangeable cores, the Deltana CL200LAIC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt prepped for an interchangeable core, and the Arrow E61 26D IC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock with SFIC prep less core fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
13) The door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches - what deadbolt works where the Cal-Royal ED500 does not?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. On a thicker leaf, the Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock covering 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Deltana 7312KA2 is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt reaching 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. For a modest step up in single cylinder form, the Dexter DB1000-SCT is a Grade 1 cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-7/8 inch. Measure the leaf at the bore before ordering.
14) Which deadbolts look like a substitute for the Cal-Royal ED500 but will not drop into the same bored prep?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a bored deadbolt with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset for a standard cross bore. Several items carrying the word deadbolt take a different prep entirely. The Emtek 2050 and 2051 are European mortise deadbolts with an integrated roller latch, requiring a mortise pocket. The Dormakaba D900 is a small case mortise deadbolt. The Codelocks CL200 is a surface mounted deadbolt with key override, and the CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt. The Arrow 460 is not a lock at all but a mortise lock strike for latchbolt and deadbolt functions. The BEST 8T is a tubular deadbolt tube component rather than a complete lock, and the Baldwin 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer.
15) What replaces the Cal-Royal ED500 on a storefront or narrow stile door where a bored deadbolt will not fit?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a bored deadbolt needing a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset cross bore in a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door, which a narrow aluminum stile will not accept. For those openings the International Door Closers DH-1821 is a hook bolt deadlock with a flat faceplate, the DT-1851 is a long throw deadlatch lock, and the DL-4511 is a deadlatch lock, all mortised into the stile. The Detex DX Series is a hinge side locking deadbolt with multi-point security for openings needing bolts away from the lock edge, and the DynaLock 1300 Series is a heavy duty mortise electric deadbolt for access controlled doors.
16) How well does a Cal-Royal ED500 deadbolt hold up to someone attacking the bolt?
The bolt carries a hardened steel pin specifically to stop a saw blade cutting through it, and the body and cylinder are all metal rather than zinc-over-plastic internals. Combined with the 1 inch throw and the optional 1-1/4 x 3-5/8 inch security strike screwed with 3 inch screws into the framing, the common failure point moves from the bolt to the frame, which is where you should be spending on reinforcement anyway.
17) Can I put the Cal-Royal ED500 on doors during construction and re-key them at turnover?
Yes, that is exactly what the keying supports. The ED500 is re-keyable for both construction keying and master keying, so trades run on construction keys through the build and the cylinders get re-pinned to the permanent master system at handover without pulling the deadbolts off the doors.
18) What deadbolt sits between Grade 3 and Grade 1 with the same cylinder x thumbturn function as the Cal-Royal ED500?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is Grade 3 cylinder x thumbturn. At Grade 2 with the same function, the Dexter DB2000-SCT is a single cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, matching the ED500 door thickness range. The Arrow DBX61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn, and the Falcon D211 is a Grade 2 medium duty deadbolt with single cylinder operation in the D200 Series. The Callan Model 200S-G2 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with round trim.
19) What is the difference between the Cal-Royal ED500 and a classroom function deadbolt like the Falcon D111?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt: keyed outside, thumbturn inside, so anyone in the room can retract the bolt by hand. The Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt in the D100 Series with an adjustable backset, and the Falcon D211 is the Grade 2 medium duty classroom equivalent in the D200 Series. The Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder. Classroom function changes who can throw and retract the bolt, so it is specified where key control on the inside face matters rather than as a like-for-like swap.
20) Which deadbolt has a square trim instead of the round corner face on the Cal-Royal ED500?
The Cal-Royal ED500 ships with a round corner faceplate as standard, with a square corner available. Where a square profile is wanted throughout, the Callan Model 200S is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with square trim in the same cylinder x thumbturn function, so it matches the ED500 on both grade and function. The Bravura 310SC Elite is a Grade 2 contemporary square deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn, and the Bravura 910005 is a Grade 2 rectangle single cylinder deadbolt. The Brinks Mendocino E2402 is a contemporary square single cylinder deadbolt with a 4 way adjustable backset.
21) What else offers an adjustable backset like the Cal-Royal ED500 for stocking one part across mixed door preps?
The Cal-Royal ED500 uses a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch adjustable backset and is reversible for left and right handed doors, so one part covers both common bore centers. The Brinks Raleigh E2401 is a transitional round single cylinder deadbolt with a 4 way adjustable backset, and the Brinks Mendocino E2402 is the contemporary square version with the same 4 way adjustable backset, both in cylinder x thumbturn. The Falcon D111 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with an adjustable backset for the same stocking benefit at a higher grade.
22) Is there a keypad or credential version to use instead of the Cal-Royal ED500 mechanical deadbolt?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a mechanical keyed deadbolt with an ADA thumbturn. Where the site wants codes or credentials instead of cut keys, the Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote. The Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in a brushed steel finish, and the CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt. For multihousing credential systems, the Dormakaba Nova-D is an RFID smart electronic deadbolt and the Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override. These change the door prep and add a power source, so they are a re-spec rather than a drop-in.
23) The entry needs a deadbolt and a knob or lever that work together - what covers that instead of the Cal-Royal ED500?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a deadbolt only, so a separate latchset is needed to complete a keyed entry. The Falcon H2101 is a Grade 2 entrance interconnected lock with a single cylinder deadbolt, combining the deadbolt and latch in one assembly so a single turn of the inside lever retracts both. The Baldwin Estates 8011 is a contemporary 1-5/8 inch double cylinder deadbolt in an entrance function for openings keyed on both faces.
24) What single cylinder deadbolt carries an extra heavy duty rating where the Cal-Royal ED500 is specified as commercial Grade 3?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a commercial Grade 3 deadbolt built to ANSI A156.2 Series 4000 with an all metal body and cylinder and a hardened steel pin against saw cutting. Where the spec calls for a heavier classification, the Design Hardware D1 Series is an extra heavy duty Grade 1 deadbolt in a double cylinder function for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Deltana CL200LM is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt in cylinder x thumbturn, keeping the ED500 function at a higher grade, and the Kaba Ilco 4500 Series is a heavy duty professional deadbolt.
25) What is the difference between the Cal-Royal ED500 and a cylindrical deadlock like the Corbin Russwin DL3211?
The Cal-Royal ED500 is a cylinder x thumbturn deadbolt, keyed outside with a thumbturn inside. The Corbin Russwin DL3211 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock in a cylinder by blank configuration for 1-3/4 inch doors, meaning the inside face carries a blank plate rather than a turn. The DL2211 is the Grade 1 cylinder by blank deadlock in the DL2200 Series for 1-3/4 inch doors in a classroom function. A blank inside face means the bolt cannot be retracted by hand from inside, so it is chosen for storage and secured rooms rather than as a swap for a thumbturn unit on an occupied space.
26) What is a fixed 2-3/4 inch backset deadbolt to match existing bores instead of the adjustable Cal-Royal ED500?
The Cal-Royal ED500 uses an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, which suits mixed bores but is set at install. Where every door in the building is already bored at 2-3/4 inches, the Deltana CL200LA is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a fixed 2-3/4 inch backset in cylinder x thumbturn, and the CL200LAIC is the same lock prepped for an interchangeable core. Where the bores are 2-3/8 inches, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset in cylinder x thumbturn.
