Cal-Royal SLS234-26D – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Cal-Royal SLS234 spring latch work in a door bored for a 2-3/4 inch backset?
That's exactly what the SLS234 is cut for. It's a 2-3/4 inch backset spring latch, which is the wider of the two standard commercial backsets (2-3/8 inch is the other). Measure from the door edge to the center of the bore: if that comes out at 2-3/4 inches, this latch lines up with the existing prep. If your prep measures 2-3/8 inches, this one will not reach and you need the shorter-backset SL latch instead.
2) Can I use the Cal-Royal SLS234 latch in a lockset that isn't a Cal-Royal SL Series?
No. The SLS234 is built as an SL Design latch and mates with Cal-Royal SL Series lock bodies. The retractor geometry and hub engagement are matched to that family, so it is not a general-purpose replacement latch for another manufacturer's lever or knob set, even one with the same 2-3/4 inch backset. Identify the lock body as SL Series before ordering this part.
3) What should I use on a commercial door that only needs to stay shut, not lock?
A roller latch handles that case. The ABH 1890 comes with a full lip cast strike and a 5/16 inch adjustable projection, and the ABH 1895 comes with a T strike and a 1/2 inch adjustable projection, so the choice between them is the strike style the frame will take and how much projection you need to tune the closing tension. Both are push-open hardware. A Cal-Royal SLS234 spring latch is the opposite specification: it is an SL Design latch cut to a 2-3/4 inch backset for a commercial SL Series lock body, and it needs that lock body to retract it.
4) What finishes does the Cal-Royal SLS234 spring latch come in?
Three: US3 bright brass, US26D satin chrome, and US10B oil-rubbed satin bronze. On a latch, the finish you see once the door is hung is the faceplate on the door edge, so match it to the lock trim already on the opening. For a fleet of doors running satin chrome levers, US26D keeps the edge consistent; US10B is the match for dark bronze trim.
5) Is a spring latch the right choice, or do I need a roller latch or a deadlatch?
A spring latch like the Cal-Royal SLS234 is the latching component inside a keyed or lever lockset: it retracts when the lever or key turns and springs back into the strike. If you instead want a door that pushes open and closed with no lever action, a roller latch is the part you want, such as the ABH 1890 Series roller latch with full lip cast strike or the ABH 1895 Series with T strike and 1/2 inch adjustable projection. Roller latches hold a door shut by friction and are not a security latch. Pick the spring latch when the opening has a working lockset; pick the roller when the door only needs to stay closed.
6) I need a classroom-function mortise opening. Does the Cal-Royal SLS234 cover that, or do I need something else?
The SLS234 is a spring latch component, not a lock function. It supplies the 2-3/4 inch backset latching part inside a commercial SL Series lockset and carries no function code of its own. If the opening is a Corbin Russwin 2000 Series classroom mortise lever lock body, the ACSI 8500 Gemini operator is built for that specific lock body and classroom function. Those are different hardware families, so specify the lock body first and then the latch that matches it.
7) Is the Cal-Royal SLS234 spring latch suitable for commercial traffic, or is it a residential part?
It's a commercial part. The SLS234 is built for commercial SL Design lockset applications, the kind of openings you find in offices, schools, healthcare facilities, retail, warehouses, and multi-tenant residential buildings. For a property manager standardizing spare parts across a portfolio, keeping a few of these on the shelf in the finish that matches your lever trim covers the most common latch failure on SL Series openings.
