Calibre Door Closers LS1001-118-AL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What cylinder backset do I order for a Calibre LS1001 deadlock in an aluminum storefront door?
The LS1001 flat faceplate deadlock is offered in 31/32 inch and 1-1/8 inch cylinder backsets. The backset is the distance from the face of the stile to the center of the cylinder hole, so measure the existing cylinder hole on the door before ordering. Narrow aluminum stiles usually take the 31/32 inch; the 1-1/8 inch suits a deeper stile. Get it wrong and the cylinder will not line up with the prep already in the door.
2) What cylinder does the Calibre LS1001 deadlock take?
A standard 1-5/32 inch mortise cylinder, key or thumbturn, with an AR MS-type cam. That is the common storefront mortise cylinder, so if you are keying a building to one keyway you can order the LS1001 bare and drop in cylinders that match the rest of the openings. The cam is the part that matters: a standard cam will not throw this bolt.
3) Do I need to specify handing on the Calibre LS1001 deadlock?
No handing to specify. The LS1001 is field reversible, so one part covers left and right hand openings. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one item number on the shelf instead of two.
4) Is a deadlock like the Calibre LS1001 the right choice, or do I need a latch lock?
A deadlock is bolt only, thrown by key or thumbturn, with no latch and no lever or paddle. Use it where the door is pulled shut and locked deliberately, which is the normal storefront and entrance case. If you need the door to latch on its own every time it closes, or you need a handle to retract the bolt on egress, a deadlock is the wrong type and you want a latching mortise lock or an exit device instead.
5) How secure is the bolt on the Calibre LS1001 deadlock against being sawn?
The bolt is 5-ply laminated steel with a hardened roller pin set in a case hardened center ply. The roller pin spins under a hacksaw blade rather than letting it bite, which is the standard defence against a bolt attack through the gap between a pair of doors.
6) What else do I have to order with a Calibre LS1001 deadlock to finish the job?
The cylinder is a separate line. Plan on a 1-5/32 inch mortise cylinder with an AR MS-type cam, keyed or thumbturn depending on which side needs key control, plus a strike suited to the frame or, on a pair of doors, the mating stile. Order the cylinder in the same backset family you selected so the cylinder length reaches the cam.
7) What finishes does the Calibre LS1001 deadlock come in, and will it match my existing storefront?
Two finishes are orderable: AL painted satin aluminum and DU painted storefront bronze. Both are the standard storefront colors, so the faceplate blends with clear anodized or dark bronze aluminum framing. Both finishes are available in either the 31/32 inch or the 1-1/8 inch backset.
8) Is the Calibre LS1001 deadlock rated for commercial traffic or is it a residential lock?
Commercial. The LS1001 is a mortise deadlock built for commercial entrance doors, not a residential bore-in deadbolt, and it needs a mortise pocket cut into the stile rather than a 2-1/8 inch cross bore.
