Callan AH5011 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Callan Asheville passage leverset fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The Asheville passage lever is built for doors 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch, so it covers both older interior slabs and standard 1-3/4 inch doors. Bore prep is a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, which is the standard prep on almost every pre-bored door, and the backset adjusts between 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch so you do not have to know which one your door was drilled for before you order.
2) Do I need to order the Callan Asheville lever handed, left or right?
No handing to specify. The Asheville lever is fully reversible in the field for left or right hand doors, so one part number covers every opening in the building. For a property manager buying in quantity that means no sorting at the door and no wrong-hand returns.
3) What is the difference between a passage lever and a privacy lever for a bedroom or bathroom?
A passage lever like the Callan Asheville has no lock at all, it turns freely from both sides. That is what you want on a hallway, a closet, or a laundry door. For a bedroom or bath you need a privacy function with a push button or turn inside, such as the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever or the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever. If the door needs a key, the passage set is the wrong choice entirely.
4) Will the Callan Asheville latch drop into my existing strike plate?
The Asheville comes with a 1/2 inch throw latch and a round corner faceplate. A 1/2 inch throw is the standard residential latch projection, so it will engage a strike already set for a typical passage or privacy set. Watch the faceplate corner: if the mortise in your door edge was cut for a square corner faceplate, the round corner latch will leave a gap at the corners of the pocket.
5) Is a Grade 3 lever like the Callan Asheville strong enough for an apartment building or office corridor?
Grade 3 is a residential duty rating, and the Asheville is catalogued for residential use. It suits apartment interiors, closets, and unit hallways. For a commercial corridor, a school, or anywhere with heavy daily traffic, step up: the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever, the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever, and the Hager 2510 Withnell is a Grade 2 passage lever. Those are the openings where a Grade 3 set will wear out early.
6) Will the Callan Asheville work on a 2 inch thick door?
No. The Asheville tops out at 1-3/4 inch door thickness. For a thicker slab, the Hager 2510 passage lever covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch and the Falcon K101 covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch. Measure the door edge before ordering, because a lever spindle that is short by a quarter inch will not engage.
7) Which passage lever is fire rated instead of the Callan Asheville?
For a rated opening, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers and carries a fire rating, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage/closet lever is Grade 1 vandal resistant and carries a fire rating for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset that meets ADA requirements and is fully reversible for left or right hand applications.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Callan Asheville passage leverset in a Grade 2 commercial lock?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset for hall and closet openings. For the same passage function in a Grade 2 cylindrical lever, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lever lock with a non-handed design, and the Hager 2510 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lever with the Withnell lever, listed for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick. The Arrow GL01 is also a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lock with the Sierra lever, non-keyed, listed for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, so it covers thicker doors but not the 1-3/8 inch slabs the Asheville handles.
9) The Callan Asheville is Grade 3 - what passage lever should go on a high traffic school or hospital corridor instead?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 residential passage leverset. For institutional corridor traffic, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, and fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage lever with pressure release technology, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet cylindrical lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. The Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset with a flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) What Grade 3 lever matches the Callan Asheville passage set on a residential job?
The Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever set is a Grade 3 passage lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the same door thickness range the Callan Asheville AH5011 covers. Both are passage function, so neither locks. If the opening also needs a keyed entry lever at the same grade, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Master Lock RL01 is a Grade 3 return style keyed entry lever.
11) I need a lock for a bathroom, not a hallway - what takes the place of the Callan Asheville passage lever?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is passage function, free turning on both sides with no locking, so it will not serve a bath or bedroom. For privacy function, the Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy lever set is Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose covers the same opening in the Estate trim.
12) Does the Callan Asheville lever meet ADA requirements for accessible door hardware?
Yes, the Asheville is stated to meet Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. A lever is what gets you there: it operates without grasping, pinching, or twisting the wrist, which a knob cannot do. If you are replacing knobs in a unit to satisfy an accessibility complaint, this is the swap.
13) How far does the Callan Asheville lever stick out from the door face?
Projection is 1-7/8 inches from the door face. That matters where the door swings against a wall, a cabinet run, or a second door in a tight closet, and it is the number to check against your door stop location so the lever, not the door, is what hits first.
14) What is the Callan Asheville lever made of, and will the satin nickel match my other door hardware?
The Asheville is zinc bodied and finished in US15 satin nickel, which is the standard designation for satin nickel across the trade. If your existing hinges, stops, and other levers are marked US15, this matches. It ships in satin nickel only, so a building being standardized on a different finish should be specified elsewhere.
15) I need a matching lever for a closet door that does not latch at all, just a pull. Is a passage set right?
No. A passage set still has a working latch and spring. For a door held shut by a ball catch, magnet, or roller, or for the inactive leaf of a pair, you want a dummy lever with no latch mechanism, such as the BEST 7KC single dummy trim, the Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy, or the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy in left or right hand. Ordering a passage set for that opening leaves you cutting a latch pocket you do not need.
16) What is a comparable Grade 3 passage lever to the Callan Asheville if I want another brand?
The closest straight equivalent is the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever, also Grade 3 passage function and rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range as the Asheville. If you want a step up in duty without going commercial, the Bravura Atlanta, Orlando, and Tampa passage leversets are Grade 2, with Tampa carrying square trim rather than the round rose.
17) What keyed lever pairs with the Callan Asheville passage set on the same job?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is passage only and does not lock. For the keyed openings on the same run, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Asheville uses an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, so it meets either prep.
18) What is a keyless keypad alternative to a passage lever like the Callan Asheville?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a mechanical passage leverset with no locking function. If the opening needs code entry that can also be left in passage, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock has a passage function and is ADA compliant for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch, the Lockey 2835DC adds double combination in the same door thickness range, and the Lockey 1150 is a heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination and passage function for 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. The Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock.
19) What passage lever is an alternative to the Callan Asheville with a different trim shape?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset in US15 satin nickel. Among Grade 2 passage leversets with round trim, the Bravura Atlanta and the Bravura Orlando are both round trim passage leversets, and the Bravura Miramar is a round trim passage leverset in US4 satin brass. For a square rose instead, the Bravura Tampa is a Grade 2 passage leverset with square trim.
20) What is the difference between the Callan Asheville passage lever and the Design Hardware J75?
The Design Hardware J75 is a Grade 2 passage lever lockset with a flat lever in the J Series and is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a Grade 3 passage leverset made of zinc, fully reversible for left or right hand, with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. Within Design Hardware, the X75 is the Grade 1 version of the same flat lever passage set.
21) What entry lever should be used on the exterior door when the interior doors get the Callan Asheville?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a passage leverset with no locking function, so it belongs on hall and closet doors only. For the exterior leaf, the Deltana 6201 Manchester, 6411 Morant, and 6431 Linstead lever entry sets all cover doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 5851 Claremont is also an entry function lever. The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.
22) Can a knob lockset be swapped in where a Callan Asheville lever goes?
The Callan Asheville AH5011 is a lever and meets ADA requirements; knob trim does not. Knob sets in the same cylindrical family include the Arrow MK02-TA Grade 2 privacy lock with a Tudor knob, the Arrow HK11-BB entrance lock with a ball knob and conventional cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS asylum function lock with a ball knob and Schlage C keyway. Those change the function and the trim type, so confirm the opening does not require lever operation before substituting.
23) Can I install a Callan Asheville passage lever myself, or does it take two people?
One person. The Asheville is built for single-person installation on a standard pre-bored door, and it has exposed screws rather than concealed fasteners, so the rose goes on with visible through-bolts and no separate spanner or set screw step. On a door already bored 2-1/8 by 1 inch it is a screwdriver job.
