Callan G2BN5021R – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Callan Bentley privacy leverset fit a 1-3/8 inch door, or is it 1-3/4 only?
Both. The Bentley privacy leverset is built for 1-3/4 inch and 1-3/8 inch doors, so it covers the standard commercial slab and the older interior thickness without a separate kit. Prep is the usual 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore.
2) Do I need to know the backset before I order the Bentley lever, or does it adjust?
It adjusts. The Bentley uses a patented GR2 adjustable latch that sets to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, the two standard bored-lock backsets, so one part covers both preps. That is useful if you are stocking a truck or re-keying a building where the door prep varies from unit to unit.
3) Is this the right lock for a bedroom or bathroom door, and can it be opened from outside in an emergency?
Yes, privacy is exactly the function. The Bentley locks from the inside with a thumbturn or button and the outside trim has a small pin hole so a parent, manager or maintenance tech can release it from the hallway side. There is no key and no cylinder, so do not use it on an entry or a door you need keyed.
4) Do I have to specify left hand or right hand on the Callan Bentley leverset?
No. The Bentley lever is reversible in the field for left or right hand openings, so one part number covers either swing. You set the handing at install rather than at the order desk.
5) What is a comparable Grade 2 privacy lever to the Callan Bentley privacy leverset?
The Hager 2540 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever is a Grade 2 privacy lever in the same class, and it lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Callan Bentley privacy leverset is also Grade 2 with a privacy bed/bath function, fits 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch doors, and is offered in US15 satin nickel, US19 black, and US10BE edged bronze. The difference is lever style and finish selection rather than function.
6) I need a privacy lever for a bathroom door in a school or hospital corridor - is the Callan Bentley the right choice?
The Callan Bentley privacy leverset is classed as residential Grade 2 hardware. For institutional traffic, a Grade 1 privacy option such as the Arrow MK02-TA is the heavier specification; it is a privacy bed/bath cylindrical lock rated Grade 1 with a fire rating and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, though it uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever. Where a lever is required by ADA, the Bentley is ADA compliant.
7) Can the Bentley lever be installed on a hollow metal door, or is it wood only?
Both. It ships with combination screws that suit wood or metal door mounting, and the latch carries a protective sleeve for added security. Standard bored prep applies either way: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore.
8) Does this Callan privacy lever meet ADA requirements for lever operation?
The Bentley is stated as ADA compliant, which is the reason to pick a lever over a knob on a unit or bath door. It is a Grade 2 lockset classed as residential, so for a commercial corridor or an institutional bath you would generally want a heavier assembly instead.
9) What is a heavier duty alternative to the Callan Bentley privacy lever for a commercial bathroom?
The Bentley is a Grade 2 residential-class privacy set, fine for apartments and bedrooms but light for a high-traffic public restroom. For a step up in the same privacy function, Hager's 2540 with the Withnell lever is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical privacy lock rated for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. If you want a knob instead of a lever, Arrow's MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors and carries a fire rating.
10) I need a matching lever for a hall or closet door that does not lock. What pairs with the Bentley privacy set?
The Bentley privacy set only covers doors that need locking. For the non-locking openings on the same floor, a passage leverset is the part you want. Bravura's Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa round or square trim passage leversets are Grade 2 like the Bentley, and Accentra's 5301LN Augusta is a Grade 2 passage/closet cylindrical lever if you prefer a commercial line.
11) Will the Bentley latch work with the strike plate already in my door frame?
Depends on the frame prep. The Bentley latch is offered with both round corner and squared corner faceplates, so the latch face itself can be matched to the existing mortise in the door edge. The frame strike is a separate consideration, but with the backset adjustable between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches the latch will line up to standard bored openings.
12) What should I order instead of the Callan Bentley privacy leverset for a hall or closet door that does not need to lock?
Use a passage lever. Comparable Grade 2 passage leversets include the Accentra 5301LN Augusta in the 5300 Series, the Arrow GL01 with the Sierra lever and a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range, and the Hager 2510 with the Withnell design at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Callan Bentley privacy leverset has a locking mechanism on the interior with an emergency pin hole outside, which a closet does not require.
13) Is the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever the same thing as the Callan Bentley privacy leverset?
Both are privacy bed/bath levers, but they sit at different grades. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy lever set is Grade 3 with a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range. The Callan Bentley privacy leverset is Grade 2 and fits 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch doors with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset.
14) What looks like a substitute for the Callan Bentley privacy leverset but will not lock a bedroom door?
Dummy levers are the common mix-up. The Accentra 455LN Augusta single dummy in the 5400 Series, the BEST 7KC single dummy trim, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy levers are all dummy function - fixed trim with no latch and no locking. Only a privacy function unit like the Callan Bentley privacy leverset gives you the interior lock with an exterior emergency pin hole.
15) If the door needs a keyed lever rather than privacy, what replaces the Callan Bentley?
Step to a keyed entrance or storeroom function. The Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever with a deadlocking latchbolt and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, and the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock with a lever at 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Callan Bentley privacy leverset is non-keyed on the exterior, with only a pin hole for emergency release.
16) For a multi-family bathroom door that takes heavy use, what is a heavier-duty alternative to the Callan Bentley privacy leverset?
The Callan Bentley privacy leverset is Grade 2 and classed residential. For a heavier chassis, Falcon offers Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical levers such as the K101 in the K Series, fire rated with a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range, and the T101 in the T Series - both passage function, so they suit corridor and closet openings rather than a door that must lock from inside.
17) What finishes does the Callan Bentley privacy lever come in for matching the rest of my doors?
Three: US15 Satin Nickel, US19 Black, and US10BE Edged Bronze. Satin nickel is the usual match for existing brushed hardware in apartments, black for a modern package, edged bronze where the building runs a darker traditional look.
