Callan KR1011 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Callan Fairfield passage knobset fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door with a standard 2-1/8 inch bore?
Yes. The Fairfield passage knob covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors and drops into the standard prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore. Backset is adjustable between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, so it hits either of the two common bore locations without ordering a different latch. That is the same prep an older residential knob would have left behind, so most swaps need no new drilling.
2) Does the Callan Fairfield knob lock, or does it turn freely on both sides?
It never locks. Passage function means both knobs turn free at all times, with no button, no thumbturn and no key. It is the right pick for a hall, a closet or a pantry door where you only want the door to stay latched shut. For a bedroom or bath you need a privacy set instead, and for a door that has to be secured, an entrance function like the Cal-Royal BER00 Grade 3 knob with a Kwikset keyway.
3) Do I have to order the Callan Fairfield knobset handed for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The Fairfield is fully reversible and works on a left or right hand door out of the same box, so a property manager buying a dozen for mixed openings orders one part number and sorts it at the door.
4) Will this Callan knob latch into the strike plate that is already in my door frame?
The latch throws 1/2 inch, which is the normal throw for a residential cylindrical knob, so an existing strike from a comparable knob set will usually catch it. The faceplate is a round corner, so if your door edge is mortised with square corners you will either need to re-chisel the corners or reuse the existing faceplate prep only where it is already radiused.
5) Is a Grade 3 knobset like the Callan Fairfield tough enough for an apartment building or an office corridor?
Grade 3 is the residential duty level, and Callan lists the Fairfield as a residential product. It holds up fine on unit interior doors, closets and halls inside an apartment. For a commercial corridor or a school where the door gets cycled all day, step up: the Corbin Russwin CK4410 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset covering 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors.
6) I need a knob for a closet door that does not latch at all, just pulls shut. Is a passage set right?
No, and this is the most common mis-order on closet doors. The Fairfield passage set has a working latch that throws 1/2 inch into a strike. If your closet door is held by a ball catch, a roller, or is one leaf of a bi-fold, you want a dummy knob with no latch mechanism, such as the Bravura Biloxi Grade 2 dummy knobset or the Cal-Royal BA40 dummy for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
7) Will the Callan Fairfield knobset work on a 2 inch thick door?
No. The Fairfield tops out at 1-3/4 inches. For a thicker slab, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Grade 1 passage covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage goes to 2-1/4 inches. Deltana's Round Knob and Portland entry knobs are also listed to 2 inches if you are on an entry door rather than a passage opening.
8) What passage knob should be used instead of the Callan Fairfield on a commercial corridor door?
The Fairfield is a residential Grade 3 passage knob. For a commercial corridor, step up to the Falcon W101, a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock in passage/closet function that carries a fire rating, or the Falcon X101, a Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch and also fire rated. The Schlage D10S is another Grade 1 heavy duty passage option with an Orbit knob.
9) Which knob looks like a substitute for the Callan Fairfield passage but is actually a dummy?
Several knobs in the same style are dummy trim, which does not latch at all - the knob is fixed and there is no latch bolt in the door. The Bravura Biloxi with round trim is a Grade 2 dummy knobset, the Schlage A170 is a Grade 2 heavy duty single dummy trim, the Cal-Royal BA40 is a dummy knob for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the BEST 6K single dummy trim is a Grade 2 medium duty dummy. The Fairfield passage knob turns and retracts a latch with a 1/2 inch throw, so a dummy is not a swap for it on a door that must stay closed.
10) Which knob should be ordered instead of the Callan Fairfield when the door needs a key?
The Fairfield has no locking function, so a keyed opening needs a different lock. Grade 3 keyed options include the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Pamex FTF Baron in entrance/office function at the same grade and door range, and the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob, Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Fairfield uses a 5 pin KW1 cylinder specification on its keyed siblings, which matches the Kwikset keyway on the BER00.
11) Is there a passage knob that fits doors thicker than 1-3/4 inch?
The Callan Fairfield covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a thicker door in the same passage function, the Corbin Russwin CK4310 Global knob is a Grade 1 non-keyed passage/closet lock rated 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage knobset goes to 2-1/4 inch. The Lockey 3830 keyless combination knob covers 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch in a passage function.
12) Which knob replaces the Callan Fairfield on a storeroom or classroom door?
Passage function leaves the door unsecured, so a storeroom or classroom opening needs a keyed lock. The Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 standard duty storeroom and closet knob lock with a single cylinder, and the Sargent 8XG04 is the Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom and closet version with a 2-3/4 inch backset. For a classroom function, the Dexter C2000 classroom ball knob is Grade 2, keyed, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
13) What finishes does the Callan Fairfield passage knob come in, and can I match it to the rest of the doors?
Five finishes: US3 bright brass, US15 satin nickel, US19 black, US10B oil rubbed bronze, and US10BE edged bronze. Those are the standard US finish codes, so matching to existing hardware is a matter of reading the code off what you already have rather than eyeballing the color.
14) Can I key the Callan Fairfield passage knob to match my other Kwikset locks?
There is no keying on this one. Passage function has no cylinder in it at all. If you are building a keyed-alike set across a house or a unit, the passage doors just latch and the keying happens on the entry doors. The Fairfield family uses a 5 pin KW1 cylinder on its keyed functions, which is the Kwikset keyway, so an entry knob from the same series will key alongside existing Kwikset hardware.
15) What is the closest alternative to the Callan Fairfield passage knob if I want the same function from another brand?
Straight equivalents on the same function: the Pamex FTF Baron passage knob is Grade 3 for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same duty band and door range. Stepping up one grade, the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob and the Bravura Albany or Lynchburg passage knobsets are Grade 2 options. The Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob ships with a round corner adjustable latch and a round corner strike, which is the same latch style used here.
16) Can I use a Callan Fairfield passage knob on a fire rated door?
Not from what Callan states for the Fairfield. If the opening is a labeled fire door, order a knob the manufacturer rates for it: the Falcon W101 Grade 2 passage knob carries a fire rating, as does the Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage knobset. Both are listed for the passage/closet latch function, so the door behaves the same way on the job.
17) What is the difference between the Callan Fairfield passage knob and the Dexter C2000 passage knob?
Both are non-keyed passage knobs for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Dexter C2000 passage ball knob is Grade 2 and non-clutching; the Callan Fairfield is Grade 3, zinc, with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and reversible handing. Choose on the grade the spec calls for and on the knob shape.
18) What other Grade 2 passage knobsets are made for the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors as the Callan Fairfield?
The Arrow MK01 and Arrow RK01 are both Grade 2 non-keyed passage cylindrical knob locks for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the RK01 with a ball knob. The Corbin Russwin CK4410 Global knob is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage/closet lock over the same door range. All three sit a grade above the Fairfield's Grade 3 while fitting the same door thicknesses.
19) Which passage knob has a decorative rose instead of the plain round trim on the Callan Fairfield?
The Callan Fairfield comes with a round corner latch faceplate and a straightforward round trim in finishes including US10B oil rubbed bronze and US3 bright brass. For a decorative rose in the same passage function, the Baldwin Estate 5011 Colonial passage knob uses a 5058 rose, the Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore passage knob uses a 5048 rose with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, and the Bravura Dallas passage knobset is Grade 2 with rectangular trim.
20) Is the Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob the same thing as the Callan Fairfield passage knobset?
They serve the same opening but are not identical. The Kwikset 200P Polo is an interior hall and closet passage knob supplied with a 6AL latch and RCS round corner strike, and the 200P-CP version ships with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike. The Callan Fairfield is Grade 3, zinc, with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore, and reversible handing. Match the backset and bore prep before treating one as a drop-in for the other.
21) What is a Grade 3 knob alternative to the Callan Fairfield for standardizing an apartment building?
For a residential fleet, the Grade 3 knobs that fit the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors are the Pamex FT3 Saturn knob lockset and the Pamex FTF Baron family, which is available in passage, privacy and entrance/office functions at Grade 3 across that door range. The Cal-Royal Barrington BER series gives the same coverage with BER00 entrance/office and BER20 privacy. Building around one of those families lets passage, privacy and keyed doors carry matching knobs.
22) How far does the Callan Fairfield knob stick out from the door face?
Projection is 2-3/8 inches. That matters where the door swings back against a wall or a cabinet, or on a narrow hallway where a protruding knob catches people. If you need more clearance off the face there is nothing to adjust here, the projection is fixed.
23) Are the mounting screws on the Callan Fairfield knob visible from the room side?
Yes, the screws show. Callan lists concealed screws as no, so you will see the two rose screws on the interior face. If exposed fasteners are a problem on a visible opening, look at a set with a concealed rose instead. Installation is otherwise a one person job, no second set of hands to hold the outside knob.
