Callan KA5021R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Callan Lexington privacy leverset fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The Lexington privacy lever is built for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, which covers both the older 1-3/8 inch interior slab and the standard 1-3/4 inch door. Backset adjusts between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, so it drops onto either of the two common bore layouts without ordering a separate latch.
2) Can I put a Callan Lexington lever into the existing holes from an old knob?
If the door is bored to the standard residential pattern, yes. The Lexington needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and a 1 inch edge bore, which is the same prep almost every residential knob or lever uses. Measure the hole in the face of the door and the hole in the edge before you buy; if they match those two numbers and the door is 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick, no drilling is needed.
3) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand Lexington lever?
Neither. The Lexington is fully reversible, so one part number covers left and right hand doors. You set the handing during installation. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means one SKU on the shelf instead of two.
4) What does the privacy function on a bed and bath lever actually do if someone locks themselves in?
The inside lever has a push or turn lock for the occupant, and the outside face has a small pin hole. A straightened wire or emergency key through that hole releases the lock from the corridor side, so a bathroom with a child or a medical situation behind it can be opened without taking the door off. There is no key cylinder, so nothing gets keyed or re-keyed on this one.
5) Will the Lexington latch into the strike plate already in my door frame?
It has a 1/2 inch throw with a round corner faceplate. A 1/2 inch throw is the normal residential bored-lock projection, so it engages a standard strike in an existing frame. The thing to check is the faceplate on the door edge: the Lexington latch is round corner, so if your old latch had a square corner faceplate you will need to touch up the mortise corners with a chisel.
6) Is a Grade 3 privacy lever strong enough for an apartment building or a commercial restroom?
The Lexington meets BHMA Grade 3 and is classified as residential, which puts it in bedrooms, bathrooms and dwelling-unit interiors, not on a public restroom door taking hundreds of cycles a day. For commercial traffic step up in grade: the Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy cylindrical lock and the Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy lock with the Withnell lever. Both are built for a heavier duty cycle than a Grade 3 residential set.
7) The bathroom door is 2 inches thick and the Lexington only goes to 1-3/4 inch. What privacy lever fits?
The Arrow MK02-TA privacy lock covers a 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch door thickness range and is fire rated, so it takes the thicker leaf. It is a Tudor knob rather than a lever, so if lever operation is required for ADA on that opening the knob will not serve. The Callan Lexington is built for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors and meets ADA requirements.
8) I need a heavier privacy lever than Grade 3 for a commercial restroom. What steps up from the Lexington?
The Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever is a Grade 2 cylindrical lock covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, which is the commercial-duty step above a Grade 3 residential set. The Callan Lexington is a Grade 3 residential leverset in zinc; for a public restroom with facility traffic, the Grade 2 body and the wider thickness range are what change.
9) Is the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever the same thing as the Callan Lexington?
No. The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is passage function - it latches but does not lock - while the Callan Lexington is privacy function with an interior locking mechanism and an exterior pin hole for emergency release. Both are Grade 3 and both fit 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, so they look interchangeable on a spec sheet, but only the privacy set will lock a bedroom or bathroom door.
10) Does the Callan Lexington lever meet ADA requirements for a bathroom door?
Yes. The Lexington is stated to meet Americans with Disabilities Act requirements, which is the reason to use a lever rather than a knob here: it operates without grasping, pinching or twisting the wrist. That is what makes it the right choice on an accessible dwelling unit bathroom or bedroom.
11) I need a passage lever, not a privacy lock, for a hall closet. What should I get instead?
A privacy set is the wrong function for a closet or hallway, since it locks. For an always-unlocked lever, look at the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever, also Grade 3 and rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Bravura Atlanta or Orlando round-trim passage leversets in Grade 2. If you want the matching privacy set from Kwikset instead, that is the 300BRNL Breton, Grade 3, same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range.
12) What is the closest equivalent to the Callan Lexington privacy leverset from another brand?
The straight swap is the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever set: also Grade 3, also privacy/bed/bath, and rated for the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range, so it drops into the same prep. The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is the step up in trim if you want a solid brass look on the same function. Moving to commercial duty means the Hager 2540 (Grade 2, Withnell lever, 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors) or the Arrow MK02-TA, a Grade 1 privacy set with a Tudor knob rather than a lever.
13) Can I use a Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever in place of the Callan Lexington?
The Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever with the 5048 rose is a privacy function lever, so it serves the same bedroom and bathroom openings as the Callan Lexington. The trim is different - the 5103 comes on the 5048 rose, where the Lexington is the Lexington lever design in a US15 satin nickel finish - so on a run of doors where the trim has to match, pick one family and stay in it.
14) The door already has a lever but it just needs to look right - it does not latch. Do I need a privacy set?
No. A door leaf that does not latch, such as a fixed panel of a double door, takes a dummy trim rather than a privacy lock. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy is offered in left hand and right hand versions, and the Emtek Classic Cortina dummy is sold as a pair for a door needing trim on both faces. The Callan Lexington is a working privacy lockset with an interior locking mechanism, which is more hardware than a non-latching leaf needs.
15) What is the difference between the Callan Lexington and the Cal-Royal AUS00 - both are Grade 3?
They share the Grade 3 rating and the 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, but the functions are not the same. The Cal-Royal AUS00 is entrance/office function with a solid brass forged body, meant for a keyed opening. The Callan Lexington is privacy function in zinc, non-keyed, with a pin hole release on the outside. Use the AUS00 where the door needs a key and the Lexington where it needs a thumb-turn privacy lock.
16) Will the Callan Lexington work on a patient room or utility door in a care facility?
For an asylum or institution opening, the Dexter C1000 asylum (F87) is a Grade 1 lock covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is a heavy duty Grade 2 asylum lock in a Schlage C keyway. Those functions are built for controlled-access rooms. The Callan Lexington is a Grade 3 residential privacy set, which suits staff restrooms and resident bedrooms rather than a controlled patient or utility opening.
17) I need a fire rated lever on a rated bedroom or corridor door. Does the Lexington cover that?
For a rated opening, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 fire rated passage lock with non-handed levers covering 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 fire rated vandal resistant passage lever for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors. Both are passage function. The Callan Lexington is the privacy set for the unrated bedroom and bathroom doors on the same job, reversible for left or right hand.
18) How far does the Lexington lever stick out from the door face?
Projection is 1-7/8 inches. That matters where the door swings back against a wall, next to a vanity, or in a tight bathroom where the lever could catch a towel bar or a cabinet edge. Measure your clearance at the latch height before you commit.
19) What finish does the Callan Lexington privacy lever come in and will it match my other doors?
One finish: US15 Satin Nickel. US15 is the standard satin nickel designation, so it lines up with hinges, stops and other trim already marked US15 in the same building. If your existing hardware is bright chrome (US26) or oil rubbed bronze, it will not match.
20) Can one person install the Callan Lexington lever, and are the screws visible?
It is built for a one person install, so a maintenance tech can hang it without a second set of hands. The screws are exposed, not concealed, on the interior rose. If you need a clean screwless look on the trim, this is not the set; a concealed-screw rose design is what to specify instead.
21) What is the Callan Lexington lever made of, and how does it hold up in a bathroom?
Zinc body. Zinc is the normal casting material for residential bored levers and it carries the plated satin nickel finish well in a humid bathroom or ensuite. It is not the forged brass body you would spec for a commercial entrance, which is what the Cal-Royal AUS00 Grade 3 entrance lever uses.
22) Is there a keyless code entry lever that would work on the same door prep as the Lexington?
The Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is ADA compliant and fits doors from 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 heavy duty keypad lever set has an adjustable backset like the Callan Lexington's adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch. Both Lockey sets are passage function driven by a code, so nobody carries a key; the Lexington is a privacy set locked from inside the room, which is what a bedroom or bathroom needs instead.
