Callan KN5057 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does a single dummy lever come with two levers or one?
One. The Newport single dummy ships with a single lever and one rosette, mounted on whichever face of the door you want it on. If you need a pull on both sides of the door, order two.
2) Do I have to specify left hand or right hand when ordering a Newport dummy lever?
No. The Newport lever is fully reversible, so the same part handles a left or right hand door and you set the lever direction at install. Handing only becomes a decision on the wall, not on the order form.
3) I need a lever that actually locks, not a dummy. What should I order instead?
A dummy has no cylinder and no latch, so it won't secure anything. For a keyed opening, look at a keyed entry lever such as the Brinks Mendocino Series or the Brinks Raleigh Series, both entrance function with an adjustable latch and a round corner full lip strike. Keep the dummy for the inactive leaf and put the keyed lever on the active one.
4) What should I use instead of the Callan Newport dummy lever if the door actually needs to latch and lock?
The Newport dummy lever is a dummy function lever, so it is surface mounted with no latch and no key. When the opening needs a latching, keyed lever, step to a keyed entry lever such as the Brinks Mendocino Series keyed entry contemporary lever with square rose, which is an entrance function and ships with a 4 way adjustable latch and a round corner full lip strike. Use the Newport dummy on the inactive leaf or closet door and the entrance lever on the door that has to secure.
5) How far does the Newport lever stick out from the door?
Projection is 2-3/8 inches off the face of the door. Worth checking where a dummy goes on a closet or a French door leaf that swings back against a wall, a cabinet, or another door, because the lever is the first thing that hits.
6) Is a Grade 3 zinc dummy lever good enough for an apartment building?
It's a Grade 3, residential-duty zinc lever. That suits apartment interiors, closets, and unit-side French doors where the part carries no latching load anyway. For a commercial corridor or a high-traffic institutional opening, you want a Grade 1 or Grade 2 lever instead; a dummy sees hand traffic but the grade still tells you the class of product you are buying.
7) Can one person install a dummy lever, or do I need to bore the door?
One person, no bore. It's surface mounted, so there's no 2-1/8 inch cross bore and no latch mortise to cut, just fastening the rose to the door face. The screws are exposed rather than concealed.
8) If I want the same lever look on a closet door and on a locking bedroom door, what pair works?
Run the Callan Newport dummy lever on the closet and inactive doors and a keyed entry lever on the doors that lock. Brinks offers two rose shapes for that keyed side: the Mendocino Series contemporary lever on a square rose and the Raleigh Series transitional wave lever on a round rose. The Newport dummy uses a rosette and is reversible for left or right hand openings, so it drops onto either side of the door without ordering a hand.
9) For a residential unit turnover, does the Callan Newport dummy lever meet the same use case as a Brinks keyed entry lever?
They cover different doors in the same unit. The Callan Newport is a residential Grade 3 dummy lever for closets, inactive leaves, and anywhere decorative trim is wanted without mechanical latch function, and it meets ADA requirements. The Brinks Mendocino and Raleigh Series levers are entrance function, keyed entry levers for the doors that need to secure. A turnover package typically carries both rather than choosing between them.
10) What finishes does the Callan Newport dummy lever come in?
Four: US15 Satin Nickel, US15A Antique Nickel, US10B Oil Rubbed Bronze, and US10BE Edged Bronze. If you're matching dummies to keyed and passage levers already on the other doors, pick the same US number, since that's the code that carries across the Newport trim.
