Callan KN5011 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Callan Newport passage leverset fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door?
Yes. The Newport passage leverset covers 1-3/8 inch through 1-3/4 inch doors, so it handles both older interior slabs and standard 1-3/4 inch doors without any extra kit. The bore prep it needs is a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, which is the standard prep already in most existing doors, and the backset adjusts between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches to land on either common hole position.
2) Do I have to order the Callan Newport lever left hand or right hand?
No handing to specify. The Newport passage lever is fully reversible in the field for left or right hand openings, so one part number covers every door in the building. That matters if you are buying a batch for a hallway or closet run, you order quantity and finish only and sort the swing at the door.
3) What is the difference between a passage lever and a privacy lever for a closet or hallway door?
A passage lever like the Callan Newport has no lock at all, both levers turn freely at all times and there is no button, thumbturn or key. That is what you want on a hall, a linen closet or a pantry. If the door is a bedroom or bathroom you need a privacy function instead, with a push button or turn inside, for example the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton privacy lever or the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever. If the door needs a key, you are looking at an entrance function such as the Master Lock RL Series keyed entry lever.
4) Is a Grade 3 lever like the Callan Newport strong enough for an apartment building or an office corridor?
Grade 3 is the residential duty level, and the Newport is built for residential use, zinc body, 1/2 inch latch throw. It is fine inside a unit, on closets and hall doors where the traffic is a household. For a leased corridor, a school or anything with public traffic, step up to a commercial set: the Hager 2510 or Falcon B101 are Grade 2 passage levers, and the Falcon K101 or Design Hardware X75 are Grade 1 passage levers for heavy traffic openings.
5) Will the Callan Newport latch drop into my existing strike plate?
It ships with a round corner latch faceplate and a 1/2 inch throw, which is the standard residential tubular latch. If the door already has a round corner faceplate mortise in the edge and a matching strike in the jamb, the swap is direct. If your existing latch has a square corner faceplate, the edge mortise will not match the round corner plate and you will need to file the mortise or change the strike.
6) Can I put the Callan Newport passage lever on a fire rated door?
Not the right choice. The Newport is a residential Grade 3 set and carries no fire rating. For a rated opening, use a lever that states one: the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock is fire rated and covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch doors, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 passage lock is fire rated for 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors.
7) What is the closest equivalent to the Callan Newport passage leverset in a Grade 2 commercial lever?
The Callan Newport is a Grade 3 passage leverset with a free-turning lever on both sides and no locking function. If the opening calls for a Grade 2 cylindrical passage lever instead, the Accentra 5301LN Augusta from the 5300 Series and the Accentra 4601LN from the 4600 Series both carry a Grade 2 rating and a passage/hall/closet function. The Hager 2510 with the Withnell lever design is another Grade 2 passage lever, and it lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. All three do the same job at the door - latch only, no key, no privacy - at a higher BHMA grade than the Newport.
8) Is there a Grade 3 passage lever from another brand that matches the Callan Newport?
The Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage leverset is the direct Grade 3 counterpart. It is rated Grade 3 with a passage/hall/closet function and lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch - the same door thickness range the Newport covers. Both are non-keyed hall and closet levers. The Newport backset is adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch and the latch comes with a round corner faceplate and 1/2 inch throw, so confirm the Breton latch prep matches the bore already in the door before swapping one for the other.
9) The Newport passage lever will not work because the door needs to lock for a bathroom - what should I order instead?
A passage lever has no locking function at all, so a bath or bedroom door needs a privacy set. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton privacy leverset is Grade 3 with a privacy/bed/bath function and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, which matches the Newport door thickness range. In Grade 2, the Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever is a privacy cylindrical lock listing 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 lever with the 5048 rose is offered in a privacy version as well.
10) The Newport is Grade 3 residential - what passage lever should go on a high traffic commercial corridor instead?
The Newport is rated Grade 3 and carried as residential. For a corridor taking commercial traffic, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock with non-handed levers, fire rated, and takes doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Falcon T101 is also Grade 1 heavy duty passage with pressure release technology. The Corbin Russwin CL3110 from the CL3100 Series is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage/closet lever, fire rated, for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Design Hardware X75 flat lever is a Grade 1 passage lockset for 1-3/4 inch doors.
11) What passage lever fits a door thicker than the Newport handles?
The Newport covers doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a thicker slab, the Arrow GL01 Sierra lever is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage lock listing 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. The Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage lever runs 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage lock runs 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, which is the widest of the group. Measure the actual slab at the bore, since a fire door with added facing can land outside a range that the drawing says it should meet.
12) Does the Callan Newport lever meet ADA requirements for lever operation?
Yes, the Newport passage set meets ADA requirements. Since it is a passage function with no lock, there is nothing to grasp, pinch or twist, the lever operates with a closed fist, which is the point of the ADA rule.
13) What finishes does the Callan Newport passage lever come in, and will it match my other door hardware?
Four finishes: US10B oil rubbed bronze, US10BE edged bronze, US15 satin nickel, and US15A antique nickel. Those are the standard BHMA finish codes, so if the hinges and stops on your other openings are marked US15 or US10B they will read as a set. There is no polished brass or polished chrome option in the Newport lever.
14) I need a matching dummy lever for the inactive leaf of a double closet door. Can I use the Callan Newport passage set?
A passage set is not a dummy. The Newport has a working latch and needs a bored door; on an inactive leaf with no latch prep you want a dummy trim, which just screws to the face. From the dummy levers we carry, the BEST 7KC Series single dummy trim and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy (available left or right hand) both do that job, and Emtek offers dummy pairs in the Arts and Crafts and Cortina levers. Those will not match the Newport lever profile, so on a visible pair of doors pick one family for both leaves.
15) What is a comparable Grade 3 passage lever to the Callan Newport if I want a different lever style?
The Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever is the closest straight equivalent we carry, also Grade 3 passage function and rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so it drops into the same prep. For a step up in duty without going commercial, the Bravura Miramar, Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa passage leversets are all Grade 2, with Tampa giving you a square rose instead of round.
16) I need a keyed lever for an office door, not a passage lever like the Newport - what are the options?
The Newport is passage only, non-keyed. For a keyed office or entrance opening in Grade 3, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is an entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, and the Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry lever in a return style. Stepping up, the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium duty entry/office lever and the Dexter C1000 entry/office lever is Grade 1 with clutching and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range.
17) Can a dummy lever be used in place of the Newport passage leverset?
No - a dummy lever is not a substitute. The Newport passage set has a working latch: an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, round corner latch faceplate and 1/2 inch throw, so the lever retracts a bolt and holds the door closed. A dummy lever is fixed trim with no latch behind it, used on an inactive leaf or a door held by a roller or magnetic catch. The Accentra 455LN Augusta 5400 Series single dummy, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim and the BEST 7KC Series 1DT are all dummy function. Order a dummy only where nothing needs to latch.
18) How do the Bravura passage leversets differ from the Callan Newport?
They differ in grade and in trim style. The Newport is a Grade 3 zinc passage leverset with reversible handing and a round corner latch faceplate, offered in oil rubbed bronze, satin nickel, edged bronze and antique nickel. The Bravura passage leversets are Grade 2: the Atlanta, Orlando and Miramar all use round trim, while the Tampa uses square trim. The Miramar is offered in US4 satin brass. If the other doors in the unit are on square rose trim, the Tampa is the one that matches; the Newport and the round trim Bravura sets carry a round rose.
19) Is there a keyless pushbutton lever that gives passage function like the Newport but controls access?
The Newport is mechanical and non-keyed, free turning on both sides, so it controls nothing. If the opening needs code-based access with a passage mode, the Lockey 2835 is a mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock with passage function and ADA compliance, taking doors from 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 2835DC is the double combination version over the same door thickness range. 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 1150S adds an adjustable backset. The Newport itself meets ADA requirements and has an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset.
20) For a storeroom or classroom door, what replaces the Newport passage lever?
Those functions are keyed and the Newport is not - it has no locking function. For a storeroom, the Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 storeroom lever lockset with a deadlocking latchbolt covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Hager 2580 with the Withnell lever is Grade 2 storeroom for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. For a classroom, the Cal-Royal AG03 is a classroom lever in the AG Series with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/4 inch backset, and the Dexter C1000 classroom lever is Grade 1 with clutching for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
21) Is a Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever a drop-in for the Callan Newport?
Both are passage function levers, so they behave the same at the door - latch only, no lock. The difference is the trim and the handing. The Newport is fully reversible for left or right hand applications and made of zinc. The Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever mounts on the 5048 rose, and the matching Estate 5103 half dummy is sold as separate left hand and right hand parts, so the family is handed where the Newport is not. On a retrofit, check the rose diameter against the existing trim footprint before committing.
22) What is a medium duty passage lever alternative to the Newport for a light commercial job?
The Falcon B101 from the B Series is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, and the Design Hardware J75 flat lever is a Grade 2 passage lockset in the J Series sized for 1-3/4 inch doors. Both are passage function, the same as the Newport, which is Grade 3 with reversible handing for left or right hand applications and doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The J75 is the one to check first if the door is a standard 1-3/4 inch commercial slab.
23) Should I use a knob set instead of the Newport lever?
Only if ADA does not apply. The Newport lever meets the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which a round knob generally does not. The knob options are also different functions rather than passage: the Arrow MK02-TA Tudor knob is a privacy non-keyed lock that is fire rated for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, the Arrow HK11-BB ball knob is a turn-pushbutton entrance lock with a conventional cylinder for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Arrow MK33-BD-CS ball knob is a heavy duty asylum function lock with a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway. For a hall or closet on an ADA-governed opening, stay on a lever.
24) How far does the Callan Newport lever stick out from the door face?
Projection is 2-3/8 inches off the door face. Worth checking on a door that swings back against a wall or into a narrow closet return, and on a door where a wall mounted stop has to catch the door rather than the lever.
25) Are the mounting screws on the Callan Newport lever visible from the outside?
Yes, the Newport uses exposed screws through the rose rather than concealed fasteners. It goes on as a one person install with no special tool, but if you want a clean rose with no visible screw heads on a feature door, that is a different trim style.
26) What is the Callan Newport lever made of?
Zinc. That is a cast zinc body and lever, typical of residential Grade 3 hardware and the reason the set is light and easy to hang single handed. If you want forged brass on the same kind of opening, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 lever with a solid brass forged body.
