Callan ST5011 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Callan Silona passage leverset fit a 1-3/8 inch interior door, and what bore prep does it need?
It covers doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, so a standard 1-3/8 inch hollow-core or solid interior door is in range. Prep is the usual residential bored prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore, with the backset adjustable to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches. If your existing door is already bored for a knob or lever, the Silona drops into that same prep.
2) Do I need to order a left-hand or right-hand version of the Silona lever?
No handing to specify. The Silona passage lever is fully reversible, so the same unit works on a left or right hand door and one part number covers every opening in the building. That is why it is a safe item to stock for a multi-unit turn kit.
3) Does a passage lever lock at all, or do I need a privacy set for a bathroom?
Passage means no locking of any kind. Both levers turn freely at all times, which suits hallways, closets, and pantry doors. For a bathroom or bedroom you need a privacy function with a thumbturn instead, such as the Schlage AL40 or the Weslock 0610 Bordeau privacy lever.
4) Is a Grade 3 lever enough for apartment turns, or should I spec Grade 2 or Grade 1?
The Silona meets BHMA Grade 3, which is the residential duty level, and it is catalogued as a residential lock. It is fine for interior apartment hall and closet doors. For corridor doors, dorms, schools, or anywhere with heavy daily traffic, step up: the Schlage LT10 passage lever is Grade 2 heavy duty with the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch door range, and the Bravura Cary passage lever is a Grade 2 option.
5) Is a dummy lever the same thing as the Callan Silona passage leverset?
No. The Callan Silona passage leverset has a working latch with a 1/2 inch throw and levers that turn freely on both sides, so it latches the door shut. A dummy lever is fixed trim with no latch at all - the Kwikset 973HFL Halifax dummy interior lever trim, offered with a round rose or a square rose, and the Baldwin 5108 right hand half dummy lever with 5048 rose are all dummy function. Use a dummy only on a fixed or inactive leaf, not where the door has to stay closed.
6) What is a heavier-duty passage lever to use instead of the Callan Silona on a commercial corridor door?
The Callan Silona passage leverset is a Grade 3 cylindrical lockset listed for residential use. For a commercial corridor, the Schlage LT10 passage latch is a Grade 2 cylindrical non-keyed lever lock rated heavy duty, and it fits the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range as the Silona. The Bravura Cary with round trim is another passage leverset at Grade 2.
7) I need the same lever look on a bedroom or bathroom door - what do I use instead of the Callan Silona passage set?
The Callan Silona leverset is passage function, free turning on both sides with no locking. For a bedroom or bath you need privacy function: the Schlage AL40 is a Grade 2 non-keyed bath/bedroom privacy cylindrical lock, the Weslock 0610 Bordeau is a privacy lever lock with adjustable latch and full lip strike, and the Hager 3440 with Archer design is a Grade 1 cylindrical privacy lever lock.
8) If the door needs to lock with a key, what replaces the Callan Silona passage leverset?
The Silona is a passage set with no cylinder, so it cannot be keyed. For a keyed opening, the Kwikset 354SPL Spyglass lever is a Grade 2 entrance function lever with SmartKey, and the Weslock 3740 Impresa Woodward is an entry lock with adjustable latch and full lip strike for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a classroom or institutional opening, the Schlage ND95 Vandlgard classroom security lock is a Grade 1 keyed cylindrical lever.
9) Will the Silona latch work with the strike plate already in my jamb?
The latch ships with a round corner faceplate and a 1/2 inch throw. If your jamb has a standard residential strike set for a 1/2 inch throw bored latch, it lines up. If your existing latch faceplate is square corner, you will see the outline of the old mortise around the new round corner plate, so plan on a touch-up or a drive-in conversion.
10) Does the Callan Silona lever meet ADA requirements for lever operation?
Yes. The Silona is stated to meet Americans with Disabilities Act requirements, which is what the lever shape buys you over a knob: it is operable without grasping or twisting. Useful if you are converting knob openings in an accessible unit.
11) Does the Callan Silona work on a 2 inch thick door?
The Callan Silona passage leverset covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick with an adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset. For a door up to 2 inches, the Hager 3440 Archer lever is listed for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Lockey 1150 keypad lever set covers 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch.
12) We want keyless code entry on a passage-function lever - what is an alternative to the Callan Silona?
The Callan Silona is a mechanical passage leverset with no code or key entry. For pushbutton code access with passage function, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is ADA compliant and fits doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick, with a double combination version offered as the 2835DC. The Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set is another passage-function option, covering 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the 1150S adds an adjustable backset.
13) Can I use the Callan Silona leverset where a knob is specified instead?
The Callan Silona is a lever-style cylindrical set and meets ADA requirements, which levers satisfy where knobs generally do not. If a knob is wanted on a passage opening instead, the Schlage A10 passage latch is a Grade 2 cylindrical non-keyed knob lock rated heavy duty.
14) What is a stainless steel alternative to the zinc Callan Silona passage lever?
The Callan Silona passage leverset is made of durable zinc and comes in US15 Satin Nickel, AS Antique Silver, US26 Polished Chrome, and US10BE Edged Bronze. If you want a stainless body, the Emtek Stuttgart lever passage set is part of Emtek's tubular stainless steel leverset line and is also passage function.
15) For a hospital or school restroom where we standardize on Grade 1, what takes the place of the Callan Silona?
The Callan Silona is a Grade 3 passage set. On a Grade 1 standard, the Sargent 28-10U65 is a Grade 1 heavy duty privacy bathroom cylindrical lock with an L lever design from the 10 Line Series, and the Hager 3440 Archer is a Grade 1 cylindrical privacy lever lock. Both are privacy function rather than passage, so confirm which the opening calls for.
16) Is the Callan Silona a substitute for a mortise lever trim like the Baldwin M514?
No. The Callan Silona is a cylindrical bored lockset needing a 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. The Baldwin M514 Boulder lever full escutcheon single cylinder entry mortise trim is trim for a mortise lock body and is entrance function, so it requires a mortise pocket prep and a separate lock case. A Boulder knob version of the same mortise entry trim is also offered.
17) How much does the Silona lever stick out from the door face?
Projection is 1-7/8 inches off the door face. That matters where a door swings back against a wall, a cabinet, or another door in a tight closet alcove, and for clearance behind a door stop.
18) What finishes does the Callan Silona passage lever come in, so I can match the other doors?
Four finishes: US15 Satin Nickel, US26 Polished Chrome, US10BE Edged Bronze, and AS Antique Silver. Satin nickel and polished chrome are the usual matches for existing builder hardware; the bronze and antique silver suit darker trim packages.
19) Are the mounting screws on the Silona lever hidden?
No, the Silona rose uses exposed screws rather than a concealed-screw rose. It is built for a one person install, which is part of why the fasteners are face-mounted. If a clean rose with no visible fasteners is the look you need, you are looking at a different trim style.
20) We want an electronic lever on the front door and the Callan Silona on the interior - what pairs with it?
The Callan Silona passage leverset handles interior hall and closet doors with no locking. For the keyed exterior opening, the Yale YRL226 Assure Lever is an electronic touchscreen single cylinder lever lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, the same thickness range the Silona covers.
21) Is a key-in-lever set like the Sargent 10-1120 interchangeable with the Callan Silona?
They are not interchangeable in function. The Callan Silona is passage only, free turning on both sides with no cylinder. The Sargent 10-1120 from the 10X Line Series is a push button key-in-lever with standard cylinder prep, so it accepts a cylinder and locks - choose it when the opening needs to be secured rather than just latched.
22) Baldwin 5137 privacy versus the Callan Silona - which one goes on a bathroom?
The Baldwin 5137 lever with 5046 rose is privacy/bed/bath function, so it is the one for a bathroom. The Callan Silona is passage function with no locking and belongs on hallway and closet doors.
23) What is the Silona lever made of?
Zinc. That is a cast residential-duty body, consistent with its Grade 3 rating, and it is why this is an interior-door item rather than something to hang on a high-cycle corridor opening.
