Callan ST5021 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Callan Silona privacy leverset fit a standard 1-3/8 inch interior door with a 2-1/8 inch bore?
Yes. The Silona privacy leverset covers door thicknesses from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch and drops into the standard residential prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore and 1 inch edge bore. Backset is adjustable between 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch, so it works whether the hole was bored for a residential or a wider commercial-style backset. Lever projection off the door face is 1-7/8 inch.
2) Do I need to order a left hand or right hand version of the Callan Silona privacy lever?
No handing to specify. The Silona lever is fully reversible for left or right hand doors, so one part number covers either swing. That is what makes it practical for a property manager buying a case of them without surveying every opening first.
3) Is a privacy leverset the right function for a bathroom door, or do I need a keyed lock?
Privacy is the correct function for a bathroom or bedroom. The Silona locks from the inside only, with a small pin hole on the outside face for emergency release. There is no key and no cylinder, so it should not be used on an exterior door or anywhere you need keyed control. For a keyed opening you want an entrance function instead, like the Weslock 3740 Impresa Woodward entry lock.
4) Will the Callan Silona latch work with the strike plate already in my door frame?
The Silona ships with a 1/2 inch latch throw and a round corner faceplate. A 1/2 inch throw is standard residential, so it will engage a typical existing strike as long as that strike is set for a bored lock and the frame mortise matches a round corner plate. If your existing faceplate is square corner, the frame mortise will show corners and you may need to adjust the prep.
5) What is a heavier-duty alternative to the Callan Silona privacy leverset for a commercial bed/bath opening?
The Callan Silona privacy leverset meets BHMA Grade 3 requirements and is designated for residential use. For a commercial opening, the Hager 3440 with Archer design is a Grade 1 cylindrical privacy lever lock, and the Sargent 28-10U65 is a Grade 1 heavy duty privacy bathroom cylindrical lock in the 10 Line Series. The Schlage AL40 sits between them as a Grade 2 heavy duty bath/bedroom privacy cylindrical lock in the AL Series.
6) Which privacy lever will fit a door thicker than 1-3/4 inches instead of the Callan Silona?
The Callan Silona privacy leverset is rated for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. For a thicker door, the Hager 3440 Archer privacy lever lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Weslock 0610 Bordeau privacy lever lock also covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch.
7) What is the closest residential privacy lever equivalent to the Callan Silona?
Two close residential matches are the Weslock 0610 Bordeau privacy lock, which is a privacy/bed/bath lever in the Traditionale series with an adjustable latch and full lip strike, and the Baldwin 5137 privacy lever with the 5046 rose, also a privacy/bed/bath function. The Silona itself is a cylindrical privacy leverset with adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset and fully reversible handing.
8) What finishes does the Callan Silona privacy lever come in, and can I match the rest of my doors?
Four finishes: US15 Satin Nickel, US26 Polished Chrome, US10BE Edged Bronze, and AS Antique Silver. The US15 and US26 codes are the standard industry finish designations, so matching hinges and other trim across a building is straightforward. Note the finish carries a five year coverage period separate from the mechanical parts.
9) Does the Callan Silona lever meet ADA requirements for lever operation?
Yes, the Silona meets the requirements for the Americans with Disabilities Act. The lever handle is operable without grasping or twisting, which is what ADA calls for on door hardware. That matters on multi-family units and any residence where accessible hardware is specified.
10) Is the Callan Silona rated for commercial use, or residential only?
Residential. The Silona is a zinc Grade 3 cylindrical lockset intended for homes, apartments and similar light-duty openings. For a commercial corridor or a leased office suite, a heavy duty Grade 2 or Grade 1 cylindrical privacy lock is the correct call, for example the Schlage AL40 in the AL Series or the Grade 1 Hager 3440.
11) What should I use instead of the Callan Silona privacy leverset on a keyed exterior door?
The Silona is privacy function only, locked from the inside and released by a pin hole from the outside, so it is not an exterior door lock. Keyed lever options include the Kwikset 354SPL Spyglass SmartKey entry lever with square rose, a Grade 2 entrance function for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Weslock 3740 Impresa Woodward entry lock, also 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a keyed lever plus deadbolt in one assembly, the Kwikset 508HRL interconnect pairs a 780 deadbolt with a Hali lever.
12) Can I use a dummy lever in place of the Callan Silona privacy leverset?
No. The Silona is a working privacy lock with a latch, round corner faceplate and 1/2 inch throw, so it secures and latches the door. Dummy trim such as the Baldwin 5108 right hand half dummy lever with the 5048 rose, or the Kwikset 973HFL Halifax dummy interior lever trim in round or square rose, is fixed trim with a dummy function and no latch at all. Use dummy trim only on inactive or false doors.
13) Is there a keyless or keypad lever alternative to the Callan Silona?
The Silona is a mechanical privacy leverset with no code entry. If you want keyless operation, the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set with double combination and the Lockey 2835DC double combination mechanical keyless lever lock are passage function keypad levers, with door thickness ranges of 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch and 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch respectively. The Yale YRL226 Assure lever is an electronic touchscreen single cylinder lever lock for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
14) For a school or classroom door, is the Callan Silona privacy leverset appropriate?
The Silona is a Grade 3 residential privacy leverset, so it is better matched to bedroom and bathroom doors. For classroom openings, the Schlage ND95 Vandlgard classroom security lock is a Grade 1 heavy duty keyed cylindrical lever in the ND Series, and the Sargent 10-1120 push button key-in-lever in the 10X Line Series is another institutional lever option.
15) Can one person install the Callan Silona leverset, and are the screws visible?
It is built for a one person install, no helper needed to hold the opposite side. Screws are exposed, not concealed, so the rose will show the mounting fasteners. If a clean screwless rose is part of the design spec, this is not the lever for it.
16) I need an ADA-compliant lever that is not the Callan Silona. What else qualifies?
The Callan Silona privacy leverset meets Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. Among other lever options, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is listed with passage function and ADA compliance for doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick. If the opening needs privacy function rather than passage, stay with a privacy lever such as the Hager 3440 Archer Grade 1 privacy lever lock.
17) Will a mortise lever trim set work in the same door prep as the Callan Silona?
No. The Silona is a bored cylindrical lockset using 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 mortise trim for an entrance function, which requires a mortise pocket in the door edge rather than a cylindrical bore. The matching Baldwin M514 Boulder knob mortise trim is the same type of prep.
