Corbin Russwin 797F845 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Corbin Russwin 797F855 lever fit a CL3300 or other Corbin Russwin cylindrical lock?
The 797F855 Newport lever is built for the CL3500 and CL3800 cylindrical lock platforms. Those are the two chassis families it matches. For any other Corbin Russwin series, order the lever made for that series instead, since the spindle and cassette interface is specific to the CL3500/CL3800 design.
2) What is the difference between the Plain and Cylinder or Button versions of the 797F855 lever?
Handing is not the variable here, the lever prep is. The Plain lever is a solid lever with no opening in it, used on the side of the lock that has no key or pushbutton. The Cylinder or Button lever is bored to accept a cylinder or a locking button, so it goes on the side where the function is operated. Match it to which side of your CL3500 or CL3800 chassis you are replacing.
3) Is the Newport NZD lever ADA compliant for a hospital or school corridor door?
The CL3500/CL3800 lever locks are listed to ADA A117.1, and a lever handle is the operable shape that requirement is aimed at. The platform is also UL/cUL listed for 3-hour fire doors up to 4 ft x 10 ft and complies with NFPA 80, which covers most corridor and stair openings in healthcare and education work.
4) What door thickness and backset does the CL3500/CL3800 lock the 797F855 lever goes on work with?
Standard range is 1-3/8 in to 1-7/8 in (35-48mm) door thickness, with an optional build for 2 in to 2-1/4 in. Backset is 2-3/4 in (70mm) standard, with 2-3/8 in, 3-3/4 in and 5 in optional. Minimum stile is 4-1/2 in (114mm), so a narrow aluminum stile door is out.
5) Will the CL3500 latch work in my existing edge bore and strike prep?
The latchbolt is stainless steel with a 1/2 in (13mm) throw and suits both 7/8 in and 1 in edge bore preps. The standard front is 2-1/4 in x 1-1/8 in and the strike is an ANSI curved lip, 4-7/8 in x 1-1/4 in with 1-1/4 in lip to center. Door prep follows ANSI/BHMA A156.115, so a door already machined to that standard takes it without rework.
6) Can I just replace the lever, or do I have to change the whole lock?
The 797F855 is a genuine factory lever component for CL3500 and CL3800 chassis, so a bent, worn or mismatched lever can be swapped without pulling the whole lock, provided the chassis is one of those two series. Confirm which side you are replacing and order Plain or Cylinder or Button to match. The chassis itself is held by thrubolts, which is what prevents rotation and keeps alignment once reassembled.
7) Is the 797F855 lever handed, or do I need to specify left or right?
Non-handed. The CL3500/CL3800 platform uses a non-handed spring cassette, so the same lever works on a left or right hand door and the cassette is what keeps the lever from sagging over time.
8) My tenants keep breaking levers off the door. Is the Newport NZD lever any tougher?
Two things help in abuse-prone openings. The levers are solid cast with no plastic inserts, and the CL3500/CL3800 platform uses Lever Release freewheeling levers, so a lever that gets forced past its stop turns freely rather than transmitting the force into the chassis. That is the vandal resistance feature on this family.
9) Is a Grade 2 cylindrical lever enough for a commercial office or should I go Grade 1?
The CL3500/CL3800 is a standard-duty lever lockset certified to ANSI/BHMA A156.2 Series 4000, Grade 2. That is appropriate for offices, retail, multi-tenant residential and general classroom and back-of-house doors. For a high-traffic main entrance or a door that sees constant cycling all day, a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical or mortise lock is the better specification.
10) What finish does the 797F855 Newport lever come in, and will it match my existing Corbin Russwin hardware?
The Newport lever is offered in 626 Satin Chrome, in both the Plain and the Cylinder or Button lever. 626 is the common commercial satin chrome finish, so it lines up with other 626 hardware on the same opening. The CL3500/CL3800 family overall is built in 14 finishes plus MicroShield antimicrobial options if you are standardizing a building on something else.
11) What keyway do the CL3500/CL3800 cylinders use, and can they go on an existing master key system?
The standard cylinder is brass with a 6-pin L4 keyway, supplied 0-bitted so a locksmith can key it to your system. High Security and security key systems including Access 3 and Pyramid are available on the platform if you are building or extending a restricted keyway. Note the Plain lever has no cylinder prep, so the keyed side needs the Cylinder or Button lever.
12) Is the Newport lever rated for hurricane or windstorm openings?
The CL3500/CL3800 lever lock platform carries Windstorm/Hurricane certification along with its UL/cUL 3-hour fire listing, which is what coastal jurisdictions look for on a labeled opening. Pair it with a frame and door assembly carrying the matching approval.
