Corbin Russwin CL3132 NZD 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Corbin Russwin CL3132 fit a 1-3/4 inch commercial door with a 2-3/4 inch backset?
Yes. The CL3132 cylindrical lever lock is built for doors 1-3/4 inches to 2 inches thick and uses a 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the standard commercial bore layout. It ships with a deadlatch, square corner front, 2-1/4 by 1-1/8 inches, at that 2-3/4 inch backset, plus an ANSI curved lip strike with a 1-1/4 inch lip. If your doors are 1-3/8 inch older interior slabs, this is the wrong lock; the Dexter C1000 Series asylum lock covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches.
2) What does the F87 asylum function on the CL3132 actually do when someone is inside the room?
F87 is key-both-sides. The latchbolt is deadlocking and is retracted by key from either side only; the levers freewheel when locked, so they spin without pulling the latch. That means a person on the inside cannot get out without a key. Corbin Russwin's own guidance is to use it only in an office or room that has multiple entries. Do not put it on a single-exit occupied room, a classroom, or anything in an egress path.
3) Can I get the CL3132 keyed into my existing Corbin Russwin small format interchangeable core system?
Yes, order it less core. Cylinder choices on the CL3132 are CL6 (less core, LFIC 6-pin Corbin Russwin), CL7 (less core, LFIC 7-pin Corbin Russwin), the standard conventional 6-pin cylinder in the L4 keyway, or LC for less conventional cylinder. Take CL6 or CL7 if your locksmith is dropping in your own large format cores, or LC if you are supplying a conventional cylinder. The description also states the lock accepts Schlage LFIC.
4) I need twenty utility room locks all on one key. How do I order the CL3132 keyed alike?
Keying is a required selection on the CL3132, and KA (keyed alike) is one of the options, which is what you want when a maintenance tech carries one key for every utility closet. KD (keyed different) is the standard pick if each door needs its own key, and there is a None option when you are ordering less cylinder. A key code field is available if you are matching an existing facility system.
5) Is the Corbin Russwin CL3132 rated for a fire door?
Fire rated, yes, per the product record. It is also ANSI/BHMA Grade 1, the heaviest commercial grade, and Corbin Russwin states the T-Zone construction has been tested past 15 million cycles against the A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 1 standard.
6) I need a classroom or storeroom lock, not key-both-sides. What should I order instead of the CL3132?
The CL3132 is the wrong function for you. Its levers freewheel when locked and the latch only retracts by key from either side, so it will lock people in. For a classroom function at Grade 1, the Dexter C1000 classroom lever lock is the direct alternative, and the C1000 classroom security version keys from both sides while still allowing free egress. For a storeroom function, the Hager 2580 with the Withnell lever is a Grade 2 option covering 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors.
7) Will the CL3132 drop into a standard 161 cylindrical prep, or does the door need new machining?
It uses the standard commercial cylindrical bored-lock layout: 2-3/4 inch backset with a deadlatch face measuring 2-1/4 by 1-1/8 inches and an ANSI curved lip strike with a 1-1/4 inch lip. If the door already carries a 2-3/4 inch backset cylindrical lock with an ANSI strike prep in the frame, the latch and strike prep line up. Doors bored at 2-3/8 inch backset will not, and neither will doors under 1-3/4 inches thick.
8) What is the closest cross-brand equivalent to the Corbin Russwin CL3132 asylum lever lock?
The Dexter C1000 Series Asylum (F87) cylindrical lock is the closest peer: it is also a Grade 1 cylindrical lock in the asylum/institution/utility function, matching the CL3132's Grade 1 rating and ANSI F87 double-cylinder function. The Dexter C1000 asylum covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, while the CL3132 is built for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, so the Dexter reaches thinner doors the CL3132 does not.
9) Is there a knob version of an asylum function lock instead of a lever?
Yes. The Arrow MK33-BD-CS is an asylum/institution/utility cylindrical lock with a ball knob and a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, rated Grade 2 and heavy duty. The Corbin Russwin CL3132 is a lever design and carries a Grade 1 rating with a conventional 6-pin L4 keyway cylinder as standard. Where a facility keys to Schlage C, the Arrow arrives in that keyway; the CL3132 accepts Schlage LFIC as an option.
10) The CL3132 locks from both sides with a key - what should I use on a door that needs free egress?
The CL3132 has a deadlocking latchbolt operated by key from either side, which is why it is recommended only for an office or room with multiple entries. For an opening where the inside must always be free, a storeroom function such as the Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever with deadlocking latchbolt or the Hager 2580 Grade 2 storeroom lever with Withnell lever gives a locked outside lever with the inside lever always operating. For a classroom-type opening, the Dexter C1000 Series Grade 1 classroom cylindrical lever lock is a clutching keyed lever for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
11) My doors are 1-3/8 inch thick - which Grade 1 lever lock fits when the CL3132 does not?
The CL3132 is built for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, so a 1-3/8 inch leaf falls below its range. The Dexter C1000 Series Asylum (F87) is Grade 1 in the same asylum/institution/utility function and covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. If the function can be entry/office instead, the Dexter C1000 Entry/Office is Grade 1 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 heavy duty passage lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
12) Which alternatives to the CL3132 come in a Schlage C keyway from the factory?
The Arrow MK33-BD-CS asylum ball knob lock ships with a conventional cylinder in the Schlage C keyway, and the Cal-Royal AG03 classroom lever and AG00 entrance lever are Grade 2 with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different; the AG03 uses a 2-3/4 inch backset and the AG00 a 2-3/8 inch backset. The CL3132 comes standard with a conventional 6-pin L4 keyway cylinder and accepts Schlage LFIC, and is also offered less cylinder or less core for LFIC 6-pin and 7-pin.
13) Is the CL3132 lever lock handed, or does one part number cover both left and right doors?
Non-handed. One CL3132 covers left and right hand openings, so a property manager standardizing across a building orders a single part number instead of splitting the order by swing. Rose, lever style, finish, and cylinder are the choices that actually change the part.
14) What lever styles and roses can I get on the CL3100 Series institutional lock, and what size hole do they cover?
Three lever designs, Armstrong (AZ), Newport (NZ), and Princeton (PZ). Four roses: D rose at 3-1/2 inch diameter is the standard and covers the most prep, E rose is 3-1/8 inch square, and C and K roses are both 2-3/4 inch diameter. If you are replacing an older lock that left a chewed-up or oversized bore, the 3-1/2 inch D rose hides the most.
15) What is the difference between the Corbin Russwin CL3132 asylum lock and the Dexter C1000 asylum lock?
Both are Grade 1 cylindrical locks with the asylum/institution/utility F87-type function, so functionally they do the same job. The split is door thickness: the CL3132 covers 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors, while the Dexter C1000 asylum version covers 1-3/8 to 2 inches, which is what you need on thinner slabs. If you want the same function at Grade 2 with a knob instead of a lever, the Arrow MK33-BD-CS is an asylum-function cylindrical lock with a ball knob and a Schlage C keyway conventional cylinder.
16) What is a lighter duty lever lock for interior doors that do not need the CL3132's institutional function?
For interior openings that only need latching, the Falcon B101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical passage lever with a non-handed design, and the Arrow GL01 is a Grade 2 passage cylindrical lock with a Sierra lever for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Both are non-keyed passage function, unlike the CL3132, which is keyed with a deadlocking latchbolt by key from either side. If Grade 1 is required on a passage door, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty passage cylindrical lock, fire rated, for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch.
17) Can I use a Baldwin or Emtek lever in place of the Corbin Russwin CL3132?
No. The Baldwin Estate 5103 is offered in passage, privacy and half dummy functions, and the Emtek Arts and Crafts and Classic Cortina leversets are dummy pairs, which have no latch and no locking at all. The CL3132 is a keyed commercial cylindrical lock with a deadlocking latchbolt by key from either side and a Grade 1 rating. A dummy or privacy lever will not secure the opening the CL3132 is specified for.
18) I want a keyless option instead of a keyed institutional lever - what are my choices?
For an opening that should be code operated rather than keyed, the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock has a passage function and is ADA compliant for doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch, and the Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set covers doors 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch with an adjustable backset. The Delaney LP250 is an electronic keypad leverlock rated Grade 2. The CL3132 is a keyed lock with a fixed 2-3/4 inch backset and a conventional 6-pin L4 keyway cylinder, so it integrates with a facility key system rather than a code.
19) Is the Accentra 107S cylinder adapter kit a substitute for the CL3132?
No. The Accentra 107S is a Schlage cylinder adapter kit for Yale hardware, a keying accessory rather than a lockset. The CL3132 is a complete keyed cylindrical lever lock shipped with a conventional 6-pin L4 keyway cylinder, and it accepts Schlage LFIC directly, along with less-core LFIC 6-pin and 7-pin and less-cylinder configurations.
20) What Grade 1 lever lock should I look at for a matching passage door on the same corridor as a CL3132?
To hold the same Grade 1 level on a non-keyed opening, the Falcon T101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lever lock with pressure release technology, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty fire rated passage lock, and the Design Hardware X75 is a Grade 1 passage lever lockset with a flat lever for 1-3/4 inch doors. For dummy trim on an inactive leaf, the BEST 9K Series 1DT single dummy trim lever is Grade 1 heavy duty. The CL3132 itself is Grade 1 and fire rated with a lever handle.
21) What finishes does the Corbin Russwin CL3132 come in for matching the rest of a building's hardware?
Twelve finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 611 bright bronze, 612 satin bronze, 613 satin bronze oil-rubbed, 618 bright nickel, 619 satin nickel, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, 722 black oxidized bronze oil-rubbed, BSP black suede, and WSP white suede powder coat. 626 satin chrome is the usual institutional standard. Underneath, the lock is steel with a zinc dichromate treatment for corrosion resistance.
22) Is there an antimicrobial version of the Corbin Russwin CL3100 lever lock for a hospital?
Yes, the CL3100 Series is offered with Microshield antimicrobial coating for healthcare and institutional settings. The lock body is steel with zinc dichromate for corrosion resistance, and the levers meet the lever-handle requirement facilities usually specify over knobs.
