Corbin Russwin DL2217-KEYED Cylindrical Deadlock Classroom Function with Single Cylinder Keyed Operation

Commercial-Grade Cylindrical Deadlock for Classroom Security Applications

The Corbin Russwin DL2217-KEYED is a commercial-grade cylindrical deadlock from the DL2200 Series, engineered for classroom function in demanding institutional environments. Designed for standard 1-3/4" (44mm) door thickness with a standard 2-3/4" (70mm) backset (optional 2-3/8" / 60mm available), this non-handed deadlock features a 1" throw solid steel deadbolt with a hardened, free spinning steel pin insert for superior forced-entry resistance. The unit operates by key outside and by thumbturn inside, with the thumbturn capable of retracting but not projecting the deadbolt, making it ideal for controlled-access classroom environments. The front plate is wrought brass or bronze measuring 2-1/4" (57mm) x 1-1/8" (29mm), and the standard strike measures 2-3/4" (70mm) x 1-1/8" (29mm).

Corbin Russwin DL2217 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does classroom function mean on the Corbin Russwin DL2217 deadlock?
On the DL2217, the deadbolt is thrown only by key from the outside. The inside thumbturn will retract the bolt but cannot project it. That is the point of classroom function: a student or occupant can always get out and unlock, but nobody can lock the door from inside without a key. If you need a thumbturn that throws the bolt from inside, this is the wrong function.
2) Will the DL2217 deadlock fit a 1-3/4 inch door, and what backset does it use?
The DL2217 is built for 1-3/4 inch (44mm) doors with a 2-3/4 inch (70mm) backset as standard. A 2-3/8 inch (60mm) backset is available as an option. Those are the two standard commercial backsets, so it will drop into most existing cross-bore centerlines on a commercial opening.
3) Will the DL2217 deadbolt latch into my existing strike prep?
The bolt throws 1 inch and the standard strike is 2-3/4 by 1-1/8 inches, with a front plate of 2-1/4 by 1-1/8 inches. If your frame is already prepped for a standard ANSI deadbolt strike of that size you are fine; if the old strike is a smaller residential plate, plan on re-prepping the jamb for the deeper 1 inch throw.
4) Can I get the DL2217 to take my existing interchangeable cores?
Yes, three cylinder choices are offered. Standard is a conventional 6-pin brass cylinder in the L4 keyway, 0-bitted, with two nickel silver keys. CL6 ships prepped less core for a Corbin Russwin 6-pin large format IC, and CL7 ships less core for a 7-pin interchangeable core. If your facility is already keyed on LFIC or SFIC-style 7-pin cores, order the less-core version and install your own.
5) What other classroom-function deadbolts could I use instead of the Corbin Russwin DL2217?
Two close alternatives we carry: the Falcon D111, a Grade 1 heavy duty classroom deadbolt with an adjustable backset, and the Hager 3118, a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a 6-pin cylinder in the Schlage C keyway that covers 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Hager is the one to look at if your building is already keyed on Schlage C; the Falcon if you need one part to cover both backsets. Falcon also offers the D211 if a Grade 2 classroom deadbolt is acceptable.
6) Is the DL2217 a double cylinder deadbolt, key on both sides?
No. It is single cylinder: key outside, thumbturn inside. If your code official or insurer requires key on both faces (common on glazed doors where someone could reach the turn), you need a double cylinder unit such as the Design Hardware D1 Series Grade 1 double cylinder, which is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Dexter DB1000 double cylinder.
7) The DL2217 is listed for 1-3/4 inch doors. What Grade 1 deadbolt covers thinner doors?
The Corbin Russwin DL2217 is specified for 1-3/4 inch door thickness. For thinner leaves, the Accentra D111 is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/8 inch backset rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter DB1000-SCT is a Grade 1 single cylinder deadbolt covering 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch. Both are cylinder x thumbturn rather than classroom function.
8) What is the closest equivalent to the Corbin Russwin DL2217 classroom deadlock from another manufacturer?
The DL2217 is a classroom function cylindrical deadlock keyed outside with a thumbturn inside that retracts but does not project the bolt. Falcon's D111 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt in the D100 Series with cylinder x thumbturn function and an adjustable backset, and Hager's 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a 6-pin cylinder in the Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The DL2217 ships standard with a conventional 6-pin cylinder in the Corbin Russwin L4 keyway, so the keyway is the deciding factor if the building is already keyed to one system.
9) We need a deadbolt keyed from both sides instead of a thumbturn. What should we order?
The Corbin Russwin DL2217 is a single cylinder unit with a thumbturn inside, so it will not accept a second key cylinder. For key-both-sides openings, the Design Hardware D1 Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty double cylinder deadbolt specified for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Dexter DB1000-DCT is a Grade 1 double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors. Confirm local egress code before specifying double cylinder.
10) Is the Arrow E61 SFIC deadlock a direct substitute for the DL2217 with an interchangeable core?
Not a direct swap on keying. The Arrow E61 26D IC is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadlock prepped for SFIC less core, covering 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so it takes a small format interchangeable core. The Corbin Russwin DL2217 is offered in CL6 less core LFIC 6-pin Corbin Russwin and CL7 IC 7-pin less core cylinder configurations, which are large format Corbin Russwin cores. If the facility standardizes on SFIC, the two key systems are not interchangeable.
11) Do I have to specify handing when ordering a DL2217 classroom deadlock?
No handing to call out. The DL2217 is non-handed, so the same part works on a left or right hand door without reversing anything. Specify finish, cylinder type and backset only.
12) Does the DL2217 deadlock support master keying for a school or campus?
It does. The DL2200 Series deadlock supports master keying, construction master keying, security keying, visual key control and concealed key control. The standard cylinder ships 0-bitted so a locksmith can pin it into an existing system, or you can order it less core and drop in cores from the system you already run.
13) What standard does the Corbin Russwin DL2200 deadlock meet?
The DL2200 Series is built to ANSI/BHMA E0170 Series, which is the operational designation for a cylindrical deadlock. Combined with the solid steel bolt and hardened free-spinning steel pin insert, that is what institutional specs normally call for on a classroom or corridor door.
14) Why a cylindrical deadlock instead of just adding a deadbolt to the lockset?
A cylindrical deadlock like the DL2217 is a bored, standalone bolt: it installs in its own cross-bore above the lockset and adds a 1 inch solid steel throw with no latch and no lever. Use it where you want auxiliary security on top of an existing knob or lever set. If you want the bolt and latch in one case, you want a mortise lock instead, not a bored deadlock.
15) Would a Bravura or Callan deadbolt work as a replacement for the DL2217 in a school?
Those are lighter grades. The Bravura 310B Elite and the rectangle Bravura single cylinder deadbolt are Grade 2 cylinder x thumbturn units, and the Callan 200S is Grade 3 with square trim. The Corbin Russwin DL2217 is a commercial cylindrical deadlock to the ANSI/BHMA E0170 series with a 1 inch throw solid steel bolt and a hardened free spinning steel pin insert, and it supports master keying, construction master keying, and visual key control for a keyed facility.
16) Can I use an Arrow E60 in place of the DL2217 on a classroom door?
No. The Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 non-keyed exit deadlock with a blank plate outside and thumbturn inside for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so there is no key access from the corridor side. The Corbin Russwin DL2217 is keyed outside with a thumbturn inside that retracts but will not project the bolt, which is the classroom arrangement where staff must control locking by key.
17) If the opening needs electronic access instead of a keyed deadbolt, what replaces the DL2217?
The Corbin Russwin DL2217 is a mechanical cylindrical deadlock operated by key outside. For credential-based access, the Dormakaba Saffire LX-D is an RFID electronic deadbolt with BLE and electronic lock override, the Codelocks CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt, and the Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel. Note the CL2210 is mortise prep and the CL2200 surface mounts, so the door prep differs from the DL2217's bored 2-3/4 inch backset.
18) We need a one-sided deadbolt for a storefront or stockroom door. Does the DL2217 do that?
The Corbin Russwin DL2217 requires both sides of the door: key outside, thumbturn inside. For a single-side application, the Callan 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt, and the Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock with a blank plate on the outside face and a thumbturn inside.
19) What finishes does the Corbin Russwin DL2217 come in?
Seven finishes: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil-rubbed satin bronze, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome, and BSP black suede powder coat. Every one of those is available with any of the three cylinder options, so matching existing hardware across a building is straightforward. 626 satin chrome is the usual commercial standard.
20) What is the difference between the DL2217 and the Dormakaba M1960 deadbolt?
Both are single cylinder cylinder-and-turn deadbolts. The Dormakaba M1960 is an M1000 Series unit supplied with no trim, while the Corbin Russwin DL2217 comes with a 2-1/4 by 1-1/8 inch wrought brass or bronze front, a 2-3/4 by 1-1/8 inch strike, and a choice of eight architectural finishes including 626 satin chrome and BSP black suede powder coat.
21) Is the Arrow 460 strike a replacement for the strike that comes with the DL2217?
No. The Arrow 460 is a mortise lock strike for latchbolt and deadbolt functions with a straight lip, sized for mortise lock prep on 1-3/4 inch doors. The Corbin Russwin DL2217 ships with a 2-3/4 inch by 1-1/8 inch strike matched to its bored cylindrical deadlock prep, so the two are not dimensionally interchangeable.
