Delaney Hardware D11820 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Delaney Derby entrance knobset be keyed to match my existing Kwikset or Schlage keys?
The Derby keyed entry knobset is ordered with a keyway choice of KW1 5-pin (the Kwikset keyway) or SC1 5-pin (the Schlage keyway), so it can be cut to work with the key system already on the building. You also pick the keying: keyed different, so each unit has its own key, or keyed alike, so a group of doors runs on one key. Both the keyway and the keying selection are required when you order.
2) How does the entrance function on the Derby knob actually lock?
There's a push button in the inside knob. Press it and the outside knob is locked until a key is used on the outside or the inside knob is turned, which releases the button. The inside knob always retracts the latch freely, so nobody gets trapped in the room. That is the standard keyed entry setup for an apartment or office door, not a classroom or storeroom function that stays locked on the outside all the time.
3) Is the Delaney Derby knobset rated for a commercial building or apartment turnover work?
The Derby is a Grade 3 cylindrical lockset and Delaney lists it as residential. That suits single-family rentals, condos and low-traffic interior openings. For a commercial corridor, leasing office or anything with heavy daily use, step up: the Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset, and the BEST 8K Series is a Grade 1 heavy duty entrance knob lock.
4) What is a direct alternative to the Delaney Derby Grade 3 entrance knobset from another brand?
For a like-for-like swap, the Callan Canova and Callan Santo are both Grade 3 entrance-function knobsets, and the Callan Edgewood covers the same entrance function at Grade 2. Cal-Royal's BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway, which matches the KW1 5-pin option the Derby can be ordered with. Pamex FTF Baron is another Grade 3 entrance/office knob lockset, listed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
5) I need a keyed knob for a commercial corridor with heavy traffic - is the Derby the wrong choice?
The Derby is a Grade 3 knobset designated for residential use, so for heavy commercial traffic step up the grade. The BEST 8K Series entrance-function single cylinder knob lock is Grade 1 heavy duty, and the Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical knob lock with a conventional cylinder rated for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Sargent's 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset if the opening should stay locked with key-only entry.
6) The door does not need a key - what knob should I use instead of the Delaney Derby?
The Derby is an entrance function with a key cylinder outside and a locking button inside. Where no locking is needed at all, passage knobsets include the Pamex FTF Baron in Grade 3, the Bravura Albany and Lynchburg in Grade 2, the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob in Grade 2 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 200P Polo passage knob supplied with a 6AL latch and round corner strike. For a bed or bath door that needs privacy but no key, the Pamex FTF privacy version is Grade 3 and the Cal-Royal BER20 is a Grade 3 privacy knob lock with brass trim.
7) Which keyed knob locks look like the Delaney Derby but will not work as an entrance lock?
Several knob products sit nearby but serve different functions. Single dummy trims such as the Schlage A170, BEST 6K single dummy, Cal-Royal BA40, Bravura Biloxi and Omnia 434/0 have no latch and no cylinder - they are pull-only trim. The Sargent 6G04 and 8XG04 are storeroom function, which keeps the outside knob locked at all times and does not offer the inside push-button unlocking the Derby provides. The Dexter C2000 classroom knob is keyed but locks and unlocks only from the outside key, and the Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim rather than a bored lockset.
8) What comes in the box with the Derby knobset, and do I need extra screws for a metal door?
Each Derby set ships with the knob and trim plate for both sides of the door, the latch mechanism, a standard spindle, a full-lip strike plate and mounting screws. The screws are combination screws that work for either wood or hollow metal door mounting, so you're not buying separate fasteners for a metal frame job.
9) I need matching passage and privacy knobs for the interior doors, not keyed entry. What do I use?
The Derby is keyed entrance only, so for bedroom and bathroom doors you need a privacy set and for hallways and closets a passage set. Within the Grade 3 residential range, the Pamex FTF Baron comes in both a privacy and a passage version, and Cal-Royal's Barrington line has the BER20 privacy knob alongside the BER00 entrance/office knob. If you want one style across all functions, pick a family that offers all three rather than mixing.
10) What's a close substitute for the Delaney Derby keyed entry knob if I want a Kwikset keyway already built in?
Two Grade 3 keyed entry knobs sit in the same class. The Cal-Royal BER00 is an entrance/office Grade 3 knob lock supplied with a Kwikset keyway and fits doors 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches. The Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is also Grade 3 for the same 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch range and ships with an adjustable round-corner latch and strike. The Derby's advantage is that you choose KW1 or SC1 at order time rather than being locked to one keyway.
11) Is the Derby a cylindrical bored lock that drops into a standard 2-1/8 inch prep?
Yes, it's a bored cylindrical knobset, so it installs through a cross bore in the door face with an edge bore for the latch. It ships with a full-lip strike plate, which is what you want for a wood frame where the lip covers the jamb edge. If your existing frame has a square-corner or round-corner ANSI strike box, confirm the full-lip strike suits it before you pull the old lock.
12) Does the Delaney Derby work on a fire-rated door, and what should I use if it needs to be rated?
For a fire-rated opening, choose a lock that is listed for it. The Falcon W101 Grade 2 cylindrical knob lock carries a fire rating and has a 2-3/4 inch backset in a passage/closet latch function, and the Falcon X101 Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical knobset is also fire rated and covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch thick. The Delaney Derby is a Grade 3 residential entrance knobset.
13) How does the Delaney Derby compare to the Kwikset 400P Polo keyed entry knob?
Both are keyed entry knobsets for residential doors. The Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is Grade 3 and listed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, shipping with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike; the 400P version comes with a 6AL latch and RCS strike. The Delaney Derby is also Grade 3 entrance function and ships with the latch, standard spindle, full-lip strike plate and combination screws that suit wood or metal doors, and is ordered with either a KW1 5-pin or SC1 5-pin keyway plus keyed different or keyed alike.
14) What is a decorative alternative to the Delaney Derby knobset for a front door?
The Derby is a cylindrical entrance knobset in US15 Satin Nickel or US12P Tuscany Bronze. For a more traditional or decorative look on a keyed opening, Deltana offers entry knobs including the 3381 Egg, 6171 Round and 6901 Portland, with the 3381 and 6171 listed for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch thick and the 6901 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. Note these are styled sets rather than Grade 3 cylindrical locksets like the Derby.
15) Is there a Grade 3 keyed entry knob alternative to the Derby from a different maker for rental turns?
Yes. The Master Lock BC Series BC01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry biscuit knob, the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo is a Grade 3 keyed entry knob for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway for the same door thickness range. The Delaney Derby matches them at Grade 3 entrance function and is offered in US15 Satin Nickel and US12P Tuscany Bronze.
16) What should I use instead of the Delaney Derby if I do not want to issue keys at all?
The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with an auto-locking passage function, fitting doors 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch thick, so entry is by code rather than key. The Delaney Derby is a keyed entrance knobset ordered in a KW1 or SC1 5-pin keyway.
17) How far does the Derby knob stick out from the door face?
Projection is 2-3/8 inches, with a rose length of 2.5625 inches. Worth checking where the door swings against a wall, a cabinet, or a second door in a tight vestibule, since a knob projecting 2-3/8 inches will contact anything closer than that at full swing.
18) What finishes does the Delaney Derby entrance knobset come in?
Two: US15 Satin Nickel and US12P Tuscany Bronze. If you're matching a building where the rest of the openings are already satin nickel, US15 is the one; Tuscany Bronze is the darker oil-rubbed style tone.
