Delaney Hardware D14820 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Delaney Derby passage knobset lock, or is it just a latch?
No lock at all. The Derby is a passage function knobset, so both knobs always turn and the latch simply holds the door shut. It is the right choice for hallways, closets and rooms where nobody needs to lock the door. If you need a thumbturn for a bedroom or bath, you want a privacy knob instead, such as the Pamex FTF Baron privacy knob or the Dexter C2000 privacy ball knob.
2) Is a Grade 3 knobset like the Delaney Derby good enough for an apartment building?
The Derby is Grade 3 and classified as residential, which suits interior unit doors, closets and hallways in a house or apartment. For a corridor, an office or any opening with commercial traffic, step up a grade: the Dexter C2000 passage ball knob and the Corbin Russwin CK4410 are Grade 2 passage options, and the Schlage D10S and Corbin Russwin CK4310 are Grade 1 passage knobs.
3) Can a dummy knob be used in place of a passage knobset?
No. A dummy knob is fixed trim with no latch, so it will not hold a door closed. The Cal-Royal BA40, Schlage A170 single dummy trim, BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, Bravura Biloxi, and Omnia 434/0 are all dummy function. The Delaney Derby passage knobset ships with a latch mechanism, standard spindle, full-lip strike plate and mounting screws, so it actually latches the opening.
4) What is the closest Grade 3 passage knob equivalent to the Delaney Derby passage knobset from another brand?
The Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in passage function is the closest match: it is also a Grade 3 knob lockset with passage/hall/closet function, and it lists a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. The Delaney Derby is likewise a Grade 3 passage knobset for non-keyed closet, hallway and interior room openings.
5) I need a passage knob for a high-traffic commercial corridor instead of a residential Grade 3 unit. What should I use?
Step up to a commercial-graded passage knob. The Schlage D10S passage latch is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical non-keyed knob lock with an Orbit knob, and the Falcon X101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage knobset that is fire rated and covers doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch. The Delaney Derby is a Grade 3 passage knobset listed for residential use.
6) The door is a bedroom or bathroom that needs to lock. What replaces a passage knobset there?
Use a privacy knob instead. Same-grade options include the Pamex FTF Baron knob lockset in privacy function and the Cal-Royal BER20 privacy knob lock with brass trim, both Grade 3 for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. Grade 2 privacy alternatives include the Dexter C2000 Series privacy ball knob. The Delaney Derby is a passage function knobset with no locking mechanism.
7) How far does the Derby knob stick out from the door face?
Projection is 2-3/8 inches, with an overall length of 2.5625 inches. Worth checking if the door swings back against a wall or a cabinet run, or where a pull-side clearance is tight.
8) Do I need to order a strike plate separately for the Derby knobset?
No. A full-lip strike plate is packed with the set along with the latch and screws, so a standard wood jamb install is covered out of the box.
9) Is the Derby a cylindrical bored lockset that fits a standard door prep?
Yes, it is a cylindrical bored knobset, the type that goes into the standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore that nearly every prepped residential door already has. Both knobs mount through that bore on a spindle, so it drops into an existing knob prep without new machining.
10) I need matching Delaney-style knobs for both a hall door and a front door. Is the Derby keyed?
The Derby is non-keyed, passage only, so it cannot serve an exterior or lockable door. For a keyed entrance in a similar Grade 3 residential class, look at the Callan Canova or Callan Santo entrance knobsets, the Pamex FTF Baron entrance/office knob, or the Cal-Royal BER00 entrance knob with a Kwikset keyway if you need to key it into an existing Kwikset system.
11) Is the Delaney Derby handed? Do I need to specify left or right?
No handing to specify. A cylindrical passage knobset is non-handed by design, the latch bolt reverses so it works on a left or right hand door. You only choose the finish when you order.
12) Is there a mid-grade alternative between a Grade 3 residential passage knob and a Grade 1 commercial one?
Yes. Grade 2 passage knob options include the Dexter C2000 Series passage cylindrical ball knob lock (non-clutching, non-keyed, 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors), the Corbin Russwin CK4410 passage/closet Global knob, the Arrow MK01 and RK01 non-keyed passage knobs, and the Falcon W101 passage/closet latch with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a fire rating. The Delaney Derby is Grade 3.
13) What other residential-style passage knobsets come in a decorative trim so I can match an existing look?
Bravura offers Grade 2 passage knobsets with different trim shapes: the Albany and Lynchburg with round trim, and the Dallas with rectangle trim in US4 Satin Brass. Baldwin Estate passage knobs include the 5011 Colonial with 5058 rose and the 5000 Baltimore knob with 5048 rose, a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike. The Delaney Derby passage knobset comes in US15 Satin Nickel and US12P Tuscany Bronze.
14) I need a passage knob with an adjustable backset for doors prepped both 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch. What should I look at?
The Kwikset 200P-CP Polo passage knob ships with a round corner adjustable latch and round corner strike, and the Sure-Loc Bergen round knob is sold in a 6-pack with an adjustable backset. The Delaney Derby passage knobset ships with a standard spindle, full-lip strike plate and combination screws suited to wood or metal doors.
15) What finishes does the Delaney Derby passage knob come in?
Two: US15 Satin Nickel and US12P Tuscany Bronze. If you are matching other openings in a unit, satin nickel is the common pairing with brushed nickel bath and cabinet hardware; the Tuscany Bronze is the darker oil-rubbed style tone.
