Delaney Hardware 3V5042 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the storeroom function on the Delaney E Series CT lever actually do at the door?
The outside lever is always locked. You retract the deadlocking latch with a key in the outside lever, or by turning the inside lever, which is always free for egress. There is no button or thumbturn to leave it unlocked, so a storeroom, electrical room, or mechanical closet stays secure every time the door shuts behind someone.
2) Will the Delaney E Series CT leverset fit a 1-3/8 inch door, and how thick can I go?
It covers 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inch doors on an adjustable mounting plate, so both older 1-3/8 interior doors and standard 1-3/4 commercial doors are handled without a separate kit.
3) What door prep does this Delaney cylindrical leverset need, and will it drop into an existing bore?
Standard cylindrical prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore. Latch face prep depends on backset, 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches for the 2-3/4 backset and 1 x 2-1/4 inches for the 2-3/8. If your door already carries a 161 cylindrical prep at either standard backset, it goes straight in.
4) Which backset do I order on the Delaney E Series lever?
Backset is a required choice at 2-3/4 or 2-3/8 inches. The 2-3/4 UL latch is standard and is what most commercial openings use; 2-3/8 is the optional shorter one common on residential-width stiles. Measure from the door edge to the center of the existing bore before you pick.
5) Will this Delaney lever latch into the strike already in my frame?
The latch throws 1/2 inch in stainless steel and ships with the 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike (9109). That is the full-lip strike used in commercial metal frames. If your frame has a T-strike or a small residential strike, plan on reworking the frame or reusing your existing strike only if the 1/2 inch throw fully engages it.
6) Can I key this Delaney leverset to match the Schlage or Kwikset keys already on my building?
Keyway is a required selection: SC4 6-pin is standard, with SC1 5-pin and KW1 5-pin available. SC1 and SC4 are Schlage keyways and KW1 is the Kwikset keyway, so you can bring it onto an existing key system. Keyed alike and keyed different are both offered when you order.
7) What is the difference between the standard cylinder and the SFIC version of this Delaney lever?
Two builds are sold. The standard cylinder version arrives keyed in the keyway you select. The SFIC version takes a small format 6-pin interchangeable core and ships less core, so you supply cores from your own system; on that one you select None for both keyway and keying. Facilities running a master system with their own SFIC stock usually want the less core build.
8) I need a lever for a single-occupancy restroom instead of a keyed storeroom lock - what should I use?
The Delaney E Series CT storeroom leverset is the wrong function for a restroom: its outside lever is always locked and is released only by key, so anyone entering needs a key. For a single-occupancy restroom, use a privacy function lever such as the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20, which is a privacy leverset with a red/green occupancy indicator so waiting occupants can see at a glance whether the room is in use. Both are cylindrical levers prepped for the same 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets, so the door prep carries over if you are swapping one opening from keyed to privacy.
9) My door is 2 inches thick - will the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 work, or do I need the Delaney?
The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 adjusts from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness, so a 2 inch door is outside its range. The Delaney E Series CT leverset uses an adjustable mounting plate covering 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch, so it fits the thicker leaf. Note the functions differ - the Delaney CT here is keyed storeroom, while the Cal-Royal is privacy with an occupancy indicator - so confirm the opening actually calls for a keyed lever before substituting on thickness alone.
10) Is a Grade 2 lever strong enough for a school or office storeroom door?
It is a commercial Grade 2 lockset that meets and exceeds BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000, Grade 2 at 400,000 cycles, and also meets the FF-H-106C federal standard. That covers normal storeroom, back of house, and office traffic. For high abuse entrances and main doors taking constant public use, a Grade 1 cylindrical or mortise lock is the better call.
11) Do I need to specify handing for the Delaney E Series CT leverset?
No handing to specify. It is a cylindrical bored lockset, and the latch is field reversible on this style of lock, so one part covers left and right hand doors. What you do have to specify is backset, keyway, and keying.
12) Will this lever hold up if someone shoulders the door or grabs the lever hard?
The CT lever uses a clutch, so the outside lever spins free under force instead of transmitting torque to the chassis, which is what protects the lock from vandalism and from someone hitting the door in a hurry. It also uses an independent torsion spring to keep the lever from sagging, an anti-friction latch retractor, removable through bolts, and concealed mounting screws.
13) What replacement latch do I order if I need a different backset later?
The entrance latch used with this storeroom lock is the E9070T at 2-3/4 inch backset, or the E9060T at 2-3/8 inch. Faceplate is square corner, 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches on the 2-3/4 latch and 1 x 2-1/4 inches on the 2-3/8. The E9073T and E9063T latches are the passage and privacy versions, not what a keyed storeroom lock uses.
14) Is the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 an equivalent to the Delaney E Series CT storeroom lever?
No - they are both commercial cylindrical levers on the same bored prep, but they do different jobs. The Delaney E Series CT is a keyed storeroom lock certified to BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 2 at 400,000 cycles, with a deadlocking latch and a key cylinder available in SC4 6-pin, KW1 5-pin, SC1 5-pin, or small-format interchangeable core. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is a standard duty commercial privacy lever with no key cylinder; it locks from inside and shows a red/green occupancy indicator. If your spec calls for a Grade 2 keyed lever on a storage or mechanical room, the Delaney is the one that matches.
15) Will this Delaney lever match the other satin chrome hardware in my building?
The finish is US26D dull chrome, the satin chrome finish that dominates commercial openings and pairs with the usual satin stainless closers, hinges, and exit devices.
