Delaney Hardware 3M5022 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Delaney E Series MD privacy leverset fit a 1-3/8 inch door, and how thick can the door be?
Door range is 1-3/8 inches up to 2 inches, handled by an adjustable mounting plate, so the same lock covers a thin older interior door and a 1-3/4 inch commercial slab without ordering a different part. That 2 inch top end is wider than most bored locks reach, which matters on doors that have been faced or built up.
2) What backset do I order for a Delaney E Series MD privacy lever, and does the latch face change with it?
Backset is a required choice at order time: 2-3/4 inch is the UL latch standard, 2-3/8 inch is the option. The faceplate changes with it. At 2-3/4 inch the latch face is 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inches; at 2-3/8 inch it is 1 x 2-1/4 inches, square corner. The privacy latch itself is the E9073T at 2-3/4 inch and the E9063T at 2-3/8 inch. If you are matching an existing mortise pocket in the door edge, measure that face before you pick.
3) Can I drop a Delaney E Series privacy lever into the holes already bored in my door?
The prep is the standard bored-lock pattern: 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face and a 1 inch edge bore. If your existing knob or lever came out of a 2-1/8 inch cross bore on a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, the E Series goes back in with no new drilling. Only the latch faceplate mortise may need attention, since it is sized to the backset you order.
4) Will this Delaney privacy lever latch into the strike plate that is already in my frame?
The bolt throws 1/2 inch in stainless steel and ships with a 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike (9109). A 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike is the full-lip commercial size cut into a metal frame, so if your frame is already prepped for one, this drops straight in. If your existing strike is the small residential T-strike or a full-lip plate at a different height, you are cutting the frame or reusing your old plate, and the 1/2 inch throw is short enough that strike alignment has to be right.
5) Is the Delaney E Series MD lever rated for a commercial building, and what grade is it?
Grade 2, and it is built to commercial duty rather than residential. It meets and exceeds BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000, Grade 2 at 400,000 cycles, and meets the FF-H-106C federal standard. For a multi-family unit bathroom, an office restroom, or a dorm bedroom, Grade 2 at that cycle count is the normal specification. A high-traffic public restroom in a school or stadium is where a facility usually steps up to Grade 1 instead.
6) What is the difference between the Delaney E Series MD privacy leverset and the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20?
Both are privacy lever locks that fit 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets, but they answer different questions at the door. The Delaney E Series MD lever is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lockset with an interior locking mechanism and an exterior pin hole for emergency release, and its adjustable mounting plate covers doors from 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is a privacy indicator leverset: it carries a red/green occupancy indicator so someone in a corridor can see whether the room is in use without trying the lever, and it is a standard duty commercial lever with an adjustable door thickness range of 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. For a restroom or changing room where occupancy needs to be visible, the indicator is the deciding feature; for a door between 1-3/4 inch and 2 inch thick, the Delaney range covers it.
7) Which privacy lever should I spec when the submittal calls for an ANSI grade?
The Delaney E Series MD privacy lever is a Grade 2 lockset that meets and exceeds BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000, GR2 at 400,000 cycles and meets the FF-H-106C federal standard, so it answers a submittal that names a grade and a cycle count. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is described as standard duty commercial grade with a red/green occupancy indicator - it is specified by duty description rather than by an A156.2 grade number, so it suits an occupancy-visibility requirement more directly than a grade-numbered submittal line.
8) Can a privacy lever like this go on a fire rated door?
The latch bolt on the Delaney E Series meets a 3-hour fire rating. Worth knowing what that does and does not cover: a privacy function has no key on the outside and unlocks with an emergency pin, so it is used on bathroom and bedroom openings. On a rated corridor or stair door you are normally on an entry or storeroom function instead.
9) How does someone get into a bathroom if the Delaney privacy lever is locked from inside?
There is a small pin hole on the outside rose. A straight emergency tool or stiff wire through that hole releases the interior locking mechanism, which is what you want on a bedroom or bathroom door in a rental or hotel where staff has to get in. The locking button is on the inside only; there is no keyed cylinder on this function.
10) Do I need to worry about handing when I order a Delaney E Series cylindrical lever?
No handing to specify. It is a bored cylindrical lockset with an independent torsion spring in each lever, so the lever mounts and returns the same on a left or right hand door. That is one less thing to get wrong when you are ordering twenty units for a building and cannot walk every opening.
11) I want a lever that shows vacant or occupied on the outside instead of a blank rose. What should I use?
The Delaney E Series MD privacy lever has no indicator, just the emergency pin hole. For a visible red/green occupancy indicator, the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 privacy indicator leverset is the option, in 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets, adjustable for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. Note that thickness range stops at 1-3/4 inches, so if your door is thicker than that the Delaney is the one that still fits at up to 2 inches.
12) Is a privacy indicator lever a drop-in substitute for a standard privacy lever?
Functionally they are close but not the same lock. The Delaney E Series MD privacy lever locks from the inside and unlocks from the corridor through a small pin hole, which is what most bedroom and bathroom doors need. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 adds a red/green occupancy indicator on top of the privacy function, which is a visible status display for restrooms and single-occupancy rooms. Both list 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets, so the bore centerline matches, but the indicator model reads as a different trim on the door - if the goal is to match the levers already hanging on the other doors of a floor, the indicator will not look like the rest.
13) What is a panic proof clutch lever and does it matter on a bathroom door?
The E Series MD lever uses a clutch, push/turn panic proof design. If someone yanks or hangs on the lever, the clutch lets the outside lever spin free instead of transferring that force into the spindle and breaking the lock. On tenant bathrooms and kid-facing openings in schools or apartments, that is the failure mode that causes most callbacks, so it is the feature that keeps a Grade 2 lock in service.
14) What finishes does the Delaney E Series MD privacy lever come in, and will it match the other doors in my building?
Two finishes: US26D dull chrome and US19 black. US26D is the standard satin chrome that matches most existing commercial lever and hinge hardware, so it is the safe pick when you are adding to an occupied building. US19 is flat black for a contemporary package. If your other openings are brass, bronze, or nickel, this lever will not match them.
15) How do the through bolts and mounting screws go on this Delaney lever, and will you see them?
Mounting screws are concealed behind the rose, and the through bolts are removable. On the job that means a clean face with no exposed fasteners on the interior side, and a lock you can pull off a door for rekeying or refinishing without destroying the trim. The anti-friction latch retractor keeps the latch moving on doors that have settled slightly against the stop.
