Delaney Hardware D26320 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the storeroom function on the Delaney ET lever actually do at the door?
The outside lever stays locked at all times. You retract the deadlocking latch bolt with a key in the outside lever, or just turn the inside lever to get out. There's no button or thumbturn to leave it unlocked, so the door re-locks behind every person. That's the usual choice for storage rooms, mechanical closets, and any door you never want left on the latch.
2) Does the Delaney ET leverset drop into an existing 161 lockset prep?
It uses the standard bored-door prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore, and a backset of either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches. If the door you're replacing was drilled for a common cylindrical knob or lever, the ET goes back in the same holes. Latch face is round corner and it ships with a full lip round corner strike, so a square-corner frame prep would need the strike swapped or the frame filed.
3) Do I need to order the Delaney ET lever for a left or right hand door?
No handing to specify. The ET lever is field reversible for either left or right hand doors, so one part covers both swings. For a property manager stocking spares across a building, that means a single shelf item rather than two.
4) What keyway options come on the Delaney ET storeroom lever, and can I key it to my existing system?
Two keyways to pick from at order: KW1 5-pin or SC1 5-pin. You also choose keyed different or keyed alike. The cylinder is solid brass 5-pin and pulls out of the lever for re-keying, so a locksmith can pin it to an existing KW1 or SC1 master system on site instead of returning the lock.
5) Is the Delaney ET lever rated for a commercial opening or a fire door?
It's a Grade 3 lockset catalogued for residential duty. Grade 3 is the lightest of the three ANSI/BHMA cycle and strength tiers, so for apartment interiors, single-family, and light-traffic storage doors it's appropriate. High-traffic commercial entries, schools, or any door where the spec calls Grade 2 or Grade 1 need a heavier lock.
6) I need a lever for a restroom door instead of a keyed storeroom lock - what should I use?
The Delaney ET storeroom leverset is a keyed function with the outside lever always locked, so it is the wrong function for a restroom. For that opening, the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is a privacy indicator leverset with a red/green occupancy indicator, which gives occupants a thumbturn-style privacy function and shows at a glance whether the room is in use. Both share the same 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backset coverage and both adjust for doors from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick, so the door prep is the same either way.
7) Is the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 a direct replacement for a Delaney ET storeroom lever?
Not functionally. The INDLEV-20 is a privacy indicator lock, while the Delaney ET D26320 is a keyed storeroom lock with a deadlocking latch bolt operated by key in the outside lever or by rotating the inside lever. The two will drop into the same door prep - both cover 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets and both adjust across 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors - but the INDLEV-20 takes no cylinder, so if you need a key on the outside the ET is the one to stay with.
8) Will the Delaney ET lever work on a hollow metal door, or only wood?
Both. It ships with combination screws that mount to wood or metal doors, and the screws are concealed in the trim once assembled. Construction is all metal throughout.
9) Does the Delaney ET storeroom leverset come with a latch and strike, or do I buy those separately?
Latch is included, round corner face, along with a full lip round corner strike and the mounting screws. Nothing else is needed to hang it on a pre-bored door. The one thing to settle before ordering is backset, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4, measured from the door edge to the center of the 2-1/8 inch cross bore.
10) I am specifying levers for a commercial building - how does the Delaney ET compare to the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 on duty rating?
The Delaney ET D26320 carries a Grade 3 rating and is classified as a residential-duty lock. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is rated standard duty commercial. If your spec calls for a commercial-duty lever throughout the building, the INDLEV-20 sits in that class, though it is a privacy indicator function rather than a keyed storeroom - so it covers restrooms and offices, not the keyed openings.
11) Can I mix Delaney ET storeroom levers and Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 levers on the same floor without changing the door prep?
Yes on the prep. The Delaney ET is bored for a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, 1 inch edge bore and either a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset, and it adjusts from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 also covers 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets and the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, so a standard cylindrical prep accepts either. Use the ET on keyed storeroom openings and the INDLEV-20 where you want a privacy lock with an occupancy indicator. Lever styling and finish differ between the two brands, so confirm appearance if the doors face each other.
12) How far does the Delaney ET lever stick out from the door face, and how long is the lever?
Projection is 2-5/16 inches off the face and the lever itself measures 4-1/8 inches. Worth checking if the door swings back against a wall or sits next to a return wall or a cabinet run where a long lever would foul.
13) What finish is the Delaney ET storeroom lever, and will it match other satin nickel hardware in the building?
US15 Satin Nickel. That's the standard BHMA finish code for satin nickel, so it lines up with other hardware spec'd US15 across hinges, closers, and deadbolts in the same building.
