Delaney Hardware 240601 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Delaney Kellington dummy handleset actually lock, or is it just a pull?
No lock and no latch. The Kellington dummy handleset is a fixed exterior trim piece, used as the counterpart to functioning hardware or on an opening where nothing needs to latch. It mounts to the door face and does not move. If you need the door to key and secure, you want the single cylinder keyed version of the handleset instead, which takes a key outside and a thumbturn inside.
2) What door thickness does the Delaney Kellington handleset fit?
1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, which covers standard residential entry doors as well as older 1-3/8 inch doors. No thickness spacer or separate kit to specify, the design handles the whole range.
3) Do I need to know the door handing before ordering a Kellington handleset?
Handing does not matter. The Kellington is built to fit left hand and right hand doors, so you do not have to work out the swing before you order. For a property manager buying several at once for different openings, that means one part number covers them all.
4) I'm ordering exterior only, do I get the inside trim too?
Exterior trim only. The Kellington uses a split trim design, so the outside handleset and the interior side are separate pieces. If you are replacing a full set, order the inside trim as well; if you already have matching Delaney interior trim on the door, the exterior piece alone finishes it. Split trim is also what lets it go into either new construction or a remodel where the door is already prepped.
5) Is a Grade 3 handleset good enough for a rental or apartment entry door?
Grade 3 is the residential duty level, and Delaney lists the Kellington as residential. For a single family rental or a condo unit door it is the normal specification. For a high traffic multi-family entry or anything on a commercial opening, step up: the Bravura Savannah, Jacksonville, Austin and Montgomery handlesets are all Grade 2. Note the Kellington dummy has no latch at all, so duty grade here is about the trim standing up to handling, not about security.
6) What's the difference between a dummy handleset and a passage set?
A dummy is fixed trim, it does not turn and there is no latch behind it, so the door has to be held shut by something else, a ball catch, a roller catch, or an active leaf on a pair. A passage set turns and throws a latch that holds the door closed without keying. If the door needs to stay shut on its own, the Kellington dummy is the wrong choice and a passage function set such as the Schlage Residential F10 Accent lever or the J10 Builders Basics knob is what you want.
7) Is there a higher graded handleset than the Delaney Kellington for a heavier traffic entry door?
The Kellington is rated Grade 3 and is designated residential. Bravura handlesets sit a grade above: the 913-Savannah handleset with 615 interior plate and 906-Macon interior knob, the 915-Jacksonville handleset with the same 615 plate and 906-Macon knob, and the 971-Austin handleset with that same interior trim are all Grade 2, as is the 973-Montgomery handleset with 672 interior plate and 939-Charlotte interior lever. The Montgomery is the one of the four that finishes with an interior lever rather than a knob, which matters if the facility standardizes on levers for ADA-friendly operation.
8) What is the closest alternative to the Delaney Kellington dummy handleset if the door actually needs to lock?
The Kellington exterior trim covered here is a dummy function, meaning it is a pull with no latch or cylinder behind it. If the opening needs a working key, the Callan Visconti single cylinder handleset with interior trim is a Grade 3 handleset with a keyed single cylinder, and the Callan Briona single cylinder handleset with interior trim is the same Grade 3 keyed configuration in a different design. Both replace a non-latching trim with a full keyed entry set at the same Grade 3 rating the Kellington carries.
9) Can a passage lockset be used instead of a dummy handleset on a door that does not need to lock?
They solve different problems. A dummy trim is fixed and has no latch at all, so the door has to be held shut by a catch or a second point of hardware. A passage set has a working latch that keeps the door closed without keying it: the Schlage Residential F10 Accent lever passage lock with dual backset latch is a Grade 2 passage/hall/closet function fitting doors 1-3/8 in. to 1-3/4 in., and the Schlage Residential J10 Builders Basics knob is a Grade 3 hall/closet function with a 2-3/8 in. or 2-3/4 in. adjustable backset and round corner faceplate, also for 1-3/8 in. to 1-3/4 in. doors. Both cover the same door thickness range the Kellington is designed for, so a swap between a dummy and a passage set does not change the door prep thickness.
10) Is a dummy handleset the same thing as a single cylinder handleset?
No, and this is the substitution that gets ordered wrong most often. Both look nearly identical from the street because the exterior grip and plate are the same style, but the Kellington is dummy function - a counterpart to functioning hardware, used where a latch is not needed. A single cylinder handleset such as the Callan Visconti or the Callan Briona, both Grade 3 handlesets with interior trim, has a working keyed cylinder on the outside. If the door is an active entry, the dummy will not secure it no matter how closely the trim matches.
11) What finishes does the Delaney Kellington dummy handleset come in?
Three: US15 Satin Nickel, US19 Black, and US12P Tuscany Bronze. The Kellington is a square, beveled design, so the black reads modern and the Tuscany Bronze traditional on the same body. If you are matching other openings in a building, pick the finish code rather than the name, since US15 and US19 are the standard designations you will see on the rest of your hardware.
12) What tools and parts do I need to install a Kellington handleset?
A screwdriver. All parts and instructions ship in the box, and the adjustable latch is made to drop into standard door preparations, so there is no boring or special tooling for a normal prep. On the dummy version there is no latch to adjust, which makes it the fastest of the family to hang.
13) Can I use a dummy handleset on the inactive leaf of a double entry door?
That is a standard use for it. On a pair, the inactive leaf is usually held by flush bolts and needs trim that matches the active leaf without a latch behind it, which is exactly what the Kellington dummy is. Order it in the same finish as the active leaf hardware, US15 Satin Nickel, US19 Black, or US12P Tuscany Bronze, and specify the flush bolts separately since they are not part of this handleset.
14) Will the Kellington fit the existing bore pattern on a door I'm remodeling?
The Kellington is built around standard door preparations, and the split trim design is specifically there so it goes into a replacement or remodel opening as easily as a new door. Since the dummy version carries no latch and no cylinder, the exterior plate mounts through the existing face prep rather than needing a new latch bore.
15) What is the simplest non-locking option for an interior door where a full handleset is more trim than the opening needs?
A handleset carries a long exterior plate and needs the matching door prep for it. Where only a knob is wanted, the Schlage Residential J10 Builders Basics knob is a Grade 3 hall/closet knob with a 2-3/8 in. or 2-3/4 in. adjustable backset and a round corner faceplate, and the Emtek Select Brass conical stem dark walnut knob is a passage/hall/closet knob for a wood-accent look. Both are knob-only trim rather than a plate-and-grip handleset, so the door face takes a bore instead of the taller handleset prep.
16) Would an electronic lock work in place of the Delaney Kellington dummy handleset on a credentialed opening?
They are not interchangeable on the same leaf. The Kellington dummy trim is mechanical and has no latch or credential of any kind. The Paxton PaxLock Pro Galaxy lever latch lock is a battery powered access control lock with a dual frequency reader running 13.56 MHz, 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth with AES128, listed to UL, FCC and ISED, and it is built for a 1-3/4 in. door thickness. That single thickness is the check to run first: the Kellington accommodates 1-3/8 in. through 1-3/4 in., so a door at the thin end of that range is inside the Kellington range but not the PaxLock Pro spec.
17) For a matched pair of entry doors where only one leaf is active, what pairs with the Delaney Kellington?
The Kellington dummy is the inactive-leaf half of that pairing - dummy function exists as a counterpart to functioning door hardware. For the active leaf, a keyed set in a comparable Grade 3 handleset format is the Callan Visconti single cylinder handleset with interior trim or the Callan Briona single cylinder handleset with interior trim. Stepping up a grade on the active leaf, the Bravura 913-Savannah and 915-Jacksonville handlesets, each with a 615 interior plate and 906-Macon interior knob, are Grade 2.
18) Does switching from the Delaney Kellington to another set require determining door handing?
The Kellington fits both left hand and right hand doors, so the swing does not have to be determined before ordering, and its interior universal round knob works on either swing. Among the alternatives, the Schlage Residential F10 Accent lever passage lock ships with a dual backset latch, and the Schlage Residential J10 Builders Basics knob has a 2-3/8 in. or 2-3/4 in. adjustable backset - both cover either standard bore location without a separate part. The backset adjustment and the handing question are separate checks, so confirm both against the existing prep before substituting.
