Delaney Hardware 311422 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Delaney Orlyn knobset work with a 2-3/8 inch backset or a 2-3/4 inch backset?
Both. The Orlyn ships with a 6-way adjustable latch that sets to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, so you don't have to measure the existing bore before you order. Those are the two backsets used on virtually every bored door in North America, so on a replacement job the latch will land on your existing hole either way.
2) Will the Orlyn knob latch into the strike plate that's already in my door frame?
Probably, but check the throw. The Orlyn's bolt throws 1/2 inch and its latch face is a 1 inch x 2-1/4 inch round corner faceplate. The strike in the box is a 1-3/4 x 2-1/4 inch full lip round corner strike (9103). If the frame currently has a square corner strike or a T-strike mortise, the round corner faceplate and strike won't sit in that cutout without rework, and you'd want to swap the strike rather than force the fit.
3) What does the entrance function on the Delaney Orlyn actually do when someone locks it?
Push the button on the inside knob and the outside knob locks. It stays locked until a key is turned outside or the inside knob is rotated. That's the standard front-door setup: you can leave for the day locked out, and anyone leaving from inside just turns the knob, no thumbturn needed. Delaney also calls the Orlyn panic proof, meaning the inside knob always retracts the latch regardless of the lock state.
4) Can I get the Delaney Orlyn keyed to my Kwikset keys, or is it Schlage only?
You pick the keyway when you order. The Orlyn is offered in SC1 5-pin or KW1 5-pin, so it will run on either a Schlage-keyed building or a Kwikset-keyed one without rekeying on arrival. You also choose keyed different or keyed alike, so a property manager doing several units can put every door on the same key from the factory.
5) Is a Grade 2 residential knobset like the Delaney Orlyn enough for an apartment entry door, or do I need Grade 1?
For apartment and single-family entry doors, the Orlyn is the right class. It is a Grade 2 lockset that Delaney classes as residential, which suits unit entries, front and back doors, and interior rooms wanting a key. For a high-traffic commercial opening, a school corridor, or a stairwell, step up to a Grade 1 cylindrical knob such as the BEST 8K Series entrance knob or the Sargent 8XG04 storeroom knob, both of which we carry as heavy duty Grade 1.
6) I'm replacing an existing knob on a rental unit door. Will the Delaney Orlyn go into the same holes?
If the existing lock is a standard bored knob, yes. The Orlyn wants a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, a 1 inch edge bore, and either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the prep on essentially every residential knob and lever made. The adjustable latch handles the backset without you measuring. Where it will not go in cleanly is a door prepped for a mortise lock or a deadbolt-only bore, since neither of those matches the cross bore.
7) What is the closest Grade 2 keyed entrance knobset to the Delaney Orlyn from another brand?
The Callan Edgewood is a Grade 2 entrance knobset, the same grade and lock function as the Delaney Orlyn entrance knobset. The Callan Roland is also a Grade 2 entrance knobset. Both cover the same keyed-entry duty as the Orlyn, which uses an SC1 5-pin standard cylinder and a 6-way adjustable latch fitting 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets, so the swap comes down to knob styling and keyway rather than function.
8) Is there a heavier duty keyed entrance knob lock than the Delaney Orlyn for a high traffic commercial door?
The BEST 8K Series entrance function single cylinder knob lock is Grade 1 and heavy duty, a step up from the Grade 2 Delaney Orlyn entrance knobset, which is designated for residential use. The Corbin Russwin CK4851 is a Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical knob lock with a conventional cylinder and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness range. For an entrance opening on a busy commercial corridor, either carries a higher ANSI grade than the Orlyn.
9) Does a dummy knob work as a substitute for a keyed entrance knobset?
No. A dummy knob is fixed trim with no latch, so it cannot secure or even hold an operating door. The Schlage A170 single dummy trim, the BEST 6K Series single dummy trim, and the Bravura Biloxi are all Grade 2 dummy function knobs, and the Emtek Arts and Crafts Hammered Egg dummy ships as a pair. The Delaney Orlyn is an entrance knobset that includes a latch mechanism, locking spindle, two keys and a full-lip strike plate.
10) The door is thicker than 1-3/4 inches. What keyed knob lock fits when the Delaney Orlyn does not?
The Orlyn is built for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a thicker leaf, the Corbin Russwin CK4851 Grade 1 entrance/office cylindrical knob lock covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Deltana 3381 Egg Knob entry and Deltana 6171 Round Knob entry both cover 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch. The Falcon X101 Grade 1 passage knobset goes to 2-1/4 inch, though it is passage function rather than keyed.
11) For a storeroom door that stays locked, is an entrance knobset like the Delaney Orlyn the right function?
No. The Orlyn entrance function has an inside button that locks the outside knob until a key is used outside or the inside knob is rotated, so staff can leave it unlocked. Storeroom function keeps the outside knob locked at all times. The Sargent 6G04 is a Grade 2 storeroom/closet single cylinder knob lock, and the Sargent 8XG04 is a Grade 1 heavy duty storeroom/closet knob lock with a 2-3/4 inch backset.
12) Which keyed entry knob uses a Kwikset keyway if I am keying to an existing Kwikset system?
The Delaney Orlyn entrance knobset is offered with a KW1 5-pin standard keyway as well as SC1 5-pin. Among comparable keyed knobs, the Cal-Royal BER00 Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock is supplied with a Kwikset keyway. Either can be brought onto a KW1 system; the Orlyn also offers keyed alike or keyed different at order.
13) I need a fire rated knob lock for a rated opening. What are the options next to the Delaney Orlyn?
The Falcon W101 is a Grade 2 medium duty cylindrical knob lock with a fire rating, in passage/closet latch function with a 2-3/4 inch backset. The Falcon X101 is Grade 1 heavy duty, also fire rated, in passage function with an interchangeable core and a 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch door thickness range. The Delaney Orlyn is a Grade 2 UL rated entrance knobset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
14) What comes in the box with the Delaney Orlyn knobset, and do I need anything else to install it?
Everything for a standard install is in the carton: both knobs with their plates, the latch mechanism, the locking spindle, two keys, the full-lip strike plate and mounting screws. The screws are combination screws that thread into either a wood or a metal door, so you aren't buying separate fasteners for a hollow metal frame job. What you may still need is a strike or wood filler if the old cutout doesn't match the round corner strike.
15) How far does the Delaney Orlyn knob stick out from the door face?
The Orlyn projects 2-3/8 inches off the door face, with an overall length of 2.5625 inches. That projection matters in a tight hallway or where the door swings back against a wall or a cabinet run, and it matters if you're pairing the knob with a storm door or a wall-mounted stop. Compare it against your existing knob before you commit on a narrow opening.
16) I need matching passage and privacy knobs to go with a keyed entry knob. What pairs with a Grade 2 residential entrance knobset?
An entrance knob like the Orlyn handles the exterior door, but bedrooms and baths need privacy and hallways and closets need passage. In the same Grade 2 class we carry the Dexter C2000 Series in privacy and passage ball knob versions, both rated 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, and Bravura passage knobsets like the Albany and Lynchburg in Grade 2. Those won't visually match the Orlyn's knob design, so if a uniform look across a unit matters more than exact grade, buy the whole set from one series.
17) How is the Delaney Orlyn different from a Grade 3 keyed entry knob like the Kwikset 400P?
Grade is the difference. The Orlyn is Grade 2; the Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is Grade 3, and Cal-Royal's BER00 entrance knob and Pamex's FTF Baron entrance knob are Grade 3 as well. All of them cover 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so any of them will physically fit the same opening. Grade 2 is the tier a landlord or contractor typically specifies for a unit entry door taking daily use, where Grade 3 is the light-duty residential tier.
18) Can I key several Delaney Orlyn knobsets alike across a building?
Yes, keyed alike is an ordering option, so a set of units or a whole floor can run on one key. Pick the keyway to match what the building is already on, SC1 or KW1 5-pin, and order everything in a single run. Splitting the order across separate purchases risks landing on a different key bitting, which defeats the point.
19) I need a keyed knob on a classroom door. Is the Delaney Orlyn entrance knobset correct?
Classroom function differs from entrance: the Orlyn entrance knobset locks from an inside button, while classroom function is locked and unlocked only by key from the outside with no inside button. The Dexter C2000 Series classroom cylindrical ball knob lock is Grade 2, keyed, and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door range as the Orlyn.
20) What is a lower grade keyed entry knob if I do not need a Grade 2 lock?
The Callan Canova and Callan Santo are Grade 3 entrance knobsets, and the Cal-Royal BER00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office knob lock with a Kwikset keyway fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Kwikset 400P-CP Polo keyed entry knob is also Grade 3 with the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range. All keep keyed entry function; the Delaney Orlyn carries a Grade 2 rating instead.
21) What knobset do I order for a hall or closet door that never needs to lock?
Passage function is the substitute there, since the Delaney Orlyn is a keyed entrance knobset. The Dexter C2000 Series passage ball knob lock is Grade 2 non-keyed for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same door range the Orlyn covers. The Corbin Russwin CK4410 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage/closet cylindrical lock over that same thickness range, and the Arrow MK01 is a Grade 2 non-keyed passage knob lock, also 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch.
22) Can I use a keyless combination knob instead of a keyed entrance knobset?
The Lockey 3830 is a mechanical keyless combination knob lock with auto-locking passage function, fitting 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors. It is entered by code rather than a key, so there is no cylinder to key alike with the rest of a building. The Delaney Orlyn entrance knobset uses an SC1 5-pin standard cylinder and ships with two keys, and can be ordered keyed alike across an order.
23) Is a Kwikset Polo knob the same thing as a Delaney Orlyn knobset?
They are different orders. The Kwikset 400P Polo is entrance function with a 6AL latch and RCS strike, while the Kwikset 200P Polo is a passage knob for interior hall and closet doors with a 6AL latch and round corner strike. Only the 400P is keyed. The Delaney Orlyn is a Grade 2 entrance knobset with a full-lip round corner strike (9103) measuring 1-3/4 inch by 2-1/4 inch and a 6-way adjustable latch, so check function and strike prep before treating one as the other.
24) Are decorative knobs like Baldwin Estate or Emtek an alternative to a Grade 2 entrance knobset?
They serve different openings. The Baldwin Estate 5000 Baltimore knob with 5048 rose is a passage lock with a 2-3/8 inch backset and full lip strike, and the Baldwin Estate 5077 Bethpage is privacy function. The Emtek Porcelain knobs ship as two knobs with a threaded rod, and the Emtek Classic Brass Crystal Georgetown and Providence are dummy pairs. None of those is keyed entry; the Delaney Orlyn is a Grade 2 entrance knobset with an SC1 5-pin cylinder and comes in US15 Satin Nickel and US12P Tuscany Bronze.
25) Is exit device knob trim a substitute for a cylindrical entrance knobset?
No. The Sargent 28C-KNOB is exit device trim with knob and rose in entrance function for 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Imperial USA ED-BKL580 is knob trim in storeroom function; both mount to an exit device rather than into a standard bored door prep. The Delaney Orlyn is a cylindrical knobset installed into a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore.
26) I need to do the entry and the interior doors of a unit in one order. What pairs with the Delaney Orlyn?
The Orlyn covers the keyed entry opening as a Grade 2 entrance knobset. For the interior doors of the same unit, the Dexter C2000 Series offers Grade 2 privacy and Grade 2 passage ball knob locks over a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door range, matching the Orlyn's door range, and the Bravura Albany and Bravura Lynchburg are Grade 2 passage knobsets with round trim. The Schlage Residential F500 Plymouth with Georgian knob is a combo pack with adjustable backsets and dual strikes for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.
27) Which finishes does the Delaney Orlyn entrance knob come in?
Two: US15 Satin Nickel and US12P Tuscany Bronze. Satin nickel is the safer match if the rest of the building runs brushed or satin chrome trim; the Tuscany bronze is a darker, warmer oil-rubbed style tone. If you're standardizing a building, order the whole run in one keyway and one finish so future replacements stay consistent.
28) Are the mounting screws on the Delaney Orlyn knobset visible from the outside of the door?
No. The Orlyn uses concealed screws, so the exterior side shows a clean rose with no exposed fasteners. It also carries a full protection collar around the outside cylinder, which is the piece that resists a wrench attack on the knob itself. On an exterior door that combination is worth more than the finish choice.
