Delaney Hardware 322522 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Delaney RH Series MD privacy leverset fit a 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset door?
Both. The RH Series MD privacy lever ships with an adjustable latch that sets to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, so you do not have to know the backset before you order. Those are the two standard bored-lock backsets found in residential and commercial doors, so one part covers the building.
2) What door thickness does the Delaney RH privacy lever work on?
It covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch doors. That range takes in the standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door and the thinner 1-3/8 inch interior doors common in older buildings, plus thicker slabs up to 2 inches without needing a separate kit.
3) What door prep do I need to bore for a Delaney RH Series tubular leverset?
Standard cylindrical prep: 2-1/8 inch cross bore through the face, 1 inch edge bore, and a 1 inch by 2-1/4 inch latch face mortise with round corners. The strike is a 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch T-strike. If your doors are already prepped for a common bored lockset, this drops into the same holes.
4) Is the Delaney RH Series privacy leverset rated for commercial use?
It is a commercial-duty lock, meeting BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000 Grade 2 at 400,000 cycles. Grade 2 is the usual specification for multi-family units, hospitality guest rooms, and light commercial offices; high-traffic institutional openings are typically specified Grade 1.
5) Can this privacy lever go on a fire rated bedroom or bath door?
The latch used on the privacy function is a 1/2 inch throw bolt that meets a 3-hour fire rating, which is what matters for the latching hardware on a rated opening. The privacy function itself has no key cylinder, only push-button locking with an emergency pin hole release on the outside.
6) What privacy leverset should I use if I need a visual occupancy indicator on a restroom door?
The Delaney RH Series MD Style privacy leverset uses push button locking with an exterior emergency pin hole, so there is no visual status on the outside face. For single-occupancy restrooms or changing rooms where staff and users need to see at a glance whether the room is in use, the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is the one to specify: it is a privacy leverset with a red/green occupancy indicator, offered in the same 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets. Both are privacy function, so the door prep intent is the same; the difference is indicator versus plain button.
7) Will a Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 fit the same doors as the Delaney RH Series privacy leverset?
Not across the full range. The Delaney RH Series MD Style privacy leverset covers door thicknesses from 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inch, while the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 adjusts from 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch. On standard 1-3/8 inch and 1-3/4 inch interior doors either will mount, but if you are working thicker slabs above 1-3/4 inch - some solid core and hospitality doors run heavier - the Delaney is the one that covers them. Both use 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets.
8) I need a Grade 2 privacy lever for a commercial corridor of bedroom doors - is the indicator lever an equivalent spec?
They are specified differently. The Delaney RH Series MD Style privacy leverset is stated as Grade 2, meeting BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000 at 400,000 cycles, which is what most multi-family and hospitality bedroom door specs call out. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is described as standard duty commercial grade rather than to a stated ANSI grade. If the drawing calls for an ANSI A156.2 Grade 2 privacy lockset, the Delaney is the one that answers the callout; choose the Cal-Royal when the indicator function is the governing requirement.
9) Do I need to specify handing when ordering the Delaney RH privacy lever?
No handing to specify. The RH Series MD lever is non-handed, so one part works on left or right hand doors and you can stock a single SKU across a building.
10) How does someone get into a locked bathroom in an emergency with this lock?
There is a small pin hole on the outside rose. A straight emergency key or pick pushed into that hole releases the interior push button. The lever is also panic proof, meaning turning the inside lever retracts the latch and unlocks in one motion, so an occupant never has to fumble with the button on the way out.
11) What is the difference between this Delaney privacy lever and the Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 indicator lever?
Both are privacy levers with adjustable 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 adds a red/green occupancy indicator on the outside, which is what facilities want on single-occupancy restrooms so users can see the room is in use. It is listed as standard duty commercial and adjusts for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Delaney RH MD is a plain privacy lever, no indicator, carries a stated Grade 2 rating, and covers a wider 1-3/8 to 2 inch door range.
12) Will the 1/2 inch latch throw work with the strikes already in my frames?
The latch throws 1/2 inch, which is standard for a bored lockset, and the supplied strike is the common 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch T-strike with a 1 by 2-1/4 inch round corner faceplate on the latch. If your existing frames carry that same T-strike prep, the lock latches without touching the jamb.
13) Can I key this Delaney RH lever to my building master key system?
No. This is a privacy function lock for bedroom and bath doors, with push-button locking and no cylinder to key. For a keyed opening on the same RH Series you need the entry function, which uses the 9060 UL adjustable latch rather than the 9064 privacy latch.
14) Can I mix the Delaney RH Series privacy lever and the Cal-Royal indicator lever in the same building?
Functionally yes, and it is a common approach: Delaney RH Series MD Style privacy leversets on bedroom and bath doors, Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 indicator leversets on shared or public single-occupancy restrooms. Both are privacy function cylindrical leversets on 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets, so your door prep standard stays the same. What will not match is the appearance - the Delaney MD Style is a Regency lever in US26D dull chrome with concealed mounting screws, and the Cal-Royal carries a red/green indicator on the outside face, so the two will read as different hardware on the wall.
15) Will the Dull Chrome finish match the other hardware in my building?
The finish is US26D Dull Chrome, the satin chrome standard used on most commercial door hardware, so it sits alongside satin chrome closers, hinges, and exit devices. It will not match satin nickel (US15) or brushed stainless (US32D) exactly, though 26D and 32D are often paired in the field.
16) Is the mounting hardware on this lever visible from the room side?
No exposed screws. The RH Series MD uses concealed mounting screws with interlocking screw posts and a protective sleeve on the spindle, so the interior rose reads clean and the assembly stays tight through repeated use.
