Delaney Hardware 326522 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Delaney RH Series storeroom leverset fit a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset door?
Both. The RH Series MD lever ships with an adjustable latch that sets to either 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inches, which are the two standard bored-lock backsets, so you don't have to measure before you order. Door prep is a 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore and a 1 x 2-1/4 inch latch face, which is standard 161 prep.
2) What door thickness does the Delaney RH Series MD leverset work on?
1-3/8 up to 2 inches. That covers standard 1-3/4 inch commercial doors, older 1-3/8 inch interior doors, and thicker 2 inch slabs that a lot of bored locks will not span.
3) Do I need to specify handing for a Delaney RH Series storeroom lever?
No handing to specify. The MD style lever is non-handed, so one part number covers left and right hand openings. That is what makes it workable for a property manager standardizing across a building without tracking swing on every door.
4) What does the storeroom function actually do on a Delaney RH lever?
The outside lever stays locked at all times. A key in the outside lever retracts the deadlocking latch, and the inside lever always turns free for egress. There is no way to leave the outside lever unlocked, which is the point on a storage room, mechanical room, or IT closet where you never want the door left open by accident.
5) Will the Delaney RH lever latch into the strike I already have in the frame?
The latch has a 1/2 inch throw and comes with a 1-1/8 x 2-3/4 inch T-strike (9101). If your frame has an ANSI strike or a deeper pocket than the 1/2 inch bolt reaches, plan on using the supplied T-strike and its prep rather than reusing the old one. The 1 x 2-1/4 inch round corner faceplate on the latch matches standard mortised latch prep in the door edge.
6) Can I key a Delaney RH Series storeroom leverset into my existing Schlage or Kwikset keys?
Keyway is a required choice at order. SC4 6-pin is the standard build, with KW1 5-pin and SC1 5-pin as the alternates, so you can match either a Schlage-keyed or Kwikset-keyed building. You also pick keyed different or keyed alike when you order. If you are adding doors to an existing system, choose the keyway that matches what is already cut and specify keyed alike.
7) Is the Delaney RH Series lever rated for a fire door?
The latch is stated to meet a 3-hour fire rating, and the entrance latch is the UL listed 9060. Storeroom function is a normal choice on a fire-rated opening because the outside lever is always locked and the inside lever always releases.
8) Is Grade 2 enough for a commercial storeroom door, or do I need Grade 1?
This lever meets BHMA/ANSI A156.2 Series 4000, Grade 2, tested to 400,000 cycles, and it is built as a commercial lock. That is the right band for a storage room, back office, closet, or an apartment common-area door with moderate daily traffic. A door cycled constantly all day, like a main entrance or a school corridor, is where you step up to Grade 1.
9) Can I use this Delaney storeroom lever on a restroom or office door that needs a privacy lock?
No. Storeroom function is keyed and the outside lever is permanently locked, so there is no thumbturn for someone inside to secure the door. For a restroom or a single-occupancy office you want a privacy set. The Cal-Royal INDLEV-20 is a privacy leverset with a red/green occupancy indicator, adjustable for 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inch backsets and 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
10) Can the Delaney RH Series lever drop into an existing bored lock hole without redrilling the door?
If the door already has the standard bored prep, yes. It needs a 2-1/8 inch cross bore, a 1 inch edge bore, and a 1 x 2-1/4 inch latch face with round corners, which is what nearly every commercial cylindrical lock is prepped for. Set the latch to whichever backset the existing hole uses, 2-3/8 or 2-3/4, and the only thing likely to need work is the strike pocket if the old lock used a different strike than the 1-1/8 x 2-3/4 T-strike supplied.
11) What finish is the Delaney RH Series MD leverset, and will it match my other satin chrome hardware?
US26D dull chrome, the satin chrome finish that is standard across most commercial openings. It matches 626 satin chrome closers, hinges, and exit hardware in a building that has been standardized on that finish.
12) Is a tubular leverset like the Delaney RH strong enough to resist someone forcing the lever?
It is a bored (cylindrical) lock, not a mortise lock, and it is described as panic proof with a protective sleeve, concealed mounting screws, and interlocking screw posts. Those features stop the trim being pulled off from the outside and keep the inside lever releasing under load. For a high-security exterior door you would generally move to a mortise lock; for interior storage, mechanical, and back-of-house doors this is the usual choice.
