Deltana 5852-15 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to know the backset before ordering the Claremont 5852 lever?
No. The latch on the 5852 Claremont has an adjustable backset covering 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch, which are the two bore-to-edge dimensions used on residential doors. One part works whichever of the two your door was drilled for.
2) Is the Deltana 5852 Claremont lever handed, and how do I pick left or right?
Yes, it is handed. The 5852 Claremont privacy lever is ordered as Left Hand or Right Hand. Stand outside the room the door opens into: if the hinges are on your left it is left hand, hinges on the right is right hand. Both handings come in all three finishes, so the finish choice does not limit you.
3) Does the Claremont 5852 lever take a key?
No key, and no cylinder. The 5852 Claremont is a non-keyed privacy (bed/bath) lockset: it locks from the inside with a thumbturn or pushbutton and is intended for bedrooms and bathrooms. If you need a keyed opening, this is the wrong function.
4) Is the Deltana Claremont 5852 lever suitable for a commercial corridor or an apartment entry door?
No. It is a Grade 3 residential lockset, built for interior bedroom and bath doors. For a commercial opening or high-traffic multi-family corridor you want a Grade 1 or Grade 2 cylindrical lock instead. In privacy function, the Hager 2540 with the Withnell lever is a Grade 2 alternative, and the Arrow MK02-TA is a privacy cylindrical lock with a fire rating, though that one is a knob rather than a lever.
5) What is the closest residential privacy lever to the Deltana 5852 Claremont if the Claremont style is not wanted?
The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is the nearest straight equivalent: a Grade 3 privacy lever set for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch thick. The Deltana 5852 Claremont is also a non-keyed privacy/bed/bath lever, tubular, for residential use, and it fits doors 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch with an adjustable backset of 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch. If the door is thicker than 1-3/4 inch, the Claremont covers it and the Breton does not.
6) Can the Deltana 5852 Claremont be used on an entry door?
No. The Deltana 5852 Claremont is non-keyed, privacy/bed/bath function, so it has no key cylinder. For a keyed entry lever, the Cal-Royal AUS00 is a Grade 3 entrance/office lever with a solid brass forged body for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, the Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry lever, and the Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied with a deadbolt combo.
7) Can I use the Claremont 5852 on a hall or closet door instead of a bathroom?
You could, but you would be paying for a lock you do not want there. The 5852 is privacy function, so it latches and locks from inside the room. For a closet or hall door use a passage set, which latches but never locks. Among residential-grade options the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton passage lever is a Grade 3 passage set that fits 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors.
8) Is the Deltana 5852 a tubular or a mortise lock?
Tubular, cylindrical bored type. It drops into a standard 2-1/8 inch cross bore with a 1 inch edge bore, so it goes on a door already prepped for a typical residential knob or lever with no mortising.
9) Is the Baldwin Estate 5103 privacy lever a substitute for the Deltana 5852 Claremont?
Function matches: the Baldwin Estate 5103 with 5048 rose is a privacy lever, same as the Deltana 5852 Claremont privacy/bed/bath function. They differ in trim design and rose, so on a door where the other openings already carry Claremont trim the 5852 keeps the set consistent. Baldwin also offers the 5103 in left hand and right hand half dummy and in passage, so a whole suite of doors can be finished in one design.
10) Which alternative to the Deltana 5852 Claremont fits a 2 inch thick door?
The Deltana 5852 Claremont itself covers doors 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch. Among comparable levers with the same reach, the Hager 2510 Grade 2 passage and Hager 2525 Grade 2 entry both list 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage goes to 2-1/4 inch. Levers such as the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton stop at 1-3/4 inch.
11) Which lever matches the Deltana 5852 Claremont style on a hall or closet door that does not need to lock?
The Deltana 5852 Claremont is privacy/bed/bath only, so a closet or hall door wants a passage function instead. Comparable non-keyed passage levers include the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton, Grade 3 for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, and the Callan Asheville Grade 3 passage leverset in satin nickel. In a decorative line, the Baldwin Estate 5103 passage lever with 5048 rose is the passage version of that family.
12) What replaces the Deltana 5852 Claremont on a high traffic door that keeps failing?
The Deltana 5852 Claremont is a Grade 3 residential tubular lever. For heavier cycle duty, the Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 heavy duty cylindrical passage lock, fire rated, with non-handed levers for doors 1-3/8 inch to 2-1/4 inch, and the Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal resistant passage lever, fire rated, for doors 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch. Both are passage function, so they hold no privacy lock.
13) What do I order for the inactive leaf if the active door has a Deltana 5852 Claremont?
A dummy lever, since the Deltana 5852 Claremont is a working privacy latch and not a pull. Options include the Emtek Classic Brass Cortina dummy pair, the Emtek Arts and Crafts lever dummy pair, the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy lever, and the Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy, which is ordered handed as left hand or right hand.
14) Does handing matter on the Deltana 5852 Claremont compared with other privacy levers?
Yes. The Deltana 5852 Claremont is ordered handed, in left hand and right hand, in oil rubbed bronze, brushed nickel and polished chrome. Some comparable locks avoid that step entirely: the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage both use a non-handed lever design. If a property manager wants one part number to fit both swings, that is the difference to weigh.
15) Is a keypad leverset an alternative to the Deltana 5852 Claremont privacy lever?
Only if the door needs controlled access rather than bathroom privacy. The Deltana 5852 Claremont is non-keyed privacy/bed/bath. Keyless alternatives include the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock, Grade 2, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset, and the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock, which is passage function, ADA compliant, and fits doors 1-3/16 inch to 2 inch.
16) What is the difference between the Deltana 5852 Claremont and a storeroom or classroom lever?
Function. The Deltana 5852 Claremont locks from the inside for a bedroom or bath and takes no key. A storeroom lever such as the Cal-Royal AG05, Grade 2 with a deadlocking latchbolt for doors 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch, or the Hager 2580 Grade 2 storeroom with Withnell lever, stays locked outside and is released by key. A classroom lever such as the Cal-Royal AG03 uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway on a 2-3/4 inch backset.
