Deltana 6461 Savanna Lever Entry

No. The latch on the Savanna 6461 is adjustable for either a 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, so one part covers both of the common bore layouts without ordering a separate latch.

The 6461 uses a Kwikset-compatible keyway, so it can be keyed into an existing Kwikset-keyed system. It is a single cylinder entry lever, keyed outside with a thumbturn or button inside. Keying is specified at order time as keyed different or keyed alike, and a key code can be supplied if you need it cut to an existing code.

Yes, handing is an order choice on this one. The 6461 Savanna comes as a dedicated Right Hand or Left Hand lever, so stand outside the door, note which side the hinges are on, and pick to match. Unlike many commercial cylindrical levers, it isn't a field-reversible non-handed lever.

No. The Savanna 6461 is a residential-duty tubular leverset, intended for house and apartment interior and entry doors. For an office, school, or other commercial opening you want a cylindrical lock built to a commercial grade, for example the Hager 2525 Grade 2 entry lever or the Dexter C1000 Series Grade 1 classroom lever.

Choose a passage lever instead. The 6461 Savanna is a keyed entry function, so it is the wrong part for a non-locking opening. Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 passage leverset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Kwikset 200DL Delta passage lever is reversible with an adjustable 6AL latch and RCS strike. Bravura's Atlanta, Orlando and Tampa round- and square-trim leversets are Grade 2 passage options if you want a heavier set.

The Master Lock BC Series RL01 is a Grade 3 keyed entry lockset with a return-style lever and Entrance function, close in intent to the 6461 Savanna, which is a keyed single-cylinder entry leverset for residential use. Cal-Royal's AUS00 is another Grade 3 entrance/office lever, with a solid brass forged body and a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, where the 6461 covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.

The Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 commercial cylindrical entry lock with a lever handle covering 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, the same thickness range the 6461 Savanna handles. Falcon's B511CP6D is a Grade 2 medium-duty cylindrical lever with entry/office function, and Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever built on a 6-pin Schlage C keyway with a 2-3/8 inch backset. The 6461 is a residential tubular set on a Kwikset-compatible keyway with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset.

No - the 6461 Savanna is a keyed entry lever with a single cylinder, which locks from a key outside. A bed or bath door wants a privacy function with a thumbturn. Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is a Grade 3 privacy leverset for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, Hager 2540 is a Grade 2 privacy cylindrical lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and Baldwin Estate 5103 with the 5048 rose is available in privacy.

Yes. The Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever lock is ADA compliant and fits 1 3/16 inch to 2 inch doors, with a double-combination version as the 2835DC. The Lockey 1150 heavy duty mechanical keypad lever set has an adjustable backset and fits 1-1/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Delaney LP250 is a Grade 2 electronic keypad leverlock, and Emtek offers a Classic keypad leverset. The 6461 Savanna is keyed on a Kwikset-compatible keyway instead.

The 6461 Savanna is Kwikset keyway compatible, so it will not accept a Schlage C key. Cal-Royal AG00 is a Grade 2 entrance lever supplied with a 6-pin Schlage C keyway keyed different and a 2-3/8 inch backset; the AG03 classroom and AG05 storeroom levers in the same AG family carry Schlage C as well, with AG05 fitting 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors.

The 6461 Savanna is an entry function and does not provide classroom or storeroom keying behavior. Dexter C1000 offers a Grade 1 classroom lever with clutching and a Grade 1 classroom security version, both for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For storeroom, Cal-Royal AG05 is a Grade 2 lever with a deadlocking latchbolt and Hager 2580 is a Grade 2 storeroom lock with the Withnell lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors.

For a fire-rated opening, specify a lock that carries the rating. Corbin Russwin CL3110 is a Grade 1 vandal-resistant cylindrical lever with a fire rating for 1-3/4 inch to 2 inch doors, Falcon K101 is a Grade 1 fire-rated cylindrical lock, and Kwikset's 200DL-RCALFD Delta passage lever uses a round corner adjustable 20 minute UL latch. The 6461 Savanna is a residential entry leverset.

Seven finishes, each offered in both hands: PVD Polished Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome, and Antique Brass. PVD polished brass is the one to pick where you want brass that will not tarnish on a high-touch unit door.

Entry means keyed: the outside lever locks and takes a key, which is what you want on a unit entry, a side door, or an exterior door. A passage lever never locks at all (hall and closet doors), and a privacy lever locks with a turn but takes no key (bed and bath). If you need those instead, the Kwikset 200BRNL Breton is a passage lever and the Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is the privacy version.

Yes. Keying is selected on the order: keyed alike puts every lever in the group on the same key, keyed different gives each its own. There is also a field for keying to an existing code if you are adding to a building that already runs a Kwikset-compatible key.

In most cases yes. It is a tubular bored lockset with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset and a 1-3/8 to 2 inch door thickness range, so it fits a standard bored door prep at either common backset. What it will not do is fill a mortise pocket or a non-standard oversize bore.

The Callan Bennett is a Grade 3 entrance leverset supplied as a deadbolt combo, which gives you both the latch and the deadbolt from one part number. Callan also offers the Artino as a Grade 3 entrance leverset on its own. The 6461 Savanna is a single-cylinder keyed entry lever, so a deadbolt would be ordered separately.

Dummy levers are the common mix-up - they mount as trim only and have no latch. The Baldwin Estate 5103 half dummy in left and right hand, the Emtek Arts & Crafts and Hammered dummy pairs, the Emtek Cortina dummy pair, BEST 9K 1DT and 7KC 1DT dummy trim, and the Callan Bentley Grade 2 dummy all fall in that group. The 6461 Savanna is a keyed entry tubular lockset, so none of these replace it on an exterior or lockable door.

The 6461 Savanna is ordered as Left Hand or Right Hand. If you want to stock one part for either swing, Falcon's B101 Grade 2 and K101 Grade 1 cylindrical locks use non-handed lever designs, and the Kwikset 200DL Delta lever is reversible. Note those three are passage function, not the keyed entry function the 6461 provides.

Yes. The 6461 Savanna covers 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors. Among comparable levers, Hager 2510 passage and 2525 entry and Dexter C1000 asylum also list 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch, and Falcon K101 goes to 2-1/4 inch. By contrast, Kwikset Breton passage and privacy sets stop at 1-3/4 inch, and Design Hardware J75 and X75 are listed for 1-3/4 inch doors.

Steel and zinc construction under the plated finish. That is typical residential leverset material, fine for house and apartment traffic, but it is not the forged brass or heavy cast body you would put on a high-cycle commercial door.

The Baldwin Estate 5103 lever with the 5048 rose is the closest decorative family, offered in passage, privacy and left- or right-hand half dummy. Emtek's Arts & Crafts, Hammered and Cortina leversets are also decorative lines, offered as dummy pairs. The 6461 Savanna itself is a steel and zinc residential set in finishes including PVD Polished Brass, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Brushed Nickel, Antique Nickel, Polished Chrome, Brushed Chrome and Antique Brass.
