Deltana 6462 Savanna Lever Privacy

It covers 1-3/8 inch through 2 inch doors. That takes in the standard 1-3/8 inch interior door found in most homes and the heavier 1-3/4 inch slab, so it works on both without a spacer kit.

Yes, handing has to be called out. The 6462 is built as a handed leverset and comes in Left Hand and Right Hand versions. Stand on the outside of the door: if the hinges are on your right, it's right hand. Order the wrong one and the lever points uphill.

It's a residential-duty lockset, tubular construction in steel and zinc, and Deltana lists it as residential. For a leased corridor or anything taking commercial traffic, step up to a cylindrical Grade 1 or Grade 2 lever such as the Falcon K101 passage or the Corbin Russwin CL3110, both Grade 1 and both carrying a fire rating. Keep the 6462 for interior bedroom and bath doors inside the unit.

For a like-for-like decorative residential privacy lever, the Baldwin Estate 5103 Privacy Lever with 5048 Rose is the nearest peer - same privacy/bed/bath function on a round rose lever. The Deltana 6462 Savanna is a tubular non-keyed privacy lever with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset fitting doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches thick. The Kwikset 300BRNL RDT Breton is another privacy lever option, rated Grade 3 and fitting 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, so the 6462 covers thicker doors up to 2 inches.

The Deltana 6462 Savanna is classified as residential, so for a commercial restroom look at a graded commercial privacy lock instead. The Arrow MK02-TA is a Grade 1 privacy lock with a fire rating, though it uses a Tudor knob rather than a lever and fits 1-3/4 to 2 inch doors. The Hager 2540 with Withnell lever is a Grade 2 cylindrical privacy lock for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches. Where lever operation and an ANSI grade are both required by the spec, the Hager 2540 is the closer match.

The Deltana 6462 Savanna is non-keyed, so it cannot be keyed to a cylinder. For a keyed opening, step to an entrance or storeroom function lever: the Hager 2525 is a Grade 2 cylindrical entry lock with lever handle for 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, the Cal-Royal AG00 entrance lever uses a 6-pin Schlage C keyway with a 2-3/8 inch backset, and the Falcon B511CP6D is a Grade 2 entry/office lever. If the door must always relock behind the user, the Cal-Royal AG05 Grade 2 storeroom lever with deadlocking latchbolt is the function to specify.

The 6462 is privacy only, so for a hall or closet door you need a separate passage set. If matching the exact Savanna lever design matters, stay within Deltana's Savanna leverset range. If you're willing to change trim, comparable residential-scale privacy and passage families we carry include the Kwikset Breton (200BRNL passage and 300BRNL privacy) and the Baldwin Estate 5103, which is offered in passage, privacy, and half dummy so you can run one lever shape across every door type.

Both are non-keyed privacy levers for bedroom and bath doors. The Kwikset 300BRNL Breton is a Grade 3 set rated for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Deltana 6462 Savanna takes a wider slab range, 1-3/8 inch up to 2 inches, and is built in steel and zinc with six decorative finishes including PVD Polished Brass and Antique Nickel, so it leans toward matching a designed interior rather than builder-grade turnover work.

In most cases yes. The 6462 is a tubular bored lockset using the standard cross-bore prep with an adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 inch backset, which is the same prep a residential knob privacy set uses. What you should check is the rose coverage against any wear ring or paint outline the old knob rose left, and that the door falls inside 1-3/8 to 2 inches thick.

You can, within reason. It's a residential-duty privacy lever, so it fits unit interiors, and the adjustable 2-3/8 or 2-3/4 backset plus the 1-3/8 to 2 inch thickness range means one part number covers the mixed door prep you typically find across older units. Order by handing though, so count left hand and right hand openings before you place the order. Unit entry doors and common corridors need a keyed commercial set instead.

No - a dummy is not a substitute. The Deltana 6462 Savanna is a working tubular privacy latch with a bed/bath push-button lock, so it latches the door and locks from inside. Dummy trim such as the Baldwin Estate 5103 Half Dummy, the Emtek Arts and Crafts dummy pair, or the BEST 7KC single dummy trim is surface-mounted trim with no latch at all and is used on inactive or closet-pair doors. Order a dummy only for a leaf that does not need to latch.

The Deltana 6462 Savanna is a privacy/bed/bath function, which is what you want on bedroom and bathroom doors. For halls and closets you need a passage function that never locks. Comparable passage levers include the Baldwin Estate 5103 Passage with 5048 Rose, the Kwikset 200BRNL RDT Breton passage lever in Grade 3, and the Bravura Atlanta round trim passage leverset in Grade 2. Trim style will not match the Savanna across brands, so if visual consistency matters through the unit, keep the passage doors within the same decorative line.

The Deltana 6462 Savanna covers 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors. Among comparable levers with the same reach, the Hager 2510 passage and Hager 2580 storeroom with Withnell lever both list 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Dexter C1000 asylum function lists 1-3/8 to 2 inches. The Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage goes further at 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. Levers limited to 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches, such as the Cal-Royal AG05 storeroom, will not reach a 2 inch door.

The Deltana 6462 Savanna is supplied as right hand or left hand, so the swing has to be confirmed before ordering. If you would rather stock one part for both swings, the Falcon B101 Grade 2 passage and the Falcon K101 Grade 1 passage are both built with non-handed levers. Those are passage function, not privacy, so they suit halls and closets rather than bedrooms and baths.

The Deltana 6462 Savanna is a mechanical non-keyed privacy lever for interior bed and bath doors - it has no code entry. Keypad leversets such as the Delaney LP250 electronic keypad leverlock in Grade 2, the Emtek Classic keypad leverset, or the Lockey 2835 mechanical pushbutton keyless lever for 1 3/16 to 2 inch doors are entry-type products for doors where access needs to be controlled without keys. Use the 6462 on interior privacy doors and a keypad unit on the doors that need controlled entry.
