Deltana CL210LA Double Deadbolt Grade 2 with 2-3/4" Backset

Either one. The CL210LA covers doors from 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick, so it handles both the standard commercial 1-3/4 inch leaf and the thinner 1-3/8 inch doors common on older interior openings. No spacer kit or special order to move between them.

Not as supplied. The CL210LA ships with a 2-3/4 inch backset latch, which is the measurement from the door edge to the center of the bore. The 2-3/8 inch backset version is a separate order, so match the backset to the hole already in your door before you buy. The two backsets in general use are 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches.

Key both sides. The CL210LA is a double cylinder deadbolt, meaning it needs a key to throw or retract the bolt from inside as well as outside. That is what people specify for a door with glass beside it or in it, where an inside thumbturn could be reached through a broken pane. It also means anyone inside needs a key to get out, so check your local egress rules for the occupancy before you install one.

The CL210LA uses the Schlage C keyway, so it drops into a Schlage C keyed system and can be keyed alike or mastered with the rest of your C-keyway hardware. For a locksmith standardizing a building on one keyway, that is the deciding spec.

It is rated for commercial use at Grade 2, which is the middle ANSI/BHMA duty tier, appropriate for light commercial and multi-family entries rather than high-abuse public openings. For a heavier traffic exterior door where you want the top tier, look at a Grade 1 double cylinder unit such as the Design Hardware D1 Series, which is rated Grade 1 and extra heavy duty for 1-3/4 inch doors, or the Dexter DB1000 Series double cylinder, Grade 1 for 1-3/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors.

The CL210LA is key on both sides, so it is the wrong part if you want a thumbturn. Same Grade 2 class with a cylinder outside and thumbturn inside: the Hager 3115 in the Schlage C keyway for 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inch doors, the Arrow DBX61, or the Cal-Royal CB160 with its tamper-resistant cylinder guard. The Hager matches this keyway, so it keys into the same system.

The Dexter DB2000 double cylinder deadbolt is the nearest match. Like the Deltana CL210LA, it is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt, and it covers a 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch door thickness range, the same range the CL210LA fits. The Hager 3214 is a second Grade 2 double cylinder option and also covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, with a Schlage C keyway matching the Schlage C type keyway the CL210LA uses. The Delaney LU Series 320601 is another Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt, supplied in Stainless Steel US32D.

Go to a cylinder by thumbturn deadbolt, which keys outside and turns by hand inside. The Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a 1 inch throw, cylinder by thumbturn, fire rated, and fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. The Hager 3115 is also cylinder by thumbturn, fire rated, and covers the same 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch range with a Schlage C keyway, the same keyway family the Deltana CL210LA uses. The Deltana CL210LA is a double cylinder deadbolt, which takes a key on both sides.

The Deltana CL210LA ships with a 2-3/4 inch backset, with the 2-3/8 inch sold separately. If you would rather buy a bolt that adjusts on the door, the Cal-Royal ED500 is a Grade 3 single cylinder deadbolt with an adjustable backset covering 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the Brinks Raleigh E2401 is a single cylinder deadbolt with a 4-way adjustable backset. Both are cylinder by thumbturn rather than keyed both sides like the CL210LA.

The Deltana CL210LA uses a Schlage C type keyway. Among commercial deadbolts, the Hager 3214 is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway, the Hager 3215 is a Grade 2 single cylinder with a 1 inch throw and Schlage C keyway, and the Hager 3118 is a Grade 1 classroom deadbolt with a Schlage C keyway and 6-pin cylinder. The Dormakaba D900 small case mortise deadbolt is supplied keyed different with SC keyways.

No handing to specify. The CL210LA is universal, so the same part works on a left hand or right hand door, inswing or outswing. One SKU covers every opening in the building, which is what makes it easy to stock for a property manager keeping spares on the shelf.

The CL210LA comes with a 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch strike, no-lip. That is the common deadbolt strike footprint, so if the frame is already prepped for a standard tubular deadbolt of that size, the plate covers the existing mortise. If your old strike was a larger box or a lipped strike, expect to patch or re-prep the jamb.

Tubular, bored through the face of the door with a cross-bore and an edge bore for the latch. That is a drill-in installation, not a pocket cut into the door edge. If your doors are already mortised, a tubular deadbolt will not fill that prep and you want a mortise deadbolt instead, such as the Dormakaba D900 small case mortise deadbolt or the Emtek 2050 European mortise deadbolt.

A double cylinder deadbolt is the wrong tool for that. It needs a key on both faces, so it cannot be thrown quickly by hand from inside and it locks occupants in. For a keyed classroom deadbolt function, the Falcon D211 is Grade 2 classroom with single cylinder operation, and the Falcon D111 is the Grade 1 heavy duty version with adjustable backset.

They share the double cylinder function but not the grade. The Callan Model 210S is a Grade 3 double cylinder deadbolt, while the Deltana CL210LA is Grade 2. If the specification calls for Grade 2 keyed both sides, the Delaney LU Series 320601 or the Dexter DB2000 double cylinder are the Grade 2 double cylinder peers.

No. The Baldwin Reserve 8BR0618001 is a deadbolt spacer, a component that goes with a lock rather than a complete keyed deadbolt. The Deltana CL210LA is a Grade 2 tubular double cylinder deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset and a 1-1/8 inch by 2-3/4 inch strike. The same caution applies to the BEST 8T, which is a tubular deadbolt tube component from the T Series, not a finished lock. For a complete keyed-both-sides deadbolt, look at the Baldwin Reserve Double Cylinder Contemporary Round deadbolt or the Emtek 8323 Modern Disc double cylinder deadbolt.

The Arrow E60 is a Grade 2 exit deadlock, non-keyed, with a blank plate on one side and a thumbturn on the other, and it fits 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range the Deltana CL210LA fits. The Callan 205S is a Grade 3 one-sided half-bore deadbolt, which bores only one face of the door. The Deltana CL210LA is keyed on both sides.

Check the door thickness and the function before you do. The Corbin Russwin DL3011 is a Grade 1 cylindrical deadlock in cylinder by blank function, meaning one side is a blank plate rather than a second keyed cylinder, and it is specified for 1-3/4 inch to 2-1/4 inch doors. The Deltana CL210LA is a Grade 2 double cylinder deadbolt for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors. For a Grade 1 keyed-both-sides bolt at 1-3/4 inch, the Design Hardware D1 Series double cylinder deadbolt is the closer match.

The Delaney KP400 is a Grade 2 electronic deadbolt with a programmable remote, matching the Grade 2 rating of the Deltana CL210LA. The Codelocks CL2200 is a medium duty electronic surface deadbolt in brushed steel, and the Codelocks CL2210 is an electronic mortise deadbolt. The Codelocks CL200 is a surface deadbolt with key override in a light duty rating. Surface and mortise bolts prep the door differently than the CL210LA, which is a tubular deadbolt with a 2-3/4 inch backset.

The Dexter DB2000 single cylinder deadbolt is Grade 2, cylinder by thumbturn, and covers 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, the same thickness range as the Deltana CL210LA. The Arrow DBX61 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt in cylinder by thumbturn, and the Cal-Royal CB160 is a Grade 2 single cylinder deadbolt with a tamper-resistant cylinder guard. The Bravura 310B Elite is a Grade 2 cylinder by thumbturn deadbolt with traditional round trim.

Three: oil rubbed bronze, polished brass, and brushed stainless. Brushed stainless is the usual pick when matching commercial lever and closer hardware; the bronze and brass read residential or hospitality. For a fleet of doors, pick one and keep the spare stock in that finish, since handing is universal and one part number covers every opening.
