DORMA C800 Series Locks

The C800 Series Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical locksets provide exceptional security, enhanced aesthetics, and rugged dependability. These premium locks are built with a high performance cylindrical chassis for all applications where ANSI/BHMA A156 2 Series 4000 Grade 1 products are required. To meet the aesthetic needs of your project, these versatile locks are available in a range of levers or knob trim design.

Locks ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 certified

  • With a high performance cylindrical chassis
  • Smooth operation
  • Easy installation
  • Freewheeling function

FEATURES

Exceptionally smooth operation

To ensure exceptionally smooth operation, the C800 Series locks with lever trim incorporate a cast stainless steel retractor combined with roller bearings. This design provides both extremely high strength and an extended service life for the lock mechanism.

Easy installation

DORMA C800 Series locksets are easy to install in both wood and hollow metal doors with ANSI/BHMA Standard A156.115 preparations for cylindrical locks.

Freewheeling function

All C800 Series operating lever trim features a specially designed freewheeling function to protect the lock from damage caused by excessive torque applied to the lever handles. When locked, the outside lever handle will move freely through a 60° arc without operating the latch bolt. This free movement minimizes the opportunity for damage to the lock mechanism.

Dormakaba C885 D LRC 626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Dorma C885 lever lockset fit a 1-3/8 inch wood door and a 1-3/4 inch hollow metal door?
Both work. The C885 covers a door thickness range of 1-3/8 inches to 2-1/4 inches, so it spans older 1-3/8 inch interior wood doors and the standard 1-3/4 inch commercial door without a thickness kit. It installs in wood and hollow metal doors using ANSI/BHMA A156.115 cylindrical lock preparation.
2) What does the Dorma C885 faculty restroom/hotel function actually do at the door?
It is a single-cylinder lock for a restroom or a hotel-style room where you want the occupant to secure the door from inside and staff to get in with a key. Outside is keyed; there is no second cylinder to key. Dormakaba lists it as ANSI/BHMA function F93, so if a spec or drawing calls for F93, the C885 is the model that matches.
3) Will the Dorma C885 latch into the strike already in my frame?
It ships with a 10252 latch on a 2-3/4 inch backset, 1-1/8 x 2-1/4 inch front, 1 inch diameter, square corner, and a 5001-1316 ANSI strike with dustbox, 1-1/4 x 4-7/8 inches, 1-3/16 inch lip. If your frame already has the standard 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike cutout, the included strike drops straight in. A frame prepped for a small 2-3/4 inch T-strike will need filling or a new frame prep, since the latch front here is square corner and the backset is fixed at 2-3/4, not 2-3/8.
4) Do I have to specify handing when I order a Dorma C885 lever lock?
It depends on which lever you pick. Five of the lever styles (LC, LG, LR, LT) are handing-neutral as ordered, but the LV lever is handed and must be ordered either left handed or right handed. So handing only enters the order if you want the LV lever; get it wrong there and the lever points the wrong way on the door.
5) Can I order the Dorma C885 less core to key it into my existing master key system?
Yes, three of the four cylinder options come less core so your locksmith pins it to the building system: J for small format interchangeable core, R for Schlage large format interchangeable core, and L for a conventional cylinder less core. If you do not have a system to match, order D, which is a conventional cylinder in SC keyway with two keys included.
6) What is the closest mechanical alternative to a Dorma C885 faculty restroom lever lock from another brand?
The Dorma C885 is a Grade 1 keyed cylindrical lever lockset in the faculty/hotel/restroom function, keyed on a single cylinder. The nearest mechanical Grade 1 lever locksets in the set are the Marks USA 195RAB Survivor Series entry clutched lever, which is Grade 1 in the entrance/office function and ships less core, and the Marks USA 195N Survivor Series passage lever, which is Grade 1 in the passage/hall/closet function with an American lever. Both are Grade 1 cylindrical levers like the C885, but neither carries the faculty/hotel/restroom function: the 195RAB is entrance/office and the 195N has no keying at all. If the opening needs an occupant to secure the restroom from inside with a key override outside, the C885 function is the one that does it; the Marks levers cover adjacent openings on the same door prep.
7) Which cylindrical lever lock should I use instead of a Dorma C885 on a restroom that does not need a key?
The C885 is keyed with a single cylinder in the faculty/hotel/restroom function, so every opening gets a cylinder whether or not staff will use it. For a restroom that needs only occupant privacy, the Cal-Royal CAL20 Calypso Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty privacy lock in the privacy/bed/bath function fitting doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Orca Hardware OCL240 is a Grade 2 medium duty privacy cylindrical lockset. The CAL20 matches the C885 at Grade 1 and covers most of the same door thickness span, since the C885 fits 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches. The trade is that a privacy lock has a thumbturn and emergency release rather than a keyed outside cylinder, so maintenance opens it with a tool instead of a key.
8) Can I put an electronic keypad lock in the same door prep as a Dorma C885?
The C885 installs to the ANSI/BHMA A156.115 cylindrical prep with a 2-3/4 inch backset latch and an ANSI strike measuring 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inches with a 1-3/16 inch lip. Grade 1 electronic cylindrical locks in the same family include the Schlage NDEB ENGAGE Series wireless lock, which is heavy duty Grade 1 for doors 1-5/8 to 2 inches, the TownSteel XCE-2000 Series keypad lockset, heavy duty Grade 1 in the classroom function for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches, and the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700, Grade 1 for doors 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inches. The gap to watch is door thickness: the C885 covers 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches, and each of those electronic locks covers a narrower band, so a thin 1-3/8 inch wood door that takes the C885 falls outside all three.
9) I need small format interchangeable core on a restroom lock. What are my options besides the Dorma C885?
The C885 is available in a J cylinder option that is SFIC less core, along with an R option for Schlage LFIC less core, an L conventional cylinder less core, and a D conventional cylinder with SC keyway and two keys. If the SFIC requirement is the driver, the Marks USA 175RF is a Grade 2 storeroom clutched lever with small format IC shipped less core on a 2-3/4 inch backset with an ANSI strike, and the Alarm Lock Trilogy T2 DL2700 is a Grade 1 standalone electronic entrance lock that is IC/SFIC compatible. The 175RF matches the C885 backset but is a storeroom function, and the DL2700 adds a digital keypad with 100 user codes on top of the core. The C885 is the one of the three that combines SFIC prep with the faculty/hotel/restroom function.
10) What rose and lever combinations do I pick to match the other doors in the building?
Four choices to settle on the order: lever style (LC, LG, LR, LT or the handed LV), rose (C rose 3-1/2 inch diameter, E stepped rose 3-1/2 inch, or D rose 3-1/2 inch stamped LOCK), cylinder, and finish. Eight finishes are offered: 605 bright brass, 606 satin brass, 612 satin bronze, 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, 625 bright chrome, 626 satin chrome. For restrooms, the D rose stamped LOCK is the one to use when you want the occupant to see what the button does.
11) Should I use a keyed restroom lock like the Dorma C885 or a plain privacy lock with no key?
Pick on whether staff need key access. The C885 is keyed on the outside with a single cylinder, so housekeeping or maintenance can open an occupied or jammed restroom with a key instead of a coin slot or emergency tool. A straight privacy function has no cylinder at all. If no key access is wanted, the Cal-Royal CAL20 is a Grade 1 privacy/bed/bath lock fitting 1-3/8 to 2 inch doors, and the Orca OCL240 is a Grade 2 medium duty privacy lockset. Note the Orca is Grade 2, so it is a lighter-traffic choice than the Grade 1 C885.
12) What is a comparable Grade 1 cylindrical lever lock to the Dorma C885 from another brand?
Among cylindrical lever locksets, the Marks USA 195 Survivor Series is the closest mechanical Grade 1 family: the 195RAB is a Grade 1 entrance clutched lever, less core, and the 195N is a Grade 1 passage lever described as ADA compliant. Those are entrance and passage functions, not the restroom/hotel F93 function the C885 performs, so they substitute on duty level and lever format, not on function. If you need the restroom function specifically, stay with the C885.
13) I want keypad or electronic access on a restroom or dorm door instead of a key. What should I look at instead of the Dorma C885?
The C885 is fully mechanical with a key cylinder, no electronics. For coded or credential access on the same cylindrical prep, ZenSupply carries the Alarm Lock Trilogy 4100, a Grade 1 electronic cylindrical lock with a privacy function and keypad for 1-5/8 to 1-7/8 inch doors, and the Schlage CO-100, a Grade 1 standalone electronic cylindrical lock with privacy function and keypad for 1-3/4 inch doors. Watch the thickness: both are narrower in range than the C885, so a 1-3/8 inch or 2-1/4 inch door rules them out.
14) Does the Dorma C885 come with the latch and strike, or do I order those separately?
Both are included as standard: the 10252 latch on a 2-3/4 inch backset and the 5001-1316 ANSI strike with dustbox. What you add depends on the cylinder code you choose. Order D and two SC keyway keys come with it. Order J, L or R and the lock arrives less core, so you supply the SFIC, conventional or Schlage LFIC core and have it keyed.
15) What do I order alongside a Dorma C885 for the passage and dummy doors in the same restroom suite?
The C885 handles the keyed faculty/hotel/restroom opening itself. For the unkeyed doors in the same run, the Marks USA 195N is a Grade 1 Survivor Series passage lever with an American lever and is ADA compliant, the Cal-Royal CAL30 Calypso Series is a Grade 1 extra heavy duty passage lockset for doors 1-3/8 to 2 inches, and the Orca OCL2170 is a Grade 2 half dummy lever for a door leaf that never latches. The 195N and CAL30 hold the same Grade 1 rating as the C885, which keeps a facility standardizing on one grade across an entire corridor rather than mixing duty levels behind the same finish.
16) What is the difference between the Dorma C885 and a classroom-function cylindrical lock?
Function is the whole difference, and it decides which side controls the door. The C885 is the faculty/hotel/restroom function, keyed with a single cylinder, which lets the occupant secure the door from the inside while the outside key still admits staff. Classroom-function cylindrical locks in the same Grade 1 heavy duty range include the TownSteel FCE-2000 Series motorized RFID lockset and the XCE-9000 Series intruder lockset with keypad, both Grade 1 heavy duty classroom function, and the Schlage XE360M wireless tubular lock, Grade 1 in the classroom/storeroom function for 1-3/4 inch doors. A classroom function is locked and unlocked from outside by credential and leaves the inside always free; the C885 puts that control on the inside of the room. For a restroom or a hotel guest room, the C885 function is the correct call.
17) Which lock works on a 1-3/8 inch door if the Dorma C885 is not available in the finish I need?
The C885 covers doors 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inches, the widest span among the Grade 1 cylindrical levers in its range, and it comes in eight finishes from 605 bright brass and 606 satin brass through 613 oil rubbed bronze, 619 satin nickel, 622 matte black, and 626 satin chrome. On a thin 1-3/8 inch door, the Cal-Royal CAL20 privacy and CAL30 passage locksets both fit 1-3/8 to 2 inches at Grade 1, and the Lockey 1600 and 2830 mechanical keyless knob locks go down to 1-1/8 inches. Note the Lockey units are knob trim rather than lever, so an opening on an ADA path needs a lever product like the C885 or the Cal-Royal levers.
18) How does the Dorma C885 compare to a Stanley QCL cylindrical lock for a commercial opening?
Both are cylindrical locksets that take the standard ANSI prep, and they separate on grade and function. The C885 is Grade 1 in the faculty/hotel/restroom function on a 2-3/4 inch backset with a 1-1/4 by 4-7/8 inch ANSI strike. The Stanley QCL200 is a cylindrical lock keyed different in the SC keyway with a 118F ANSI 1-1/8 by 2-3/4 inch strike, and the Stanley QCL150 is a Grade 2 entry lever with a Sierra bent lever and rose, less cylinder, on a 2-3/4 inch square backset with a 4-7/8 by 1-1/4 inch ASA strike. The QCL150 shares the C885 backset and strike size, so it swaps into the same frame prep, while the QCL200 uses the smaller 118F strike and would need a different frame cutout. For SC keyway keying, the C885 D cylinder option also ships SC keyway with two keys.
19) Can I standardize a whole floor on the C800 Series and still use different functions on different doors?
Yes, that is how the C800 Series is set up. The C885 handles the faculty, hotel and restroom function, and the series shares one high performance cylindrical chassis across its models with the same A156.115 door prep, so the levers, roses and finishes carry across the openings while the function changes by model. Keep the lever, rose and finish codes consistent on the order and the floor matches even where the lock function does not.
20) Does an access-controlled electric lock replace a Dorma C885 on a restroom door?
Only if the opening is being tied into a system, and the door has to suit it. The C885 is a standalone mechanical Grade 1 lever with a conventional or interchangeable cylinder and no power requirement. The SDC Electra 7200 Series is a solenoid controlled cylindrical lock running dual voltage 12/24VDC for doors 1-3/4 to 2 inches, and the SDC E75 Series is a battery powered electronic cylindrical lockset with keypad access control for doors 1-3/4 to 2-1/8 inches. The 7200 needs power run to the door and a controller behind it; the E75 runs on batteries at the lock. Both start at 1-3/4 inch doors, so the 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 inch range the C885 accepts is not fully covered by either.
21) Is a knob lockset a valid swap for the Dorma C885 lever?
Not on an accessible opening. The C885 uses lever trim, offered in LC, LG, LR, LT and LV lever styles on C, D or E rose. Knob products in the same cylindrical family include the Marks USA 110AB entry knob lockset, Grade 2 in the entrance/office function with a round knob on a 2-3/8 inch backset in satin stainless steel, and the Lockey 1600 and 2830 mechanical keyless knob locks. The 110AB also uses a 2-3/8 inch backset against the C885 2-3/4 inch, which means a different bore centerline in the door edge. Where the specification calls for a lever, the Marks USA 195N is a Grade 1 lever lockset stated ADA compliant.
