Dorma YR03R Wide Stile Exit Device Lever Trim, Escutcheon with R Lever Trim, Nightlatch Function, Less Cylinder

The YR03R escutcheon lever trim mounts to the Dorma 9100, F9100, 9300, F9300, 9400 and F9400 exit devices. That covers the rim, surface vertical rod and concealed vertical rod versions of those devices, so the same trim carries across a mixed set of openings as long as the device is one of those six model numbers. If your device is an older Dorma series outside that list, this is not the trim for it.

Nightlatch means the outside lever is always locked until a key releases it. Turn the key, the lever retracts the latch and you get in; the key only comes back out when the door is left locked. Push side is unaffected, free egress at all times through the touchbar. This is the function you want on a back door, service entrance or stair door where staff carry keys and the public never gets in from outside. If you want the lever to stay unlocked all day, a passage or entry trim is the wrong-way-around choice here, not this one.

Less cylinder. The YR03R ships without one, so you supply the mortise cylinder to match your keying. That is deliberate on a nightlatch trim: the key is the only thing that unlocks the lever, so most buyers key it into an existing system rather than take a random keyway. Order a mortise cylinder in your facility's keyway with the cam the device requires, and specify the same keying across all the openings you are trimming out if you want one key to run them.

Handing matters here. The YR03R is ordered as either LHR (left hand reverse) or RHR (right hand reverse), and it is not field reversible in the way some competitor trims are. Stand outside the door: if the hinges are on your right and the door pulls toward you, that is right hand reverse. Get it wrong and the lever points uphill. Exit devices are always reverse-bevel openings, which is why only the two reverse handings exist on this trim.

The escutcheon base measures 8-1/2 x 2-3/4 inches and the assembly projects 3-1/2 inches off the face of the door. The 2-3/4 inch base width is the number that decides it on an aluminum storefront: this is a wide stile trim and it will overhang a narrow stile door, so check your stile face before you commit. The 3-1/2 inch projection also matters in a tight vestibule or where the door swings past a return wall or an adjacent leaf.

Trim is device-specific, so the brand of the device decides the trim. If your openings are Sargent, the 704ET night latch lever trim covers the 700 Series and the 744 covers 8700 and 8900 surface vertical rod and mortise devices, both Grade 1. Corbin Russwin ED5000 Series devices take the VT957ET nightlatch escutcheon trim, also supplied less cylinder. On Von Duprin, the 110MD-NL night latch cylinder assembly serves 22, 55 and 98/99 devices, though that is a cylinder assembly rather than a lever. The Dorma YR03R only goes on 9100, 9300 and 9400 family devices.

No. The YR03R is keyed nightlatch only, so the outside lever never stays free. For a door that should be open to the public during the day and locked after, look at a passage or classroom trim instead: Corbin Russwin's 3310AET is passage function for ED3000 devices, the x910ET is passage for ED5200/5400/5800, and Falcon's 510L is a heavy duty classroom trim for 24 and 25 Series devices. For scheduled locking under an access control panel, Command Access ET15, ET25 and ET26 are electrified exit trims with 12V/24V operation and fail safe or fail secure selection.

The Dorma YR03R is wide stile trim with an 8-1/2 inch by 2-3/4 inch escutcheon base, which needs stile width to land on. For narrow stile openings, BEST offers the 2901 narrow stile exit only lever trim and the 2001 narrow stile exit only pull trim with a cover plate, both for 2000 Series devices; BEST's wide stile counterparts are the 4901 lever trim and the 1701 pull trim. Note that the BEST narrow stile options are exit only function, so they do not provide keyed outside entry the way the YR03R does - measure the stile first, because that decides the trim family before function does.

The Corbin Russwin VT957ET is the nearest match in concept: a nightlatch escutcheon trim in stainless steel, built for the ED5000 Series exit devices. The Dorma YR03R is also a nightlatch escutcheon trim with an R lever, supplied less cylinder, and it mounts to Dorma 9100, F9100, 9300, F9300, 9400 and F9400 devices. Both give entry by lever only once a key releases the latch, so the substitution holds on function; the difference is the device family each one bolts to, so confirm which exit device is on the door before ordering either.

Sargent offers two night latch lever trims in this class. The 704ET is a night latch lever exit device trim with field reversible operation, Grade 1 and heavy duty, for the Sargent 700 Series. The 704-ETL is a night latch lever trim with a key retract function for the PE Series, also Grade 1 and heavy duty. The Dorma YR03R performs the same night latch function - entrance by lever only when released by key, key removable only when locked - on Dorma 9100, 9300 and 9400 series devices, including their F-rated versions. Handing is the practical difference in ordering: the YR03R is ordered as LHR or RHR, while the 704ET is field reversible.

Passage trim is the part for that, and it takes the cylinder out of the equation. Corbin Russwin offers passage function trims across three device families: the 3310AET for the ED300 Series, the x810ET for the ED4000 Series, and the x910ET for the ED5200S/ED5200/ED5400/ED5800 Series. Arrow's SRX01 is a passage function trim with a Sierra lever on a rose for ED910, S1150 and S1250 devices. The Dorma YR03R is a night latch trim instead, so the lever only retracts the latch after a key releases it. Match the passage trim to the exit device family already installed.

That calls for an electrified exit trim. Command Access offers the ET15, ET25 and ET26 electrified exit trims with 12V and 24V operation and fail safe or fail secure options, the ET26 in Grade 1 with a field reversible design, plus the 230L electrified trim for V96/36/23 Series devices. Von Duprin's E360L-BE-03 is a Grade 1 electric passage trim with an 03 lever, fail safe, for 33/35A Series devices, and Falcon's 510L-FSA/FSE is a heavy duty electrified lever trim for 25 Series devices. The Dorma YR03R is purely mechanical night latch trim - entry by lever only after a key releases it - so it cannot be switched remotely.

The YR03R uses a heavy-duty vandal-resistant escutcheon in stainless steel, which is the construction you want on an exterior door where someone will hang off the lever. ANSI function 08 is the nightlatch designation, so the lever is dead until keyed, meaning a yank on a locked lever is not transmitting force into a working retractor. Stainless also survives coastal and pool-chemical exposure better than a plated steel escutcheon.

The application list includes the F9100, F9300 and F9400 devices, which are the fire rated versions of the Dorma 9000 family, and the same YR03R trim serves them alongside the non-fire 9100, 9300 and 9400. One thing a fire opening changes about your order: fire rated exit devices are never dogged, so the door latches every cycle and the key-retract nightlatch function is exactly how staff get back in.

Yes, and that is the practical argument for it. The YR03R serves rim, surface vertical rod and concealed vertical rod devices across the 9100, 9300 and 9400 families, fire rated versions included. So a pair of doors on vertical rods and a single rim door down the hall take the same trim part number, the same 689 or 693 finish, and the same keyway. All you vary per opening is handing, LHR or RHR.

Not for the same opening. A pull trim gives you a grab handle, not a latch-retracting lever. The Tell EDPT is an exit device pull trim with a cylinder hole, supplied less cylinder, and the Design Hardware 2P-03NL is a Grade 1 pull trim with a cylinder hole in night latch form for the 1000R and 2000R devices. BEST offers exit only pull trims as well: the 1701 in wide stile for 2000 Series devices and the 2001 in narrow stile with a cover plate. The Dorma YR03R is a raised escutcheon with an R lever and an 8-1/2 inch by 2-3/4 inch base, 3-1/2 inch projection, so the user turns a lever rather than pulling a handle. Choose pull trim when the outside side is meant to be pull-only, and lever trim when the opening needs a lever throw.

Both keep the outside lever from opening the door on its own, but the key behaves differently. On the Dorma YR03R the lever works only when the key releases it, and the key is removable only when the door is locked again. Storeroom trims in the same class include the Tell EDELT80 escutcheon lever trim, the Design Hardware KIL storeroom trim with a Schlage C keyway and flat lever for 1000 and 2000 Series devices, the Pamex E9000 with an L3 lever for 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch doors, and the Marks USA M195F, which uses a lever on spring loaded roses for M9900 touchbar devices. If you want an escutcheon plate rather than roses, the YR03R, EDELT80 and KIL storeroom are the escutcheon and plate-style choices.

No, and the distinction matters before you order. The Detex 02BN is a dummy S-lever trim with a blank escutcheon for Value Series devices, the Von Duprin 230DT is a dummy trim with a heavy duty 10 gauge steel escutcheon for 22 Series, the Falcon 212L is a blank escutcheon lever trim for 20 Series devices, and the Dexter ED1500T-DUMM-PULL is a dummy function trim with a handle pull plate. None of those retract a latch - they dress the outside face. The Dorma YR03R is working trim: the lever opens the door once a key has released it, and it ships less cylinder so the cylinder is ordered separately. Use dummy trim only where the outside side is never meant to open the door.

Classroom trim keys the outside lever so it can be left locked or unlocked, rather than requiring the key each time. Falcon's 510L is a heavy duty classroom function lever trim for 24/25 Series devices, and the 179L is a medium duty classroom lever control trim for the 1790 Series. Accentra's 446F is a Grade 1 classroom function trim with an Augusta lever, and the Dexter ED1000T-CLRM-TP-NC is a Grade 1 classroom trim with a thumbpiece and pull plate, supplied less cylinder. The Dorma YR03R is night latch instead: the lever grants entry only when a key releases it. Both the YR03R and the Dexter classroom trim ship less cylinder, so order the cylinder to your keyway either way.

Several nightlatch trims use a rose or pull rather than a full raised plate. Accentra's 121NL is an exit device nightlatch trim, and the 441F is a night latch keyed lever trim with the Augusta design. Dexter's ED1500T-PULL-NC is a Grade 1 nightlatch function trim with a raised lip pull plate. Von Duprin's 110MD-NL is a night latch cylinder assembly trim for metal and wood doors, Grade 1 and heavy duty, for 22, 55 and 98/99 devices - that one is a cylinder assembly with no outside lever at all. The Dorma YR03R is the full raised escutcheon version: an 8-1/2 inch by 2-3/4 inch plate with a 3-1/2 inch projection and an R lever, vandal-resistant and stainless steel standard. The larger plate covers more of the door face, which matters when you are replacing trim over existing prep.

Two: 689 aluminum painted and 693 black. Both are offered in left hand reverse and right hand reverse. On an aluminum storefront 689 is the usual match to a clear anodized frame; 693 goes with dark bronze or black anodized. The escutcheon itself is stainless steel underneath, which is what keeps a painted exterior trim from blistering with rust at the fixing points on a weather-exposed door.

Functionally it is a step in a different direction. The Von Duprin 210K-BE is a knob trim with a blank escutcheon for 22 Series devices, Grade 1 and heavy duty - a knob on a blank plate. The Dorma YR03R is a raised escutcheon with an R lever, which is the lever-operated form and is the shape institutional specs usually want on accessible openings. Going from knob to lever changes the device family as well, since the YR03R mounts to Dorma 9100, 9300 and 9400 series devices; verify the device before treating it as a replacement.

Yes, lever design varies by maker. Delaney's 500L comes in three lever styles - CT, MD and SD - all in entrance function. Tell's EDELT53 is a keyed entry escutcheon lever trim for 1-3/8 inch to 1-3/4 inch doors, and the EDTHP53 is the thumbpiece version of the same entry function. Design Hardware's LE08 is a Grade 1 entry function trim with a flat lever and escutcheon for 1000R and 2000R devices, and the KIL entry trim uses a flat lever with a Schlage C keyway. The Dorma YR03R carries the rectangular R lever on a raised escutcheon and follows ANSI function 08. Lever shape is the visible part; the device family it mounts to still has to match.

The Dorma YR03R is offered in 689 aluminum painted and 693 black, each in left hand reverse and right hand reverse. Among the comparable trims, the Tell escutcheon and pull trims - EDELT53, EDELT80 and the EDPT pull trim - are catalogued in 26D, and the Design Hardware 2P-03NL pull trim in 32D. If the other doors on the opening are painted aluminum or black rather than satin chrome, the YR03R finishes match that appearance directly, which is the usual reason property managers standardize on it across a building.
