Dormakaba 201768-000-01 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What exactly is the Dormakaba 201768-000-01 part?
It's a clutch balance spring, a small internal spring that keeps proper tension and balance on the clutch inside a Dormakaba commercial mechanical lock. It is a genuine Dormakaba replacement part carrying model number 201768-000-01, not a complete lock or trim assembly, so order it only when the clutch mechanism itself is the thing being rebuilt.
2) My Dormakaba lever feels loose or spins without retracting the latch. Is this the spring to order?
That symptom points at the clutch, and the 201768-000-01 is the balance spring inside that clutch mechanism on Dormakaba mechanical locks. Before ordering, pull the lock and confirm the spring is the failed piece rather than the clutch body, spindle, or lever cap, because the spring on its own won't fix a worn clutch or a sheared spindle.
3) Can I use a generic spring or another brand's spindle kit instead of the Dormakaba 201768-000-01?
No. A clutch balance spring is dimension- and tension-specific to the clutch it sits in, and the 201768-000-01 is the Dormakaba OEM piece for that assembly. Cross-brand parts like the Corbin Russwin Swivel Spindle Pin x Set Screw serve a different mechanism on Corbin Russwin locks and are not a substitute inside a Dormakaba clutch.
4) Can a Corbin Russwin swivel spindle pin and set screw be used in place of the Dormakaba 201768-000-01 clutch balance spring?
No. The Dormakaba 201768-000-01 is a clutch balance spring, a genuine OEM replacement part that maintains spring tension and clutch balance inside compatible Dormakaba commercial mechanical lock assemblies. The Corbin Russwin Swivel Spindle Pin X Set Screw is a pin and screw that retains a spindle, and it is specified for 1-3/4 inch doors. Different function, different manufacturer platform - one holds a spindle in place, the other provides clutch spring tension, so they are not interchangeable.
5) How do I order the right spring so I get the correct one?
Order by the Dormakaba part number 201768-000-01. That number is the only identifier that pins down this clutch balance spring; there is a single orderable configuration, with no finish, hand, or size options to specify.
6) I am rebuilding a lever lock and the lever feels loose - do I need the Dormakaba 201768-000-01 spring or a spindle pin and set screw?
It depends on where the play is. If the lever turns but the retractor does not pick up consistently, the clutch spring is the part in question, and the Dormakaba 201768-000-01 clutch balance spring is the genuine OEM component for that job in compatible Dormakaba commercial mechanical locks. If the lever itself wobbles on the spindle or pulls away from the rose, that is a spindle retention issue, and a part such as the Corbin Russwin Swivel Spindle Pin X Set Screw, rated for 1-3/4 inch doors, addresses that on Corbin Russwin hardware. Match the part to the manufacturer of the lock you have opened up.
7) Is the Dormakaba 201768-000-01 tied to a door thickness the way a spindle pin kit is?
No. The 201768-000-01 clutch balance spring sits inside the lock chassis, so it is selected by Dormakaba lock platform rather than by door thickness. Spindle retention hardware is the opposite case - the Corbin Russwin Swivel Spindle Pin X Set Screw, for example, is specified for a 1-3/4 inch door because spindle length has to match the door. When ordering the 201768-000-01, confirm the Dormakaba lock model it is going into, not the door slab.
8) Is this spring rated for commercial door traffic or is it a residential part?
Commercial. The 201768-000-01 is catalogued for commercial mechanical lock service and is sold as part of the Dormakaba parts program used in offices, schools, hospitals, retail, warehouses, multi-tenant residential and government buildings.
9) We standardize lock parts across a large facility. Is this a stock item to keep on the shelf?
It's a common candidate for an MRO shelf if your buildings run Dormakaba mechanical locksets, since the clutch balance spring is a wear item inside the lever clutch and a single part number, 201768-000-01, covers it. Match the spring to the specific Dormakaba lock series in your doors first, then stock quantity by how many of those openings you maintain.
