Dormakaba 54444-26D-01 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Dormakaba 54444 latchbolt work in a door bored for a 2-3/8 inch backset, or do I need a different part for 2-3/4?
One part covers both. The Dormakaba 54444 latchbolt is adjustable across 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets, so the same latch drops into either door prep. Those are the two standard backsets used on commercial and residential bored locks, which means you can stock a single latch for a mixed building instead of splitting your shelf between two part numbers.
2) Is the Dormakaba 54444 a complete lock or just the latch?
Latch only. The 54444 is a replacement latchbolt component for compatible Dormakaba mechanical lock assemblies, not a lockset. You reuse the existing chassis, lever or knob trim, cylinder and strike, and swap only the latch that runs into the edge bore. If the chassis itself is worn or the trim is damaged, that gets ordered separately.
3) What is an equivalent adjustable-backset latch to the Dormakaba 54444 if I need a drive-in style instead of a faceplate latch?
The Dormakaba 54444 is an adjustable latchbolt covering 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets in a 626 satin chrome finish, supplied as a genuine Dormakaba replacement part for compatible Dormakaba mechanical locks. If the door is bored without a faceplate mortise, the Deltana DLP23875 is a drive-in latch with the same adjustable 2-3/8 inch or 2-3/4 inch backset range, rated for a passage or privacy function and a 1-3/8 inch to 2 inch door thickness. The DLP23875 is a Deltana part, so it is a substitution rather than a Dormakaba-specified component.
4) Is there a fire-rated latch alternative to the Dormakaba 54444?
For a rated opening, the Kwikset 83521 RCAL plain latch is a UL 3 hour latch that fits Kwikset BBL, KNL, CNL and PLL lock bodies, and the Kwikset 83518 RCAL adjustable square drive latch is also a UL 3 hour part. Both are Kwikset components and match Kwikset lock bodies, so they are not drop-ins for a Dormakaba mechanical lock. The Dormakaba 54444 is the genuine Dormakaba replacement latchbolt, adjustable across 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch backsets.
5) What finish does the Dormakaba 54444 latchbolt come in, and will it match my other door hardware?
Satin Chrome, finish code 626, is the only finish offered on the 54444. That is the standard commercial satin chrome used across most institutional lever and cylindrical hardware, so the visible latch face will match satin chrome levers and strikes on adjacent openings. If your building is standardized on satin stainless or brass, the exposed faceplate will read slightly different in tone.
6) I manage several commercial buildings with Dormakaba locks. Can I standardize on the 54444 as a maintenance stock item?
That is what it is built for. Because the backset adjusts between 2-3/8 and 2-3/4 inches, a single 54444 covers doors prepped either way, which cuts the number of latch SKUs a maintenance crew has to carry. It is a commercial-grade part for compatible Dormakaba mechanical locks, and it is used across office, education, healthcare, retail, industrial, multi-tenant residential and government facilities.
7) I need an adjustable latch for a fire rated opening. Is the Dormakaba 54444 the right choice?
For a latch where a UL fire rating is the deciding factor, look at the Kwikset 83518 RCAL adjustable square drive latch, which is listed as UL 3 hour, or the Kwikset 84290 square corner plainlatch at 2-3/8 inch backset, also UL listed. Fire rated openings are governed by the listing on the complete door and hardware assembly, so match the latch to what the door's label calls for.
8) If my door prep is fixed at 2-3/8 inch backset, do I still need an adjustable latch?
No. The Dormakaba 54444 is adjustable so one part covers both 2-3/8 inch and 2-3/4 inch preps, which is useful when a property manager is stocking for mixed doors. For a single known prep, the Kwikset 84290 is a square corner plain latch built at a fixed 2-3/8 inch backset and UL listed. The 84290 is a Kwikset part and suits Kwikset lock bodies, while the 54444 is the component specified for compatible Dormakaba mechanical locks.
9) Will an Emtek 83228 or LC9-DBLTCH work in place of the Dormakaba 54444?
Neither is a substitute. The Emtek 83228 is a faceplate and screws kit with square corners for a tubular pocket door privacy latch, so it is trim hardware rather than a latch mechanism. The Emtek LC9-DBLTCH is a motorized deadbolt latch in the EMPowered series, a powered deadbolt component, not a spring latchbolt. The Dormakaba 54444 is the adjustable latchbolt itself, covering 2-3/8 inch to 2-3/4 inch backsets for compatible Dormakaba mechanical locks.
10) Is the Dormakaba 54444 latchbolt a genuine OEM part or an aftermarket copy?
Genuine Dormakaba, manufactured to the original specification, which is why it seats and functions the same as the latch it replaces in a compatible Dormakaba lock. Specifiers who need an OEM-equivalent component for a maintenance contract can cite it as such.
